Great season for the Cowboys so far, finally been exciting to watch. I'm with you wash, never been a big Romo fan, he was a good upgrade from Carter and Hutchinson, but he isn't all that and a bag of chips like Jerry thinks. I thought they messed up letting Murray go, but like how that worked out. Going 4-12 last year was a good thing for them.

Lots of surprising teams this year, good and bad. Could be said every year though I guess.

I lived in Minnesota for 46 years and was there in 1960 when they started playing. I tried to change my allegiance over to the Cheese, but the Purple is just too deep. So I am just gonna enjoy the ride.

The Giants played the Cowboys in the Cotton Bowl before the almost domed Texas Stadium was built. They played at least one time each year.

I took a customer and his wife to a late season Giants vs Cowboys game. Fran ran all over the field. Men in suits and tie (Company dress code) ladies in dresses,hose and heels. It snowed off and during the game as a blue Northern blew thru early in the first quarter. The Giants won, we left late in the 4th quarter, nearly frozen. My wife stills tells me about it often.

My grandpa has lots of great stories like this. He got "gold package" tickets to the packers in the early 60's. Gold package gave us three games, the shrine game at camp Randell in Madison, and two regular season games in the old county stadium (where the Milwaukee braves/Brewers played). Then in the mid 90's they stopped playing there and we get that same package but all games are played in Green Bay. He got the application in the mail with his disabled license plates for his car.

Sure would be nice if you guys (and all the fans) boycotted the NFL until they stick to football.

I haven't watched a game since they started that $hit !

I look at it this way , they have a right to protest , but not on my time , on their own time & when the NFL will not stop this , on their time , they are just pandering to the Multi-million $ jocks , who are way over paid for playing , just a game !

I say my time , because I pay for my TV stations & they in turn pay the NFL , so it MY time & if I want to watch a football game , I don't want to see these a$$holes bringing up personal $hit on MY time , so I don't watch any of them, period . Fukum .
