If Richard Justice has sex with Vince Young in the forest, would anyone hear it?

Well, whenever that happens...
I know Jerry, Kraft, etc., would have cut Kris Brown after the MNF game and had a new kicker in here (for all the other missed FGs Kris Brown had after that game). We've only seen progress this year, as far as record goes, and still no playoffs. Kubiak would have been fired if he had been under Jones or Kraft. But, we're the boy scout, good boy team, so none of that will ever happen.
I saw the movie! it's called "Antichrist"... DON'T SEE IT!
Thanks very much my TT friends are the best.
I didn't give any thought to your comment about JJ or the comparison. There is simply too much value that you add to this board to give a second thought to a comment that I could disagree.
Personally, I lilke Jerry Jones. I don't think he's perfect, thank goodness, and he has made some decisions that angered me, and to a lesser extent, I disagreed. However, I do feel that Jerry is probably more a fan of the Dallas Cowboys than anyone, and wants above all the bottom line profits, a very successful francise as a winner. With that in mind, I can overlook what appears to be meddling and see it as a sincere and passionate desire for the team to be among if not the best in the league. IMO, Jerry sees this organization as more than a profitable investment.

Celebrating the Deion signing is the perfect example of why you're a Cowboy fan and I'm not, anymore. As is typical with Cowboy fans, you don't take rejection well. Regarding your point about supporting the players: what players are contributing to the team that were their before Jerry Jones was? none! The only constant is the owner! Heck, even the city has changed. You used to play in that dump in Irving. Now, you play in Arlington. If you are like most Cowboy fans, you loved Terrell Owens and defended is honor for 3 years. As a 49er and an Eagle, you hated the man and thought him a despicable human being. I can't justify that kind of leap. And, to be a Cowboy fan, you spend most of your life having to justify all kinds of crap like that.
Exactly.Well, sure. It's the point I made several pages ago. As much as Jerry Jones is the biggest buffon in the NFL, I respect him because he really, really loves his team and his city and wants them to win. Unfortunately he usually makes the wrong decisions, but, at the end of the day, I think his heart is in the right place. I respect that.
Bob McNair loves the Texans as well, and he also loves Houston, but, Bob doesn't have that killer attitude that Jerry Jones has.
At least not yet.
you are criticizing the Deion signing by Jones? omfg, that was a great move and was extremely critical to Jones getting his 3rd trophy. Deion is one of, if not the best, cover corner in the history of the NFL. Add in his special teams ability and any owner who can sign him is good in my book.
is it because Deion is too black for you? is it because Deion is too good of a player or too confident? Deion is a helluva football player and has never gotten in trouble with the law or been a bad teammate.
I only wish our owner, McNair, could sign and lure a player of the caliber of Deion to come to our team. To act like you hate Jones because he would bring in a player like Deion is just crazy.

After reading some of the comments...I think some folks are only Texans season ticket holders because:
A- They live in Houston and don't want to move to the same city as their fav team
B- They can't think of anything else to do with their money
C- Don't want to spend the money to become season ticket holders and travel to their real fav team
It is just very interesting to me.....off to work on my pfufa application.

Jerry Jones has proven to be a better owner than McNair. How can anyone argue that? It took him a while to find a QB (and some would say he is still looking for one) but the guy has presided over 3 championships and has done everything to help his team win.
His worst move was trading for Galloway. That was a horrible move, and no one should let him off the hook for that, but what else has he done that has been so bad. You could argue that he ran Jimmy Johnson out of town, but I think Jimmy was done anyway as Cowboys head coach. He wanted a new challenge with more power. He got that wish and failed at Miami.
McNair has given Carr maximum extension and wanted to draft a QB to begin with. Horrible move to go with a rookie QB #1 overall in your first draft. Just ignorant. Hired Casserley to run his football operations. He has also made little to no extra effort to improve his team to be championship caliber. Signing Antonio Smith, Weaver, and Greenwood aren't championship moves.
and for all the haters on Jerry, guess where most of his players came from? Yup, the draft. And guess who is in charge of the draft in Big D? Jerry is. So maybe he aint so bad after all. Some of you act like you know more than Jerry does about football...that is laughable. Jerry is actually one of the longest tenured GMs in all football if not the longest tenured.
I Am not saying McNair sucks, but Justice is just calling a spade a spade. McNair has had opportunities to greatly improve the team, and he has not done it. Haynesworth, Michael Turner, and Kris Jenkins have all been available at positions of need and we dont even make a run at them. We decide to roll with what we got. That sure has worked out well for us, huh?
at the end of the day, Jerry has 3 trophies, runs the most valuable sports franchise in America, and we are a losing football franchise who have some fans that act like 9-7 is some validation of McNair's plan while in the same breath criticize the Cowboys for not winning playoff games. Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. expansion team or not, there is no argument that McNair is a better owner. it just doesn't hold water.
I love my Texans but the Texans aren't in the same class as the Cowboys...yet. Maybe we should focus more on our real rivals, Justice. Like the Titans. ThIs make believe fairy tale Texans-Cowboys rivalry is a total joke...its not a rivalry. It's an inferiority complex by many of the Texans fans..not a rivalry.

Agreed. I thought Justice was pretty spot on. I've always hated the Cowboys and always will, but Jerry has a much stronger passion for winning than Mcnair does. The Cowboys have been much more successful the last 5 years than the Texans have been as well and I won't even count the first few years of expansion. Most of our fans are stoked to be 9-7 even though is was a very disappointing season where we should have been in the playoffs. Until the majority of Texans fans demand more from our team and the team's management or the HC staff and team delivers and over achieves instead of under achieves, the Cowboys will be the bigger hit in Texas. As of right now they are. Hopefully that changes starting next season.

I don't think most fans are "stoked" to be 9-7. Sure it was a nice feeling after the Pats game. It is what it is in the SHORT history of our Houston Texans, a franchise not even a decade old but moving in the right direction.
It's disappointing they didn't get in the playoffs nonetheless they accomplished things this year that they never did before: a QB tops in passing yards, WR tops in receiving yards, a TE who was tops in receiving before a season-ender, a Defensive ROY, a defense that shot up to about 13 in rank, least dropped passes in the NFL...and first winning season ever.
It points well to the future. These Texans may have dropped or missed some balls this year...but no one can deny they they still worked hard all year except the Jets game.
And the Cowboys...eh, they're simply an opponent on the Texans schedule next season.
The Dallas Cowboys of now are rooted to what Bill Parcells' administration started in 2003. They've been a steady enough ship since late 2006. And that's the year that Gary Kubiak took over an absolute train wreck, and in his 4th season, finally accomplished a winning season...with loads of hope for the near future.
There's no reason to throw our improving Texans under the bus on account of some glamor franchise that's been around for a half century.

I'm tired of the "Gary is a nice guy" bullshit. Yes, he is. But it's time for him to stop being coddled and time for some accountablity.
Why wasn't I informed about this?where was this parade you speak of?

Geeeezzzz! Can't all our closet Cowboy fans go away for just ONE day?? Let us diehard Texans revel in their loss!! It's OUR RIGHT ya know. This is a TEXAN MESSAGE BOARD!!!![]()
you are better than that SheTexan. to revel in another team's demise when your own team is irrelevant and wasn't in the picture to begin with is kinda wack. to each his own but I was pulling for the Pokes, its a Texas thing with me though. I root for all things Texan except maybe the Spurs but I am not going to revel in their defeat.
he is either A. trying to show that he is cool cause he has an Iphone.

You are massively understating what occurred this season. This team waaaaay underachieved.
I agree with you that, of course, the team is headed in the right direction, and that we have made baby steps every year. But at some point, the training wheels have to come off and the kid has to ride the bike by himself. When are we going to stop accepting this middle-of-the-road performance and start demanding excellence?
For some strange reason, a lot of fans think it's ok that it's taking Gary four or five years to do what it takes a lot of coaches three or four years to do (or, in the case of Rex Ryan, about nine monts).
Kubiak BARELY deserves a fifth year, and people are clamouring for him to get an extension, even though he has not earned it. We were talking about the Dallas Cowboys. Guess what? Wade Phillips took his team into the second round of the playoffs, and Jerry Jones STILL HAS NOT AGREED TO EXTEND HIM. (At least not tonight. He may tomorrow).
Everyone is saying, "Gary needs an extension because it'll be a distraction for the players next year if he doesn't get one."
So? Make him, and the players, sweat it out next year. Somehow, the Cowboys were able to eek out enough energy to get to playoffs while their coach was hanging in the wind. If the Texans players love him SO much, they will play for him and get him that extension.
I agree with what Tex and a few others have said: Throwing a parade for a 9-7 record is kind of weak.
I'm tired of the "Gary is a nice guy" bullshit. Yes, he is. But it's time for him to stop being coddled and time for some accountablity.
