It's my fault

PrintGuys, I'm going to have to take the blame for the Cowboys loss.
I didn't do my part as a fan to insure the win. Every time the Cowboys play, I wear my lucky shirt. This time, I was too busy after church to go and put my shirt on. Instead of watching the game at my house, sitting on my couch, I chose to watch the game at my parents house with my dad.
There have been two times this season that I didn't watch the game at my house: The Skins (my dad was in the hospital, and we watched it together there) and yesterday afternoon. Both of those times we lost. We lost the AZ game too, but we had a fighting chance, until the stupid special teams cost us the game.
So if there is anyone to blame for yesterday's loss, it's me. I take full responsibility.
Unfortunately, I can't be in town next weekend, so I'm going to have to figure out some kind of mojo-projection system that works from a location other than the right seat of my living room couch.

don't be to hard on yourself
it’s my fault, I swear it’s true, I made hot wings the first 3 weeks of the season on the day of the game, and over the last month I haven’t made them and Dallas’ play has suffered. don’t worry though, i’m mkaing wings from here on out, get readyt o go on a huge run!
Coming
from the enemy blog BBV, I don’t want to wear out my welcome here. However, I had some interesting comments about how the Boys’ and Yanks’ are very similar.
Boys’ fans quickly defended their team and rightfully so. But as I woke up this morning with a 2 game lead on yous, I went to Peter King’s MMQB, lo and behold, there is a photo of Jones shaking Stein’s hand and how the ‘boys free spending ways hurts chemistry and the league’. Now Im not one for a told you so’s…. BUT I TOLD YOU SO.
Good luck picking up the pieces.
WTF are you talking about?
team chemistry? talent? coaching? BLAH! I’m telling you it’s the f’n wings! if I had made them we’d be 7-0 right now!!!!
Obviously, he's not a fan
A real fan understands that how your team performs is a direct result of the enthusiasm you the fan generate for the team. Obviously, more St. Louis fans were directing more cosmic fan-energies towards the Rams than we Cowboys faithful were doing towards the Cowboys. I chastise you, stephen1 for your lack of wings.
Next Sunday, I shall eat wings while I watch them Boys, and I hoe you do the same…
How Bout Them Cowboys!
yeah, that and wearing the dreaded road blues
definitely did the trick…hate those road blues, just hate them!
In Romo we Trust
+1
There’s gotta be some stat that shows the Cowboys’ losing % wearing the blue jerseys.
When I saw that they were wearing the dreaded blues, I reversed my dog’s bandana to match. Maybe I shoulda kept it on the white side!
That #38 sure should wrap up!

I know its gotten better over the past several years
but when I was a kid watching them in the ’70s and then into the ’80s, it seemed like they always played bad and usually lost when wearing the road blues.
I was surprised to see the Rams wearing their white jerseys as they always wear their blue jerseys at home.
In Romo we Trust
Guess my new Tony Dorsett shirt didn't help the running game.
I did find a hole in the side of the stitching, akin to the holes the Rams were able to gash our O-line with.
That #38 sure should wrap up!

I'll take some credit.... I mean blame
I started a post about similar subjects. Problem is that I have growing kids… I have been trying to work in some new gear over the last few weeks, and it just isn’t working. I will try to see if I can stuff my 3 year old back in last years gear, there may be some tears , but no pain no gain, right?
My Bad Too
Not my fault, but kinda. The game was blacked out where I live, because the stupid Giants were playing on Fox. When I don’t watch, things suffer. Like the Washington Game. I ahd to run out of the house because some neighborhood kids threw some rocks through my open door. When I got back, they had lost.
(Ironically, the door was wide open because it is the only way I can get Fox with my rabbit ear antenna)
So between me not watching and the road Blues, i guess there is enough blame to go around.
Me: "We got Roy Wiliams in a trade today." My Wife: "What does that mean?" Me: "Well, it at least means that there are two poeple playing for the 'Boys now with the same name."
A few hours later: My Wife: "If our next child is a boy, what would you want to name it?" Me: "How aobut Roy Wiliams?"
Me too
I was watching the game @ Scholtzky’s when MB3 scored the opening TD and our Boyz were up 7-0.
I stopped watching because we had to leave the restaurant, and when I turned on the TV @ home later in the day, Dallas was down 24-7.
I jinxed the team by not staying at that eating establishment for the whole entire game.
It’s my fault, fellas.
My bust.
