I got up at 5 o'clock this morning to watch the game because I was gone until 8:30 last night. I would have been home about and hour and a half earlier but I ended up helping an old man change his tire after he cut a valve stem. He didn't have his spare in his van so we had to take him home to get it.

50 years are in the book. The end.
Good post as always hostile, yeah i went to a friends house about the 4th quarter, couldnt stand anymore to watch. I did hear about the 4th down pass. And later at my friends house I saw the pass and celebration, and what keith brooking did. Boy, oh boy, I wished we had a player like him on offense, that could motivate the team like brooking does on defense.
I am really ticked off at the vikings childress and favre now. I no longer care for favre or not now. To me he is a big mouth, and I wish and hope that the saints give the vikings the same treatment and beating like we got sunday.
Then, we will see what their head coach has to say and loud mouth favre has to say.
I started believing in the team again about midseason. I admit at start of the year i was skeptical with wade as head coach. I think to some degree wade has made some changes, but he still needs to make some more.
Like wade believed in folk and like hostile said he wished we had stuck through with folk like wade wanted to, thats where I disagree.
To me, when a player falters and keeps making mistakes and wants to blame others etc, its time to make changes.
Like Jimmy Johnson did once with one of our kickers, when the kicker admitted that he lost his confidence, jimmy fired the kicker the next day. I do believe that you need continiuty and chemistry, but sometimes as head coach you have to make the tough decisions and hard difficult moves. Thats what a head coach does. He has to keep the pulse on the team, and make changes when necessary. If he tries to overlook it thinking it will come around or get rosier, he is only fooling himself and the team.
Like Hostile, I was glad the team won the nfc east divison, and their first playoff game. We needed that as a team, and by wade and stephen jones getting rid of the trouble makers like pacman and T O, cleared up the locker room and attitude.
However, like Hostile said, the offensive line stunk, we all saw that. What I would have done in that first quarter, when I saw columbo getting my qb killed, I would have pulled Columbo, told him the facts and said something like remember, what is best for the team. The team is what matters, so your going to sit, I admire you wantting to play, but the team comes first. Doug Free would have played, and might have made a difference.
Granted doug free had to play later for flozell, but you never know, that first quarter, if we had scored, might have made a difference and flozell might not have gottne hurt. You didnt hear to much from jared allen till flozell got hurt.
I was glad to see that wade jumped on campo for the pass sensabaugh didnt have covered for td, didnt even know the ball was thrown, or newman just letting sidney rice run by him without a jam. Dont know how true or not, but someone said that wade jumped onto someone at the end of the game, like saying get the f off of the field and shut up. Again, just posting what someone said that wade said, and that jerry jones was standing behind wade and jason garrett when he said what wade said. Made me real proud to see wade blow up like that at players, and coaches if wade was indeed chewing out jason garrett too.
Now and then you know you have to chew out the players, and let them know you mean it. It's like tony romo said yesterday, some of the other players need to work their rear ends off, like some of us others have. When some of these players, dont know who romo meant, but when they do romo said we will improve as a team and be better for 2010..
Back to the kicker situation, if their is a very good kicker in the draft, go get him, along with a very good kickoff and punt returner. I am sick and tired of the returners tiptooing on returns.
Also, dont forget, we need a football player that can hold for field goal attempts too, we dont need romo holding for field goal attempts.
Good thread all. And good luck to the Cowboys management as they go into this offseason.....
?! He's been undervalued by many on here IMO and the Queens put that on full display yesterday!! I hope JJ keeps with his "continuity" theme and presses on with this regime at least one more season because, all in all, this was a pretty good season (but pretty good won't be good enough for me in '10-11 
, consider the bar RAISED)!!
