The peanut gallery thinks it's unfair to ask for "just one...single instance where jerry blew smoke regarding the draft" and then, when one single instance is presented, it is brushed off as unconvincing?

:confused:


The only smoke Jerry was blowing came from that big fattie he was puffin' on in the war room.

who exactly would you have taken? I don't see any FS guys who were there for us at 1 or 2

I'm not a Dallas scout. Those who are had four rounds to find someone more competent that Watkins or Davis. The point is that we were in no position to "stand pat." Even less so this year, but Jerry is making the same worrisome noises. Bluffing? We'll see.

Is there anything you like about this team?

Don't conflate "management" with "team." And you're not exactly Little Miss Sunshine either.

Hell I'm Mr. "Norman f'ing Vincent Peale" compared to you... Geez. Yeah I *****ed and moaned about:

Quincy C.
Eddie George
Nors
Bledsoe
Parcells
Roy

But I've managed to say goods things about:

Romo
Newman
Julius Jones
Petitti
Watkins

My *****ing and moaning is often balanced out by my koolaid drinking spurts over guys like Watkins who isn't as big a POS as you've implied.

I'd like to see you come on here and do just a little "fair & balanced". I can take the *****ing and moaning if we got a little, "You know I think player 'xyz' is pretty good" OR "You know I think the 2007 Cowboy team is going to be a playoff contender".

And that worked out sooooo well.

the only FS worth drafting high was Danieal Manning, that really did anything

the Bears took him before our pick in the 2nd round

I take silence on a subject as approval from bbgun. You know the saying, "If you only have nice things to say, don't say anything at all."

Well, he did have the best season statistically compared to his fellow draftees.

Hell, I was giddy as a schoolgirl with that fat two-game lead in December. Romo sig and everything. Assuming the NFC remains roughly the same, the team is a playoff contender, but not championship worthy. If it were, Bill would have stuck around one more year. He knew better.

While I do not consider it an example at all... Jerry seems to consider trading every single pick in every single draft.

Now that your partner in crime "Summerisfunner" has shed his cheesy handle... maybe it's time you manned up too? :)

hey! I'm on your side here buddy :mad:

It was a joke, but I meant that if you're not *****ing about a particular signing, etc., I assume you're happy with it.

I'm an agnostic when it comes to Watkins. I think we all are. We have no idea if he's really the answer. But this is a good year for safeties, hence the first round temptations.
