Scandrick is such a boob...

But I'm glad these guys are getting into the spirit of the trip.

On another pitch nearby, Cowboys defensive players took some soccer lessons from the pros. One of the Tottenham players showed Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick how to kick the soccer ball with the side of his foot instead of using all toes to try to score on Cowboys rookie cornerback Tyler Patmon in goal.

Scandrick’s next few attempts went well wide.

Suddenly, this young boy wearing Nikes takes his shot with Scandrick in goal.

“Come on, little man, I’ll take your Euros,” Scandrick said, taunting the boy. Someone yells at Scandrick, “It’s Pounds. Not Euros.”

The boy, who wasn’t even waist-high to Scandrick, kicked the soccer ball into the corner of the net, right past the Cowboys cornerback who never moved.

All Scandrick could do was smile.

Meanwhile, Cowboys tight end Jason Witten tried to use a local expression with one of the boys when he dropped a “cheerio.” And the boy gave Witten a strange look.

It does seem like Scandrick hasn't been playing quite as well the past couple of games, but I thought he at least could cover a stationary goal.

Because you know playing soccer is a great way to prepare for a game of American football.


I kid, I kid. No seriously, someone had to say it. We've lost two in a row.

I can't say that I really keep up with which countries converted to the Euro. I would guess that most people in England have some Euros laying around from when they were in Euro countries.

Yes, the local sport talk radio guys were interviewing a Cowboys' player last week and reference Big Ben. The player paused and the radio guy came back and said, I mean Big Ben in England not the QB.

Its been like that for years. The Brits are smart as hell not to throw in with the EU currency.

Yep, really SUCKS having to pay through the nose in the UK for anything. Eating at McDonalds there is basically equivalent to going out for a nice dinner here in the US at somewhere like, oh, Olive Garden or Red Lobster or something like that. Total ripoff of Americans in the UK. Utterly and completely. I LOVE the UK and love visiting it but HATE going there and having to pay for anything.
