all about the corporate sponsors and protecting the millions of dollars
they have thrown at the NFL
there is no rhyme or reason as to how the NFL operates anymore.
hide this
sweep that under the rug
deny those accusations
turn the other way
like during a TV interview on a major network

Smoking weed is bad in Rick Perry's holy land, meanwhile for the rest of America more states are pushing towards legalization.

Congratulations Texas, you're almost to Kentucky level stupid.

Do the Texans need a better QB?
Their boy blew another game tonight.

Did JJ Watt get dominated by the Dallas O-Line last week or
did he suddenly heal up and was ready to play tonight vs Colts?

The Texans definitely need a QB, but that loss was on the secondary and special teams. When you give up an onside kick in the first 3 minutes and miss a field goal, allow Hilton to have a career night, and miss a shit ton of tackles in the backfield, that isn't on the QB. They blitzed too damn much too. How many times does Luck have to burn you on third and long when you blitz before you figure it out?

He could be the best ever. The team kinda sucks right now, but watching that guy do his thing makes it worthwhile.

And I'm sure he'll be re-accepted into the NFL soon. If he stay's a Viking I picture the Vikings will remain the same. If he leaves it gives them a chance at least to go in a different direction with still some talent left.

Isn't it hard to see a team jumping to give up good draft's at his price? RB are lowering in value especially at his cost.
AP has got some good years left except he's high risk just like a draft pick at a lower rate.

I think the Viking's will drop their price come time.

The joke of it all is the NFL commitment to abuse. It's all about the dollar.

Peterson is finished. By the time he gets on the field again - maybe halfway through next season? - he'll be rusty, old, and a shadow of his prime.

The Vikings would be smart to dump him now for whatever they can get. Maybe a third-rounder.

"smoked a little weed"

Peterson admitted to the worker that he had "smoked a little weed" before the test.

Why do I have a strange feeling he's already planning on retirement.

Seriously. It's like all the people I work with who get good jobs only to piss them away. It's why I quit pot. Having a Job is more important not to mention in this case.....Time behind bars? I hate a waste of talent, he was great and could have been so much more but when we get down to it and look at all the facts. Child abuse, pot while on bail? Fuck um. Just another one down in a long list in the NFL.

The way the Browns are playing and with their weak ass schedule, I think a Wild Card is quite possible. Book it.

Reminds me of 2007 but we're already above .500 and have a much easier schedule. It's a must to win the garbage games and go down to Cincy and beat Mediocre Marv and the Ginger. The Browns could very seriously be going into that Cincy game with a 5 game winning streak. The Jags, Raiders, and Bucs are up next before TNF with Cincy.

Dallas wins at Seatte today. Who here saw that coming?
HOW ABOUT THEM COWBOYS!!

Romo was clutch on 3rd down. Romo made the plays, made the throws and Murray
was up to his usual antics running the ball.

Did anybody notice Marshawn Lynch laughing and smiling, fist bumping a teamate after Wilson ws picked off to end the game? Maybe he laid a bet and took Dallas

And there he is. Hey you deserve to gloat some for once, that was a good win. Enjoy it while you can though. No one was really taking the Cowboys seriously before and once they figure out that it's just Linehan's old Lions offense the wins are going to be a lot harder to get.

Time will tell. I think the NFL is finally taking Dallas seriously after the road
win in Seattle.
The final score did not really tell just how dominating Dallas was.
On the offensive side of the ball & the defensive side of the ball Dallas was more physical, gave more effort and was a lot hungrier.

Running game sets up the passing game. With the O-Line and Murray, the game is made a lot
easier for the WR's and Romo.

This shit is getting ridiculous. These players are being handed a golden ticket and they can't stop doing stupid stuff. Fuck em, you are found guilty of anything that you can do jail time for and you are no longer allowed to play.

Still.. Losing Doug Free for 3-4 weeks is gonna suck..


Very surprised so far about this season. LOL.. Likin it. Waiting for it all come crashing down. Hmmm. Possibly this Sunday? LOL.. Wouldn't bet against it.

Love how all the bandwagon fag fans are back on. All of a sudden , this team can do no wrong. Garrett and Jones are gods. All is well. Most of these "fans" "think" they will score at will against the Giants.. lol

Pfffffttt..

Been around too long and I have seen this show before....

IRVING, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith became the first offensive lineman to be named the NFC's offensive player of the week in a decade.

Smith received the honor for his role in the Cowboys' 30-23 win against the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks, the league announced Wednesday.

The last offensive lineman to receive a conference player of the week honor was Kansas City’s Brian Waters in 2004. The last tackle to win the award was Dallas' Erik Williams in 1992.

Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle ​has been fined $29,117 after being arrested for shoplifting on Monday, reports USA TODAY.

According to USA TODAY, the number represents how much Randle makes per week.

Randle apologized to his teammates Wednesday morning for the arrest, according to Clarence Hill of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett said Randle took full responsibility for his actions and will face consequences, but will play on Sunday.

Randle allegedly shoplifted underwear and cologne from a Dallas-area mall. An arrest report said the total value of the stolen items was $123.50 before tax.

According to Hill, Garrett said the team would move on after Randle was fined significantly.

At this point in the season better then expected by some but ya it's more typical to most. The talent's still there and December is still coming.
I felt Dallas would be in this position and will be in this position, this two week stretch is a big two weeks. I picked them to fall in Seattle beat the Giant's or either way go 1-1. Now they're in place to move ahead. The NFC East always delivers a good sloppy race in the end.

For two years Arizona is still the surprise to me that don't get the attention they deserve. The West is tough and with the loss Seattle is back in the thick. The early losses could make them hungrier.

I looked at the Packers being weaker this season and expected the Bears and/or Detroit to take advantage. Not counting either out, another good race.

Didn't expect to see the entire NFC South to be in the negative in point differential but if anyone can start slow and get hot it's the Saint's.

Overall, I like the battles in the NFC this year.

AFC isn't as interesting, New England is lucky to be in the East

The Raiders will not win a game this year.

Indy will run away.

The North is up for grabs, after being cheated from the playoffs last year I'm still rooting for the Steelers to break this win every other game shit. Run thy ball!

It'll be a 2-team race between the Panthers and Saints. No wild card safety net for either one.

No offense Ratt, but, NOBODY , I mean, NOBODY saw Dallas where they are at right now.

I agree that the talent has been there. I am just hoping the "mentality' has actually finally shown up in Dallas. I will know more this coming Monday what this team is really made of.
