As a devoted Cowboys fan for most of my 29 year life, I care deeply for my NFL team. However, my level of frustration with my NFL team is reaching a fever pitch.
Call me naive, or what you will, I have thought since the beginning of post-season last year that this was gonna be my team's year. We have the best and most awe inspiring beautiful stadium, anywhere in the world, for any sport. What would be a better way to cap off the season, with our first Super Bowl win since the mid 90s?
Every time Tony Romo is in the pocket, I get nervous now. Time seems to stand still. What takes a QB so long to execute a play and make it happen? Yeah, I know the DNA of football and that the defense comes up on you and you have to manage that. But, it just seems like Tony just don't know what to do.
Yeah, Tony Romo has good days, and he has bad days. Every QB has them. But, remember what I said in beginning of this opinion piece, THIS IS OUR YEAR. Are we gonna let teams like the Giants, Eagles or any other team take it from us? I think not.
I feel that Jerry Jones finds himself in a unique position. What should he do? Yeah, there are arguments on both sides: Keep Romo, put him 2nd string, or just let him go. I offer a wild and unorthox solution to this, with a little help of our NFC East fans. Let's get to reality here, Tony Romo is gonna fail ... again. Once that happens, take Tony out of the game, IMMEDIATELY. But in Kitna, or any one of our back ups. This is called the Donavon McNabb effect. Tony will realize how good he has it, then after the bye week, he will be better than ever. Before, you laugh about it, think about it. This can work.
Also, Tony needs to be more of a motivator. At last minute crunches, they should lift their team up. Not just look dumb.
Tony, I want you to do good. But, now, you just suck. Prove me wrong.

A Lot to Think About ...
We live in weird and troubling times ...
Yes we do. I really can't explain it. But if you just see, you will now what I mean.
I'm not talking just about politics and Obama's European overnight trip. I'm just not talking about the village idiot, Glenn Beck. I am talking about the world in general.
Even though Chicago did not get the privilege to host the 2016 Summer Olympic Games, you must give Obama credit to try to pitch his HOMETOWN to get the games. Now Obama is getting flack from the right for going in the first place. Since when has the politically right think it's cool to be un-patriotic to support a Olympic city plan? What ever happened to COUNTRY FIRST?? Humm??
I do think just a tad that President Obama is taking a little much on his plate than he should. But, let's remember three very important points ... 1) The former President, G.W. Bush left this country in such a mess that Obama has to clean it up, immediately. 2) Historically, it takes about a good year to year and a half before the current Presidents ideals and plans come to play. So, that makes me think that all of this arguing that Obama is turning this country into a Socialist nation is just rubbish. The political right are acting like a bratty teenager and they just need to grow up. And 3) Let's remember that if the stimulus package DID NOT go through, that the job losses would have been over 2 times worse than what happened.
Now, as for Glenn Beck ... the village idiot. I am glad that the mainstream political pundits are starting to describe him as a crazy person. Because, in reality that is what Beck is. It really scares me to think that even though he lost over 50 advertisers, he still gets big ratings on FOX News. It boggles my mind. I have no idea what to think.
It also troubles me that Comcast is actively looking into buying NBC/Universal from GE. I have written on here before that I don't trust Comcast. I always believed that they were too big as a corporation and if they get control of NBC/Universal, my fears will become ever more true. How big is to big? When Comcast looks at that question, they don't think anything. It's scary.
Again, a lot troubles me. I hope you feel the same way.
