Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
'Bout three months ago, seemed like former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Quincy Carter was danged near the luckiest dude in pro-ish football, getting the call up to the Kansas City Brigade of the Arena Football League. This came about a year after he'd already screwed up his gig throwing the ball for the Bossier-Shreveport BattleWings in the Arena2 league; Quincy had a thing about not showing up for meetings. But, seriously? Quincy Carter's ending this week by trying out for the Miami Dolphins? Where Bill Parcells, who hated Carter when he coached the Cowboys, is the vice president of football operations? How'd that happen? In the words of Deadspin: "Where oh where have you gone Jay Fiedler?" Now who's stoned? --Robert Wilonsky
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
