Because they has nobody else and are allergic to drafting DTs early?
Guys like Leon Lett must go ballistic when they see the team sign guys like this for huge numbers with guarantees they didn't collect for their entire career.

And he has to coach them.

Not sure I could do it.

I was hoping more for a wasp or hornet.
Yeah. Guess he forgot the great ole adage: "float like a butterfly but sting like a be"...alas - not everyone can be the GOAT I guess. Lol. ;)

Risen Star has played y'all like a drum for years on this forum.

you have to be intelligent to see it though.

He's intelligent enough to know just how gullible people are...

Ahh yes the Talladega Knights,"them jokes" defense. Just because it is supposedly satire does not mean that there is not a point that can be spoken to. If you want to talk about intelligence then consider that. I do like the subtle "you're not as smart as you think you are" comment as if dissembling scorn and ridicule behind 'jokes' is higher thought. It reminds me of smarmy Scientologists on the Drag. You're not as clever as you think, Chachi, when you play along if the joke is on you.

He has me on ignore because my responses used to make him so mad that he would do things that would get him banned. It's at the core of why he doesn't like me. He thinks I get special treatment. I just don't play the victim card is the real rub.

He played DE at Boise St. Never understood why Dallas bulked him up and tried to convert him to DT.

They drafted him under the 3-4 of Wade and initially had him playing end before Melton pooed the bed. He moved to 3T and was nigh unblockable but struggled to finish. Marinelli dubbed him "Cinderella" or something to underscore the issue.

I personally see him as having the ability to play LDE and 3T. I wouldn't be so quick to pigeonhole him to one or the other.

the fact that people don't get what he is referring to is kind of alarming.

I really wonder whether people actually watch football or if they just get drunk and say dumb stuff all week because they have no idea what is actually happening on the field?

and the new guys, holy cow the lack of understanding of anything football related these people have shown up with is sad.

If he starts collecting sacks I guess we can call it "the butterfly effect"

I can't tell if some people in here are just that thick or if it's s shtick they are putting forth.

I used to think it was all people just liking to get a rise out of others, but I don't think that anymore.

Someone said the other day all these guys hate their life and then take it out on the cowboys and complain constantly. I imagine it is closer to that.

I agree. Risen told me on Christmas Eve that Sir Jones was sending a car with Witten, a sundae bar, and two cheerleaders to pick me up and go to Staubach's Christmas party. There
I was 8 hours later, with my new shoes on and reindeer antlers on me head. Then it dawned on me that Witten was out of town!!!!
Risen, I don't forget!
And Mr. False promises, where is my time-travel kit, Huh?? Huh?
