I recently bought a new car. Before I threw down that kind of cash, I went through an evaluation process to make sure I would make the right choice. There were a few different cars that appealed to me, but I really had my heart set on a BMW 328i. My wife however, didn't care for my choice. Maybe it was because of the price or maybe she was just committed to the every-day task of denying me of the happiness I deserve. As we discussed this further, I assured her that I would put all the car choices through a thorough analysis and eliminate any candidates that failed to meet our requirements. It would have to satisfy the following conditions: price range, mileage, good fuel economy, strong safety rating, reasonable maintenance cost, roomy, and have some decent get-up-and-go capability. Since the BMW was an expensive investment, she felt confident that I would never find one that would satisfy all the requirements. Little did she know that with some patience and diligent searching, eventually I would locate one that made the cut.

I was wrong.

While I was able to get the price/mileage to intersect, I could not get around the fact that a BMW comes with a high maintenance cost. True to my word, I made the decision based on which car graded out the highest. I bought a Nissan Altima.

While it wasn't the car I was hoping for, after a couple weeks went by -€” I was really happy with my decision. And that is the same feeling that I typically have about the Cowboysfirst-round draft picks in recent years. While my BMW-type picks over the last few years have consisted of players like Star Lotulelie, Aaron Donald, and Alvin Dupree, I have been very pleased with the choices the Cowboys have made. And with the 2016 NFL Draft offering up a lot of luxury cars available to them, the Cowboys again have to be meticulous in putting together their board so that the right player is selected.

I really like some of the writers over there at BTB. Tom Ryle and OCC are really good and Drummond and Rabblerouser were before they left.

This guy isn't.

And his shoe-horn attempt for Jalen Ramsey to cornerback makes it only more obvious.
