Why are the cowboys wearing their throwbacks a week before thanksgiving?
I noticed teams have started wearing their throwbacks multiple times a year, but these jersey’s should stay on thanksgiving only. They’ll probably wear them back to back weeks now.

I heard them on one of the local pre-game shows here in DFW talking like it was pretty sure he would start..I caught the tail end of it, but
they were saying it won’t be as bad for him this week since 49’rs don’t have a Santana Moss….figured they had to be talking about T-New

I also want to see some Choice
this game. Felix isn’t coming back and they need to limit MB3’s carries at least slightly. Give the kid about 5-10 touches at least.
I'LL 2nd that motion! That kid (choice) has some fire...runs with some passion. I think that's what happens when
you have dedicated players for the rookies to look up to…in Choice’s case it’s the Barbarian..and we know nobody runs with more heart than that dude
by Loozeeana_Cowboy on Nov 23, 2008 11:56 AM CST up reply actions
Pretty confident
But I also felt confident last week, even after we went down 7-0 and everyone here turned to chicken little
According to Brad Sham
Terrence Newman is “going to be okay”. He said Newman improved dramatically yesterday and worked out well in the pregame warmups today.
Sounds like he’ll be starting.
I cant believe he is gonna roll today.
I hope he’s really healthy. If not we’ll know quick.

What scares me a little is
that newly installed head coach for the 49’rs. Football is mostly decided by mental strength and heart…and if anyone can get the 49’rs to play way above their level it’s Singletary….not trying to be a negative Nancy or anything – i still say we whip their a$$es today

Troy your an idiot... I want Moose
Henry had his eyes on the ball and was trying to make a play on it. It doesn’t matter if there is contact. That will never get called
i disagree with them - NO PI
he was going for the ball, and the DB is allowed to rest his other hand on the other player as long as he’s not pushing him or changing his direction, right?

Getting out of that first quarter only down 6-0 is a coup
There are three more quarters to turn this around, and we are down less than a touchdown.
