Top 5 Texas Stadium Moments

So the Cowboys lost again. Before I rant about the team, I had to cover my top 5 Texas Stadium moments. Mine are much more personal and do not have a whole lot to do with football.

5. 12/25/2006-MNF Iggles 23- Cowboys 7. Bad result, but pretty cool to do MNF on Christmas Day with my father in law. Nice moment.

4. 10/23/2006- MNF Giants 36- Cowboys 22. The Tony Romo Era begins. I was never happier to see Drew Bledsoe get benched. The night started in the nose bleeds, moved to the 30 yard line 10 rows up . Snuck into the Stadium Club. Met Tony Castillas and hugged him...A LOT. On a related note, saw him at a party the next year and wore his Super Bowl Ring. Pretty cool. Don't you wish you had a BFF like that.

3. 09/15/2002- Titans 13- Cowboys-21. Not an overly memorable game, except for the fact that after the victory, my lovely wife (then fiancee) was drenched with beer from an over zealous fan on the luxury suites. I then had to put her on a plane home with no change of clothes. She was not happy.

2. 12/14/08 Giants 8-Cowboys 20. 10 yard line 5 rows up!!! Enough said. I learned what football was really like. I was like a kid watching for the first time.

1. 10/15/2001-MNF Redskins 7-Cowboys 9. Not a barn burner until the final whistle. All hell broke loose and I feared for my life. Before I could get down from my seat I saw a man get thrown down about 23 rows by a man in his 70's, a man yell at an 8 year kid in a RED (no Redskins) shirt, and said kid's father absolutely blindsiding the yeller and knocking him out.

We were in a war zone. I was never going back. I guess you never forget your first!!

As for my thoughts on the Cowboys. Follow this link. http://www.theticket.com/podcast.asp It sums it up nicely. Look under the Ticket Top 10 and Select Norm's rant. That says it all.

Good Lord!!

The Cowboys are a mess!!   I was reading this article this morning and am just as confused as to who is mad at what, when, and where.  I do know the why though.  As much as I hate it, T.O. is becoming who he normally is.  People just don't change.  He is insecure and borderline unstable. Given that force on top of the Pillsbury Dough-Moron not having any control and  your entire team  and folded in the 4th quarter of a big game,  you have the perfect recipe for disappointment.  This is what I like to call Mavericks 101- Lessons in Chocking When It Really Counts.

It will be a miracle if Dallas makes the playoffs, much less win 4 games in a row in the playoffs to make it to and win the Super Bowl. What another DALLAS DISSAPOINTMENT!!!

Random Questions?

Mike Sherman expects aTm to win games next year?  Was he at the t.u. game?  I am just so confused.

Why does Romo seem to spit the bit every time a big, big moment comes around?  He may still be learning how to win in this league, but big interceptions are getting old.

Why get rid of the BCS?  It gives us something to talk about every year.  A playoff with the winner determined on the field is just so boring.  That is why every major conference team should be happy with the conference title and winning a major bowl game.

IS J.J. Barea an actual NBA basketball player, or a very short man on a hot streak.   He hit a huge shot last Tuesday in the comeback win vs. the Clip Joint.

Best Bowl Game? Poinsettia Bowl ,  Worst Bowl Game? International Bowl.  Uconn vs. Buffalo.  Really?   These two schools are in a bowl?
