He must have been going 100 to 120 miles per hour. And that was my dream disappearing in front of me.”

Surely someone will give this guy the opportunity to fulfill his dream of going 100-120 mph in a Beamer with 20's on it.

This guy needs a severe beating with a baseball bat. Lazy, entitled douchebag.

Dipshit didn't know an omen when he saw one. He should have told the driver to turn around. Too late now.

he sounds like he was selfish then and he's still selfish now. the guy doesn't get it. his personal stats are more important than wins. air time on espn is more important than his team. having big money is more important than earning a job in the nfl. he's an entitled a-hole who's shown that he's learned nothing. he walked away because he felt like he deserved better. it's his own fault.

Thats funny I remember it the other way. Kiper made the colts look silly.

that year he did. too lazy to look it up right now though. I think he spent a lot more time on studying college players and not a ton of other people were doing that back then. now there's an entire industry of college/nfl draft experts and he spends a lot more time on camera year round, instead of spending an entire year for one night on espn. he's still good, but i think nfldraftscout (now owned by cbs) has surpassed him in accuracy now.

Sorry to go off subject, but it is insane how many analysts are saying that the Cowpukes are going to be back next year with Romo and don't see this or the other issues that they had this season.

Houston, which had a lot of similarities to the Cowpukes (suspect running game, stud WR, and very good defense) had their share of QB issues, yet they were able to remain competitive in a wide-open AFC South. I mean, Brandon Weeden and TJ Yates were able to win games for Houston.

Honestly, I'm glad the Cowpukes are so dependent on their aging/now-injury-prone QB. And it is going to be insanely fun for us Redskins fans when Jerry brings Johnny Boozeball to be their future QB.

I think we need to go for defensive stars in this draft, even if it means taking some risk.

Examples:

1st Round - Robert Nkemdiche, DT Ole Miss. Great athlete, penetrator, perfect NFL body. The risk is that he has exhibited immature behavior off the field. Ranked #22 on Draft Scout Big Board.

2nd Round - Su'a Cravens, OLB Sothern Cal. Born to be an NFL SS. Great size, speed, excellent tackler, nose for the ball, termendous athlete. The risk? Not that much, really. At USC he played a hybrid OLB/SS position. Ranked #49 on DS BB.

Check out the film on these players. I think you'll see what I'm talking about.

“I felt bad about not telling coach Gruden face-to-face,” says Halliday. “But I also felt like they told me that they were going to draft me, and then they didn’t.”

LOL....what a fucking entitled punk. No wonder his wife hauled ass on him. (says a lot about her as well) He sounds like a young Jeff George. Concerned with nothing but stats, over inflated ego......and still doesn't get it.

Texans hare competitive because they benefit of playing Jacksonville, Titans and the Colts w/out Luck. They got their asses handed to them against KC at home. Not impressed by the Texans at all. I get the comparison I guess....

You are correct, he did make the Colts look bad, for good reason.
In the 1994 draft the Colts with the fifth pick, they really reached for LB Trev Albert who was not rated to go in the top 10. Trev Albert did not make it three years and he had to retire.
It was a time the Colts were terrible and had some terrible drafts.

AFC South and NFC East were pretty similar this year IMO. Also, don't forget that the Texans ended Cincy's undefeated season with freaking TJ Yates. Still, the whole point is that I think Houston had the same issues as the Cowboys, yet they managed to be competitive under similar circumstances. Yet for some reason, a lot of pundits think that the Cowboys will be automatic contenders once Romo's fragile ass is back.

IMO Dallas will have a rookie Head Coach next year.... But with respect to Tony Romo. I believe he is done and should retire. Just for the sake of having a nice life with out painkillers...

honestly, he's probably already past that point.

[JoeRedskin]

Romo recently said he expects to play four more years.

If you say so Tony - you just keep the Cowpukes hoping for that.

I read somewhere that Romo said his best years were ahead of him
