Welcome to the Realm™ - Version 5.0...

Since all of us are aware of whom Spats favors when it comes to the NFL Texas Fooo-ball teams, and that by now hopefully ya’ll have been able to surmise that I and the rest of the folks in these here neck of the woods around the Southern Command HQ would probably be ones to prefer the other Texas team, I would request that you wander over here for a quick laugh at the expense of Spat’s Cowgurls.

NOW, I do have to admit that growing up (even when I was a “displaced Texan” living in Illinois) the Cowboys were always my team. But back then, the men that compromised “America’s team” certainly made us proud to be their fans. (Spats, I KNOW you’ll agree with me on that observation)

Not like the more recent years where the team made more news OFF the field than on. In the years since the departure of Landry, Aikman, Johnson, and Smith…it seems that the team has a better arrest record than season record. Yes, Wade Phillips and Jason Garrett have gotten things turned around and some of the old “good” habits are starting to make an appearance again.

But I also happen to have gained an appreciation over the years for the underdog. Ever since Houston got a football team back (and even more so since moving to the local vicinity) and primarily since Gary Kubiak took over the head coaching job, I’ve seen the sort of dedication and desire that was inherent in the teams that Tom Landry coached.

So here’s to the in-state rivalry called the “Governor’s Cup”. Bring it on!

    “America’s Team”, my ass.

    “America’s Team” is a bit further to the north, gentlemen. It plays in a stadium you *may* have heard of.

    “America’s Team” plays in Lambeau Field.

  2. HDD,

    I was just quoting from the Cowboys website.

    And if you REALLY want to get specific about it, “America’s Team” doesn’t play in ANY stadium whatsoever. THAT team plays in places like Afghanistan, Iraq, Germany, Turkey, South Korea, and Japan or any place else where our freedom has been put in question.

    Yeah, I know about the Cowgirls and their claim to be “America’s Team”. The owner of the Cowboys, in the 70s, declared the Cowgirls to be “America’s Team”, because he *thought* that everyone in America liked them. He forgot to check with the legions of Packer fans in the US. The only NFL team with a dedicated fan bar in every OTHER NFL city is the Green Bay Packers. There aren’t any Cowgirls bars in Green Bay…

    And the military ain’t “America’s Team”, either. They’re “America’s Kick Ass Guys”. Comparing the US military to ANY professional sports team is rather…insulting, if you ask me. Comparing professional killers to a bunch of millionaires who play games isn’t really doing a service to either of them.
