If it's the skins O giving the catheter it'll probably end up in the other team's unit

Agreed Sandtrap. And this is especially true since often (but not always) the standings can be thrown out. Otherwise strong teams can struggle and otherwise miserable teams can rise to the occasion.

word, I've seen it live twice & both were incredible games. At Texas Stadium in 07 a knowledgeable Cowboy fan said to me; "never know what will happen when these two teams play." Very cliche, but quite true.

That said, the fans have to make this a rivarly this week, there just ain't much to excite anyone on a national level. If your cowpokers can't take advantage of this lowly Skins team, they might have some bigger issues goin forward.

Re: Its Dallas Week

Ah rembering Thanksgiving week games of times past. Got this from Redskins.com.

The two teams engaged in wild battles resembling shootouts at the OK Corral: 34-31 Redskins, 31-30 Cowboys, 34-31 Redskins, 17-14 Cowboys, 27-20 Redskins. In four of those five games, the winning points came in the final two minutes.

Such was the case at D.C. Stadium (now RFK) on Nov. 28, 1965. The Cowboys jumped out to a 21-0 lead, and chants of “WE WANT SHINER” resonated through the stadium from fans who wanted the ineffective Jurgensen benched for backup Dick Shiner.

Im sure that name caused a few locker room jabs!!

If Dick Shiner is unsigned at the moment, maybe we can bring him in for a workout and sign him to a vet minimum contract. Could it be that big a step down?

:yeahright

Brown, Locklear, Hurt Questionable vs. Dallas


This is going to get ugly. Poor Rex is going to get killed.

The caveman commercials jumped the shark a long time ago.

It took me a while to realize the joke in the "Geico sacked the caveman" commercial. That one was alright. The cheerleader...ummm. not impressed.

Re: Its Dallas Week

I think they're kinda funny simply because of how bad they are... perhaps that was the intent in the first place?

Re: Its Dallas Week

Brown and Locklear are questionable at RT, I hope Willie Smith plays I'm intrigued with this guy.

Re: Its Dallas Week

Cowboys will be without Tony Fiametta on Sunday. Not a household name by any means, but he has been the key blocker in DeMarco Murrays success at breaking those runs over 10 yards. Don't underestimate his absence. This is a blow to the Cowboys new found running game.

First month of the season, without Fiametta, Cowboys averaged only 86 yards per game on the ground. This past month, with Fiametta blocking for Murray, the Cowboys averaged 176 yards per game running the ball.

No one will miss him more on Sunday then DeMarco Murray.
