So today on the drive in to work I hear all over the radio stations that the Cowboys are discussing trading Dak Prescott. Now as a Redskins fan living in Dallas it's not unusual to hear these clowns talking out the sides of their necks when it comes to the Cowboys to me. Example two weeks ago these hacks were talking about a certainty that the Redskins would give up Cousins to Free Agency and give them a first round pick for Tony Romo. These guys are always making crap up out of the blue like that. So didn't think much of this noise but just ran to Wendy's to get a salad and yet again there was the talk about trading Dak. One of the radio hosts was thinking the Browns would give up the 1st overall pick, there 2nd first round pick, there 2nd and 3rd round picks and next years first round pick as well for him.
Obviously no team is going to sink that much capital into Dak Prescott and it's just another example of rumor starting and stupid commentary by these idiots. I hate the local sports talk here and it has to be the absolute worst radio coverage of a professional team anywhere.

Driving home from work tonight the clowns here in Dallas are talking about Tony Romo and his future. Next thing I know they start playing clips from Kirk talking about his percentages and the likely chance that we do not keep him due to cost. Then the announcers start talking about our 17th overall pick and how they think we will give the Cowboys that pick for Romo

Now first off hahahah the cowboys nation who listens to this crap and believe that must be the dumbest fans anywhere. 

Second ummm **** no that would be a horrible trade for us, Romo is made of glass and would get hurt no doubt plus he's old as hell. No thanks

last if anyone running this team thinks this is a good idea please send me a pm and let me know so I can officially quit being a fan of this team for them being so damn stupid. I seriously would turn in my fan card if that went down and lose every bit of faith in this game forever

I wanted to ask about this too but didn't know where to put it, surprised there wasn't anything on it.  From the sounds of it djax may not even give us a chance this off-season.  

Maybe the silence we are hearing is the official message about this? Seems odd to me for sure

Why don't we have a discussion thread on DeSean Jackson? I mean PFF is talking about him leaving, possible tampering charges against the Eagles involvement in him already, and we aren't interested in this? I'm confused

Stopped in to say **** YOU COWBOYS that's it

I don't know why, but I can't post on mobile and it occasionally redirects me to a contact page when I like something. It's ****ing irritating.

Me too

Not sure if everyone has seen this and not starting a thread here in case there is one and I didn't notice

So there you go. Now a couple of thoughts

1. When Baker walked through the locker room is this the 2016 "You Like That!" moment? "We run the East" I love it

2. Who the hell is Smith to talk like this? I mean it's one thing to be an athlete like Michael Irvin who talks smack because he's been there, done that before but this guy? To call professional athletes "losers" only shows what a pos this guy really is. Eff him

3. If we had won that game against Dallas would any one even wonder if "We run the East" in 2016? Hell no they wouldn't and we should have won that game. Everyone is on the Dak Zeke bandwagon now so they can talk smack like this about us thinking the NFC East won't run through DC but they will learn in time. It maybe a new year but somethings don't change. We run the East

/Rant over

It's not like I haven't seen worse things in wrestling then that much worse but to me as a lifelong fan that fall was a big FU to the business, it's workers, and worse a lack of remembering the past. Of all places to do a massive fall like that it was completely out of place and self serving and pissed me off. 

Done in the middle of the card, a stunt dangerous enough to not be controllable where someone could have died, and done in front of the guys children.

That's messed up to me. What's worse when you think about it that stunt was pulled off for one reason, it was done so that a McMahon will go down in history amongst the likes of Mick Foley, Abdullah the butcher, Sabu, Terry Funk, the Sandman, Brusier Brody and the real hard core wrestlers . Why Undertaker, because when Foley did it Undertaker was his opponent.

The whole story was added because some one wants to look back at Shane's career and think he's a hardcore wrestler the likes of those men. Shane is not nor ever will be a hardcore wrestler the likes of those men to me.

I'm with LBK, blood over bumps. As much as he tries to be hardcore, wrestlers are not one night matches, they aren't just one trick ponies, one bump guys, and falling off a cage doesn't make anyone hard core. The real ones do it night after night after night and can't be made by one bump.

When I add in that the story went no where, to the what ifs....What If Shane had died in that fall would they have continued the show like they did to Owen? Would Shaq have come out after that? Would the Rock have come out? How would the crowd have reacted would there have been a riot? Or would it have been the death blow for the WWE when the bosses son died in front of women and children and really stole the show?

Dangerous events need to be done for a reason and with the right people not to be taken lightly or done often for no reason. There needs to be more to that then just one guys ego for the security not only of the show itself, the business and it's future. I guarantee you if Shane had died doing that things would be a hell of a lot different then they turned out

So if Taker had lost, then Vince fires him & Shane gets control of Raw?

I guess having Taker job out to the finger poke of doom & Shane picking up the pin fall only to re-hire Taker the next night on his Raw woulda make to much sense huh.

Pretty much and we would have had a "new direction" for Raw to look forward to tonight which would have been better then what we have now.

Reports are now coming out the their were actually between 93K and 94K instead of the 101K plus they stated last night.

Why do the WWE lie about attendance figures when it can be proven otherwise?

They lied about this since Wrestlemania 3, it's just what they do

Post Benoit, post 10,000 stories and one movie on concussions, post watching Mick Foley try to walk down a ramp to a ring....it's not that much fun to watch guys potentially kill themselves.

 

I saw something on another board that made me go hmmmmm.....the emotionally great storyline is Shane going to the top of the cage, crossing himself and looking at his kids.......and then climbing down because control of a wrestling show is just not worth it.

 

I think you could have Taker go over to hit him and then realize what's going on. Vince comes down to protest and reminds Taker that if he loses, he's done. Taker tombstones Vince, announces his retirement in Texas, and maybe he, Austin, and Shane drink some beers over Vince's corpse. I mean, who enjoyed a heel Taker pinning a half dead Shane in order for all the storylines to remain intact?

 

And, no, I would not have come up with that storyline before the fact. It's all based on what I watched. But that's sort of the problem with the writers. They don't seem to have anyone like a Pat Patterson who can listen to their bull**** and say, "That's no good, eh. That won't make them people pop. Hey....you want to make them pop, eh? This is how we make them pop." (For some reason, my Pat Patterson impression makes him sound like an Italian from Thunder Bay).

I would have loved that ^^^

Bury Shane?

 

A 50 year old non-wrestler who hasn't been on tv in ten years?

 

Either you mean that literally or your don't actually know what "bury" means in wrestling terminology.

Yup literally for Shane. He could have died last night and for what?

As for Undertaker, sure he's old and for the past 25 years he's been the baddest dude on the planet but now he's Vince's ****? Why bury him on his way out the door for Vince like that? This just makes no sense since that was supposed to be about Legacy, so Undertakers legacy is Vince's ****. Got it, what a load of crap. I would have rather Undertaker laid down to a finger poke then win that match and have told Vince to stick it then what happened.

What's the point of the Shane Undertaker match now that we know Undertaker went over? Is Vince trying to bury these guys? Does Shane have a death wish? First we hear over and over "Undertaker is my ****" from Vince in the promos which hurts his brand, then we get excited that "change is going to come" when Shane wins and he loses so its status quo right? 

Not only does he lose he does one hell of a stupid stunt that could have killed not only him but the entire show. Dumbest thing I've seen in a very long time of dumb things. Does the WWE think Shane is indestructable or have they forgotten what happened to Mick Foley when he fell off the top of that ring which wasn't as high or the money they lost when Owen Hart fell to his death from not much higher or when New Jack almost killed himself jumping off a much shorter distance? The only thing awesome about that to me was Shane survived it and how it made no sense to me to have done it in the first place. The parent inside of me is angry he did that in front of his three kids too. 

I enjoyed the show overall and was entertained but that match didn't sit well with me and makes no sense to me where they go from here.
