Cowboys/Packers wrap-up

With one of my best friends away on his Honeymoon, I highly doubt that he will post his Cowboys game wrap-up, so I will do this for him.

After last week's decisive and redeeming win against the Philadelphia Eagles, we were almost meant to come apart. Unfortunately that is what happened, in Lambeau Field, Green Bay, WI.

This was not our greatest game. We perhaps have lost Marc Colombo for the remainder of the season due to a broken left fibula.

The game was scoreless up unto just about halftime, when Green Bay made a field goal. The game was sloppy on both sides. The game was going to be a shut-out for the Cowboys, a first since the Pats game in 2003. But there was a last minute TD by our Cowboys, and we lost 17-7.

But, let's put things in perspective people. All is not lost. With the Eagles getting a grim loss in San Diego today, 31-23, we are still in 1st place in the NFC East. The Giants had a bye week, and now the Eagles are tied with the NY Giants for 2nd place. Next week, the Eagles play Chicago, in Chicago. With how the Bears have collapsed as of late, I think the Eagles might squeeze out this win.

Cowboys fans, let's not panic. Realize that Tony Romo was just not really into this game. With Tony as our QB, we will have to face this risk. Next week, we play our division rival Washington Redskins. And today, after weeks of collapsing, the Washington Redskins, suddenly came alive, winning against the Denver Broncos. I really don't want to say this, but if we were to lose a game, this was the one. Now that this has happened, let's shake it off, and get our head into the game. If we do that, we will prevail over the Skins. And we will retain first place next week.

In closing, I wished we would have won. It just wasn't our week. I think I speak for all my Cowboys fans in that I think we all hoped that Miles Austin would have took the Lambeau Leap. But, no ... that tool Aaron Rodgers did it. Ugh. Anyway, let's get in gear, and we should be alright for next week.

Ever forward ...

Fort Hood Rampage

Looks like a horrific shooting rampage occurred at Fort Hood, Texas, which is near Waco. As of now, 12 people are killed and over 30 injured.

There were 3 shooters, and one of them was a Major. He was a mental health specialist. I cannot wrap my head around as to why stuff like these happens in America.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry has ordered state flags to be at half mass effective now, until Sunday. President Obama has ordered the same, nationwide.

Keep the citizens of Texas in your thoughts.

Tony Romo, I'm Sorry ...

Looks like Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo listened to my blog entry.

Glad he did.

Surely, as each week passes, my beloved Dallas Cowboys are becoming the team that they are supposed to be. We are back to winning. And I am glad to see that.

Now, our biggest test yet comes this coming Sunday night.

The battle for NFC East 1st place is on the line with the NFL team I hate and despise the most, the Philadelphia Eagles.

The last game we had with this 'team' if you even call them that, ended in embarrassment for us. That was then, this is now.

Eagles, we know you number. We know the games you play. We know the tricks you play and the moves you think you can execute on us. We know that Andy Reid had to 'advise' with his sons, in prison, on weather or not to bring Michael Vick on board. Andy Reid is the most despicable NFL coach, period.

Everything about the Philadelphia Eagles is vile and disgusting. This Sunday night, at the Linc, Eagles fans, you will get what is coming for you. The Dallas Cowboys are far more equipped and experienced in the number 1 spot in the NFC East, than any other team.

By the time we are done with you, you will just sit down, shut up and you can go on losing games, again. First, by us, then by other teams.

This can happen ... If Tony Romo is focused. Tony, continue what you are doing. Keep your head in the game. This is the BIGGEST game we will have so far this year. We cannot accept, nor will we accept anything but total success.

We have been using this 'one game at a time' mentality for a while this season, and it's working. Philadelphia Eagles are nothing. Most in Philly don't realize this, but after Sunday night, they will, they will. And my Cowboys will be number 1 in the NFC East. Bring It!

Beat Philly!

Go Cowboys!!
