Hey BD, I was telling a co-worker about your needing a asst.
He told me he was going to get a stupid stamp and hit me with it on the forehead if I told you no.

Whens the game starting?
This stuff is lame.

I agree, I want to see some football, not listen to a early SB hype.
I am going to miss the game and have to go to bed if they don’t shut up.
No word on KO time?
Sigh I don’t want to watch the game as it is, cmon! It was worth it to see Aaron Rodger still upset haha.

I believe I see yellow streaks down the side and up the tail, that would be the blue angles.
They are dark to, the thunderbirds are white.
Those aren't US fighters.
The angels fly FA-18s, the Thunderbirds fly f-16s (unless they have changed). Also, they only fly six ship formations. I think that picture is a British or French team (they also have red, white and blue flags). Might be the Red Arrows.

Wings aren't right, and it looks too small for a Tornado BD
Look more like A-4 Sky Hawks to me……..but even then I don’t think that is Correct.
Here’s a theoretical play from 2010: Snap. Tony takes 7 step drop. Tony looks left at Miles, who is doubled, and looks right to where Roy Williams should be…but instead sees Colombo on his back and a Defensive End foaming at the mouth jumping over Marc’s carcass. Tony proceeds to run like hell and look for Witten

actually, it is a Hawk
US Navy started to use a modified version of this some years ago, called T-45 Goshawk.
Tornado is a huge aircraft compared to this, and features variable wings.

Did they sweep the horizontal stabilizer down that much in the modifications?

the Horizontal Stabilizer

i meant what you meant by 'sweeping'.
sorry, English is not my native language :)
btw, Ironman made a good search for pics. my educated guess would have been no, that would have been a big change.
when you make a carrier-based version from a land-based figher, the first things you change is the stress-bearing ability of the fuselage, i.e. strengthen the frames, get a massive landing gear, strengthen the tail section so that the arresting hook does not tear off the back of the fuselage. that is what was made on this plane imo.

well lets compare(Love Google)

Red Arrow T-1:
Honestly BD they Look about the same…though I did see a few images that looked like the H/S was perpendicular to the Fuselage…..

actually i like airplanes, so i'm at an unfair advantage.
plus, they’re somewhere between first to third most famous team in that business (other two are Thunderbirds and Blue Angels, make your choice). the nice thing in European acrobatics teams is that they use homemade trainers (then English use the Hawk, the French use the Alpha Jet, the Italian use the Aermacchi MB339, and the Spanish and the Poles have something from their own industry), or they use the F5 (Switzerland, Turkey).
no one flies big fighters in their teams except for USN, USAF and sometimes the Russians, when they can put together a few working Su-27s.

"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
Is this the first time they are having an NFL honors/award show?
Or have I just never watched it?
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
first time
Dallas Defense = Cowboys from Hell
first time
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
hmm Ill watch once then haha
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
Romo should be at this game. Non Cowboys fans are haters
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
The media shapes many peoples perceptions.
They fawned all over Newton and called Tony a choker.
Atleast we get to see Rat and Ware right away
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
Gates got in the PB on reputation
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
RATTTTT

NFC not letting Ware do his thing?
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
4-3 no blitzing..
he can’t do his thing haha
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
LOL, should've played him at DE
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
that's what he is in the 43
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
but probowl already has 4-3 DEs.. he is selected as LB
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
no
Mayock said it best “pretty much cant’ do anything”
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
I liked when they use to have competitions and stuff during the week.
The probowl should just be a much of skll competitions.
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
I miss the QB competition
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
Wouldn't you rather watch
Rodgers and Brees duke it out throwing at targets etc ..
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
much more entertaining
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
or Bailey and some other kicker playing FG horse
"The tone is business," Garrett said. "Let's get to work. The Giants are going to be at the Meadowlands on Sunday at 4:15. They're an awfully good football team. We have to get ready for them."
And DE's taking out dummys with force meters on them.
The NFL really should explore this. Much more interesting.
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo
tackling a dummy? No way.
"Obviously, I felt like if I ran into my lineman there it was going to help the play" ~Tony Romo

Pretty much is touch football until the last 5 mins or so.
Then they will be playing for that extra pay to cover the bills they ran up this week.

The last time I watched a pro-bowl game Bob Lily played in it. There's really no point to it.
I just afraid someone will end up with a career ending injury. Especially a Cowboy. I know the players must like to trip and all, but really, they make enough money to go to Hawaii anyway.

I watched the HBO documentary on Joe Namath last night. It was very well done,
and I’d recommend to to my fellow BTBers. It shows Namath in a very personal way. It’s hard not the really like the guy. Actually I liked him just fine before I watched it, but now I can see how personable and down to earth he really is, and always has been.

Joe Willy, used to watch the Jets practice when I was in college.
All he had to do was flick his wrist and the ball shot out of his hand as if he hit a line drive, Truly amazing!!!
Wish you were here and comfortably numb.
Brings back some old memories.
When I was in Med School, the Skins used to practice on campus. Sonny Jergenson was something else. He used to throw 30-40 yard spirais behind his back to Charlie Taylor on the fly.

and Jergy would still hit him on the fly. I’ve never seen anything like it!

Umm
No way. I would definitely take Romo over Can right now.
by wittenfan on Jan 29, 2012 8:52 PM CST via mobile up reply actions
I'm a Cam fan, but I'll take Tony over him every day.
There’s only 4 QBs I’d trade Tony for:
1) Brady
2) Brees
3) Rodgers
4) Big Ben
That’s it. Peyton’s not likely to play again. Vick is overrated. Smith, Flacco and Ryan, no thanks. Romo, Rivers, and Dumbfac. Eli are a toss up.

For me
Brady wouldn’t survive behind our offensive line
Brees and Rodgers I would take
I’m a female so I don’t want Big Ben anywhere near the Cowboys
Rivers is a toss up I agree, so would rather have Romo
Eli has crazy luck sometimes, wish the Cowboys could have some of that

what exactly has Romo done?
Vick carried one of the very worst teams of the decade to the conference championship, Smith, Rivers, Flacco have been to conference championships,
and Eli.. do I even have to explain myself? Lol @ Romo. Young Cam Newton over Romo easily.
i forgot to mention
Romo with 13 pro bowlers… GETS YOU NOWHERE. This team is doomed.
Pro bowl voting
Is a popularity contest. Though I will say 2007 was our best chance, however a couple of bad plays, I.e Patrick Crayton dropping a touchdown pass, cost us that game.
by wittenfan on Jan 29, 2012 9:40 PM CST via mobile up reply actions
yeah, that INT helped us.
What exactly has Romo done in his career? There are three quarterbacks in this division (including Rex Grossman for Gods sake) that have done more in the playoffs.
Tony Romo with 13 Pro Bowlers = one and out
We will not make the playoffs next year with Romo.
i wasn't able to
Watch that particular game, but wasn’t that interception a hail Maryvor fourth down pass at the end of the game? That kind of changes things. You can’t just look at stats in a vacuum and think they tell the whole story. With Romo as our QB, I think we always have a chance.
by wittenfan on Jan 29, 2012 9:46 PM CST via mobile up reply actions
Only been a Cowboys fan for 4 years?
Must be because if you have been a fan longer than that then how in the hell could you have not seen the 2007 playoff game? Can’t use work for any excuse because a real fan would have found a way out of it to watch the big game. We go 13-3, win our Division, get a bye week, and you missed it?

Stop being an ass. All you had to do was check her profile to see she is in the military.
And we vets CAN use our work as an excuse to miss a Cowboys playoff game when we are deployed overseas.
In the 17 seasons from 1966-1982, the Cowboys went at least to the conference championship game 14 times. In the 16 seasons from 1996-2011, the Cowboys have won 2 wild card games.
Jesus Christ
On the Cowboys second to last drive of the game:
T.O. Dropped a pass at the goalline, Cowboys punt.
On the Cowboys final drive of the game, here’s the last 3 plays:
1) Witten drops a pass at the 20 yard line
2) Crayton Drops a TD
3) Terry Glenn lets the pass get intercepted in the endzone on a pass that was intended for him.

Romo threw a perfect pass that Crayton dropped, which would’ve gone for a game sealing TD. Was Romo supposed to run and hand the ball to him like a relay race?
The DBs couldn’t cover Burress and Toomer, was Romo supposed to do their job for them?
DeMarcus Ware was dealing with the sad news that his wife miscarried, and was getting schemed out of the game by the Giants. What’s Romo got to do with that?
The Giants took away the Dallas running game in the second half, and were rushing him up the middle with stunts, and twists. He was running for his life. His he supposed to snap the ball to himself, and block for himself as well?
Seriously, think before you speak, otherwise you look stupid.

I've never understood why the Dallas O line looked weaker and the Giants

spags adjusted his dline in the second half
it was two different games

plus big bad Leo dived on a Giants defender already on the turf.
probably wanted to prevent him getting crapped all over his jersey by a stray bird.
was good for a fifteen plus a dead drive.

Football is still a team sport. Just looking at QB play, I would take Romo any day based on actually watching the games.

Brandon, please put the crack pipe down and step away
I like Cam and what he has done this year as a rookie, but to even think Cam is as good or better than Romo is, well I will just stop there.

Am I crazy to think a defensive coordinator should/would watch film of this pro bowl on how to defend Cam Newton?
The AFC is shutting him down with their four man rush.

The DLine is doing a great job of holding point and not giving good passing lanes then are doing great persuing him to the edge.
It is the only way to really make Cam ineffective.

agree and agree
did Ware have another stellar year or is he coasting on reputation? No offense just don’t know.
Did ratliff play 4-3 DT today?
There was a really good fanpost about you going to a 4-3 and I surprisingly liked it. I always disagree with Giants convertability to 3-4…

If I'm a defensive coordinator
I’m watching tape of how Cam Newton is struggling against a 4 man rush. I’d never blitz him until he proves he can beat this.
He’s absolutely struggling against the vanilla defense in the pro bowl.

That would pretty much work on every QB.

well Cam Newton demonstrating why while he had an impressive season for a rookie
he’s not actually on a pro bowl level yet, and making the snub of Romo/Stafford all the more obvious.
"When you want to win a game, you have to teach. When you lose a game, you have to learn."—Tom Landry
That's why every single article defending his selection has annoyed me. So, he did well
for a rookie. That’s not what the Pro Bowl is supposed to be about.
Everyone take care
