Anyone going to the Titans game?
Just thought I'd inquire if anyone is going to the Titans game and want to do some pre-game tailgating or hanging out before the game.
Shoot me an e-mail if interested.
Cowboys Playoff scenarios

I saw this chart on possible playoff seeding scenarios in the NFC on ESPN.com and thought it was interesting that out of 8 scenarios our chances of playing the Eagles in the first round of the playoffs is 2 out of 8. Thats good news.

Cowboys Top 50 BTB version
by Terry on May 29, 2009 8:31 AM EDT
on Blogging The Boys
As many of you already know DC.com is posting the 50 greatest players in franchise history and a few weeks ago BTB regular TCBinNYC posted a fanpost in which he attempted to generate interest in having the BTB community give their input where anyone interested could send TCBinNYC a list of their 50 greatest Cowboys and he would input those into a spreadsheet and tabulate the results. TBCinNYC's e-mail address is tye_basham@yahoo.com so feel free to pick your top 50 and send it to him.
To generate interest and maybe some debate below is my top 50 Cowboys of all time. I personally based my selections on the players career and impact on the franchise. not necessarily who I thought was more talented, but of course anyone is free to base their top 50 on any type of criteria they want. So here is my list.
Message 1 Troy Aikman 2 Emmitt Smith 3 Roger Staubach 4 Randy White 5 Bob Lilly 6 Tony Dorsett 7 Michael Irvin 8 Bob Hayes 9 Lee Roy Jordan 10 Mel Renfro 11 Rayfield Wright 12 Drew Pearson 13 Chuck Howley 14 Harvey Martin 15 Darren Woddson 16 Don Perkins 17 Cliff Harris 18 Ed Jones 19 Don Meredith 20 Larry Allen 21 Cornell Green 22 Chalie Waters 23 Everson Walls 24 John Fitzgerald 25 Jay Novacek 26 Bob Breuning 27 Herb Scott 28 Pat Donovan 29 Tony Hill 30 Duane Thomas 31 D.D. Lewis 32 Danny White 33 John Niland 34 Charles Haley 35 Hollywood Henderson 36 Jethro Pugh 37 Robert Newhouse 38 Jim Jeffcoat 39 Dave Edwards 40 Jason Witten 41 Mark Stepnoski 42 Darryl Johnston 43 Tom Rafferty 44 Erik Williams 45 Michael Downs 46 Deion Sanders 47 Calvin Hill 48 Rafeal Septien 49 Bill Bates 50 Tony Romo

Questions for Crayton and Bennett
by Terry on Dec 4, 2008 8:54 AM EST
on Blogging The Boys
As most of you know, I'm going to the game this Sunday, right into the belly of the beast known as Heinz Field, however, I also am going to the dallascowboys.com radio road show Saturday night where the guest Cowboys appearing on the show will be Patrick Crayton and Martellus Bennett.
If I'm lucky enough to ask a question to one of the guys, what kind of question do you guys want me to ask either one. I'm looking for good, insightful questions. Fire away.
wait til you hear this
NFL Networks just reported that Matt Ryan signed a 6 yr 72 mil dollar contract with Falcons. All I can say is unfreakinbelievable!
JESSICA SIMPSON has hit out at fans of American football team the Dallas Cowboys, for dubbing her a bad luck charm.
Devotees of the Texas team turned on Simpson after her quarterback boyfriend Tony Romo under performed during games when she was watching in the stands.But Simpson insists she had nothing to do with the team's bad performances, telling Glamour magazine, "I don't know - other than me wearing my man's jersey and cheering him on. And him not playing the way he would've hoped and all of a sudden I'm to blame.
"That was ludicrous. I don't understand why they think that I would be a distraction to Tony. Do they really think he can see way far up in that box? No. He's the most focused person I've ever dated."
"(Jessica would) love nothing more than to get married before Ashlee," a source revealed to Star. "It upsets her that her little sister will be married and she won’t. She gets jealous when Ash gets more attention."
That’s where Jessica’s six-month romance with Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo comes in. "She’s been showing him rings in magazines," the insider said. "She tells him what she likes, and she does it right in front of his friends, too, so it’s really awkward."
Awkward or not, Jess plans to keep up the pressure. "She been joking to friends that she should take Tony to Vegas, get him drunk and drag him to the Little White Wedding Chapel."
All joking aside, the Star source claimed that if Tony doesn’t pop the question soon, Jess may just make the proposal herself. "She knows he can’t say no to her."
"Terence is a guy we want here. Period," Jones said of their 2003 first-rounder and a Pro Bowler in 2007.
The Cowboys would like to kick up talks with Newman's agent in the future. Jones did not sound the least but concerned about Newman turning 30 in September.
"I think Terence Newman is playing for as long as we want to sign him for," Jones said. "He takes great care of himself. He's a first-class guy. He's everything you want in a football player."
Jerry doesn't think Pacman will be reinstated
by Terry on Apr 16, 2008 4:30 PM EDT
on Blogging The Boys
Jerry Jones was interviewed today and said he is not confident Pacman will be reinstated by Goodell. Well, if he really feels that way, why is he he trying to trade for him??
To me, that doesn't make any sense at all. There are no other teams even remotely interested in this thug, and for good reason, so why even bother. Pacman has made it clear he wants to play for the Cowboys, so just wait to see if and when he's reinstated to make any kind of trade. Until then, forget about him and just prepare for the draft.
Cowboys open against Brownies

on Blogging The Boys
Matt Mosley is reporting the Cowboys opening day oppenent are the Cleveland Browns. This should be a great game to open the season because the Browns fans are always rowdy.
Now this is a mock draft I love
by Terry on Apr 4, 2008 3:15 PM EDT

Sam Farmer of the L.A. Times pened a mock draft and he has the Cowboys taking two of my favorite players in the draft that I would be thrilled to get if we actually selected them.
DRC could slide down to us due to having one kidney
by Terry on Mar 31, 2008 11:56 AM EDT
on Blogging The Boys
The L.A. Times is reporting that DRC has only one kidney and that fact might cause some teams to pass on him in the first round. Apparently, one of his kidneys needed to be removed when he was 8 years old because it wasn't functioning.
This just may cause some teams looking for a CB to take Jenkins and Talib over DRC and have him slide down to us. Never know, its possible.
Cowboys draft board nearing completion
by Terry on Mar 17, 2008 2:06 PM EDT
on Blogging The Boys
I saw this post over at the Boys Blog stating that a team source indicated that the Cowboys scouting department have given 21 players a first round grade for next months draft. That means unless all the teams that draft ahead of the Cowboys have the same 21 players on their boards, which is highly unlikely, the Cowboys are assured of getting a player which they grade as a first rounder.
A source told me this morning that the Cowboys have 21 players on their board with first round grades.
The team picks 22nd.
That’s no reason to panic. As I’ve said time and again, every team has a different board. What are the odds that the 21 players Dallas has rated as blue chippers will go exactly in slots 1 through 21? They have to be very high. If just one team ahead of Dallas takes a player the team has as a high second the Cowboys will have first round value waiting for them when they pick.
And if seven such players go that high, the Cowboys could find first round talent at both of their first round spots.
Any guesses on the identity of the Talented 21?
Zach Thomas signs with Cowboys
by Terry on Feb 23, 2008 12:26 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
Thomas and the Cowboys agreed to a 1 year, 3 million dollar contract today. 3 million is absolutely insane for a 35 year old undersized LB who has a history of concussions.
I really hate this signing a lot.
Im posting this to reduce the shock if it happens
by Terry on Feb 20, 2008 3:48 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
you guys can take this for what its worth, but friends close to both Romo and Simpson say the couple might be close to getting hitched soon.
I just didn't want some of the bloggers who hate Simpson to fall over from a heart attack if or when an engagment is announced.
Colombo is a really big Flozell fan

Marc Colombo thinks the Cowboys should re-sign Flo because he's really good and so it doesn't disrupt the chemistry of the line. Here's what he says about his teammate.

Romo was cheating on Jessica all along
by Terry on Jan 26, 2008 12:52 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
The tabloids are reporting that Tony was cheating on Jessica Simpson all along
with his college sweetheart and actually plans to propose to her on Valentines Day. This is a shocker!
Tis the mock season
by Terry on Jan 24, 2008 4:56 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
As everyone knows that from now until April 25, we will be inidated with mock drafts from about thousand publications. It seems as though everyone and their brother are publishing mock drafts. Now I understand that these things will change about a million times in the next 3 months, especially after the combine and pro days, but since the Senior Bowl is being played this Saturday, I thought I'd post the Cowboys selections from 3 mock drafts by highly regarded draft gurus, Todd McShay from Scouts, Inc , Mel Kiper and Scott Wright of nfldraftcountdown.com .
Romo love triangle
by Terry on Jan 18, 2008 5:33 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
The tabloids are reporting that Jessica Simpson found out that Romo is still chummy with Carrie Underwood and she forbid Tony from having anymore contact with her at all. A part of me wishes Romo dumps Simpson and goes back with Underwood because at least their relationship was less public and they didn't show her on FOX's broadcasts during games she attended. Tim MacMahon form DMN Blog seems to agree.

Looks like it will be a whiteout at Texas Stadium
by Terry on Jan 9, 2008 5:56 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
DMN Blog is reporting that the Cowboys are asking all fans attending the game on Sunday to wear white. Its going to look like the student section at Happy Valley for crying out loud. Have the Cowboys ever asked the fans to do this before? I can't recall.
Romo defends his Mexico getaway

Today Romo was interviewed by the Dallas media regarding his weekend getaway to Mexico with Jessica and the Wittens and this is basically what he had to say about it as reported by DMN Blog

ETVal, the Giants blogger on that site, is posting a "Jessica Simpson Photo of the Day" all week in honor and respect for Romo. Don't you just love the jealously??
great news regarding T.O.
by Terry on Jan 2, 2008 2:15 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
DMN Blog is reporting that T.O.'s ankle sprain is healing very fast. That obviously has to be sweet music to Cowboys fans ears.
T.O. skipped his Wednesday chat with the media for the second consecutive week, but word is his ankle is healing as quickly as the Cowboys hoped.
He put his left shoe on today for the first time since suffering the high ankle sprain in the first half of the Dec. 22 win at Carolina.
"I thought he was ready to go today the way he was talking," Sam Hurd said. "He was excited."
T.O. must be living in his hypobaric chamber as I hoped he would. Keep it up T.O., we need you bad for the SB run starting in 10 days.
Romo and Phillips are confident going into the playoffs
by Terry on Dec 30, 2007 11:01 PM EST
on Blogging The Boys
Unlike a majority of their fans, the actual Cowboys are very confident going into the playoffs as well they should be. Romo said the they really didn't gameplan for the Skins because they might see them again in the playoffs. Smart move. I'm extremely confident they will play well in 2 weeks, especially Romo, he won't let us down.
