Adrian Hasenmayer....the author of this dribble. A cursory web investigation reveals he might be from Philadelphia. I'll bet it grates every week to have to rank the Giants and Cowboys at the top. He probably hates the Cowboys just slightly more.

I would not get too worked up over this. For one, you know FOX is throwing that out there to get attention. Read the notations on the Power Ranking. Everybody and their dog has Dallas #1 but Fox. If Fox introduces their ratings and Dallas is #1, then you read it. You say" Ahhhh..... Cool!" and you go on with your life. You pour your second cup of coffee and you never think about it again. However, if you say the Gmen are #1, you make mention of the fact that the Cowboy Fan base has their collective blood boiling over the fact that they are not #1 and you just let ride, you have a great deal of attention. Plus, you get all the East Coast NYrs clicking in to check it out as well. You start feeding the animal that is media hype. Fox is building towards a mega rating game. We have Washingtion, Cincy, Az, Rams, Bucs and then NY in game 9. Giants have Hawks, Brownies, 9rs, Steelers and then us. We could easily be 9-0 come week nine. NY has a pathetically easy schedule this year. The only team they should have to really worry about in that stretch are the Steelers. Even so, 8-1 is still a pretty good match up. Not as good as two 9-0 teams but still pretty good.

Don't be lead by the nose so easily. Every body knows we are the best team in Football right now.

I have no problem with that. The Superbowl champs are 3-0. Until they lose (provided we don't) they should be #1.

And I quote "The Super Bowl champs may have lost some luster in some folks' eyes, but not mine."

Thats about all I read about this garbage spewing out of Foxsports.com

That's OK. Just keep underestimating Dallas...like Green Bay did, like Philly did, like CLeveland di--no, Cleveland knew they were toast the minute the game started.

I'd like to be the 3rd best team on the charts if you ask me. This way some of the attention can get off of us and on the other teams. But hey, we're the Cowboys and the world pays attention to us when we're even kinda good, so now that we're dynamic and awesome, the world can't get enough of us.
You know that's impossible no matter what our ranking is.

Everyone knows the deal.

There's nothing wrong with the undefeated Super Bowl champions being ranked No. 1.

Dallas can be numero uno all they want. What good does that do them? Its hard to beat a good team twice, and damn near impossible to do it a third time. Spoken by the wisest of wise men. Check out last year. Holds true for the Pats and Giants series too.
My point is, dont go gettin a big head cause you have some success in the division early. I will revisit this topic later on.

That was last season. They are clearly not the same team this year. I guess we will see what happens with Dallas plays them. :rolleyes:

I don't want a ranking. I want to continue to see the Cowboys get better every week, while taking one game at a time.
