Thankfully your ok, I was worried you got taken hostage in one of those strip clubs in Las Vegas. I know you go to Vegas a lot, and well you know "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" .
Not everything ends up staying in Vegas... So- did I miss anything cool in my absence?
Anything awesome happen on this particular strip of electronic real estate?

With the Hardy suspension reduced by more than half, the last significant roster change is done. I don't see that dream RB coming down the aisle. With that and the football season directly ahead of us in 3 weeks, it's time to guess the Cowboys record next year.

vs NYG - win
@ PHI - win
vs ATL - win
@ NO - win
vs NE - win
@ NYG - win
vs SEA - loss
vs PHI - loss
@ TB - win
@ MIA - loss
vs CAR - win
@ WAS - win
@ GB - loss
vs NYJ - win
@ BUF - win
vs WAS - win

12-4 and the usual suspects panic after that MIA game.

It's just an effort in futility until after the pre-season games. We don't know much at all at this point.

I noticed that 1-3 slide. Should I consider that strategically placed? :)

I initially got to 13-3 but then thought that one of the games that I figure us as favorites will be a loss. MIA has an excellent defense and an up and coming QB. Plus Risen and co will need something to whine about during the season.

We know a lot more than before the draft and now that the meat of FA is over. Plus with the suspensions better defined that is also more info.

Do we have enough to make a sure guess? Of course not but even right before week 1 that will not be the case. Good thing the point here is to look forward and get a feel for the season as opposed to being correct.

Nothing to write home about. A couple of your regular verbal battles, some average news, cowboys predictions. But this Hardy signing is the biggest thing that happened here since grilled cheese.

11-5. The Seattle game could easily be a L though.. but 10-6 should be good enough too. I'm assuming Brady plays too.

The team got one of the Hardy Boys? No mystery will be too big for them now!
By the Gads! I wish I would have restocked the bar today! All I have is rotgut and a palate that has no taste for it.
I may retire early tonight...

The board has not been the same with you gone. Your wit and intellect were missed and their was no leadership on the board with you gone.

Think I will break open some bubbly to celebrate your return to the land know as Dallas.

Those verbal battles still fresh? I'd like to interject my slice of warped perspective into them and slip out the back Jack, make a new plan Stan...
******! I can't get that song out of my head!

We don't know how good the running game is going to be or the defensive line. Pretty important details. Can't make a prediction without knowing those 2 things. People are just wasting their time in doing so.

I'd take HS football from my alma mater at this point and they are terrible.

Isn't there a second- or third-rate league going on somewhere? I know that some other now-defunct leagues played during the NFL's offseason so as not to compete. :p

I think we end up with a fluky loss to NE that puts us on the map this season.

Seems a little odd to call a possible loss to the defending Super Bowl champions a fluky loss.. lol. Do you see us having a good shot against them?

Held hostage by a group of Japanese harajuku groupies. They plied me with booze and quaaludes for days. It took everything I had just to leave the room I was in.
The sight of the sun burned my retinas three steps outside.
