Horrible loss, horrible feeling this morning. What I don't get though, is how the media proclaimed us SB front runners before the year started. NOT the team, the media. Now, did the team buy into it? Maybe, but that's neither here nor there. I'm sick and tired of lead story's on our team, who is 4-3 mind you, and how we are falling apart, and "there's trouble in big d" blah blah blah. And yet, the Colt's are 3-3 and lost big, the Saints are 3-4 and lost big, but they don't break down film on these teams to show how they are "falling" apart.
I should be used to it by now being a Dallas fan for 30 years, but c'mon, i'ts sickening. Maybe all of this will keep the players quiet, and keep them focused. Eh, maybe not.

This is AMERICAS TEAM for a reason.

Owens getting a papercut would be bigger news than the Browns firing their head coach.

What did you expect? The media to still be on the Cowboys' jock? This is just the result of Jerry's marketing. He demanded a place in the spotlight and well, the spotlight is now showing a Cowboys team in disarray. You can't tell everyone to not pay attention to you after trying so hard to get everyone to pay attention to you.

This is nothing new throughout our history-even through the 3 5-11 Campo years when supposedly noone gave 2 *****'s about the Cowboys anymore, they still got tons of media publicity.

The same was true, good or bad, before Jerry bought the team.

This just goes with being the Cowboys. The media loves to ride the jock when it's convient and loves, even more, to be able to laugh at, spit on, and mock the team when they're doing poorly.

What kills me is that the media screams for a fiery leader, but when TO yells, it is him breaking up the team. Also, can they stop using the new stadium opening up as a reason for some of our moves. Like Jerry is sitting in his office working out the Roy Williams trade thinking, "if I can get Roy, I can sell tickets for next year." Or how Mort thinks we have to change coaches because we are opening up a new stadium. I guess they don't call them mediots for nothing.

Wondering why anyone would even care what the media says, and especially the day after this team has just melted down!

Don't shoot the messenger...Its the team dude!
