GO COWBOYS!!! 3-7  (wins - losses) Thanksgiving Day, November 26th Carolina Panthers vs. Dallas Cowboys  (home team is second) 3:30 PM CST on CBS Y'all... everyone just plays harder when Romo is on the field...  We finally won a game last week against the 4-6 Miami Dolphins! Rolando McClain even got a pick 6!! A PICK 6! The first of his career!! ( A Pick 6 is when a defender intercepts or recovers a fumble and scores 6 points for the Touchdown on the same play... pick up the ball and score 6... Pick 6 ).  *** If you don't remember seeing much of McClain this year, it is because he was suspended for 4 games at the beginning of the season for substance abuse. We are glad you're healthy and back in action McClain! *** This week is a short week. We played on Sunday, on the road, in Miami, and now come home and prepare for the Panthers in just 3 days! Normally, they play on Sunday, have Monday off and get back to work on Tuesday or full practices on ...

GO COWBOYS!!! 2-7  (wins - losses) Sunday, November 22nd Dallas Cowboys vs. Miami Dolphins  (home team is second) 12:00 PM CST on  FOX Tony Romo... Welcome Back . The names may not have all changed, but we're still glad to have you! Oh wait, our RB's names have all changed...  ***I'll let Mase sing to you  (let the song play while you read...)*** Romo's status has officially been changed from Out/Probable/Questionable to ACTIVE!!! If you're a Fantasy Football player... you like it when the IR, O, Q and P leave your status updates, which hasn't happened much this season.  What are our odds vs. Miami?  Well, on Defense, Morris Claiborne is out, but we have Sean Lee back. And Byron Jones , secondary phoneme, is going to help out where Claiborne left off. He will most likely be covering Rishard Matthews , the Dolphins leading WR, who has 42 receptions, over 600 receiving yards and 4 TD's. We believe in you kid! You got this!  ...

GO COWBOYS!!! 2-6  (wins - losses) Sunday, November 15th Dallas Cowboys vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers  (home team is second) 12:00 PM CST on FOX No Tony Romo. No Sean Lee. No Back-Up QB that can win. Jason Witten is still playing injured, but he's Jason Witten. Dez is playing with pride injuries. Our Defense is pretty banged up and our Offense is hoping that McFadden can stay healthy as our starting RB. 6 straight losses by a Margin of 6.2 points per game ( if you extract the Patriots game... we knew we were going to lose that... if you add it in, it bumps the average margin to 9 points per game ). Where do we go from here?  I like to sing the song from the Lion King... Zazu , the bird... he's trapped in the cave with Scar and sings... " Nobody knows the troubles I see, nobody knows my sorrows... "  I won't overreact. I am not a player, I am a fan. As a fan, we are all together in this. Remember, this team is a family and we are their distant cousin...

GO COWBOYS!!! 2-5  (wins - losses) Sunday, November 8th Philadelphia Eagles vs. Dallas Cowboys  (home team is second) 7:30 PM CST on NBC Welcome to Dallas, Philly.  When we had Romo... we won in Week 1 vs. the New York Giants ( in our Conference, NFC East ). In Week 2, we defeated the Philadelphia Eagles ( also in our Conference ) in Philly!  Since Romo has been out, we have lost 5 straight games . 3 games with Brandon Weeden behind Center and 2 games with Matt Cassel in the QB slot. And this is with the "best O-Line in the NFL." ( not anymore... ) If we had the Defense we have this year with the Offense we had last year... dang... we'd be good! But, we don't.  Life happens. Injuries happen.  ************ The Eagles have lost 4 games... coming into Dallas hungry for their 4th win to bat .500 and have a chance at catching the Giants who are sitting in First in the NFC East with a 4-4 record.  The Redskins are limping along...
