Five Stages Of Grief

Denial and Isolation.
At first, we tend to deny the loss has taken place, and may withdraw from our usual social contacts. This stage may last a few moments, or longer.

Anger.
The grieving person may then be furious at the person who inflicted the hurt (even if she's dead), or at the world, for letting it happen. He may be angry with himself for letting the event take place, even if, realistically, nothing could have stopped it.

Bargaining.
Now the grieving person may make bargains with God, asking, "If I do this, will you take away the loss?"

Depression.
The person feels numb, although anger and sadness may remain underneath.

Acceptance.
This is when the anger, sadness and mourning have tapered off. The person simply accepts the reality of the loss.

I'd say, as a board, we are at stage 2 right now.

Not me, I've been at the final stage since we signed Wade - day 1.

He's not capable and I was never gonna kid myself into thinking otherwise.

I said lets give him a chance, but I see now that I was wrong. He's got to go!

Maybe, the majority of the board. I processed my grief for the 'boys quickly. I'm already at stage 5.

I'm with you. I'm just going to enjoy some quality playoff games and look forward to April.

Bingo. I'd go back and get my post from when it was announced but it's pretty far back there, but I've been waiting for Wade to be gone since the day he was named Dallas' head coach.

And I interpret "capable" as being able to win a Super Bowl. I have never, and do not, believe Wade can win one.

I must be in denial because I keep checking the TV listings to see when the Cowboys play this weekend.

I went and found it. Wasn;t that hard since I don't have many posts:

Well jesus H, Wade phillips head coach of America's Team, or, what WAS America's Team.

I guess if he's good enough for the gosh darn SD Chargers, the Cowboys should be drooling for him.

Welcome to the world of mediocrity Dallas fans.

I can't believe so much has changed over the years where this is even remotely acceptable to folks. Oh, and we can promote Garrett in a few years......I'm just pumped about now......and the future!!!

Well, in that case, would you say that a coach can only be called "capable" if his team does win a Super Bowl? For instance, would you say that John Fox has not proven himself capable, since he has never won? What makes someone capable?

Man I'm just going on gut and the past. Wade Philips is what I consider to be a generic, off the shelf coach. Comparing him to others etc.., I don't see the point. He stands and falls on his own, imo.

I can't spend my time worrying about John Fox and rating him or any other coaches who are not currently unemployed. He's not our coach. What I consider him to be has no relevance, imo.

Not trying to be argumentative, I just don't see the connection.

I was at stage 5 at the end of the 3rd qtr. As a matter of fact, the TV got shut off, and honestly, I did not see that rest of the game.

The last reminder of that game is seeing Wade standing there with that dumb, clueless, carefree look on his face...no emotion, no balls!

I've vented enough. I'm at stage 5. Taking from the most annoying phrase used today, "It is what it is."

I don't know, do you mean you don't think that he's capable of winning a playoff game, or a Super Bowl?
