From an eyewitness account of someone who was actually at the clinic where Wade Phillips allegedly made this comment:
Quote:

Wade Phillips was introduced and was walking to the podium while he was there was a gentleman up front yelling over and over GET YOUR RING FINGER READY! GET YOUR RING FINGER READY! he yelled it at least 10 times. Wade looked at the table and then went on speaking, toward the end of the speech the guy starts yelling it again GET YOUR RING FINGER READY! Wade Phillips gets a smirk on his face and says yes get your ring finger ready.

Now the individual who reported this was actually sitting at the table right next to the guy yelling "get your ring finger ready".
I understand the skepticism on my team regarding the post season. They have earned that distinction them selves. But in the same context I seem to remember a team that went 13-3 in 1996/97 season and lost in the same round of the playoffs that Dallas did last year.
But that team then went on to win back to back Super Bowls in 1998 and 1999. So I take solace in that fact.
