    Real test for me is next week when Seattle hosts a game in Seahawk stadium. Yeah, same ballpark. Will it be an empty cavern? If not, if it has a strong crowd, it's gonna give the XFL real legitimacy. I think the league certainly didn't hurt itself today. TV ratings will be telltale.

    Loud and proud, full stadium. Smallish and intimate stadium though, really steep bleachers. Like a Roman arena.

    Who Here is Not Entirely Sold on Dak Prescott?

    You don't get it! Romo is relevant here because he was the last QB we signed to a big contract. And how did that turn out? Also every gripe people have about Dak were also true of Romo. And all I ever read here at DCU and elsewhere was "pay the man." And what a football God he was. I was on an...

    The Brady to Dallas Thread

    I wouldn't really mind it too much if we got Brady. Earlier I said let someone else pay him, but shit. He's got 6 super bowl rings and played in nine of them. He's actually DONE something. I'd rather see us pay a guy who's actually accomplished anything than throw any more money at guys who...

    They really botched it in the last 9 game-clock minutes, with endless stupid booth reviews and a bunch of nonsensical penalties, the end of that game was a clusterfuck. Really really not the product they want to put out. I hope some asses get chewed, they ruined what was a pretty good up-tempo...

    Who Here is Not Entirely Sold on Dak Prescott?

    He turned down a 33 mil/year offer last spring. There's really no rush to sign him immediately. Hopefully they're thinking long and hard about it. Michael Irvin's take intrigues me somewhat, his insistance that "important people" told him at the SB we were looking at trading Dak and signing...

    Who Here is Not Entirely Sold on Dak Prescott?

    There's no way to argue with the silliness you're challenging with facts. Posters such as that have the mentality of a 12 year-old when it comes to football. There's no reasoning with them. Can only just ignore them the same way you'd ignore any other child.

    LA scores on a nice little 8 yd QB bootleg. Backup QB outta Princeton is playing, starter hurt in practice. Try for 2 was good, 8-6 LA with 7:39 left 1st qtr.

    LAWildcats at Houston Roughnecks. Houston already caught 'em with a bomb on a sluggo... 7 zip Houston. Curt Menefee keeps calling them the Renegades. He needs to lay off the sauce. 10 minutes left, 1st qtr.

    Seattle strikes right back with a 4 play 85 yd drive. TD came on a 77 yard wag route catch by the slot guy who happens to be a 4.6 speedster and outran the DC secondary down the right sideline. 19-19 is the score as the try for 1 failed.

    DC Defendors march right down the field for a TD which came on a nice catch and run by their big bull of a TE off the flea-flicker. Pass had nice touch by Jones. Try for 1 was good with a quick toss left, and the score is now 19-13 DC. 11 minutes left 3rd qtr.

    Dragons score a TD on a inside swing pass, they made the try for 1. 13-9 Seattle. Halftime. EDIT - Ensuing kickoff did not cross the opponent 20 yard line, so by rule the ball was placed at the kicking team's 45 with 20 seconds left on the clock. DC was able to get into FG range on a Jones...
