vmax Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 IRVING – If the Cowboys don't make the playoffs – it's pretty iffy after a devastating 33-24 loss to Baltimore on Saturday night – then Jerry Jones must fire Wade Phillips. Actually, he should've fired him after the game, considering the defense gave up touchdown runs of 77 and 82 yards in the final three minutes. The dilemma for Jones is that offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, the heir apparent, has done absolutely nothing since September to prove he deserves the job. http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dw...or.3fb573e.html Quote
Guest BallTMore Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 (edited) I was so glad when Garrett turned the Ravens down. He\'s a wanna-be. No fire. Nothing. Didn\'t like the guy. Harbaugh is a great fit for this team. This is a great party! I like playing on the road! Edited December 21, 2008 by BallTMore Quote

BMoreHon Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 I was so glad when Garrett turned the Ravens down. He\'s a wanna-be. No fire. Nothing. Didn\'t like the guy. This is from an ESPN article of the recap I thought was hysterical: In addition to the homecoming theme, the Ravens also were motivated by Dallas offensive coordinator Jason Garrett opting to remain with the Cowboys after interviewing to become Baltimore's coach last offseason. "I wonder what team he wishes he was coaching tonight?" Suggs said. Quote
vmax Posted December 21, 2008 Author Posted December 21, 2008 Here's another one madbacker.... It's too bad the Cowboys couldn't figure things out in the final game at Texas Stadium -- especially since Jones apparently petitioned the league for the Cowboys to play the Ravens because it once looked like a winnable game. Jones sort of confirmed that theory to me after the game, but I couldn't tell whether he was joking. It didn't matter to the Ravens. "We had a lot of politics that really made this game more fun," said Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs. "They personally recommended us as their homecoming opponent. We fed off it the whole game. We hope they enjoy their ceremony tonight, but I guess we were the dynamite." http://myespn.go.com/blogs/nfceast/0-6-179...son-s-next.html Quote
STLRaven Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 I hate Jerry Jones. I'm glad there's a huge clusterfuck down in Big D(ouchebag). Quote

BMoreHon Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 I wonder if Bisciotti has a woody from beating Jerry Jones. They showed him giving a thumbs up after Le'Ron's TD..Awesome. Quote
OutsideRzAcE Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 Jones has wayyyy too much influence with the NFL. Theres no way Pacman would have been reinstated by the league once much less twice if he were playing for any other team - and now he has influence on the schedule? I know they would have had a home games against us anyway, but noone should have a say in when you play a certain opponent except the schedule makers. Quote
STLRaven Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 This warmed my heart: Baltimore (10-5) turned Dallas owner Jerry Jones’ hope for a homecoming event into a wake. It was Jones who, according to stories going around the NFL, requested of the league that Baltimore be the visiting team in this game rather than one of the “tougher” teams such as the New York Giants, Philadelphia or Washington. But by the end, Jones was gripped with quiet anger as he watched the final two minutes tick away. So much so that when a friend tried to console him, Jones walked away, preferring to find any spot of solitude in the cavernous home of some of the NFL’s greatest moments and teams. Quote
vmax Posted December 22, 2008 Author Posted December 22, 2008 a ton of fans watched the spanking... The Ravens-Cowboys game was the NFL Network's highest-rated of the season, drawing 9.2 percent of the nation's cable TV audience, the NFL reports. It ranked No. 4 among cable sports programs this year, behind three Monday Night Football games on ESPN and tied with the AL Championship Series Game 7 between the Rays and Red Sox on TBS. http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/sports/med...scowboys_t.html With the exception of the 1st quarter, that was one quiet, unpassionate group of fans in Texass stadium. They don't hold a candle to the the noise level we put on at M&T. It left me wondering "What's the big deal with Texass stadium"?. Quote

Chuck Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 That many people have the NFL Network? Yep, they do. How else can you see all the games anymore? Quote
Keveeno Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 http://myp2p.eu/index.php?part=sports I watched the game in great picture, hd quality Quote
smokeyjon Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 That many people have the NFL Network? Not every carrier tries to bleed their customers for every penny by packaging it as a premium paid tier like Concrap (who the NFL is suing because of it). Quote
deeshopper Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 The NFL actually won the lawsuit. CONcast should have it back on their regular programming. All hail FiOS. Quote

Sounds like I need to make a nasty phone call...unless they blocked it due to blackout rules Saturday night (which doesn't make any sense). Quote
deeshopper Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Are you in Baltimore, smokey? NBC had the game on locally. Quote
smokeyjon Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Are you in Baltimore, smokey? NBC had the game on locally. Yeah, I watched it on NBC...I tried to switch to NFL Network when they dropped the HD feed to do the stupid Lottery drawing in the 4th quarter and I got the "Not Authorized" message. Quote
