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

okay so i am not trying to write like
an idiot, i must have changed a setting that divides my lines up in a way that reminds me of some fancy poetry. i could fix it but its way easier to just apoligize for any eye strain here and correct it next time.
