If it wasn’t the Roy story they would find something else. It’s too bad we can’t have more guys like Choice on the roster though. Imagine if Choice was in Roy’s exact position. Do you think people would be talking about this? Do you hear the things Choice says? While I think Roy deserves some slack in regards to his comments, he could do a better job of praising the guys who are making up for his lack of production. He could take notes from T. Choice, who is the ideal teammate

With the cap, it’s not just a one shot deal.

He had one big year in the NFL, which is increasingly looking like a career year, never to be repeated or even approached again. What has he done in Dallas that makes everyone say he is talented? Downfield blocking? Really?

We could have kept Stanback at a much cheaper price if we just wanted some ‘talent’ coupled with ‘potential’ on the team

I don’t fault the Cowboys for making that deal. I do fault them for way over-paying for RW.

rephrased

micro-analysis of any possible “issue” for the purpose of stirring up emotion and their own ratings that bothers fans. Of course it’s all true that these guys are not connecting on the field.

It would be a little like a your girlfriend’s best friend always pointing out your flaws to her. Of course you have flaws, who doesn’t, but who wants someone else trying to create problems over them? It’s petty, it’s not really news and it serves no other purpose except to try to milk air time.

Whatever is preventing Roy and Romo from hooking up, it’s eating Roy alive, and that’s all I need to see. He’ll get it straight. It appears that Garrett is beginning to put Roy in slants, and I would bet that Roy gets at least one ball on a deep post Sunday night. In goal line situations, expect to see Roy in a fade route. I bet Romo and Roy have been practicing the jump ball, as well. I’d have to say that Roy’s ribs are feeling better by now.

The other point to consider is that the only pressure on this situation is what Roy is putting on himself. As far as Romo and the boys are concerned, I see them continuing to spread the wealth (excuse the expression) around. Austin is a given for at least 7 balls, Hurd is going to get some chances, Crayton is going to get his 4 or 5 balls, and even Ogletree now seems to be on Garrett and Romo’s radar.

Man, with the 3 headed monster and two fine TE’s, we’re going to need 65 snaps a game just to keep everyone happy. The more they spread the ball around, the more dangerous this team becomes. It takes away the defense’s ability to double one man when you never know where the ball is going.

The LOS is all about acceleration, not top speed.

we think ought to be dropped, but I don’t think it’s based on us knowing more than the coaches or misplaced loyalty. I think they compare what they have with who might be available and what the delta is in performance. They also take into account what they think a player is capable of and perhaps hope they can coach him into becoming. The better the pedigree (draft position, past performance), the more patience they tend to have.

What could they have gotten for him in a trade? And he’s still “marginally productive”.

The MSM doesn’t simply report what happens and leave it to us to decide. That’s 9th Journalism class stuff. What they choose to report and what they choose not to report and how they spin what is reported makes all the diffference.

These guys dig into what they know already to be an emotional issue for Williams – his status as a “number 1”, his high and expectations, and the lack of sync between a proud WR and his QB – and ask as many questions of him as they can until they get the emotional response they were looking for. They’re not passively interviewing players and seeing what comes up. They know what they are after and they set the conditions for getting it.

It’s not about immediately defending one’s favorite team. This blog criticizes more than it praises. It’s about seeing guys like Werder see what crap they can create and of course with no regard for the people involved. And most people do blame Williams for running his mouth. All that proves is that the guys asking the questions are more clever than the guy answering them.

And it’s still not news. Just E! style tabloid crap.

I “lie about what the story is”? Then you offer an alternate version that’s supposed to be a truer reduction than mine?

And the national media has been beating around this issue for weeks, not a day.

So you’re a big MSM defender? OK. Sorry if I offended you. Not.

Poppycock. It was the first topic Skippy and crew discussed on Stale Pizza this morning and it was the very first thing Len Pasquarelli touched upon when he called into 790thezone, Atlanta’s flagship sports radio station.

I take it all back; BSPN is clearly your favorite sports franchise.

I assume you’re talking about the other Roy Williams. Let’s see how long he lasted after he quit being productive. More than two years? Is Keith Davis still here? What are you even talking about?
