I've got nothing more against the Cowboys than any other NFC East team, but the reason Dallas gets so much ire from everyone else stems from Jerry Jones and his ego. The Cowboys haven't been terrible in recent history, but to listen to the guy, you'd think the Cowboys have won every year and deserve to win when they don't. His constant need for attention and proclaiming the team to be something more than it is really annoys people and, coupled with ESPN realizing how polarizing the team is and how they can use them to get viewers by having Ed Werder stationed in Jerry's colon with hourly reports, it just gets.....obnoxious and old very fast. That personality just permeates the entire organization and makes it obnoxious to most. Wade Phillip's "The better team lost" last year in the playoffs when the Giants beat them, "Get your ring finger ready" in preseason, Terrance Newman's "We've got the best talent in the NFL, but that doesn't always get the job done" and on and on. The team is not very gracious in defeat and even more annoying in victory. Add in the fact that Terrell Owens is a head case who makes it easy to hate him and whatever team he's playing for and Pacman Jones and Tank Johnson and..... Get the picture? Its a conglomerate of egomaniacal juveniles who make it very difficult not to enjoy them falling flat. Basically, when you're cheering for the Cowboys, you're cheering for every evil team in all of those Disney sports movies that we were taught to despise growing up. It's like the Hawks and Iceland joined up with Skeletar as the owner. That, in summation, is the Dallas Cowboys to the outside viewer. I respect the Cowboys fans on this site that display they know what they're talking about, but do have to say, they suffer greatly from Bandwagon-itis, making them that much more annoying.

Off topic: Check out how "Icebox" looks now.... Oh yes, I know how she looks now. I google'd her name to see how she turned out. Surprised, to say the least. I bet you got her number, so you can just call her and enjoy HER Icebox! I don't know what that even means.

AP source: 2010 Pro Bowl will be in Miami By TIM REYNOLDS – 1 hour ago MIAMI (AP) — The Pro Bowl will be played one week before the Super Bowl in 2010 and both games will be staged in Dolphin Stadium, a person directly involved in the decision told The Associated Press on Monday. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the NFL has not announced the move. It's not a new notion to have the game moved up to take place between the conference championship games and the Super Bowl. The NFL has discussed it multiple times in recent years, and commissioner Roger Goodell told the AP last month that having the game precede the Super Bowl would avoid a "somewhat anticlimactic" ending to the season. The Pro Bowl has been held in Honolulu since 1980, and it's probable that the game will return to Hawaii after 2010, although not on the permanent basis as has been the case over the last three decades. It won't be South Florida's first Pro Bowl: the 1975 game took place in Miami's Orange Bowl, during a period when the site rotated annually. Barring a schedule change, next season's Pro Bowl will take place Jan. 31, 2010, with the Super Bowl that year on Feb. 7. The league's plan is for players on the AFC and NFC championship squads not to take part in the Pro Bowl. Miami was awarded the 2010 Super Bowl three years ago, a record 10th time the game will come to the Dolphins' home city. The notion of adding the Pro Bowl to the lineup in South Florida was first discussed several months ago. It's not clear when the final decision was made to move the game. Hawaii tourism officials have lobbied in recent months to extend the game's current contract, which expires after this season's Pro Bowl, pointing to the fact that it's been sold out every year since moving to Honolulu and generates about $30.5 million in visitor spending and tax revenues. And earlier this year, Hawaii's state government released $11 million for lighting and roofing improvements at Aloha Stadium, part of ongoing upgrades designed to refurbish and modernize the aging stadium. State officials have also considered demolishing the facility and building a new stadium. So they have found a way to make the Pro Bowl more worthless? It really takes away when you have players that will be in the Super Bowl not playing in the Pro Bowl....

I personally hate them because they were labeled as "America's Team" back in the early 90's. That bothered me. A NFL team full of guys that get arrested after the best years of a franchise do not make "America's Team" -- well, it shouldn't at least. Same here. I always felt The Patriots should of been given the nickname of America's team. They were red/white/blue and their friggin name was Patriots. This was years before theyre SB wins when they were AFC jobbers so it's not a recent thing. Besides. Nobody has anything good to say about Texas these days , calling them right wing politics and a state of nutcases so why would people plug a team from what alot of people say is a severly right thinking state as the countries icon football team? Nearly everybody badmouths Texas and the Cowboys are chock full of assholes so it's not the best combination.

I'm a Skins fan, so hating the Cowboys is like a birth right. I have a Dallas Cowboys helmet sticker in both my toilets, so that should tell you how much I dislike them.

I rooted for both Al Bundy and the Little Cowboys in that film. I hated that film. It came out at the time I was watching NY job to the Cowboys left and right. Then this film comes along where a bunch of retards beat the yuppy Cowboys. Just salt in the wound that we couldn't do it in real life then Hollywood spits out a corny movie that's supposed to make people feel good about losers. Just made me depressed. I was glad when the sports domination cycle turned away from the Cowboys in the late 90s.

According to the Newark Star-Ledger, Dolphins VP of Football Operations Bill Parcells is telling those close to him that he would consider coaching again if the right situation comes about.

NFL.com's Adam Schefter reports that Marty Schottenheimer is willing to coach again "in the right situation surrounded by the right people."

You forgot the part where Romo collapses. I could have....but the situation is weird as it is. Him collapsing in a shower while TO watches would go into fanfic territory.
