God, I'm old...

I was there. It was worth 60 minutes of regulation and two overtimes standing in freezing rain to watch Briles lose that one.

My first thought was, “Wait… not A&M?”

Nope. At the time (and yes, I’m that old) I would have agreed with you. I thought Tom Landry was the greatest thing since sliced bread. But the hard truth is that the league had figured out his innovations and it was time for him to honorably retire. (I wish it would have gone down that way.) But Jimmy Johnson was a worthy successor. Different attitude, different culture, different game plan. And more important, he brought in a WINNING attitude, culture, & game plan. But it was Jimmy that put those ‘90’s Super Bowl wins together (including the “legacy” wins under Switzer). Jerry just picked up the tab. But Jimmy got too much credit for Jerry’s tastes and Jerry just had to go and eff it up. Screw him and his ego and the fact that despite putting an inferior product on the field for going on 30 years, he still owns the most valuable sports franchise in the world. As a kid, I LOVED the Dallas Cowboys. Now, I watch to see Jerry get humiliated* and they never disappoint. *And Jerry benefits from the ratings.

That was EXACTLY the moment when it all began to go downhill.

This is why the Dallas Cowboys are the world’s richest sports franchise when they haven’t won a divisional playoff in over 25 years. But hey, since all that UT revenue gets distributed to the fans, it’s all good.

Is this sarcasm?

Given that the brawl took place in the handicapped seating section, I think De Sousa deserves at least some credit for not picking up and brandishing a wheelchair.

No kidding. Waco’s getting a Pappadeaux any day now.

FIFY

THANK YOU! I have no problem with Big & Rich, and I could even deal with Cowboy Troy, but that skank ruined what used to be a fun opening sequence.

What do restrooms have to do with any of this?

It ain’t Iowa.

Just wondering...
