okay so its hard for a blogger to admit.
there is too much Cowboys talk going on.
that wont keep me from expounding even more on the Boys but
i have to at least point it out.
the local radio idiots have been having a field day.
espn has not missed a chance to build up our guys, then
spend an equal or greater amount of time tearing them down.
remember this was a team that was going to the Super Bowl
not that long ago.
but heres the deal...this isnt fantasy football, where stats
count as scores, where you can just add or subtract players
depending on how you feel.
this isnt madden 09, where anything you can dream up actually works
on the gridiron.
nope its football. where players have to show up ready to play.
where star players get hurt and sit out weeks at a time.
where role players either step up or you have glaring holes where once
you had stability.
the message boards are full of suggestions, comments, plans and bold
declarations that the posters know how to fix all the Good Guys woes.
everybody thinks they are a coach.
at the Tabernacle last week the geniuses behind me werent fans. they were critics.
every move, play, bad throw or coaching decision was met with derision.
they were almost gleeful in their putting down of men who have spent their lives
doing....what these numbskulls behind me wish they were doing.
making a living playing or coaching football.
i understand the enjoyment of "talking football". all the what ifs and whys.
we have moved way beyond that point.
all these commissioners of fantasy land football actually believe they know better
than guys who spend hours, days weeks, months...their whole lives studying football.
gimme a break.
theres a reason the real coaches and players are down there and you and me are
sitting up there in section 34.
its hard to admit but go ahead. it will make you feel better. they are better than
we were !! see....i bet you already feel better.
now look..i like certain players more than other ones BUT...that doesnt mean i am
a better football player than say... bobby carpenter. sure he has been
a disappointment but be honest with yourself, look around the stadium, do you really
think you or the guy sitting next to you would give us a better chance to stop
Warrick Dunn on 3rd and 7 ??
what i would like to see is more fans, less coaches.
could be its just me or maybe a lot of you are just nuts.
oh yeah....im still thinking the Boys go to NY and kick some Giants butts.
i dont know how they are gonna do it, in fantasy land im sure it looks impossible.
but hey thats my team and i count on them doing the impossible.
later Poke

man, im glad that im not the ONLY one that thinks we have a shot in NY.
then again, i was raised by the cat that wrote this blog.
Okay here's the deal. I feel I must accept some of the responsibility for the recent skid. I accepted a job offer recently, like September 26 and have worked steadily since with no days off. That includes Sundays so I have not seen a game since September 20. Does anyone see the pattern developing here? Superstition is always a part of every athlete's and every fan's persona. Maybe, just maybe had I not been working and had been home glued to the television pulling for The Good Guys things would be different. Then again, maybe not.
