I went out and found it at the third sports bar I tried. The place was packed with Eagles, Redskins and Cowboys fans because our game was on at the same time as the Skins’ game. Plus, all the people from the afternoon’s first set of games stuck around. It was a bad mix of people and things could’ve gone very, very wrong considering how the games went. I had some chili dogs in the fourth quarter. For some reason, they tasted better.

It’s obvious that we lit a fire under Philly with this shutout. I hope that we have enough to win this next game. Phillips should have to win a game in the playoffs before Jerry picks up the fourth year of his contract. If he makes a nice little run in the playoffs, I could see Jerry giving Wade a new deal for a few years. We’ll see what happens. I hope Wade does make a nice playoff run and we hang on to him.

Thanks Chris, glad you pointed it out.

That was the first thing I thought when I read that little remark. It’s only rare for a team to beat a team three times because teams don’t often meet three times. The way you wrote it, however, implies that it is not in the winning teams’ favor… I think the numbers are 9 of 13 times teams meet 3 times, the two-time winner becomes a three-time winner.

Cowboys did blow it against the NYG but the odds still favor us, which may disappoint those of you who insist on all things bad pointing towards the Cowboys.

And who cares Wade gave a poor post-game speech. You must have voted for Obama. Speeches don’t matter — DOING does. And he’s been doing all year long.

So tired of all the people out there saying the Cowboys still haven’t done anything. For you all, the only big games are the games the Cowboys lose. Ridiculous.

Also in response to “an impressive feat for a team coached by Wade Phillips” … That’d be an impressive feat for any cowboys team coached by any cowboys coach… given the fact it’s never been accomplished by either of the aforementioned.
