That was certainly not the close superbowl everybody wanted with the exception of Seahawk fans. I thought a good defense would beat a good offense but I didn't think a good defense would obliterate a good offense like Seattle did to Denver.
This season had some good moments but the most predictable moments were generated by the Dallas Cowboys who once again finished 8 and 8 largely in part of incompetent coaching. Of course every Cowboy fan points their finger at the owner Jerry Jones but if they want any change for the better to come about the fans must point the finger at themselves. We have all seen this story before. An owner who mistakenly thinks he is a good G.M. makes bad draft picks and hires coaches no one wants will obviously put out a team that will be average at best. If the fans know this why do they continually pay way too much money to see the Cowboys play or watch them on their TV every Sunday afternoon. The myth going around is now that as long as Jerry Jones is the owner the Cowboys will never be a superbowl contender. The fans have the answer and it is easy to apply. Just ignore the Cowboys. As long as Jerry Jones keeps deciding on who to draft and lets the incompetent and boring Jason Garrett coach his team, fans should stop buying tickets and turn the television to another football game, a soccer game, or even an episode of "Downton Abbey". Jerry Jones hates being ignored and losing money and if he sees this happening it will wake him up to the fact that he has turned a once dominant football team into the butt of a joke and maybe then he will hire another GM and get a football coach like Bill Cowher who actually know what their doing. I suggest fans start now and move on to the Mavericks and Rangers which are currently much better run organizations than the Cowboys.
Personal note:
It hurt to mention the Mavericks and Rangers because I learned today that a friend of mine Andrew Densmore who was a big Ranger and Mavericks fan passed away of leukemia at the age of 31. Andrew was a former teammate on one of my indoor soccer teams and a true friend. The obituary in the Dallas News described very well the person and father that Andrew was. The team I played with him on for two years called "The Weekenders" was the team that I had the most fun playing on. We won many more games than we lost but beyond that, thanks in part to Andrew, I rediscovered my passion for playing soccer.
I'm very grateful to you Andrew for being the man that you were and am extremely fortunate that our paths crossed. Rest in peace bro!
