"Wade Phillips is a Texan."

[DragonCowboy]

Yeah, Southlake, I'm pretty sure I've been there. Isn't that area that the movie "The Rookie" was based? I might be wrong.

uh, not sure, i was just referring to the carroll dragons.

sad thing is, on friday nights, i'm the only kid in southlake who isn't at the game.

Lots of good movies coming out of Bollywood.
this video clip is great! A video that puts it all together: girls, rock, choreography, hip and edgy. It's the coolest!

Go Cowboys! Go Wade. Down with Imperialist France!

lol I hate Bollywood, I'm one of those spoiled "ABCDs" who never really watches Indian movies. I'm from Southern India (Andhra Pradesh), so I don't really watch movies from Bollywood, rather Tollywood (Telugu).

Dang. Well, come over to the dark side and watch Bollywood.
Hey, how does that guy jump backwards up to the second story? I think he was hopped up on some sort of far eastern substance. Yes?
Well, good luck to you.
I hope you learned them ABCDs good and best wishes.

Are you kidding me? Who gives a damn? Like I really care if the Cowboys coach is a Texan. However, I know people from Texas and they think they live in their own little country. So now everyone in Texas can root for good ol' boy Wade Phillips. Jerry Jones is a joke. I laugh everytime he comes on TV. Thanks Jerry, I'm so glad that Wade Phillips is a Texan. That means so much to me. Now try winning a playoff game. I actually don't mind Wade. Jerry Jones is the one embarrassing himself and I'm sure that will continue on draft day with another pile of garbage draft from our great "GM." The Cowboys are now Texas' Team and America's Joke. Must be a great day to be an Eagles fan.

The Dallas Cowboys are not a regional franchise.

I was disappointed with that slant.

I did appreciate the tradition commentary to a certain extent.

COMPLETE MILITARY HISTORY OF FRANCE

Gallic Wars - Lost. In a war whose ending foreshadows the next 2000 years of French history, France is conquered by of all things, an Italian.

Hundred Years War - Mostly lost, saved at last by female schizophrenic who inadvertently creates The First Rule of French Warfare; "France's armies are victorious only when NOT led by a Frenchman."

Italian Wars - Lost. France becomes the first and only country to ever lose two wars -- when fighting Italians.

Wars of Religion - France goes 0-5-4 against the Huguenots.

Thirty Years War - France is technically not a participant, but manages to get invaded anyway. Claims a tie on the basis that eventually the other participants started ignoring her.

War of Devolution - Tied. Frenchmen take to wearing red flower pots as chapeaux.

The Dutch War - Tied.

War of the Augsburg League / King William's War / French and Indian War -Lost, but claimed as a tie. Three ties in a row induces deluded Frogophiles the world over to label the period as the height of French military power.

War of the Spanish Succession - Lost. The War also gave the French their first taste of a Marlborough, which they have loved ever since.

American Revolution - In a move that will become quite familiar to future Americans, France claims a win even though the English colonists saw far more action. This is later known as "de Gaulle Syndrome", and leads to the Second Rule of French Warfare; "France only wins when America does most of the fighting."

French Revolution - Won, primarily due the fact that the opponent was also French.

The Napoleonic Wars - Lost. Temporary victories (remember the First Rule!) due to leadership of a Corsican, who ended up being no match for a British footwear designer.

The Franco-Prussian War - Lost. Germany first plays the role of drunk Frat boy to France's ugly girl home alone on a Saturday night.

World War I - Tied and on the way to losing, France is saved by the United States. Thousands of French women find out what it's like to not only sleep with a winner, but one who doesn't call her "Fraulein." Sadly, widespread use of condoms by American forces forestalls any improvement in the French bloodline.

World War II - Lost. Conquered French liberated by the United States and Britain just as they finish learning the Horst Wessel Song.

War in Indochina - Lost. French forces plead sickness, take to bed with the Dien Bien Flu.

Algerian Rebellion - Lost. Loss marks the first defeat of a western army by a Non-Turkic Muslim force since the Crusades, and produces the First Rule of Muslim Warfare; "We can always beat the French." This rule is identical to the First Rules of the Italians, Russians, Germans, English, Dutch, Spanish, Vietnamese and Esquimaux.

Tom Landry...Mission, TX.

Jimmy Johnson...Port Arthur, TX.

Barry Switzer...Crossett, AR.

Chan Gailey...Gainesville, GA.

Dave Campo...Groton, CT.

Bill Parcells...Englewood, NJ.

Wade Phillips...Orange, TX.


Now, I'm not going to say Wade can produce like Tom and Jimmy did, and though I've lived in Texas, I am not a Texan. I still say the fact he is a Texan is a damn good thing. I don't mind believing in omens.

A malcontent mostly.

Born in New Mexico and raised there too, with 2 Texas stops in El Paso and Ft. Stockton mixed in.

I spent a year up in Alpine, TX. Played a season of football at Sul Ross State University. Beautiful country up there.

lol. texas is nothin special. suburban culture at its worst. hmm. diners, BBQ, and track housing...yay

Please continue to perpetuate and spread this moronic stereotype as often and loudly as possible to any and all who'll listen. Then when you get laid off from your union job on the assembly line, hopefully you'll consider relocating to ANY PLACE but here.

We've had enough of your friends, family and neighbors invade our "country" over the past 30 or so years, to last a lifetime!

I disagree with most of what the guy said about texas when he mentioned suburbia, etc., mostly becuase of the spirit of the post.

But he did make a good point - the large metro areas (Dallas, Houston) are starting to suffer from that suburban mentality. You have to get a while out of there for that to go away.

 

[HTownCowboysFan]

Now that's good.



And BTW, I give a damn that Wade's a Texan -- proud of it! :starspin
