Alright You Lowlifes, The Boy From Eastern Illinois Is Back
Just a handful of moments after announcing that Tony Romo would return to action this week, Jerry Jones puffed himself up and guaranteed that the Cowboys would make the playoffs. I believe the term he used is that they would "absolutely" be there. Also, Jones said that he would welcome back Pacman J...
Install Texas Stadium End Zone in Your Back Yard (Cheerleaders Included)
In a blatant effort to rearm the Salvation Army in order to fight street to street in the urban centers and rural battlegrounds of America, Jerry Jones and a Coalition of the Willing to Appear Charitable in a Very Public Fashion have offered a unique combination of the gauche and the gaucho to the w...
The NFC East Is One Big Hugfest
Kevin Boss, Amani Toomer, and Steve Smith (pictured receiving love from Brandon Jacobs) have been the recipients of Eli Manning's three touchdown passes as we head from afternoon to evening at the Meadowlands. It hasn't been all good for the media's new favorite Manning, he's tossed an interception ...
Breaking News! Tony Romo Stands Around Watching Practice, Terrible Concerts
But that's not all - he also did some light football tossing yesterday...with the very hand he throws a football with! Yep, no news was big news at Cowboys practice on Friday, as Romo suited up but didn't do a whole heckuva lot. The Cowboys' injury report lists him as questionable (with an "America...
More Fun With Unfortunate Ad Placement
Many valuable additions to my unfortunate ad placement collection over the past two days, and let me thank you. Here's a good one from our friends at Pro Football Talk, which probably needs no introduction. The Dallas police waste no time, it appears. I also laugh each time I look at this: ...
How 'Bout Them Cowboys?
The NFL trade deadline is just 45 minutes away, and, yes, most of the time, the blockbuster deals usually involve special teams players and future draft picks and kicking tees, but this one could be somewhat intriguing. And one team that might look a whole lot different going into this weekend than ...
Terrell Owens Was Very Yellow On Monday
It's Tuesday, and Black Sports Online is still asking the musical question: T.O., WTF are you wearing??? How do you lose to the Cardinals and then show up in the locker room on Monday looking like this? You've just blown any chance you may have had with Jessica Simpson. Was T.O. striving for the elu...
Jerry Jones On Pacman Scuffle: Nothing To See Here. Move Along
First of all, I have a feeling that the movie Max Payne is going to make me want to punch someone myself. Just a hunch. That's evidently what happened on Wednesday with the Cowboys' Pacman Jones, who was at an event for the movie at a Dallas hotel which was also attended by rapper Ludacris and actor...
Boys Will Be Boys
The Artist Formerly Known As "Pacman" Jones is in the middle of another troubling incident just a couple of months after his controversial reinstatement back into the NFL. The trouble-making defensive back was reportedly involved in a scuffle with his bodyguard early Wednesday morning that resulted ...
Cowboys Would Like All Those Press Meanies To Cut Them Some Slack
After losing to the Redskins and almost blowing a 17-point lead against the Bengals, Cowboys fans are understandably nervous and the press is beginning to bore in with uncomfortable questions. But the Cowboys would like you to know that this is very upsetting to them. It's a role that Jerry Jones' t...
30 Previews In 30 Days: The Dallas Mavericks
NBA training camps have begun; the season is rapidly approaching. Can you dig it? I knew that you could. And so we continue our previews: 30 of them in 30 days. Up next is a team that passed its freshness date two seasons ago: Dallas Mavericks.When last we saw them: Finished 51-31, fourth in the Sou...
Ocho Cinco: Excuse Me, While I Kiss This Star
You've got to give props to Chad Formerly-Johnson, whose talents as a receiver are almost equal to his marketing acumen. Managing once again to somehow keep an 0-4 team in the spotlight, he vowed on Wednesday to score a touchdown and kiss the Dallas star when the Bengals play in Irving on Sunday. Bu...
Who's Sorry Now? Josh Howard Edition
So far this has been quite the year for Josh Howard. Drag racing. Smokin' the reefer. And my favorite, disrespecting the National Anthem on YouTube. OK, who among is hasn't done all three? (I'm doing two of them right now). But for Howard, high-profile small forward for the Dallas Cubans, such trans...
Meanwhile, Down At The Arlington DMV ...
Sunday night can't get here soon enough for Washington Redskins fans, one of whom slipped this little gem past the ever-vigilant profanity watchdogs at his local Department of Motor Vehicles. The plates on his other car say "Assman." Elsewhere, noting that Terrell Owens is not in the NFL top 10 in e...
Big Dope Loses All His Cowboys Stuff. Poor, Dumb Sap
You hate to see anyone become the victim of a burglary, but at the same time it's hard to feel any sympathy for Bruce Marziani. Bruce was born and raised in Philadelphia, but is a Dallas Cowboys fan, as you can see. And when he traveled to Irving for the big Monday Night showdown with the Eagles, he...
In Which We Ask The Musical Question, What The Hell Was That?
Kat DeLuna was called a "pop sensation" by the Texas Stadium announcer as she prepared to sing the National Anthem at what I'm assuming was the Monday Night game against the Eagles. She caused a sensation, all right. It's the first time I've heard an anthem singer booed who didn't unintentionally b...
The Josh Howard Question Veers Into Dark, Creepy Email Territory
We get our share of nutty email around these parts — oh, do we ever — but I'm fairly confident that it's nothing compared to what Mark Cuban finds each morning when he opens his laptop. When you're a billionaire and an NBA owner and the author of a popular blog, your inbox has to be chock full of ev...
Cowboys Love Them Wide Open Spaces
We mentioned this in morning blogdome, but felt that it needed to be expanded. See what I did there? Scientists estimate that sometime in the future, perhaps a hundred years from now, the typical human ass will be wider than a Subaru Outback. In Texas, they're already getting close. As workers begin...
Excerpt: "Boys Will Be Boys" By Jeff Pearlman
"Boys Will Be Boys", Jeff Pearlman's fascinating account of the glory days of the Cowboys dynasty is making the media rounds this week and we will happily join in to promote it. It is ridiculously entertaining. Yes, Charles Haley is the star, but there is so much more to it than just his dong-flappi...
Mark Cuban Wants You to Know: "Cellphone Cameras Are Not Your Friends."
Cuban went after defenseless cellphone cameras in the wake of Josh Howard's performance during the National Anthem before Allen Iverson's flag-football game. By the way, how is Allen Iverson's flag-football game not televised and how are all the players not mic'ed up? Couldn't this be a television ...
