dear mom, why bill parcells irks me so

[iceberg]

Jerry,

I feel your pain. It's the same as I've been saying for years. During our down years, we made ourselves feel better by stating, "At least we're not the Bengals". For some reason, that statement made people feel better about themselves, and continuous 5-11 seasons.

I too want a return to the dominant ways. I'm tired of the 3 point wins and 2 point loses. I want this team to kick everyone's azzes for the next 10, 20, 30 freakin' years!!!

Tom Landry did it. He dominated the NFL for 25 straight seasons. Ok, ok ... different time, different era. Doesn't matter ... no one else from that time and era did it. Only him.

I'm tired of complaining about our FG kicker or our punter, or the refs. It should NEVER come down to that. Jimmy Johnson's Super Bowl teams never relied on a kicker to win games for us. None of our victories were decided by a freakin referee's bad call.

I don't know what to say bout BP either. In the end, I see this team finishing 9-7 and out of the playoffs. That's sad ... I'd like to believe we are a better team than 3 wins above last year's 6-10 record.

Jerry, I feel your pain. But I still plan to stand next to you when we win our next Super Bowl !!!

we'd love to be the bengals this year, wouldn't we? good example. this won't last and sooner or later their "greatness" will fade back again. i guess they all do but we've been in a rut for awhile and we're not used to it.

and i'll stand next to ya when the WTC is rebuilt, my friend.

and so far i can't forgive parcells for making sure we're putting everything into 1 shot and watch it fizzle cause the fuse couldn't get lit. meanwhile we all stand around and bicker about how great we could be if that freaking fuse would just light.

Its not the sentiment that's the problem, the problem is that its all sentiment and no facts. Show me 5 teams that broke camp this year with more rookies making the team. Show me 5 more teams that are playing more players or 2nd year players

All I'm saying is back it up.

No long diatribes. No long hypotheticals. No illusions of what used to be. A list of 5 teams. List them. Spend half the time you used for your ***** an moan session to do look up some facts. .

Franchises playing for one year do not have this much cap space.

Franchises playing for one year do not break camp with so many young players.

Franchises playing for one year do not trade down for a future #1 pick in the followig year's draft.

One of the major reasons our offensive line is so bad is because the Cowboys didn't sign a veteran band aid offensive tackle like Scott Gragg, instead he went with a rookie 6th round draft pick. Does that sound like someone playing for one year? Of course not, and youre smart enough to know it.

The hate is coming through loud and clear.

if you *know* you're not going to get the answer you're looking for, isn't it kinda foolish to go looking for it?

i also don't really care what other teams are doing - i care what we're doing and from a basic overall direction we've got some things doing well, and we've got the biggest position being sat on in a "one-shot" fashion.

i'm talking my opinion, roshidude. that's all. i ain't gonna go "prove it to me" in games because i just don't care what you think overall, i guess. you can either give me latitude for how i think and i'll return the favor or you can get all PROVE IT BOY! on me and i'll just laugh and move on.

ha ha.

i usually do. many typos are caused by my having a cornea transplant awhile back and my left eye needs correction now and my right eye doesn't, so the screen isn't always as easy to see. that one i was just ********.

 

[Sarge]

BadAttitude, ScottCase, etc.

lol - makes sense in retro.

 

[iceberg]

Graney, another New Yorker..........

were you around when he said he'd fight anyone at any time? some mike in louisanna said he'd do it, so graney said he couldn't afford the flight. so i said i'd pay for it cause i knew he still wouldn't do it?

man, what a loser.
