Mike Singletary would have just taken his pants off and whined and ed like a little girl. No different than what that nut job is doing already.
The team sucks. My 'Horns blow it to a bunch of rejects from the dust bowl, the Cowboys are beyond pathetic, and the Spurs are old, slow, injury prone, and winless.

It could be worse. You could be from Seattle.
Tape it up? It's the bone in his hand, not his pinkie finger. How do you tape your hand up?
I heard that it was his pinkie finger, not a bone in his hand.
Yeah, Brad Johnson is playing with a broken arm!
great game...
so how many of you threw something after bollinger's first pass...
No but i will laugh my ass off when pitt kills the skins mondaygreat game...

It could be worse. Nevermind.
Didn't bother me nearly as much as when they decided to keep Johnson in when they had a short field, and then he proceeded to throw a pass behind the receiver. Wade's fear just permeates the entire team.great game...

The break is actually in the bone in his hand that extends the pinkie down to the wrist.
either way, I really want him Back!!!!
Unless he plays defense, how's it going to matter?
you vatos hang tough, i can easily see the cowboys beating the skins in two weeks...it's you guys desperation game...
if that happens, you will all be talking superbowl again...
Cowboys fans typically talk superbowl after every win, and doom and gloom after every loss. At this point I don't like the idea of them getting it together for one week and screwing it up for Washington. With Romo and Jones back they'll certainly have more chances to score points.you vatos hang tough, i can easily see the cowboys beating the skins in two weeks...it's you guys desperation game...

The Cowboys are clearly capable of being good, but they do all the little things wrong, and make stupid decision after stupid decision. Parcells was able to win 10 games with Quincy Carter by getting them to stop committing penalties and play solid football for the entire game. I've seen enough of Wade Phillips to say that I don't think the Cowboys are going to be able to do any such thing. Couple that with the large number of really unlikable players and they're hard to root for. Jason Garrett has been such a trainwreck as a play caller I don't know how he's going to do as a head coach. Seems like the offesnive players respect him a whole lot more than anyone respects Wade.
i just saw a replay of a giants running play.
who is that pussy thats afraid to tackle?
Mike Jenkins
that was goddawful
the amount of s in this thread ignoring the fact that he BROKE A BONE is disgusting. I'd like to see ANY of ya'll break a bone in your throwing hand and be able to accurately throw a goddamn ball, much less GRIP IT.

Bill Parcells built this team to have staying power during his four years as head coach and GM adviser.
That said, it was clearly time for him to go because the players had stopped responding to him, but Jerry Jones and Wade Phillips have wrecked this team far quicker than I had ever imagined.
It has happened for two reasons: The culture of discipline Parcells created has been destroyed and the team has lost its edge.
Here's how the culture has been destroyed: Whether you liked him or not, Parcells demanded accountability from every player; Phillips does not.
We all know it.
This team didn't really have a core of strong leadership -- players who had no problem telling their teammates when they were screwing up -- so Parcells took that responsibility. He had two Super Bowl rings and will be inducted into the Hall of Fame one day, which ensured players respected him and did whatever he asked. Those who didn't found employment elsewhere.
Phillips has never won a playoff game -- he is 0-4 -- so he has never received the same level of respect as Parcells.
Parcells had the power to get rid of players, no questions asked. Phillips doesn't, so he'll never have the same level of respect from the players. Why do you think Greg Ellis talked to Jerry Jones about his role in the defense?
He wouldn't have done that with Parcells here because he knew it wouldn't have mattered. Why do you think T.O. regularly shows up late to morning meetings? He knows there's no real consequence.
The players know Phillips doesn't have the ultimate authority, so they don't fear him. That, my friends, leads to a culture of losing.
But the biggest reason the culture Parcells created is gone is that no one is here to reinforce it.
When Parcells left, he took VP of college and pro scouting Jeff Ireland with him. He took Tony Sparano and three core defensive coaches as well. Yes, Jason Garrett is still here, but he's not a Parcells' guy. He's a Norv Turner guy.
That means everyone with ties to Parcells, who respected the previous culture and could maintain the same type of environment is gone.
That's why the environment has changed - and it's not coming back. This team is in the midst of a free fall. Do you have confidence anyone in the organization can stop the plummet?
I didn't think so.
This team has also lost its edge under Wade Phillips.
Parcells believed in churning the bottom of the roster, which meant if you weren't a proven player with a defined role, he was always looking to replace you.
That's why the Cowboys would work out 4-5 players every Tuesday. Sometimes, they signed a player, sometimes they didn't.
But it kept the last 15-20 guys on the roster on edge because they never knew when they might get replaced. That forced them to practice a little harder or study a little more video or lift just a few more weights because they might get replaced if they didn't.
Phillips believes that once you've made the team in training camp, you're part of the Dallas Cowboys' 53-man family. He's not looking to replace anyone and I think that creates an environment of complacency.
Now, you're seeing the shoddy results.
