There are many kinds of caviar. Beluga is king. And not the whale, the sturgeon.
I know. I've had them all and from $7 tins to $7500 tins.
I've had them prepped by Russian nationals. I've had them prepped by Michelin star chefs.

Not bragging. I mean it.
I've had the best and it's just not for me, I guess.

Mmm... something to watch Sunday night, for sure.
One thing I've watched is this notice that an OL didn't practice and might be a little banged up. GB's Bulaga, RT, was nursing an injury and that PHL DL went to work on him and got him out early enough in the game to help wreck their run game.

That happens a lot. These DC's are masters at techniques to put pressure on the injury and Schwartz the Weasel is one of the best at that. He's one scary looking dude. He's got those eyes and he's either stoned or evil but he's always crafty and from a D standpoint he's almost as good at Belichick at spotting the weakness. If they do a remake of the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, he could play Angel Eyes. Martin's back better not be a problem when the Cowboys play them he'll bring Cox and a LB at him.

Wish I could have the opportunity to watch a game with you.
Probably be a total gas.

All 32 teams wanted to sign Collins after the draft. Jerry didn't find him. He just happened to own the Cowboys.
Yeah because signing free agents and being able to sell them on your organization (the one you built) is not a valuable skill.

Nevermind we can point to a history of very good draft success if you want to be obtuse.

Go sit in the corner.

I mean, I can't say who got the first offer in but he wasn't short on offers. He may have gotten one from every team.

Don't know why Jerry should deserve any praise whatsoever for that. Collins wanted to be a Cowboy.
The way I remember it, most of the other teams wanted to wait and see if he was going to be charged before giving him an offer, and Jerry stepped up. Am I remembering incorrectly?

From what I recall of the draft talk, before he had to drop out, was that most saw him as a G in the NFL and he didn't want that. I think Booger said "I anoint thee Tackle" and closed the deal.

While a lot of *****ing goes on about him being owner and GM, this is one time that was a real benefit. When the man tells you something, you can take that to the bank and T's make more than G's.
I don't remember that part, TBH. I just remember he wasn't drafted because teams were worried they'd have a convict instead of an offensive lineman.
