Gerald Sensabaugh: The “Sensei” Delivers Again

Posted: 27th October 2009 by Phillip Brennan in NFL
Perhaps lost in the CowboysÆáimportant win against Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons this weekendá was the quietly stellar performance of starting strong safety Gerald Sensabaugh. Coming back for his first game since breaking his thumb against Denver in Week Four, Sensabaugh was faced with the tall task of matching up with AtlantaÆs future Hall of Fame tight end, Tony Gonzalez. Sensabaugh didnÆt flinch. After giving up a 17-yard reception early to Gonzalez ...

For Dallas Cowboy Fans, Reality Bites

Posted: 7th October 2009 by Phillip Brennan in NFL
Remember in your youth when you naively got into that relationship with that special someone despite all the red flags that went off in your brain. WeÆve all done it. Sure, that personádidn't have the best pedigreeáand did things a bit different, but you loved the way they improvised and made everything seem exciting. You couldn't resist. Somewhere down the line you said fooey to better judgment and dove right in, head-over-heels. Everything was fresh ...

Cowboys’ Stock Report: Week Three

Posted: 30th September 2009 by Phillip Brennan in NFL
2009ùWeek Three Dallas Cowboysù21Carolina Panthersù7 Box Score á Stock Up After a complete meltdown in Week Two, Tony Romo gets on the list if for no other reason than not turning the ball over. Romo looked tentative and measured during the first half but loosened up by the second, at one point even completing an impromptu pass to running back Tashard Choice that saw the ball go from one sideline across to the other.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot...Romo sucks! If you're a Cowboy fan, some variation of these sentiments were likely uttered from your lips as the Cowboys laid a palatial egg in front of God and country last Sunday night. Nothing like a loss in Week Two that'll put a team's entire fan base in a tizzy. Well, it appears the honeymoon is over between Cowboy fans and Tony Romo. Romo managed to put together one of the worst, if ...

Sssssshhh! New York’s Running Donkey Has Something to Say

Posted: 15th September 2009 by Phillip Brennan in NFL
If you're not familiar with the player pictured above laying prostrate on the ground like a dead guppy, that would be none other than New York Giant running back, Brandon Jacobs.  Or, as I like to affectionately call him, "the world's dumbest professional athlete." A little harsh?  Trust me, it's not really. See, Jacobs has a problem.  He has a pea-sized brain that sits inside a malformed cone-shaped cranium which rests on top of a giant 6'4" 264 ...

Cowboys’ Stock Report: Week One

Posted: 13th September 2009 by Phillip Brennan in NFL
2009—Week One Dallas Cowboys—34Tampa Bay Buccaneers—21Box Score   Stock Up Although he looked a bit rusty in the first couple of offensive series, Tony Romo looked great when making the right reads and selling the defense with his eyes.  Case in point, on the 80-yard touchdown pass to Patrick Crayton, Romo rolled slightly to his right and stared down Jason Witten.  The safety, Sabby Piscitelli, bit on Romo going to Witten in the flat, which ...
