I was wondering why this steel guy has such a case of the a** on a forum that isn't about the Dallas Cowboys. Why would someone get that worked up about that team, especially since their season is over? And it was a season, at least in Cowboy terms, that was kinda successful. Sitting at home on the couch, sure, but at least they finally won a playoff game this century, right? And then it struck me...
Keith Brooking, you're not such a tool after all, now that I know you have an FJR, (or at least post on the FJR board). And I can see why you're frustrated. After all, you were supposed to win last week! You're the Cowboys, goshdarnit! Doesn't Roger Goodell know that? You guys shouldn't have to play anyone in the NFC playoffs, you should just go straight to the the SB! And not only did you have to play, but that old guy from the Vikings didn't get the memo about not lighting you guys up with four touchdown passes. He's 40, so you know he knows of your aura! What was he thinking? You tried to alert the Vikings sideline that they weren't following the script, and Jared Allen, of all players, told you to get your azz back on your side of the field! Jared Allen!!! Didn't he read the papers beforehand, the ones that said DeMarcus Ware would be applying the pressure in that game, not Jared and his buddies? 6 sacks of Romo! That's not respecting the Cowboys, and it sure is forgetting that that they won a SB in 1996! When Jared turned Jason Whitten into the Human Turnstile, it was obvious that he had not gotten the memo. And the aftermath of the game hasn't helped in any way. Why, just Googling "Keith Brooking Crying" brings up thousands of hits, with most of them echoing Troy Aikman and Jimmy Johnson's comments; if you don't want that old guy scoring, stop them! Why doesn't the country take the Cowboy's side? After all, you're America's team, right? And Troy and Jimmy!!! What a bunch of turncoats!!! They never achieved the greatness that you have, Keith, and their jealousy is definitely showing.
I'm sorry I was so hard on you, Keith. I tell you what; to try and make it up, I'll send an email to Roger Goodell tomorrow, and ask him to intervene. The heck with the regular season, I'll ask him to tell the Vikings they have to stay home, and you guys can..., no, scratch that. I was going to ask him about this weekend, but the Saints don't belong to be there ahead of the Cowboys, either. You guys should go straight to Miami, and wait for whoever will fall prey to you this year; Colts or the Jets. It's a big thing to ask, but I'm sure the commish will be fine with it; after all, you guys are America's Team!
