I have been a Dallas fan since the days of Randy White, Roger Staubach, Drew Pearson, and others. This makes me sick bringing this guy in. I may have to look for another team to cheer for.

I won't go that far. I have been a Cowboys fan all my life, and still will be. Hopefully this does work out for the best.

I have to agree with ya stripes. I too have liked dallas all my life, but I hope this works out. Now, I never been a huge fan of his. But he is a heck of a ball player. Like UT1 said I take a few more tds then none at all.

My fan days go all the way back to Eddie LeBaron. Tom Landry did have an early version of TO in Thomas Henderson, but TH was more concerned with boasts about team efforts, not individual prowess. I'll keep my fingers crossed, hoping that more attention paid to TO will open more holes for JJ to run through. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I don't got that far back lol. The early 80's for me. Danny White and Tony Dorsett days.

The same for myself. I am also glad to see that they signed Jason Fabini. Although the rookie done a decent job at RT for most of the year, Fabini will add some depth, or if Flozell is not ready by the start of the season.

Im a big Dallas fan and will continue to be, although I believe this is the worse move they could have ever possibly made.

This could be easy , if he runs his mouth and won't produce, put him in a slot and lob the ball across the middle. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I don't look for coach to put up with the "showboat" stuff. If he wants to play on a team , fine- if not hit the want ads.

No, drafting Quincy Carter 17th overall, or making Jimmy Johnson so mad he quit, those are worse moves than this one. This has the potential to be a great move, or only average, and he is gone after a season or two. The reward should out weigh the cost in this situation.

I seem to remember Eddie LeBaron playing for the Redskins. Guess some of us go back quite a ways. I don't like the attitude of TO, but maybe it will help Julius.

Eddie was drafted by the Skins and played for them for 10 years (4 time pro bowl selection). Good things sometimes do come in small packages. Only 5'7", he was an excellent passer and scrambler. He was a real hero also, as he was awarded a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart as a Marine in WWII.
Dallas got him in his 11th year as a pro in 1960. He was Clint Murchinson's first QB if I'm not mistaken.
