If you wake up one morning and find your wife has ran off with another man, or she tells you in advance that she is running off with another man, what's the difference?? She is still a winch.
The only reason Bud Adams didn't leave Houston overnight is because he couldn't due to his contractual obligations to the Astrodome.
So if the Cowboys moved to Boise Idaho and became the Idaho Potato Heads you would have no ill feelings towards your former team or Jerry Jones? (assuming you would not be one of those morons that would still support a team that turns its back on its fanbase)

"Morons" is a nice way to put it...

Actually, it's the opposite. We can dig up the news stories, but Lanier caved and Bud still moved the team.
Besides, ONE MAN owns the team. A mayor cannot force a team to move. That decision was made by ONE MAN. If Slug wanted to stay, he sure had a strange way of showing, but I'm not buying it for a minute when documented history is on the side that shows his greedy intentions.

It's the
smack forum, Gary. The talk you're looking for will be in the forum called The National Football League. This particular forum requires thick reptilian skin.
