Okay, I'm swamped up to here penning a cover story about a former Cowboy you haven't thought about in a long time, so let's make this snappy. Besides, isn't it best to eat your crow on the run? After praising Cowboys' quarterback Tony Romo in a swath of I-told-you-so's last week, he went out and looked like the goofball from the worst flag football team you ever played on. Goofy grins. Running to the heater between plays. Sailing passes. Fumbling. Throwing high and wide intercep
December 9, 2008Tomorrow, the NFL Network Goes All-Cowboys -- Well, For the Most Part
Several Friends of Unfair Park have asked in recent days whether the NFL Network would be covering all of the post-game ceremonies at Texas Stadium following tomorrow night's tussle with the Baltimore ColtsRavens. Should be big doings, as some 100 ex-Dallas Cowboys players (10 of 'em, so they say, Ring of Honorees) and coaches will stroll on the field one final time, right before Jerrah turns out the lights. So I called NFL Net spokesperson Brenna Webb and asked, "What's the plan?"To which she r

Then perhaps you recall a time when Your Dallas Mavericks were "Rowdy, Loud and Proud," courtesy PPT; and who can forget Pantera's catchy contribution to the canon in honor of Your Dallas Stars? All of which I mention this morning only because Forbes brings word of the latest local sports team theme: "Swing It Around (Cowboy Town)," the

Scott What's stranger: That the Cowboys lost in Green Bay or that Carly Patterson is still signing autographs?10. I said on Sunday's pre-game show on 105.3 The Fan that the only way the Dallas Cowboys could lose to the Green Bay Packers was to commit 3-plus turnovers. The Cowboys committed three turnovers. Add to that 10 penalties, dropped passes, a missed field goal and a couple injuries and - presto - stinko. 9. If I were truly astute, I should've also pointed out that ano
November 16, 2009A View to a Kill: Sportatorium Spy Goes to Lambeau
Sportatorium lifetime member Scott can be a dork. His "Roy Williams ... this or that" rants are as legendary as they are ludicrous. But every once in a while he delivers. Like Sunday, when he was at Lambeau Field in Green Bay and snapped some pics of the Cowboys' carnage. Props to you Scott. Now get back to your regularly scheduled insanity.

In the wake of Packers 17, Cowboys 7, King has a message for Dallas fans: Step away from the ledge.

November 17, 2009Rush to Judgment: Do your Dallas Cowboys Pass Too Much?
Wade Phillips wants more balance. Jason Witten wants to get back to the "brand." Felix Jones and Tahsard Choice want more touches. You, the Dallas Cowboys fan, just want to win. I think Tony Romo is an elite quarterback and in the NFL you control the clock on the ground and you put points on the board through the air. I get that. But it's becoming apparent that offensive coordinator Jason Garrett makes me pass-happy sad. In last Sunday's loss in Green Bay, the Cowboys handed th
