Sean Lee, a Pittsburgh native, has gone from rooting against the Dallas Cowboys to wearing the Blue and Silver, and getting private tutoring in rookie mini-camp as he is the only linebacker in camp. In a recent interview Lee admitted being from Pittsburgh there was no option but to root against them. ” I’m trying to recruit as many Cowboys fans as I can. As soon as I got the call from Mr. Jones, we went out [...]

According to ESPN.com, the Dallas Cowboys and St. Louis rams have made it official and the rumored swap of linebacker Bobby Carpenter for offensive tackle Alex Barron is now a done deal. Carpenter was the 18th pick of the 2006 draft for the Cowboys and was a big favorite of former Cowboys coach Bill Parcells. However, he never lived up to his top billing and many Cowboys fans had soured on him over the years, [...]

Draft day has passed and now we’re in that magical time when nothing happens, well big newsworthy. So you have to be quick to comment on it before it gets old. Well, I didn’t and it shows. This installment of FMC’s Offseason Rants was nothing more then me rehashing and talking about old news. I do however wish that I got into the release of JaMarcus Russell. The second all time worst draft pick in [...]

Boys Will Be Boys According to Rotoworld, the Rams and Cowboys are reportedly discussing a swap of OT Alex Barron for LB Bobby Carpenter. Both players have been first-round disappointments and are known to be on the trading block. The Cowboys believe that second-round selection LB Sean Lee is ready to step into Carpenter’s role. The only thing standing in the way is working out the contractual kinks, but a deal can be announced as soon as [...]

Carpenter for Barron deal being hammered out.

Two words come to mind when I think about how the 2010 NFL Draft played out for the Cowboys. The first word is predictability. It turns out that the best barometer for predicting Dallas’ draft picks was not the numerous mock drafts put out by quacks like Mel Kiper and Todd McShay, but the pre-draft visits conducted by the Cowboys prior to the draft. If you paid attention to the players that were brought in [...]

The entire world has changed since social media took over the internet. It has brought a sense of reality that everyone really is human. I think in the beginning even I got excited to know that I was friends with a famous football player, or at least I thought it was him. Who really knows who is running the page, maybe an agent or a media manager? Heck, it could even be a cousin or [...]

Dez Bryant, OSU, #1 draft pick

As reported by ProFootballTalk.com, the Cowboys have expressed interest in Darren Sharper the free agent safety who played for the Saints in 2009. Sharper is visiting Jacksonville today and could be headed to Dallas next. I believe this would be a big signing for the Cowboys as well as their defense since they released Ken Hamlin a few weeks ago. Sharper can be that one big free agent signing like Keith Brooking was last season. He will [...]

Do you believe in superstitions? Do you believe that what you say or do will make a difference? Can you lead your team to victory by sitting a certain way in your living room? Can you send messages to players just by talking to the television as you pace during the final minutes of a close game? I’m sure we have all gone through this at one time or another. Some truly believe it’s a ridiculous thing and [...]

With the draft ending after three days I can honestly say that I enjoyed it. I wasn’t sure how I was going to like it being on Prime-time, but it ended up being a good idea by the NFL. I think what made it exciting was of course chatting with all my fellow LSS friends as well as being able to watch what was going on in the Cowboys war room. Every time someone in [...]
