Oh well, from the way it looks, he has more than a couple of ladies to console him over the off season.

blame the nfl for that ball. the teams are no longer allowed to switch to kicking and passing balls like they used to. the teams are also no longer allowed to use the balls in practice to brake them in.

I thought it was a great tackle.
That had to be two of the worst playoff teams I have seen. The Giants made a much better show. The Cowboys were just absolutely inept. They basically scored one offensive touchdown against a defensive secondary that was pure patchwork.

I will admit I feel sorry for Romo, but not the Cowboys. I love it when Jerry Jones loses. Jones and his best owner friend Al Davis, had great years. These owners that stick their nose into everything. Jones says he wants Parcells and Owens back. What are the chances of that happening? Owens is part of the reason Parcells feels so worn out. All Parcells basically said is we got a great effort out of our young players. That is not the Parcells I know... the bottom line is to win, even if you have to nail a players head to the ground.

Now I hope they both comeback so Jones can suffer a little more, his face lift already fell off. I expect a few more years like this and he will be the white Michael Jackson. Cept he will continue trying to hump his cheerleaders... poor old horny fart.

Here come the crybabies..

Sports guy here claims Witten made the first down and it never should have come down to a field goal as the Cowboys would have scored. What can I say about Cowboy fans.

Big Babies. Your team is bad. They need to get better. Happy viewing from the couch.

that has got to be the worst way to end a season.

but i AM glad that the Bears get Seattle again :D (though it won't be like it was last time, I'd rather it be them)

you're right!
he should have concentrated on the task at hand--no doubt he was working over in his mind the celebration after the game winning FG! ooops.

still can't believe this guy is pro-bowl bound.

are you sure? because I heard Madden say that it was the ball they put into play and I also saw an interview with Romo and he indicated the same thing. That it was the ball the Cowboys put into play. I think it's true about normal offensive stuff, but I think they still use their own ball in the kicking game.

very true....the league does not allow the kicking balls to be used before the game....every team states they are very slick even when they are dry...

Detmer and Akers did Ok in the rain for the game winner...thats all that matters.. GO EAGLES
