That comment makes you sound like the idiot you are trying to accuse Mickey of being. I bet you didn't even read the article, you just saw who wrote it and thought to yourself, "eww goodie, another chance to bash Spags" You see a thread with a Mickey Spagnola article and you automatically pounce... box checked. But you are in good company, there are a lot of posters here that do that sort of thing.

Is that you Mickey?

One of Spags' quotes :

"As it stands at end now, probably would have to piecemeal the spot between maybe Tyrone Crawford, then Dorance Armstrong and Joe Jackson, with a long shot of last year's seventh-round pick Jalen Jelks being ready to make the team."

Ummm , not at almost $10 million dollars , Mick.....................................

LOL, No. Are you another box checker that doesn't understand some of us Cowboys fans like most Mickey Spanola articles? It's okay if you are, just don't be a box checker every time Mickey's work is quoted here.

Mickey knows more about what’s going on than any other person that is supposed to be a Cowboys beat writer

Nothing really new. But just going over his top 10 priorities he listed earlier in the year, and the status of what has happened since then.

Do agree it is only 3 days into FA. So no need to panic (my words not his).

This “there is time so no need to panic” is bizarre because as time goes on, the options get smaller. It’s not like there is an infinite number of quality DEs. There are only a handful of options now, for example.

Why is re-signing Dak , a mediocre QB , at this ridiculous cost a priority ?

Every year. We don't address positions and hear, don't panic; it's only X day of FA! Then we end up not addressing positions and hear the same people who urge calm start talking up the scrubs we do sign. Although McCoy ranks above our usual bargain bin haul.

Then why even look at the thread then? When I see certain thread titles, most of the time I know it will be a waste of my time and move on.
Yeah..

Spags has this writing habit of not doing any real reporting..

only rehashing the obvious and trying to make a story about it.

Lazy lazy...

I reminds you of your 4th grade teacher. You know the one..

the one that started out saying on Monday..

"Class, last week we discussed the Russian Revolution..etc."

And she would spend half the class repeating last week.

This is what Spags does. You think he knows it?

For sure he does but he probably gets paid by the word so he repeats.

I can't stand him. I always feel like he is the teacher and we are the students and he needs to help us with our thinking caps.

Ridiculous.

:angry:

Wow. Am I the first guy to think Spagnola is a Cowboys homer who worships at the alter of Jerry Jones? If I am then give me credit for originality. If I am not then slow your roll, I am either in the majority or a large minority!

I can't hear Spagnola when he's inside Jerry's colon.
hes been JJ's personal proctologist for over 25 years now. Conversely, JJ has been Micks personal scalp inspector for just as long. Mick is the consumate yes man. NOTHING IS OFF THE TABLE.

My priority is never to listen to anything Spagnola has to say. If the Cowboys signed a side of beef to play DT, Spagnola would check a box somewhere.

I came into the thread just to ask why anyone would voluntarily read anything this shill writes. He's the reason I don't listen to the podcast.
