First I would like to apologize for no post last week, but that damn 49′er game really gave the old ticker a workout. It took me a couple of weeks to recover. 
Have you guys noticed how social media has turned boring events ie the grammy’s into must see events? Tweet streams of boring events is your tech equivalent of watching it at a bar with everyone shouting snarky comments.
Well that same scenario is playing out on boring sporting events. I’ll be honest had it not been for Twitter i would of turned off the Cowboys MNF game. It was boooring and the only thing that made it tolerable was reading some insane tweets from the diehard Cowboys fans.
This is a preview of

The Redskins gathered in the center of the field ON THE STAR. London Fletcher of the Redskins called Cowboys Stadium “This is OUR house! It doesn’t matter where we play! It matters how we play!”
Will this desecration of the Star prime the rivalry pump for games to come?

That forced fumble at the end of the game was worth the whole nerve wracking experience. Watch it again.

After the Cowboys victory Monday night, the sports world was buzzing about two players: Tony Romo (cracked ribs) and Sean Lee. Lee was present throughout the game, making plays and recovering the game winning 4th quarter fumble.

This should have been a catch by Laurent Robinson. Regardless, that hit was pretty real. Welcome to the big show, Laurent!

Watch Tony’s expressions and the effort he goes to to talk with Ed Werder.

I sat in a local wing restaurant last night, watching the most unbelievable comedy of errors in recent memory. Missed snap after missed snap. Dropped pass after dropped pass.running backs stopped behind the line of scrimmage. Wide receivers running wrong routes. A banged up Tony Romo managed to avoid a potentially catastrophic meltdown.
Tony’s an even keeled guy. Maybe too much so. Not last night. You could see the frustration on his face, especially if you could read his lips play after play. Phil Costa got an earful.
Each Wednesday, I’ll be analyzing the teams in the NFC East by position. This week, I’ll start with running backs.
The information in the depth charts was gathered from Yahoo! Sports
Dallas Cowboys
Felix Jones
Tashard Choice
DeMarco Murray
A slimmer, hopefully quicker, Felix Jones will go into the season as the number one back for the Cowboys, with Tashard Choice and rookie DeMarco Murray battling for the number two slot.
