Dallas Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys hog the headlines in football like the Yankees do in baseball.  Jerry Jones demands more attention than a puppy.

Here's the bad news if you're a Cowboy fan:

1.  Drew Bledsoe was a huge mistake.  It took Jerry & Bill over a year to catch on to what any Buffalo or New England fan could have told you.  He is a statue in the pocket with absolutely no feel for the rush.  Nice arm, no legs - the football equivalent of good field, no hit.

2.  Bill Parcells is either the luckiest coach in history, the most overrated, or at the very least - the game has passed him by.  He hasn't won a playoff game in almost 9 years and could have been 0 -3 in Super Bowls if Scott Norwood had made that kick and if Phil Simms hadn't played the game of his life.  His decision to get embroiled in controversy when he brought New England to play Green Bay in New Orleans in 1997 was a huge distraction that cost the Patriots any chance of victory.  His press conferences display his lack of interest, contempt of the media, and indecision.  He should've retired a long time ago.  Watching him get outcoached week after week is painful - if you buy that he was once a legend.

3.  We'll never know if Romo is the answer as he'll get little coaching.

4.  T.O. is  a cancer.  He'll be in remission for awhile with Romo at QB - but it's only a matter of time before he slices and dices the team.  Jones won't have the guts to release him until it's too late.
