Well I have to say it is hard to become a fan of this team. 

I will start this by saying I have been a Cowboys fan since 1971 and just moved to Jacksonville in Dec 07. I thought since the Jags are in the AFC I would give them a chance and I really have this season but they are so disfunctional it makes it impossiable to root for them. I was on the sidelines for the game against the Titans and I just didn't see the emotion I expected from a professional team. 
Now since I am a Cowboys fan and Del Rio was once a Cowboy I find it hard to say this but maybe it's his time to go. I don't know but something is wrong with this team. Maybe they are not a T-E-A-M as someone else said this week, if that is the case would that not be the Coachs fault? I just wanted to express my dilemma with the Jags. I really want to become a fan but its hard. 

If you are a long time Cowboys fan you will know who he is. 

Well I had the chance to meet Bill Bates on Monday. It was a great experience. He is a very nice, humble guy. Not like I remeber him jumping up and down yelling and screaming! So after I told him how big of a Cowboys fan I am he took off his Super Bowl Ring from SB XXX and handed it to me. All I could say was WOW! To actually hold that SB ring in my hand. It was great. 

Well I just thought I should let my fellow fans know about this great experience.

Hey guys (and gals), it's me again, still trying to learn our roster. Now being a Cowboys fan, they have almost always had a great TE (Novachek and now Witten), I have looked over the Jags roster and I am not sure how we use the TE position and who is the best of the group. Now I know some will laugh at this but on Madden they have Lewis as the best of the group but again I am not sure who even started last year. (as soon as I finish this post I am going to check out last years stats for the TE)

If anyone could catch me up on the TE position I would be thankful!

Thanks,

FYI - ESPN's NFL Front Page has the Jags as their top story. They have a story of career restarts:

 Career Restarts

and one on:

Matt Jones - Odd man out?

Also I posted about Pat Kirwan & Tim Ryan on Moving the Chains - Sirius NFL Radio (Weekdays 3-7 EST) refering to the Jags as America's Team.

Well someone called in today and asked about it and they explained that in a poll last year that ranked the popularity of NFL teams the Jags ranked dead last 32 out of 32.

So they do it as a joke but Pat stated that his goal is to help the Jags move up. He is very high on the Jags and he feels they will be a great team this year.

If you don't have Sirius you need to get it. My radio stays on Sirius 124 NFL Radio, I have one in my car, my wife's car and in my office so I listen to it all the time!

So it seems everyone here is overall happy with the Pacman trade.

I have a different take. First off my first memory of the NFL is the 1971 season where the Cowboys beat the Dolphins for the Super Bowl to claim their first title and most likely that game is the reason the Dolphins went undeafeated the next season.

Now it has been a tough off season for me. I really don't want to support this team any longer. Don't get me wrong I love the Star, but with the way Jerry is picking up the trouble of the league it really has made it hard for me to sit with my son and tell him root for the Cowboys even thought they have guys like Pacman who is responsiable for a shooting in a strip club because he want to make it rain. The he asks "what is making it rain?"

It's tough. I would just like to know does anyone else have this problem?

Thanks,

Let me start this by saying Dirk is my favorite player in the NBA.

Now let's look at what I want ot say. Simple Dirk will not ever win an NBA Championship!

Why? He reminds me a David Robinson befroe Tim Duncan came along. Think back what did everyone say about him. He lacks the killer drive. The desire to stomp on the oppostion.

Well I feel the same way about Dirk. I think Wade and the Ref's stole his heart. I think that series ruined any chance our Mavs have at a Championship.

I think bringing Kidd back was a huge mistake, we need to trade both Kidd and Dirk and start over. I am sure this will not be popular with this blog but really this is only my thoughts.

Maybe I am ready to give up on my favorite player but who knows. I know Cuban would never trade Dirk so this is a silly post but just me 2 cents.

I just moved here and am trying to catch up with the Jags. What happened with Matt Jones. I thought he was playing well and had a chance to be a decent WR. Everything I am hearing around town is he will be cut this season right before the season starts? He is making the switch from college QB to WR. That is not an easy switch, one that many have failed at. I thought it was strange when they took him in the draft, and now it looks like a mistake?

What happened? Why did he fall out of favor with the Coachs?
