Getting ready for Sunday

I've been spending the day getting ready for the game.  Since Dish Network doesn't have my locals in HD yet, I either have the option of watching the games in SD, or hooking an antenna up.  I had a small indoor antenna, but the gain was awful and the picture always dropped in and out... usually right when Romo was connecting with Owens for a long TD.

Star-divide

So this weekend, I installed an outdoor, high gain UHF antenna.  The reception is now perfect.  I'm ready to watch the game in beautiful, flicker free HD!!!

 

Changing gears a little...

 

This summer, my wife took a trip to Russia.  While she was there, she picked up souveneirs for everyone, including an awesome one for me.  I'm not sure where she found this, but it rocks.

 

Here's Tony Romo, a beautifully hand painted matryoshka.

Open him up, and you find TO.

Open up TO, and you find Adam Jones!

Inside of Pacman is The Barbarian!

And inside of MB3 is the Folk Hero!

And here's a shot from the back of all five:

How can the Cowboys possible lose with powerful totems like these?  Right now, Romo sits by my desk with the rest of the guys bottled up. Hopefully they'll bring the juju on gameday.

 

How Bout Them Cowboys!!

Here's to the Juju

A true diehard Cowboys fan since 1975.

"If you don’t take him off the field as a coach, he will just about die out there," Jerry Jones said. "That impacted my decision. It’s a Michael Irvin-type work ethic. That’s what we are talking about with Felix Jones."
