TO'd ya so...

I think that TO should be reprimanded for wearing that Discovery Jersey last week. I mean, the Tour de France participants don’t even spend that much time on a bike...

What were you expecting?

Dallas has a history of nursing the misunderstood players. Deion “Primetime” Sanders and Keshawn “Deactivated” Johnson are examples of this. However, these players understood the priviledge of wearing the Star on your helmet. They understood that we expect more in Dallas. Apparently, Rosenhaus forgot to pass on the memo.

TO was out of place in San Francisco. Philadelphia was top dog in a weak NFC division. TO was an excellent piece to the puzzle to get them over the hump and finally reach the Super Bowl. But, the Cowboys aren’t “one guy away”. Hell, we’re just trying to win a Wild Card spot these days.

This is the reason why I have temporarily put my loyalty on hold for the Cowboys. Seeing Jerry Jones is like being faced with a family member with a crack addiction: As much as you want to help and support you know that they are killing themselves. When TO leaves, and they go into rehab, I’ll start speaking to them again. Super Bowl or no.

No friends, I have traded my Cowboy Blue for the baby blue of the Titans. And, if all goes to plan, Billy Volek will drop like Nancy Kerrigan sometime this week. It's been arranged.

Seriously, watching Billy Volek trot in is like pushing spinach around you plate to make it look like you ate it just so your mom will give you dessert.

Let me ask you this: Was Mack Brown wrong for dismissing Ramonce Taylor off the team for his legal issues? He had no obligation to do so and I think that there is no question that Taylor can play.

But, it's the perception that keeping him on the team gives. Troy Smith accepted $ from a booster and was suspended for 1 game against a non-conference tune up. AD didn't show up for class an entire semester as a student athlete and had to miss 2 series against a cream puff.

The same ideal transfers here. This is the Dallas Cowboys. America's team. 5 time Super Bowl Champs. There is no question that TO can play. But, we don't need anyone like TO tainitng the outward perception of our organization. I find it interesting that Michael Irvin was chastized immensly for his off the field antics but TO, despite never playing a down for us, is given a free pass.

As the old wive's saying goes "Once a cheater, always a cheater". I'll see you in 3 months where I expect a full apology :)
