Gonna have a 10 Oz ribeye. Medium with mushrooms and onions. Salud!
I'm ordering a LanZhou spicy noodle soup for the night and an extra for the wife when she comes in tomorrow night.
Sigh...

Ready to move forward. Scared to move forward. I know I have no choice, but to move forward.
This sucks. Sorry guys.

Venting.

Probably same people that wanted merriman

His first step was so fast he go a lot of bogus penalties that game film showed he was not guilty of

BP said that in his second year
I remember he'd have a tendency to disappear when the Cowboys needed him the most, in crucial point during games. And the common excuse was "he is double/triple teamed".
He was much more consistent in Denver than he was in Dallas, tho I stopped following him by then.

Ware has been such a high character man through every step of his public life. His work ethic is extraordinary. Ware is one of the athletes you can point to as a genuinely positive role model. Watching his speech today, I bet he'd still be good for a handful of plays a game.

Sad that Ware had to leave Dallas not just to win a SB with someone else, but couldn't even get to a conference finals.
Show you how poor this organization has been this Century.

Great speech....a very close friend of mine and former scout, RIP, told me about Ware when he was in Troy....I didn't believe him...another close friend that is at university of Nebraska is close to him and Ware is his son's godfather. They both said that he is a quality person....I'm glad I was wrong about him. Go Cowboys!
Music to our ears!

The turd GM really screwed that team. 2007 could’ve been the start of a nice run, instead he killed them instantly. Every single decision was crap from the second Parcells left.

Great job reserving a seat for his fallen teammates. A player very deserving of the HOF.

Part of that new generation of retired Cowboys who never sniffed a Super Bowl with a star on their head. :mad:

At least he got one with Denver. Great player. Was fun watching that 3-4 D that the Tuna built. Definitely our #11 twenty years ago.

When he said his choices for coach was between Wade Phillips and Norv Turner....that was it in a nutshell. And then he forced Garrett on Wade.

You knew once he hired Garrett before the HC he was more concerned with controlling them than he was actually winning games. Even if he hired Phillips and let him pick his coaches. Sure not the ideal situation, but better than him secretly coaching the team from behind the curtain which ended in typical Jerry fashion. A complete disaster within 3 years.
