Finally

Okay the preseason, exhibition, games are over. I did watch tonights game, at least
parts of it. Officially the Boys were 2-2 this year. Since I only count the the
parts of the game where people who will actually be playing when the season starts
I am gonna call it 2-1-1. I just write the last game off as a tie since neither
team ever looks like they will just a week later.
Im still optimistic about the Good Guys this year. A little concerned over injuries
that seem to be hanging on to some of our starters but hey it happens every year to
every team. The winners find a way around it.
As much as I gripe about the preseason i kind of like it. Its the only time you probably get to see a lot of these guys, and these guys are the ones giving your
starters the looks during the week as they practice, so the better they are the better
your team should be.
Anyway, strap on the helmets, get the chips and hot sauce ready...ice down a beer
if you want and lets get ready for some FOOTBALL !!

Confession is good for what ail's ya

confession time...........i didnt watch tonights preseason game.
apparently i had as much interest in it as our players.
now i have to decide if the sky is falling or was it just a preseason game
and isn't that big a deal. feel free worldwide readers to let me know which
way i should go. i did see the td to owens, looked pretty sweet. i promise
to do better next week.

WHO ya Gonna Call..........with the game on the Line ??

i actually like Gramatica but this was too funny not to post.
Its from training camp. Enjoy

A quiet optimism

A new head coach, a few new players, new coaches on both sides of the ball.
It could be, and for most teams and in most places it would mean a not so great
season. But i just have a feeling that this is gonna be a good year for us Cowboys
fans. Now dont ask me to tell you why, X's and O's and stuff isn't my strong suit
and there are plenty of experts out there to explain all of that. Nope I am just
being a fan, a homer even, I am just liking the way this team looks put together.
I went and saw 3 training camp practices, watched the first preseason game on TV
since i was on the road that day. And i liked it, liked the overall feeling I had
while watching them. The offense looks exciting, not quite so predictable and you
have to expect Romo to be even better this year than last. The defense should be
in good hands, Wade Phillips may not be the most quotable person ( some people say
that but I enjoyed listening to him at his press confernces in San Antonio,
especially when he told us (the fans) to boo the reporters if they asked any
questions we didnt like.)but nobody can question his defensive expertise. The kicking
game should be solid if not spectacular and we just looked fast, so I am expecting
special teams to play a large role in our games this year. Anyway it feels like
spring training to me, Opening Day if you will and my optimism is growing daily.
How will it turn out ? Heck if I know, my name isn't Nostradamus. For now put me down
at 11-5 and a trip to the NFC Championship game......I will predict later how that
will turn out. Course this is all just my opinion, I could be wrong. Later Poke
