He's had the nickname MB3 forever.

Marion "The Barbarian" Barber is most elusive when reporters approach his locker. The guy is just painfully shy.

But Barber's punishing running style speaks for itself. Reader Carl read somewhere that Marion The Barbarian ought to have old-school Batman sound effects when he runs the ball.

Carl made good use of some free time by creating this visual Barber tribute, enhanching North Texas alum/SportsDay superstar photographer Vernon Bryant's excellent shot of The Barbarian blasting Adam Archuleta.

That's freakin great.

I understand that, but I had not heard of anyone making the play on words with an MP3 player. I think he said something like "the cowboys were playing their MB3 player".

I think I like the nickname "Barbarossa" better.

As long as it is not Barbarella.


Is Barber wearing a new type of jersey that has buttons that attached to the shoulder pads along his chest or is the jersey just pulled very tight in that area? It looked different in the shot of him on his long run. It also appeared as if Reggie Bush was wearing a similar style on MNF. I had not heard anything about it. Look at the shot where AA is on the ground and you can see a dimple look in MB3's jersey.

LOL.

He's Not ladell betts.

Ladell Betts just tripped over his own foot.

I guess he took the under......

 

[EPL0c0]

That was SO nice LOL

 

[Idgit]

Looks like he's bringing Barber down single-handedly to me.

Weird. A Redsk*ns fan overrating Adam Archuleta.

 

[smarta5150]

Where did Hog go?

 

[Undisputed]

Classic.

LOL - Dude - Go AWAY. Omg - you are just here to start crap.

Seriously - don't post. Go back and show Art how to keep ES online after a loss by the Commanders.

You might want to watch the replay, Barber going down is not how this play ended.

Are you sure? He looks off balance like Archuleta is in the process of bringing him down in this picture.

Yes, we're sure.

You're looking at it as if Arch is pulling him towards him and down to the ground. That isn't how it unfolded. Barber leaned into him and lowered his head as he was turning the corner towards the endzone. The picture was snapped at the split second after Barber made impact with Arch. Arch is bouncing off of Marion as he walked into the endzone, upright.

I can't remember which of Barbers touchdowns that is.

See, not all runners go down with the slightest contact inside the 5 yard line.

Archuletta and Roy Williams need to go back to fundamentals 101...:laugh2:

Actually when Earl Campbell and MB3 hit a defender, they just bounce off them.

On second thought, I think you might be right.

I think he tackled Barber and Barber didn't score a touchdown, and Dallas went on to lose to Chicago and Rex Grossman was named the FedEx Air player of the week.


And while we're at it... I also think that Joe Gibbs isn't senile and hasn't lost it and when his game came down to the clutch final goal line plays, he had his best running back in the backfield and he gave it to him and he ran into the endzone and his team beat the Giants.
