Call Him Mr. Glass

As I pointed out on September 29, we need a workhorse every-down running back and Felix Jones, who I referred to as Mr. Glass in that post only proved what I said all along. Jones has been placed in a walking boot this week and is expected to be out anywhere from two to four weeks according to David Moore of the Dallas Morning News. Jones suffered a high ankle sprain in the second quarter [...]

Going For The Kill

jerry3

Anybody who knows me personally, understand my outlook on football and baseball; GO FOR THE KILL NO MATTER THE SCORE! My buddies and I also refer to it as PLAYING FOR BLOOD! I have long killed the Cowboys for this basic lack of KILLER instinct. For the better part of the decade this ultimate level of competitiveness has been widely unseen. And that explains all the late game and late season collapses. Only The Strong Survive! [...]

Things May Look Bleak For America’s Team, But There’s Still Hope

Cowboys Helmet

Many fans question just what it means when analysts refer to a professional sports team as “America’s Team.” This is a label that at different times has been placed on different teams. However, it is perhaps most closely associated with the Dallas Cowboys. Basically, this means that the Cowboys are the most beloved team in the country, or at least have been at times. While most teams have fans primarily within their own home cities, [...]

Robinson Always Wanted To Be A Cowboy

Laurent Robinson

Brandon George of Dallas News writes that wide receiver Laurent Robinson has admitted that he’s always wanted to play for the Cowboys. Robinson is quickly gaining popularity among the fan base especially after his big day last Sunday when he caught seven catches for a career-high 116 yards in the Cowboys’ 34-30 loss. George quotes Robinson’s mother Linda Brown, who said her son called her after his visit to Dallas while still with the Chargers. “He said, [...]

Romo Named NFC Offensive Player of the Week

For the fifth time in his career and the first time in nearly four years, Tony Romo was named  the NFC’s Offensive Player of the Week. Romo led the Cowboys to a thrilling comeback victory last  Sunday against the 40ers with an impressive 345 yard- two touchdown performance. What made last weekend’s performance all the more impressive was how Romo came back from a punctured lung and broken rib to win the game 27-24 in overtime. For the Cowboys, [...]

The Cowboys Reflect On 9/11

What an emotionally charged evening it will be tonight when the Cowboys take on the New York Jets on the tenth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. DallasCowboys.com had a nice tribute piece compete with video that is definitely worth a look. They also have four narratives from current Cowboys who were very close to the events of that fateful day. Here are two of them. Jesse Holley, Roselle, N.J. “I was at school [...]

Getting Up To Speed

If you’re like me, the last off season has been worrisome with the lock-out, not knowing what changes to expect or even if there would be a season this year.  I have to admit, I have stayed away from writing about the Boys because I didn’t want to come across as cold or unconcerned about this season…the truth is, I was mad about it.  We all know that the NFL is a money making machine [...]

NFL Labor Talks Almost Blow Up

I hope everyone enjoyed their Fathers Day weekend. Here is something that some of you may have missed. After what seemed like some significant progress regarding negotiations to end the NFL lockout, word has it that they came very close to blowing up again. Two weeks ago, as I reported here on LSS, there were some secret meetings taken place, reportedly without any lawyers present – just the player representatives and owners. The Washington Post reported that a framework to an agreement [...]

Not So Secret Meeting Brings Players and Owners Back To Bargaining Table

It’s been a difficult offseason for Cowboys fans this year, mostly because of the ongoing lockout. The Cowboys news has been so sparse that most blogs will post just about anything including Felix Jones’ favorite Ninja Turtle (Donatello), Tony Romo’s choice of cake for his wedding, J-Rat’s new diamond studded toothbrush, Dez and his attempted jewel heist, and the world’s largest scoreboard getting a tune-up. Well – maybe the days of rehashing the same old and [...]
