Who cares if I really wear my hair like that?
It doesn't have any affection on my grasp of football knowledge (which, and I don't me to sound ridiculing, you obviously do not have).
During the pre-law days,
I took some psychological classes regarding psychology and sociology (study of people in the social atmosphere) and it appears that you're grasping at straws out of thin air because you just don't have any factual arguments to present regarding your team (Cowboys) vs. my team (Buccanneers - SB XXXIIIX Champs).
That's ok. I've obviously got your skin boiling. Don't mean to offend.

Pittman4Two;2187087 said:Good morning,
I've just got done analyzating some game film from the Pewter Pirate-sized thrashing of the Miami Dolphins on Saturday. After reading through the rest of the results in the Tampa Tribune, I noticed the Dallas "Super Bowl XXXXIII Champions" Cowboys got destroyed by the San Diego Chargers.
It's tough not to watch HBO on Wednesday nights and not get inundated with all of this Cowboys hoopla and "the best team in the NFC Conference" diet tribe.
Don't get me wrong...I'm not here to bash, yet I'm not here to criticize your team either. The Bucs had their share of mistakes, but this little ol' NFC Southern Champion team had NO penalties...that's right...ZERO!
Here's a list of things I think might have happened and what your team should try to improvise on:
1) Get Brad Johnson more reps - As the case in 2002, Brad needs many snaps to get his head in the game and focus. You see how 2002 turned out.
2) Don't Give in to Terrell Owens (TO) - Gruden knows how to handle superstars like Joey Galloway and Ike Hilliard. You make them feel like part of the team and do not give into their "me first" ideology.
3) Take the Glazer Approach - Jerry needs to take a tip from Joel and Bryan...don't get involved with "high dollar" superstars. They showed last season that a team of above-average NFL League-caliber players and genious coaching is all you need to have success.
So, my friends, there's a couple things the front office could work on to improve the Cowboys.
You guys are on the right track though. Keep in mind, that this is only the first week of preseasonal games. Sure, the Bucs are one game ahead of you already, but there is time to make up some ground.
Thoughts?

CrazyCowboy, I could go on forever.
Yes, I'm a fan of the Buccanneers but that doesn't mean I don't recognize other successful teams out there in the NFL League.
Pittman4Two;2189153 said:"Aug 10, 2008 - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers held the Miami Dolphins to just six points Saturday night while putting up 17 of their own in their preseason-opening win. The Bucs committed no turnovers, no penalties, and outgained the Dolphins by nearly 100 yards, 295 to 198."

It's a beautiful thing, isn't it?
EDIT: You've read that right...295 yards...that's almost 300.

silverbear;2189580 said:Which is almost respectable...
Almost... then you take a look at the stats sheet, and find out that your heroes averaged all of 3.9 yards per play, which is PATHETIC... my team only had 285 yards, but averaged 5.0 yards per play-- against a much better opponent...
Then again, we Cowboys fans are kinda spoiled, having seen a REAL offense in action last year... you know, the kind that averaged over 365 yards per game, 3rd best in the league, and 28.4 points per game, 2nd best in the league... that's 7.5 points and nearly 40 yards more per game than your gang that couldn't shoot straight...
Pittman4Two;2190134 said:Silverbear, you're going way overboard their compadre.
You're forgetting that Bill Parcells is in charge of those Dolphins down there in Miami. That's worth 6 wins right there. You add in a healthy Ricky Williams, that's another 4 wins. Now Chad Henne is in there, that's another 3-4 wins. All of the sudden you have a lot more wins in Miami than last year. I wouldn't doubt if they challenged the Chargers for the AFC Conference title this season.
As for the Cowboys stats last year, very impressive. They are really coming along. I don't know what shooting has to do with anything, however.
As far as another appearance comment about my looks, I'm happy with how I look. That's all that matters.
