Aint that the truth. I'm suprised he was he even let on the premisis. He's nothing but a cowboy and T.O. hater. Man i hope T.O. proves all these HATERS wrong.

He may not have been 'scout' per se, but I have to throw the name Joel Bushbaum out there.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

Yep, he has us finishing last in the East. Last week, he was pretending it was the first game of the season and was giving scoring updates like every 10 minutes like "16-0 here in the second quarter". Then it was like 23-3 and i was done listening at that point.

I caught part of this on my commute home. Romo was on for a quick interview and sounded good. According to Adam/Gil, Romo had a great practice. I liked the things Romo said in this interview. I've read interviews in the past where sometimes I thought his answer wasn't PC enough as a QB often needs to be. But I liked his comments today. One thing Romo said is that he doesn't want to be a backup for too much longer and he thinks the Cowboys realize this. Otherwise he says he's ready for whenever he does play. Also according to Adam/Gil, they notcied the player rallying with him and congratulating him after the situation drills they ran where he threw a TD to Crayton I think.

They also had good things to say about Canty. And also that Watkins looks like he can make some plays and could be the guy at FS once he learns the defense and how to read offenses better.

Like Baushbaum, Brandt was also a draftnick. And like Baushbaum and Kiper he never played a down of professional football, but had a bunch of friends at the college level that fed him good info on some unknown players. His problem started when he wanted to find diamonds in the rough in the early rounds. he hit some good ones in the 60's & 70's like duane thomas (West Texas State), calvin hill (Yale) and thomas henderson (Langston) that had people scratching thier heads. he did however miss on quite a few like rod hill from kentucky st.
"I could've done a $2 billion takeover (in another industry) with the capital I put in the Dallas Cowboys," he says. "I really could see (myself as) the idiot who had something real good, who blew it all to coach the Cowboys. I just knew that was going to be my legacy." Jerry Jones 9/14/2012
