America's Team

Been watching the latest HBO Sports series called Hard Knocks. It chronicles, in NFL Films documentary style, training camp for The Dallas Cowboys. So far, the first couple of episodes have reached the "ninja" level of awesomeness (which, as anyone knows, is about as awesome as anything gets). I have some thoughts about the Dallas Cowboys that I'd like to share.

1. Tony Romo is pretty talented. I think his quick throwing motion is a necessity in the modern speed-rich NFL game.
2. Jason Witten tops my list of "favorite dudes I'm not important enough to hang out with".
3. Felix Jones-RB, the Cowboys' 2008 first round draft pick and former Razorback, gives an already stacked offense, just one more explosive weapon.
4. Martellus Bennett-TE, the Cowboys' 2nd round pick, needs a good kick in the rear. Totally worthless. His attitude makes me want to either puke or throw some blunt object at him. Maybe Witten can show him what's up.
5. Jason Garrett, offensive coordinator, really is that smart.
6. Zach Thomas is no fool...(That's for you Donoho!)
7. As a general rule, nepotism is one of the worst practices of any organization. Jerry Jones's son works for the Cowboys. Wade Phillips's son works for the Cowboys. Jason Garrett's 2 brothers work for the Cowboys. Cowboys' 2008 Motto - "We promote family values almost as much as we promote family members."
8. Still on the fence about Adam Jones. I'm cautiously optimistic. Although, TO has smoked him several times. Then again, TO smokes everyone.
9. 2009-New Cowboys' Stadium is going to be a good place for America's Team to defend their Super Bowl title.
10. I think Leonard Davis ate an entire camel. The man is large.

The only thing that worries me this season is our team being a little too Hollywood. I have a man crush on Tony Romo

ya i caught a little bit of that show this weekend while we were in our hotel im really rooting for danny amendola even though he went to tech can u tell me if he made it and martellus well he is just used to being babied by franchione and not having to work this program will do wonders for him and then the boys will have a terrible tight-end two-some (sorry for the excessive alliteration and possibly uncalled for hyphens)
