Cowboys Got Stomped Hard Yesterday

Oh, my. If I were a Cowboys fan, I'd be in the fetal position, weeping, right now. What a curb stomping - and the Cowboys are officially out of the playoffs now. Tsk.

And they're getting a brand-new stadium next year, to better showcase their almighty suckiness. Too bad their slimy owner, and the City of Arlington's even-slimier city council, used eminent domain to steal the land from homeowners. At least if the Cowboys were a decent team, the victims could comfort themselves with the knowledge that they kind of, sort of, got ripped off for a good cause.

Oh, sure, the Cowboys aren't the first pro sports team to steal from innocent homeowners, but the blatant thievery, so close to home, really bothers me. I go to school in that city, and I lived on campus there for two years. Watching people move out of their homes, by force...listening to the idiots on campus gushing about how great it's going to be to not have to drive more than ten minutes to reach the new stadium...listening to the attorneys duke out the eminent-domain issue...ugh.

Jerry Jones should roast on a spit in Hell for what he convinced Arlington to do. And Arlington's city council should share a spit with him, the thieves. They're all scum-sucking oxygen thieves, and I hope that everything they touch turns to fecal matter.

Let's not forget the city's voters, who just barely passed the initiative to bring the Cowboys to Arlington. I don't know how many voters knew, or realized, that homeowners would be screwed over by the vote. But any of them who did know, and voted for the initiative anyway, belong right next to the rest of the scumbags.

Wow. That Team Sucks Hard.

The Detroit Lions are at 0-13 as of right now. Amazing. That franchise has never sucked this hard before. That's...that's pretty bad.

If they lose just three more games, they'll have a league record. Hey...even though they'll be known as the "losingest" team EVAH!, at least they'll have a record.

I Hate You, Dallas.

I hate the Dallas Cowboys more than I can even begin to describe in this blog entry. I've loathed, despised, detested and hated them for years. "America's Team," my foot. They're a bunch of egotistical, property-stealing, crappy-playing pains in my butt. Jerry Jones can't manage his way out of a paper bag. The organization is the wealthiest one in sports, period (not just football), but they can't pick a decent coach. All the money, notoriety and talent in the world and they still suck, both as human beings and as football players.

I love to hate 'em. I really do. I became an Eagles fan a few years ago mostly because I hate Dallas. But I genuinely like Philly. Donovan McNabb is a good quarterback - I enjoy watching him play. And he's not an egg-sucking waste of oxygen like Michael Vick, who WAS my favorite QB, period. (Sorry sack of crap.)

But this season...oh, man. Dallas was 4-0 until tonight. I tuned in to Monday Night Football because I expected Buffalo to stomp some Cowboy butt. And until the last few minutes of the fourth quarter, I was getting my way.

Did I mention that I'm a native Texan? Oh, and I live near Dallas. You REALLY have to hate a team to live practically in their back yard, but still not cheer for them. Just so you all know.

I laughed my butt off every time Romo screwed up. Meaning, of course, that I laughed almost non-stop considering that he threw FOUR interceptions. Bad day for that guy to be behind the ball.

Buffalo had everything going for them for the first half. They were moving the ball, scoring, humiliating Dallas...outstanding game, at least until the second half.

Dallas should not have won. I'm still in shock because I don't see HOW they even got the opportunities that they did. The blown two-point conversion really should have been the end of the game. But no. Dallas managed to do a good job with the offside kick. Then they kicked the winning field goal...TWICE because Buffalo psyched them out by calling a time-out right before the snap that led to the first one.

Buffalo should have won. They should have OWNED Dallas.

I'm just glad that I didn't have any cash on this game.
