official post game wrap up

okay that was fun. it was cold and windy and rainy and snowy even.
not much but a little snow did fall.
it was hilarious when the crowd realized it was snowing a huge cheer erupted.
from grown people!!...for those of you not from texas, snow makes everybody here
act funny. it was just like the 2 times it ever snowed while i was in school.
the game just seemed well in hand from early on and the atmosphere around the
stadium reflected that. partying seemed to be the main thing. the thanksgiving day
crowd is always different than any other game. not too many jets fans where i was
and they seemed to know their team had no chance.
the T-New interception was amazing..he really snagged that ball outta the air.
romo seemed a little off at first but to be honest i think the whole team came out
to start the game way pumped up. anyway nice to be 10-1 for the FIRST TIME EVER
and i gotta check to make sure nobody got hurt, but man that was fun. later Poke

HAPPY THANKSGIVING DAY

okay, short week.

breakdown that I usually do. HAHAHA
Just gonna head for the Tabernacle of the Blue Star
and eat some steaks, meet some other fans and Holler
like crazy for the Good Guys.

how to do it.
Till then Happy Thanksgiving, enjoy the day.later Poke

now you know why its a rivalry game

okay all you youngsters and peoples who didnt have a clue.
ya see, it really doesnt matter who has the better record,
the best players, who has starters hurt,or anything else
when these 2 teams play. these games always get weird.
funny, sometimes bad things happen...to good people and good
teams. i cant explain it nor can anybody else but now you
have seen it for yourselves. our best receiver had 4 td catches,
but we could have easily lost that game. we intercept a pass but it
doesnt seal the game cuz all of a sudden we cannot get that last first down.
its a team game, the defense saved it at the end but the offense put up
a lotta points too. so no matter how these games look, or what the stats
say...when you win against the deadskins, dont look back, chalk it up
as W and move on. thats what i am gonna do...bring on the J-E-T-S jets, jets jets !!
and the next time some supposedly knowledgable fan tells you how easily
the Boys are gonna beat the skins,dont believe em.
these games always have to be played out to the end.

a lesson to be learned

good job Cowboys, very sweet indeed to see ya'll go to NY
and beat them whining, mouthing, crybaby giants.
thats all i got to say about that.
in an effort to teach our players to just SHUT UP !
this blog will remain silent this week. hopefully
they will see that you dont need to jaw jack and mouth off
when they stop a runner who is running out the clock and then by your stupidity
set up a tying field goal.
thats all i got to say about that too. later Poke

B-I-G

B-I-G
this week is definitely big.
big in figuring out who leads the NFC East.
big in seeing how good our 3-4 defense is.
big in showing how Tank Johnson works out.
big in being consistent on offense against someone who has seen us already this year.
big for deciding who to use to replace our hurt rookie Fullback( does Garrett use Hoyte
or a TE to do the blocking and catching short passes)
big because nothing has been decided yet, other teams keep winning too ya know.
BUT
let me slip away from the NFL for just a second, a long awaited second.
BIG BIG BIG because this week, for the first time in their 41 year history my old
high school football team has made the Texas High School Football Playoffs !!!!!!!!
A lot of people are happy about that because even when we weren't good those folks
supported the football team. ( least they did when I was there a gajillion years ago.
So way to go Raiders !!!!
I just got me a feeling that this is gonna be a good weekend for the Boys.

Gather up the Young'uns

Hey fellow old timers, gather up your kids and grandkids and park their
carcasses in front of this blog. Get the snacks out. Heck, lets build
us a campfire and roast some marshmellows for them.
I got some news for the younger set, say, anybody 12 and under and maybe even
some of them kiddos up to about 16 or so. Everybody comfy ?
Now listen up.
Did you see that game Sunday night ? The one where the Boys of the Blue Star
whipped, defeated, smashed, creamed, and annihilated the low life, classless, clueless
and generally inept eagirls ??
Thats the way it should be.
I know ya'll are too young to know this, but the Cowboys are always supposed to beat
them Philly dogs like that. Sure, most of you have watched as us old folks ranted
and raved about our beloved Boys, talked about the good old days, how good the Cowboys were. Ya'll probably thought we were crazy, like the old uncle who talks about how much better life used to be. But you see its true. Thats how the old
Cowboys used to do it. Us old folks just got spoiled to seeing it, ALL THE TIME.
It didn't matter who the Boys were playing, where they were playing, or what night
the Boys were playing. You just knew the Good Guys in the Silver Helmets were
gonna win the game. You even got to expecting to have the game won before the 60
minutes was up, a little un-wind time before the score became official. I cant
remember how many times I was hoping nobody would get hurt in mop-up time, just like
i was worrying last night about it.
So quit yer snickering the next time Dad rambles on about Staubach, Drew Pearson, Dorsett, Aikman, Smith, Irvin, or when Grandpa wheezes his way through the list
of Meredith, Hill, Hayes, Lilly, Howley, Jordan, Too-Tall and the beautiful Harvey
Martin.
WE REALLY WEREN'T MAKING IT ALL UP. THATS THE WAY COWBOYS PLAY FOOTBALL.
Luckily, you young hopes of the next generation finally got to see it for yourself
cause that game Sunday Night was as good as one as I remember seeing.
The fact that it happened against the dirty birds from philly just makes it even more fun.later Poke

work up the HATE

OKAY its the eagirls. Time to start hating.
We haven't beat them since 2005.
Its time to stop that foolishness and get them
back to where they belong.
Drum up the memories of buddy ryan and his petty
fake kneel down against St. Tom in his down years.
And don't forget the "bounty" ol butty had either.
Heck its easy to work up the hate. I still remember
long legged Harold Carmichael beating us deep.
No one will forget the scumbag fans who cheered as
the Playmaker lay hurt on the field.
classless fans, coaches and stadiums are the iggles legacy.
BUT, more important is I just want to see the Boys play a
complete game. Offense, Defense, Special teams, for all 4
quarters.
Its time to see how good we can be. Git er done Wade.
