Broke Back Dome

As anyone who knows me very well at all has probably suspected, I am reveling in the unraveling going on in the "Big D." Like those two famous cowboys that found love in one another (actually, I think they were goatboys not cowboys), Jerry Jones has created a story nobody in Texas wants to watch. Frankly, I can't quit it. The most recent wrinkle is that Jerry Jones fired head coach Wade Phillips. I hadn't thought about it, but someone mentioned the interesting statistic on the radio that Jerry Jones has fired every coach the Cowboys had ever had. The only disappointment in this whole thing is that Wade got fired. Nothing pleased me more to see the Cowboys act woefully inadequately on the field to have the camera cut to Wade with that "Aww shucks" or that "Where am I?" look on his face.


Speaking of Wade... has anyone ever seen him and Bob's Big Boy in the same place at the same time?
















I think I have made my point.


The best part about this whole thing is that the Cowboys began the season talking about how they were gonna be the first team to play the Superbowl at home in Jerry World. The way it looks now, the only Cowboy employees that will be working the Superbowl will be janitorial staff. The NFL always puts their best officials out for the Superbowl. With all of the crap the Cowboys have been putting on the field this season those janitors will have had enough practice to be an all-star crew by then as well. If only this same type of thing could happen to the Giants as well. Unfortunately there is another team ripe for this type of fall with a demagogue owner. Sadly, that owner is Daniel Snyder. To be fair, at least Jerry has won some Superbowls, while the Daniel Snyder Redskins have been the model of consistent mediocrity. At least we can bask in the current work of art that is Broke Back Dome.
