Its interesting that people still today don't get that Miller was not involved in DALLAS COUNTY negotiations for the stadium.

You are certainly a regular apologist for our pothole fill promising- Dallas Observer- columnist excuse for a mayor.

She is notably anti-sports and anti-business in both her column writing career and her flawed tenure as mayor. Blaming the county commissioners for the move of the Cowboys is true only to the extend that they were the last men standing after a lack of leadership from the mayor and her inability to deal with a hopelessly self-dealing 14 member city council left the Cowboys preferred Industrial Blvd. site in the dust and a half-baked Fair Park plan was the only Dallas area competing(?) for the Cowboys venue.

Her honor, as a columnist, was an agressive opponent of the brilliant development of the American Airline Center, Victory Plaza and W hotel complex. She wanted to make sure no millionaires made money working with the city.

The Cowboys got a better deal by far in Arlington with a mayor and city council that care about their city, and Dallas got a 130 million dollar architecturally stunning bridge to a slum over the Trinity Basin.

I'm sure Madame No is shocked there's no move to rename it the Laura Miller bridge.

Arlington is an extra 30 minute drive from where the stadium would have been in downtown Dallas if you live in Plano. It matters to me.

Jerry lands final jab on Madame No

Poor Laura Miller is leaving the Dallas mayor's office with egg on her face. Great aim, Jerry!!!

Madame No didn't figure out football was pretty important around these parts -- and to the local economy -- until it was too late. Dallas had first dibs on JerryWorld, but she screwed that up by playing hardball with the rich hick from Arkansas. You might have heard about the construction underway in Arlington.

But Miller was gonna go out in a blaze of football glory anyway, or so she thought when she blabbed last month that Texas Tech and Oklahoma State would move their series to the Cotton Bowl. Too bad the schools hadn't agreed on the deal.

Jerry jumped on the opportunity. He hopped on his fancy jet and made a pitch to Tech bigwigs that they oughta play in his palace. And I'd be willing to bet a nickel that Tech-OSU joins the Cotton Bowl Classic, Big 12 title games and Baylor-Notre Dame as featured attractions at JerryWorld.

"Once Jerry Jones got involved, it became complicated," said Madame No, who probably shares Steve Blow's opinion that Jerry is a "weasel."

Hey, it's not Jerry's fault that Madame No wasn't wise enough to make him a bidness partner. But that is the lasting memory of Miller's stint as mayor.

YES!!!

I hope to see Jimmy Clausen throw 8 TD's against the Baylor Bums...

Brady would have threw 9 though....
