that was a great win. first start, on the road, nfc opponent. could mean something when the playoffs come around.
but if the Boys dont come out swinging against the deadskins and post another W
then that fun gutty victory means nothing. hopefully everybodys back wont be sore
from all the patting this week and we can actually win 2 in a row.
and yeah all that kissin makes me a lil nervous too.
what i want to see is ol Bill tear somebody up when they screw up. but hey i guess
some positive reinforcement could go a long way.
now, if we ever get TG and TO going at the same time, with Julius and Marion
running hard and sneaking some stuff to Witten and Fasano then we will have a shot
at playing past the last regular season game.
anyway im still giddy over that win. later Poke

slow to respond
okay im a creep. i should have written this done way sooner. i could say
i havent had time...jobs, family..yada yada yada. but the truth is:
i was disgusted, embarassed, aggrivated, sick, bewildered and just plain mad at how
the Boys played ( or didnt play) monday night.
you just dont show up with that kind of effort for such a big game. at home. on monday night. against a division opponent.
then the big QB change. at the game the week before there were about 30,000 fans
hollering..romo, romo, romo. im sure it was the same monday night even though i wasnt there. my question is....who were they hollering for after that first interception romo threw ?? after the second ?? after the third ?? staubach ?
meredith ?? bledsoe did look terrible. but if the o-line doesnt block it wont matter much whos back there. theres a reason football is considered a team sport.
i dont care how many high paid superstars you have.
anyway that was last week. its a new day. thats behind us.
TIME TO BE BOLD IM GONNA GO WAY OUT ON A LIMB HERE and say that
the Good Guys, DaBoyz, the Pokes are gonna show up in carolina. gonna play a great game, gonna surprise a lot of people and BEAT THEM FRAZZLIN PANTHERS.
NOW JUST LET ME WARN YA'LL....im not doing too good picking winners this year in a couple of pick em contests. but i feel something good is gonna happen here.
im not saying its gonna be all romo to the rescue, cuz i dont feel that way at all.
i just think the TEAM will pick their game up and show us their true colors.
so keep the faith, put on the silver and blue tune in to NBC and lets see what happens. later Poke

a very important game
sure i know every game is important. they all count in the standings right ?
but...BUT this is a game against a division opponent, at home..and its on MONDAY night. so far all the Boys have done is win at home against the rapidly falling deadskins, beaten the titans and their talented but rookie qb Vince Young and then
whipped up on the texans at home. this will be the best gauge yet of how good the
good guys really are.
flozell and the rest of the o-line have got to play their best game yet if drew is
going to have a chance at getting the ball to glenn and owens. i am not an expert
at X and O stuff but even i know our line has got perform this game. if they dont the
giants 2 stud DE's will make it a long night at Texas Stadium.
and our defense really has to come up with some new wrinkles, try to make lil Eli
get confused and make some bad choices.
and it goes without saying that drew cant have another of his bad games, his throws
really dont need to be hiting the turf 5 feet in front of the target. i just think that if he does have time to throw he better make good use of it.
anyway thats just some of my worries for this week, theres plenty more to consider but hey this is a blog not a book. later Poke

win the ones you are supposed to
okay.. another wet rainy day at the Temple of the Blue Star. still a lot of fun though. especially giving the texan fans a hard time. ( only after they started
mouthing off about the "great" mario wiliams. then they razzed TO when he slipped down..i couldnt help it when my mouth flew open and screamed at them..REGGIE BUSH !)
by the end of the 3rd quarter most of them left.
hey i realize it was only the texans but those are the kind of games you have to show up for and win. there is going to be all those games against the tough teams
on the road where winning is harder. you may win but its wont take much to lose one of those games. thats why you have to win the ones where you do have the better team.
no days off.
i was really happy parcells didnt just run the ball when the Boys got the lead. bledsoe seemed to get into a rhythm as the game went on after looking bad at first.
we still dont seem to pressure the qb enough, but the texans went with a lot of quick
release passes so i wont complain too much.
i was sweating ron dayne having another good day against us but the run defense held up strong. our idiot kicker looked okay, but our coverage on punts is scaring me.
what else?? oh yeah the cheerleaders looked great as usual.
anyway, chalk that up as a win...now lets play some nfc east football against the giants monday night. a win then should make us all feel better about the good guys.

it is what it is........kinda
im guessing every week is going to be like that.
which o-line will show up, the one that had only given up 4 sacks in 3 games...or
the one that gave up 6 ( or 7? ) in one game. at times our offense looked great,
then at times they looked bad, really bad. the defense, well they too looked great
at times, then boom, gave up more big plays in one game since who knows when..(oh yeah since last years washington monday night game). special teams looked okay sometimes but the missed snap puts us in a hole and we have to play from behind to start the game...thats never a good thing. bledsoe..what can i say? thats 2 games where you have to feel that if he had even played halfway decent we should have won.
i know he was harassed, beaten down,and hurried all day long, i know he put in the effort, all you had to do was look at his uniform...BUT, you still dont expect your veteran, wise OLD QB to throw an interception in the end zone on 2nd down, or to float a pass that looked like it needed a fair catch. so if inconsistency was what we were shooting for we have reached that lofty goal. all you old guys out there just make sure you have plenty of blood pressure medicine, you young fiery guys
stay away from coffee tables that get in your way while watching the game. women and children....just slip out the back door during the pre-game warmups. it looks like
we are gonna be CONSISTENTLY INCONSISTENT this year. bring on the texans !!!

first in a long time
okay..now thats the way the Boys should play.
BUT...i gotta admit something, something so bad i hang my head in shame.
i didnt see todays game. not one frazzling play. i wanted to. i tried to.
but i didnt. i couldnt get out of doing something else so i checked the handy tv guide on my cable box...saw where the Boys played at noon, on Fox, set up the oh so modern dvr, and went off doing my thing. avoided the radio and any people who might mention the score and thought about hurrying home to watch the game . i wouldnt even answer my cellphone cause i knew somebody would call and ask or tell me something about the game(ask my son)... perfect plan...imperfect world. you see the dvr i set up was in louisiana...the channel guide said the Good Guys would be on...but it lied. nope when i got home i had a recording of the saints-panthers game. whhooppeee. hey i like the saints, heck about a third of their team is ex-Cowboys, but i sure didnt want to watch them instead of the beloved Boys in Blue. so i apologize to all of Cowboy Fandom...dock my paycheck..i deserve it. and then to complete this fouled up
day of sports , in baseball the Cardinals lost...but so did the Astros. too bad big brother, it would have been the greatest comeback ever. anyway since i didnt see any sports, i guess i cant say anything about them today either..see ya'll next week.
