thats the key to this whole mess, even bradie james and T O said it one day, the players have to figure out whom to talk to and not talk too, even most of the players admitted dont talk to ed werder and espn.
But what happened, a week after that, the players are talking to espn again
the players are their own worst enemy. The players dont realize just like jacquee taylor said, that they are loooking at the whole issue wrong. Like bradie james whom got upset about not being elected to the pro bowl llast year.
Bradie pouted for 2 games after that, instead of focusing on football, not pro bowl, or stats, or money, but focus on football totally, unselfishly. If the players focus on football, championships, nothing else. Then the awards will come, the money, the stats, the pro bowl honors.
Look at the way the 91 cowboys that went to the playoff game against the bears and won, the next year more players were honored to the pro bowl in 1992 and 1993, later, more players were lost to free agency due to salary cap money, but those other players got their money too. '
thats the whole dang issue with this team, they think because their dallas cowboys players with the star on their helmet, their entiltled to honors, money, without the hard work, sacrifice, team work. Then, those players forget what and how they got to the 2007 season 13-3. It was due to the hard work, discipline, dedication, blood and sweat that bill parcells instilled in them. The Cowboy players were peaked at endurance, work effort, then good ole wade comes in, lets them not practice hard, work hard, and by end of november their hard bodies from all of those years of hard work underneath bill parcells wore off. Their bodies got soft and flabby, they didnt go in and do their cardivacular work. Even nate newton said, you could tell by the 3rd to 4th quarter in the Cowboys Giants playoff game in Dallas in 2007 season, they ran out of gas.
Why did some of this happen, first good ole wade, didnt have those players bodies toned in december, no hitting in practice or working out in pads at all in deceomber, because the players were griping and complining how hard parcells had worked them. Then Sparano goes off to Miami that weekend to interview for head coaching job, while garrett goes off and interviews for head coaching job for 2 other nfl teams. So, your tough coaches that held the cowboy players accountable were gone that weekend. Along with tony romo going to you know where partying, whiile he should have been in dallas seeing sure that the players were getting ready for that game, studying, looking at film, doing their weight room work, etc. Now, your leader of this team, took that approach.
What does that say to you, to me it says, its no big deal, if we win its fine, if we loose, we will come back next year, thats the attitude of this team, besides like good ole wade said, we did win 13-3 season, and we did win a playoff game, it was the bye week game.
Thats the problem on this team, and has been for 12 years or more. And now instead of players being held accountable, having to tell the fans why they lost, and dont win in december, and have a laid back attitude, the cowboy players always lay an egg in december, then they start talking and pointing fingers at other players but not themselves.
