Its not even November Yet !!!

woe is me....toil and trouble...no thats not it.
it was a dark and stormy night......no actually its been very nice here
in the metroplex.
these are the times that try mens souls......wait thats been done already.

i am searching for just the right words to convey the general sense of dread
i feel coming from the "fans" of the Cowboys. hey i hated watching them lose to
Seattle. i knew 10 points wasnt going to be enough to win, just like i knew 13
points wasnt going to cut it against Washington.

BUT...STOP THE INSANITY !!

We are 7 games into a 16 (sixteen ) game season. the record is 4-3 not 0-7.
we could even say that we are only 3 plays from being 7-0, or 1-6 to be totally
honest with you, cuz they did kick some serious eagle butt !!! but all the other
games could have gone either way.

so, remember in my first post or so i said save the Prozac for later ??
it might be a good time for some of the hand-wringing, hair-pulling,
crying in their beer types to pop a few before they lose it completely.

a good win this week against Arizona and this team is 5-3 at the halfway mark
with their bye week coming up. the 3 new starters on offense from last week
did okay, more playing time should only help them. Julius Jones should be back
after that. We have a new kicker, and while i dont know if he is any better
than Lose Cortez...oops i mean Jose at least maybe he wont point at somebody
else if and when he does miss a chip shot 29 yard field goal attempt.

I think we are still going to have a great season. My hopes are still high.
My expectations havent dimmed even a little bit. I have learned to have great
patience and enduring optimism. Even crushing losses will not burn out the light
of hope i have.

I have learned a lot watching the Houston Astros. later Poke

It's over and we got beat. Congratulations Southsiders! Were the White Sox really that good? The Astros didn't do anything they had not done all year and won the NL pennant. They left men on base, they got shutout, they overused the bullpen. The only thing they didn't do is win.
I find little consolation in being second best. It does however mean The Astros were better than, at least for a season, any other team in the NL.
I had the same feeling watching the series as I did when I watched "The Catch" or "The Ice Bowl" or more recently the losses The 'Boys had this year against Washington or Seattle. I survived those and I will survive this.
Now having said all that let me say this, "Are you ready for some football"?
