Just a thought...

Suppose the Cowboys find themselves with Romo at the helm and meet the resurging Patriots in the Superbowl (far off, I know, but indulge me...)

Would today's media focus on the dynasty v. dynasty aspect (a story that writes itself) or would they focus more on Parcells v. Belichick?

My guess is the latter, as today's sports media seems more interested in delivering stories that disparage someone personally, no matter how innocuous ("Bill P. can't win without Belichick," see all T.O. coverage) as opposed to historical hard-hitting pieces that we used to see.

What say you?

It'd be all about Bill vs. Bill.

Then as a side note, Patriots are the new dynasty.

Oh yea, Cowboys won a few back in the day but more about TO.

Bill vs. Bill

Brady/Romo common thread.. (Bledsoe's backups becoming Super Bowl QB's)

Bledsoe and his thoughts on the whole thing..

Dallas dynasty/New England dynasty..

TO back in the Super Bowl..

Roy killing Julius's brother Thomas the week before in the NFC Championship game and how Julius and Roy's relationship has been affected by it..

Lighten up Francis.

Sorry, whether he's joking or not (I'm sure he was the former), I'd rather not see death and football in the same sentence. It's just not necessary.

Bill vs. Bill for sure, our dynasty died long ago.


This is it exactly. Parcells is the face of our club, even now. Nobody looks at the Cowboys and thinks Dynasty anymore, except Cowboy fans themselves.

Agreed. Bill vs. Bill is TOP story.

Then a bunch of sub stories

Boys Dynasty - Pats Dynasty
Romo - Brady

A story about TO for sure LOL
Can Parcells do it without his coaches from the past?
Can Belicheck do it without his coaches from the past?

Well we knock off Patriots and kill their Dynasty and start ours... and dont forget that we would be first to 6 SB's... that would dwarf any story about Pats.... we could say they were holding trophy until we got back;)

I would not mind being witness to that at all. Gotta do it thou. That's the tricky part. Of course, the other side of that coin is what happens if we were to lose to the Pats in a SuperBowl? That would solidify them as the most dominant Dynasty. I'd hate that.

I don't agree with this. I feared losing everytime I stepped on the football field or really, the mat, track, court or diamond. I fear losing even today. You can't let fear control you. You must control the fear but it is a very healthy thing, IMO, to have a certain amount of fear in any situation where there is something to be won and lost.

As for discussing the Pats and the Cowboys, that's not fear. I'm simply pointing out possabilities for the sake of discussion. Nothing more.
