That's fine but I think a few days to celebrate a championship isn't to much. Now starting Monday its on to 2017.

PS anyone think its funny hearing people argue over the legal and illegal way to STEAL team signals.

I think it's hilarious since it's been going on since sports began.

I think a D-League for the NFL could be interesting. You are right about no-names being discovered. If the Arena Football League didn't exist chances are nobody today would have a clue who Kurt Warner was. The guy only managed to keep his name out there by being a solid AFL QB for years before the Rams gave him a shot. Now he's in the HOF.

No firsthand frustration of their crappy draft picks. No firsthand information of them playing for almost 20 YEARS before their first playoff game. If you had come on board in 1960, you would have chosen another team a long time ago. I was lucky to have family in the PA. area, and still suffered some real crap seasons when I became a Steelers fan. It's all been gravy for you. We'll see what you think after they've been out of contention for 8-10 years.

Meh. I've been a Falcons fan for as long as I can remember and it was almost all lean years with occasional sunshine until Matt Ryan.

They used to use NFL Europe for almost exactly that.

Raiders signed coach Jack Del Rio to a four-year extension.
Del Rio had two years remaining on his contract but gets a deserved pay raise after being one of the lowest paid coaches in the league. Oakland's defense has underwhelmed under Del Rio, but he has the Raiders on the right track coming off a 12-win season. Del Rio's new deal keeps him signed through 2020.

I wonder how much of a hit Myles Garrett's stock took with his plea for Dallas to trade up to get him. Sure was a slap in the face to Romo!

He wants to be a franchise cornerstone, who can blame him? Dallas is building the kind of team young college studs want to play for.

And where does that end?? College players now get to pick the team the want to play for?
Don't know much about him, but already he strikes me as selfish. Good luck with that!

I want a DE that thinks that much of himself, it's preferable to most of the bums we have other than Tank Johnson.

What draft pick doesn't think that much of himself?
That's not the issue here. The issue is in one statement he basically b*tchslapped your boy Romo by asking Dallas to trade him to Cleveland to trade up and draft him. That is a total bum right there.
And you're condoning it! Wow, so much for the Romo love. Let him fall on the sword, eh?

Hey man! I wish Romo nothing but the best and always will but the success of the Dallas Cowboys comes before the success of any of their players. That includes my favourite Cowboys QB ever.

That might be...but the fact remains you just sold Tony down the river.
Wow...just wow!

I didn't do anything, I expressed the sentiment that the overall success of the team is more important than any one player on that team. That's how I've always felt and always will. Try to see the bigger picture once in awhile.

Oh I can see the bigger picture. I'm just surprised you can!
Your post history suggests Romo is the Holy of Holies! No more Romo praise from you!

Romo is the best QB this team has ever had in my eyes but his time in Dallas is over. Holy of holies isn't something I'd say, I'm agnostic.

I never said you said it, only your post history filled with Romo praise suggests it.
It's ok, I'm sure poor Tony will eventually remove the dagger you planted in his back.
