Wow. Who ever will we rely on to run backwards and sideways for a paltry 6 or 7 yard return?!
That being said, Jerry Jones better be on the Melbourne Craigslist right now searching under Jobs Wanted for any punters.

What a week to be a Cowboy.

signing this bum proved to this Cowboys hater that Mr. Jones doesn’t care about anything other than having his team talked out in the national press as much as possible
as yous’ve seen, this guy isn’t very bright either when playing the game of football or the game of life
during the week this chump punches one of his “court-appointed” handlers and/or breaks a mirror or other glass object in a downtown hotel bar
then while “working” Sunday afternoon Larry Fitz beats him for a TD but steps out of bounds…so the Cards come back and run the same exact pattern this time for a TD, as he fails to recognize it’s the same play
both Mr. Jones and Mr. Jones have gotten what they deserved

Now he can join Tony and Jess on a tropical vacation for the next 4 weeks. Or, maybe he can help man the phone banks and help Jerry cold call sponsors who still won’t lay out money for over-priced stadium naming rights. Or, maybe he can just go awsy for good.

The Commish might have done the Cowboys a favor. From the DMN Cowboys blog:
“The Cowboys get two more picks if Pacman is suspended, per the terms of their trade with the Titans. They wouldn’t have to give up the sixth-rounder and would receive Tennessee’s fifth-rounder.”

@AnonyMouse is onto something: Pac-Man’s signing was a win-win situation — if he turned out to fulfill his potential, we had another talent on our team, and if he screwed up most of our losses (draft picks) were covered.
Either way, I don’t care — I committed sports suicide the other day after Pinkie-gate.

HAHAHAHAHAHA
err, sorry Jerry.

Props to Dale Hansen. When Jerry Jones made this Pac with the devil, Bro Dale went ballistic. And so it played out.
I lost faith in pro sports when, (after free-agentry made high-dollar call-boys outta any player) on one hand, the players were touted as citizen role models while on the other hand…when one of the players smashed a wall driving or hit and run killed someone fixing a flat on Stemmons after leaving a strip club, drug deals, prostitutes, altercations…the works…… it’s suddenly all about ‘business’.
Rule One in ‘Don’t Kid Yourself (or your kids): When there’s a roach in the rent house, it can go downhill before you can sniff two dotted lines.

After all the bad news this week, I would be crying with my head in my hands, if it weren’t for the mental image of Jerry crying with his head in his hands.

Somewhere in heaven right now a lone man in a fedora is smiling down on us all.
Thank you for the early Christmas present Commissioner Goodell.

Frank Sinatra hates Jerry – and Dallas?
@ 3:53 pm on October 14, 2008
Why does Bear Bryant care about the Dallas Cowboys?
@ 3:58 pm on October 14, 2008
Don’t make jokes when we are talking about our angel in heaven, St. Tom Landry.
Meanwhile, look for Smiley Jones to suck up to Cerberus or offer drugged honeycakes.

Cerberus…now that’s funny

Jerry Jones paid Pacman’s body guard to get him liquored up and then provoke him to fight. Then instead of laying down a suspension himself, Jerry acted as if it was no big deal, leaving the dirty work for Goodell.
After the sub-par performance, it was time for Jerry to the ejection seat on the deal and get some draft picks back.

@ Davie Dave
I’m now assuming that Frank Sinatra proved that the Qur’an was right and he is surrounded by 72 (Roman Catholic) virgins.
@ 4:20 pm on October 14, 2008
Nothing on the Roy Williams trade from Detroit to the Cowboys?
@ 4:48 pm on October 14, 2008
@ amandacroba
That would then be assuming that Marilyn Monroe was a vrigin.
@ 5:50 pm on October 14, 2008
But the 72 “virgins” are men.

Cowoboys now have two Roy Willams on the roster.
Well, after my earlier comment, I thought Jones had gotten wise about making trades for draft picks. But I just got slapped back into sanity:
from DMN:
“The Cowboys on Tuesday acquired UT-ex Roy Williams from Detroit for first-, third- and sixth-round picks in 2009 while the Lions will kick back their seventh-rounder in 2009, according to a source. The deal took place moments before the 3 p.m. trade deadline. ”
