How bout dem Cowboys?

I don't know if it's just me, but there are teams which I unsupport. By which I mean that there are certain teams I really hope will lose every time, regardless of the situation. In the NFL I unsupport the Raiders and the Cowboys.

Yeah, there are two teams I root for: The Redskins and whoever can beat the Cowboys.

I couldn't agree more. they say the Cowboys are "America's Team " but as my ex - USAF friend said once "They sure as hell ain't MY team "

Don't talk to me about the NFL . . .My Redskins got stuffed again . . .no playoffs this year

That's what they get for naming their team after potatoes.

I hadn't thought of that before. With all the fuss about the name being racist, they could always say the name isn't named after Native Americans, but after potatoes! Of course, that might offend Mr. Potato Head.

I always though the best name for a Washington team would reflect the looks on the faces of most politicians who get caught with their hands in the cookie jar: the Washington Red Faces!

Hey, Boston and Chicago have baseball teams named after the color of their socks, so it's not as silly as it sounds.

Dallas may not deserve all the scorn that gets dumped on them (maybe, I sez...) but to claim the mantle of "America's Team" is just begging for a monumental ass-kicking on a regular basis. Think they call that 'hubris'. Note: the Lions dont suck this year Also, Dallas currently receiving one of those ass kickings at the hands of Oakland no less. Oh the humanity

Update: Dallas apparently came back and won their game, but it was Oakland after all. Its not like they were a real team or anything, even Dallas can't suck to that degree. Not to worry, they aren't exactly in the top 3 candidates for the Super Bowl....

Plus December is coming. Romo and the Cowgirls always seem to fall apart in December.

The end of that Skins/Giants game had to be the worst piece of garbage officating I've ever seen. This had to be retaliation for one of their own being suspended for spewing foul language at one of our players. Had to be.

I didnt watch the game, so just from what I caught on TSN -- so, they made the call it was a 1st down, moved the chains, then said it was 4th down? Better turn on the tv and look this morning, it sounded screwey last night

[BSink42]

I watched it live and it looked all different kinds of screwy to me. Maybe it's a slightly biased viewpoint because Washington's my team, but even non - 'Skins fans I know called that bad officating last night.
