    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    So you're another one of those who neglects to recognize that Parcells took over a disastrous 5-11 team, whereas Norv and Wade were handed the keys to playoff caliber teams. This would be like comparing Barry Switzer's first two years to that of Jimmy Johnson all the while failing to mention...

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    That is true, but it still didn't mean Jerry needed to go back to hiring the assistants and then narrowing the choice down to Wade or Norv and then sticking with him for 4 years.

    Pressure will be on Jerry Jones as GM

    Jerry's a wannabe and a horrible GM. One of his best moves was hiring Parcells, but that only happened because he wanted to push for a new stadium and after having run the team into ground culminating in the three straight 5-11 seasons he needed someone to rescue to the franchise. But as soon...

    Whether Romo can lead the team to a SB coming up

    I vote no, at least not with this team. Now if we had a defense like the '85 Bears or '00 Ravens and the rest of the supporting cast then I think he could be a good enough bus driver to get it done. But with the team we have now, he's not good enough of a leader to take charge and be the...

    Sources: Optimism waning as labor talks trend backwards

    I think both sides would be willing to forego part of camp. A week or two of camp plus 4-5 preseason games is too much anyways. For the season to start on time they could likely get by with a week of camp and two preseason games. That'd give them 3 full weeks of practice with a couple of...

    Sources: Optimism waning as labor talks trend backwards

    So far there hasn't been much incentive to get a deal done since the season is still about 2 months away and training camps still a 2-3 weeks from starting. Like most things, it'll probably drag on til time becomes critical and camps and/or games are in jeopardy of being missed. I wouldn't be...

    Sources: Optimism waning as labor talks trend backwards

    Since Dallas hasn't been a serious contender for most of the last 15 years and likely wouldn't be this year either, I think it'll be easier to miss than if this were happening in the early/mid '90's. Right now I don't really care. I do think they'll play a majority of the season, but if they...

    Scout's Eye focus: RB DeMarco Murray

    Then what? Whiff on a tackle?

    President Obama Approval Rating Hits 60 Percent, Highest in Two Years

    Obama is clearly the least qualified candidate to ever be President and the only way he ever got elected was due to the blind hope and change crowd. Hey, let's vote a simple teleprompter slogan.

    President Obama Approval Rating Hits 60 Percent, Highest in Two Years

    The AP poll has Obama’s approval rating hitting 60 percent! And 53 percent say he deserves to be reelected! And on the economy, 52 percent approve of the way Obama’s handling it, and only 47 percent disapprove! He’s up 54–46 on approval of how he’s handling health care! On unemployment, 52...

    DeMarco Murray is bad ass....

    Same here. I wasn't thrilled with Bruce Carter I don't see the nagging injury issue with him and if he gets back to full strength could be a definite steal for us. Murray though, I have major reservations about.

    DeMarco Murray is bad ass....

    Hope he pans out but I think we had better options in the 3rd than a RB, and injury prone one at that.

    Mendenhall loses apparel sponsor....

    It looks like the email I sent to Champion was read by them loud and clear. Next up the lockout...hey Goodell, check your inbox!

    An uncapped year will act as a reset for our franchise

    Oh yeah, we were going to win the SB since it was in Dallas. At least we came close.

    Real person behind the death of Osama.

    I thought Obama personally shot him himself.

    Parcells kicks himself for drafting Pat White, picking Long over Ryan

    I also heard he was looking at Switzer back then too and recall Holtz' name being thrown around. The man is incredibly clueless. He lucked into Jimmy ONLY because he was his former teammate. If he didn't have those ties to him he never would've been hired. It's safe to say that instead of...

    Parcells kicks himself for drafting Pat White, picking Long over Ryan

    Bob Ackles and John Wooten were two of them who were integral in our success.

    Parcells kicks himself for drafting Pat White, picking Long over Ryan

    I know Jerry asked/told Jimmy to "interact" with him in the war room while the cameras were on to make it look to the public like he was involved in the process. Jerry was/is a buffoon when it comes to personnel. Jimmy was definitely the main cog in the process, drafting and trading. It also...

    Parcells kicks himself for drafting Pat White, picking Long over Ryan

    Obviously Parcells was infinitely better than Jerry and Lacewell when it came to personnel. Of course, most people with a heartbeat would've been. But he made more than his share of terrible picks. Not being able to draft OL for one is still hurting us. And some of those Dolphins drafts were...
