Props to the Mods for all their hard work.
Props to Dale for his comments from VR. (Though the Matt Jones info had me worried.  )
Props to everyone in Cowboys Chat. (I didn't realise I could read that fast!)
The whole weekend has been a fantastic experience.
I've had a SIMPLY AWESOME time!
Thanks
Arch

But still, it's unprecedented not to see a few meltdowns, wailing at the moons, and conspiracy theories come draft weekend.
I am also surprised to see very little overall mistrust of HOW Bill is intending to fix the D. I mean, this will be a near, if gradual WHOLESALE change in personnel and scheme, and the two of the true fine players on the defensive roster, La' Roi and Dat, (and possibly even Ellis) COULD potentially be marginalized by this move.

If it weren't for the fact we all know Tuna hates losing worse than anything, the cynics among us might suspect he set this whole thing up last off season.

So onto the new frontier! With a seeming minimum of fuss. It's not the first time this fanbase has impressed me with its reasonableness.
I guess Nors' two year road paving smoothed the path to the 3-4. And Juke does have those pencil holes on both ears as testimony to the "process".

Thanks for the great work mods.
Now, can one of you help me with my wife? She isn't very happy with me spending the weekend in front of the puter.
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.

That's only because of my "off the field" issues...

Great job this weekend, mods. Terrific coverage of the draft both on the board and in the chat room.
THANKS!!!!!

We have been extremely lucky in our mods here since Reality opened up his first Cowboys fan board and I am not even sure how far back that goes although I am sure he is too modest to post that himself. The mods added since then continued that tradition of a place for us to post our views, exchange information with other devoted fans from all teams and celebrate our victorys and console our selves after our defeats. Nice job guys, very nice indeed.
