Cowboy players don't like each other?

At half time yesterday while I was picking up my kid, I came across one of the nationally syndicated radio show that run constant updates and commentary--not sure if it was Fox radio or ESPN. But the talking head and a so called expert where both agreeing that they felt the Cowboy players did not like each other and this was a grave concern. What was used to reinforce this point was the incident with Gurode where "no one came to his defense after he had his head stomped on"

Frankly I dont think this holds any water at all. When you watch the incident, everyone is celebrating the TD and didnt even realize what happened. Then Haynesworth is kicked out, so what can you do--follow him into the parking lot and mete out justice????

On another note--something stood out in the same game. James scores his INT TD and he is mobbed. Watching highlights of the Atlanta game the same day--Deangelo Hall scores a td on an interception, then goes into his Deon impression. Team mates come over to congratulate him but he is so involved in his dance that they walk away!

If you want to draw inferences, you cant pick and choose your examples!

Frankly, I think it is all a pile of crap manufactured by talking heads trying to create a story

Didn't know that being in the media requires you to be sports psychiatrist also. Or is it just the media being lazy again?

IMHO, nobody even knew what happened when Haynesworth did is dirty work. If players would have seen it, I know quite a few would have jumped in on throwing Haynesworth to the ground.

T.O. looked like the teammate that cared the most, but we'll never hear the media talk about it.

wait till we see the nonsense from espn this week, the cowboys play on espn monday night, so espn will create at least two stories this week that will dominate the headlines all week so that they can build their ratings.

My predictions on the two are that
A. parcells and owens arent getting along and parcells like haley more.
B. Tony Romo is going to be the quarterback at some point, (mortensen beating a dead horse) Saying that the cowboys fans in the stadium want romo and he now showed he can play.

By the way, shame on all the fans in the stadium yesterday. I wanted to choke someone I was so mad. Chanting romo when bledsoe was just doing what the gameplan was called for, throw it quick, make a read and get rid of it or throw it away.

I am still in the guys corner, it is foolish that the hometown fans were booing him, I couldnt believe my ears yesterday. that is stuff you do when you are say 1-4 or 0-5...or washington.

I couldn't believe how many Texans fans there were. At some points in the game, it sounded like an away game.

Well, the fans are smart enough to know that he needs to ride the pine for the team to have a winning season.

There is a little misconception there. Texans fans were wearing red and red jerseys.

So When i walked in and sat down I saw a bunch of red before kickoff, after a closer look I realized the red was not houston red.

There were a couple of high school marching bands/cheerleaders and other people involved in a halftime show, they were all wearing red. It was very misleading. They were sitting together in like 3 different sections and it made the stadium look more red than it really was.

As far as crowd noise, there was no noise from texans fans, in fact the texan fan in front of me was a good sport and he kept turning around to us and complaining that his team is horrible and they will never be any good with this group of players!

It was a flat crowd because there was no early excitement and then the team was as flat as the crowd, but roy williams couple big hits and the ellis int and owens td got everyone going.

It wasn't all of them, but I was surrounded by a bunch who were.

This one guy kept saying after EVERY Texans play..."Stop Cheating!" He gave Cowboy fans a bad name. ~sigh~
