Cowboy-less Super Bowl in Tampa

February 1st, 2009; Super Bowll XLIII (43); the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. the Arizona Cardinals.


Hold the phone. The Cowboys really aren't in it? Oh yeah, that's right, somebody should've pinched me.


For the 14th straight year, the hometown team, the Dallas Cowboys aren’t in the big game in late January/first Sunday of February.


Ever since ’95. Seriously? We’re talking about America’s Team for crying out loud. We’re made of much more than that, I mean, we should be.


Because now all there’s left on this team is people who aren’t about the team and all about themselves. The morale here’s shot; players can’t own up to their mistakes and be accountable; the team concept’s just not there.


The team is really in need of a true leader [more than one would really help], or at least somebody that's in the right mindset of where the team needs to be. Not the kind that would try to make a name for himself; most recently rookie TE Martellus Bennett using profanity on a freestyle; fined $22,000.





Things definitely have to get better for next year. So we can be just like the Steelers and Cardinals, partying it up and about to battle for the title.
