Barking Carnival

Awash the good feelings of a “successful” campaign, the Boys’ head into the offseason with a sense of stability as Wade Phillips was rewarded with a contract extension through 2011 after guiding the Cowboys back to the playoffs.

Cowboys fans this morning are very predictably lashing out at their two favorite whipping boys of the last few seasons: Head Coach Wade Phillips and Quarterback Tony Romo.

It’s getting to the point where I have to reconsider my opinion of Wade Phillips. I’ve already had to back off on my early season write-off of Tony Romo. After he imploded in the early stadium-opening game against the Giants, I turned to my son and declared

Big huge mountain sized game for the Pokes tonight when they face arch rival Philadelphia for a third time this season.

Holy cow, the hits just keep on coming for former Texas Longhorns in the NFL... Jamaal Charles, who barely saw the field in the first half of this season, shattered the Kansas City Chiefs' single-game rushing record today, running up 259 yards on the day, putting him over 1,100 yards for the season. Chiefs' LB Derrick Johnson ran back two interceptions for touchdowns in the team's upset of the Broncos, and flashed the Hook 'em sign after

Watching the Cowboys is in many ways like watching the Texas Longhorns – you have your QB who can scramble and make good stuff happen when plays break down, an offensive line that is not much good at pass protection, one great wide receiver and kind of a crap shoot after you get past him, a highly-paid offensive coordinator who often drives fans batshit crazy, and a defense that keeps the team in pretty much

So, as a Cowboy fan I'm interested in seeing the 'Boys validate their big road win over Tampa Bay by beating a divisional rival at home. I flip on the TV and 3 hours, 18 bad bounces and a half dozen Tony Romo turnovers later, Lawrence Tynes is kicking a game winning field goal in a game in which the Pokes had dominated . Seriously, the game should have been a 31 to

Mecca is this way.

Dallas Cowboys cornerback and possible member of Al Qaeda, Orlando Scandrick, purposely injured Roy Williams’ shoulder during a practice yesterday. After the collision between the two players, Scandrick made fake crying sounds and mockingly clung to his shoulder. While the star receiver laid writhing on the turf, Scandrick took advantage of the break by enjoying one of his patented kitten sandwiches and washed it down with a refreshing glass of Christian blood.

playing America's Game in America's Stadium. The Cowboys hosted Tennessee in a relatively meaningless pre-season game last Friday night -- and the game finished in the Top Twenty in prime time ratings for the week. Over 6.6 million viewers tuned in to make it the most watched sporting event of the week. Fox assumed (correctly) that a lot of folks would tune in to see the latest Jerry Jones allegiance to excess.

A while back, Scipio took a look at The Wonderful World of Martellus Bennett. Marty has most recently ventured into short fiction (or has been hanging out with Ken Kesey). One of his most recent blog posts entitled I found them.... is stunning. It is the stuff of legend. I have alerted the PEN/O. Henry prize people. We have also invited him to join the Barkers.
