Schaub SUCKS, Kaepernick isn’t much better (6/15 passing as of this writing).

Can’t wait to see which 8th string QB OAK throws out there tonight...

I picked SD, so that loss would make me
10-3 with one to go.

I pick Bears to win on THUR.

Re:

Well, it was a tough loss and I'm not the only one... drinking their sorrows away--

Just cannot believe Tony... threw that pick!

Aye, Bendy! Yet I am presently fortified enough to believe our Boys will not lose another game... they are, after all, Scotland's Team, too! Right, Sean?

They are, Scotty... And they are the Bahamas' Team, also.

Bendy, tying me up, skipping your brain surgery... and drinking up a storm will not help and my staff backs me up on this--

Really, Doc? You expect us to stop the poker game... to help you trash the Cowboys?

I should have really know better than to hire... any Man for my staff!

Do you hate everything... Man invented including the Cowboys?

No, I really like... woMEN!

The good news for the Cowboys is that games against AFC teams don’t matter all that much. What matters is the Division and NFC Games, this game coming up against Washington is an absolute MUST WIN for them. At least so far they are unbeaten in those games.

Mattingly to NYY, Girardi to CHI?

Cowboys Wrangled, Again
The unfortunate ballad of Tony Romo continues. Plus, the rest of the worthy news from Week 5.
By Bill Barnwell on October 7, 2013

If you think Tony Romo cost Dallas that game yesterday, you're a fool.

Gadzooks, Romo Hater don't want to hear that, Runny... cause the truth hurts—

a little defense would have won it

A decent defense often makes a quarterback brilliant. Romo has not had such luxury in recent years.

Re: A decent defense often makes a quarterback brilliant. Romo has not had such luxury in recent years.

The closest anyone could come to say that Romo single-handedly lost a game was when they played the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Wild Card playoff round on January 6, 2007, when he botched the snap on the field goal that would have won the game.

Yet, say had the defense not allowed the Seahags to score 21 points... wouldn't the Cowboys would have won?

Pryor has potential, the potential to be Michael Vick, but that’s not nothing. Matt Flynn gets cut again. Remember that great game he had for Green Bay, he set some records there while Rodgers sat on the bench? He’ll probably never start another game. LOL.

Schaub is gonna get his coach canned. Not a great day for Kaepernick, but he didn’t need one.

Uribe probably secured Mattingly’s job. Cubs will outbid the Yankees if Girardi wants to wait to hear their offer.

another loss for me cuz I had ATL, so I finish the week at:

10-4

again, going with CHI on THUR.
I knew the Jets were for real, but they are not that real, so it must be that the Falcos are for real bad.

Pryor looked good, although it was against SD.

Yes, I remember the game where Flynn lit up “Da Pawts”. He’s pretty much done as a starter. I can see him bouncing around like a David Carr type as a 2nd/3rd stringer for another couple years though; the quality of NFL QB’s is truly feast or famine.

Schaub/Kubiak/HOU front office: GONE.

“Uribe probably secured Mattingly’s job.” Maybe. But after the job Mattingly has done, it’s a slap that the LAD haven’t picked up his contract option before the playoffs.

I see managerial musical chairs between LAD/NYY/CHI and maybe WAS, which has some of the best pure talent in MLB. CIN won’t spend the money to get a “name” and SEA blows - frigging Eric Wedge walked out on them. ‘Nuff said.

Girardi will wait to make a choice; why wouldn’t he? His price will only go up.

Meanwhile the Cubs have talked to some other people including Manny Acta, yuck. .418 winning %.

Acta represents the MLB-required AA interview.
