Know Your Dallas Cowboys: The Blog

Not sure if it’s good or bad to remember last season’s 13-10 loss to the Seahawks in Seattle; much better to remember the Cowboys’ 43-39 win in 2004. But since I can’t show a video from that game– and since I think that most of us like to disregard the fact that Vinny Testaverde […]

In the scheme of things, the highlights from today’s loss to Detroit really aren’t as bad as those from the losses to Philadelphia or New Orleans. See? All positive these days. Fortunately, you can’t hear me right now.

Mick’s take on today’s game:
This game was a microcosm of the Cowboys’ season, repeatedly recovering […]

Ah, yes, there is a phrase I can use: Dead Men Walking.
Remember when the Cowboys left the Meadowlands with a win and then faced three home games in four weeks? Could you imagine that Dallas would lose all three of those home games? In the past four, including the 38-28 win over Atlanta, […]

It’s pretty normal for a playoff team to come out totally flat against a 2-13 team that is playing for the number one pick in the draft, right? Right?
Okay, then, I applauded Terence Newman for speaking out last week. Perhaps he should just play football. His personal foul penalty for hitting a […]

I can’t say that I’ve stuck with the original purpose behind this site (trivia, obscurity, whatever) very faithfully, but at least I’ve stuck with Questions Waiting for Answers all season! Thought it was mildly interesting to read my (was still referring then to “we,” though there was no “we”) week one questions in the […]

Well, it’s been a frustrating week for Gnome, as you will see in this week’s show. He plans to ask Trivia Jane out on a date for New Year’s Eve, but discovers that she is dating someone else on the cast. That throws Gnome into a tailspin where he rattles off useless […]

Okay, so we’ll try a little bit less sarcasm today. We have so many serious things to consider– will Terrell Owens get out of Dallas without being punched in the mouth? Can the Cowboys find a way to win against the second-worst team in the league (thinking here that the Lions are worse […]

Thought about finding all of the adjectives that have been used to describe the Cowboys’ performance last week, but why do that? A thesaurus listing of Jerry Jones’ term– pitiful– works just fine. Here we are:
abject, affecting, afflicted, arousing, base, beggarly, cheap, cheerless, comfortless, commiserative, compassionate, contemptible, deplorable, despicable, dismal, distressed, distressing, fish, […]

I really shouldn’t post an entire article here, and usually don’t, but this one is worth it from my own perspective. Great points, top-to-bottom. So I am going to form a Jennifer Floyd Engel fan club for at least a week, after which time I may become ambivalent towards her columns once […]

My positive outlook has been squashed, so I am going to flip to the dark side and be sarcastic and negative. The good news this week is that I have not been banned for a day from the Dallas Cowboys Fan Zone due to using a not-abbreviated-enough version of the f-word. Apparently, you […]
