Dallas Cowboys used to be “America’s Team” in the 90’s. Sunday’s were filled with Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith. The early 2000’s were filled with many disappointment and mistakes, from the infamous Tony Uh-Oh moments to that popcorn tossing maniac Terrell Owens. But in 2009 it seems like the Dallas Cowboy’s have again started to become America’s team. But it certainly does seem like they’re buying our affection. Spending 650 million on a brand new stadium that’s hosts to the largest 1080p HDTV T.V. Only three electricians were electrocuted during installation, but Jerry approves! Over the past couple years the only news from the Cowboys came from their players social lives. You had Tony Uh-Oh dating Jessica Simpson to Pac Man Jones’ late night fun. The team was even showcased on HBO’s Hard Knocks. The Cowboys to me feel like a lot like the Yankees, but without the trophies. Yeah they’re ahead at halftime but their smiles will be short lived. Within weeks the stadium will be empty and the only ones still trying will be the Texas residents, paying for it to sit idly.

“I talked to coach Jauron prior to the start of the workouts about that,” Owens told reporters. “Right now if there’s nothing mandatory that I have to be a part of, then I won’t intend to be there.”

T.O. said he would rather stick to his own routine than go to the Bill’s workouts. This bugs the shit out of me, and the guy wonders why he has such a bad reputation around the league. Sure, a lot of guys don’t go to voluntary workouts, and thats fine. I think it is stupid not to, but whatever. T.O. however, is a completely different story. When you have a terrible reputation like his going to a new team show that you give a shit and just go to the damn workouts.

I love Darren Sproles. I had him on TWO of my fantasy squads and STARTED him nearly all weeks. I made the playoffs in both leagues. He is a relative unknown, but it’s time for the world to meet him. Anyone who even remotely follows the Chargers will tell you that Darren Sproles is the heart and soul of that team. Not Leaf 2.0…errr Philip Rivers. Not LaDainian. It’s Sproles. He catches passes, he returns kicks, he shares the workload with LT. The man can flat out BALL. He’ll be starting somewhere VERY soon. (Maybe San Diego *gasp yes you heard it here first*)

SAN DIEGO (Reuters) – The San Diego Chargers scored a heart-pounding 23-17 overtime victory over the Indianapolis Colts in their AFC wildcard clash on Sunday.

Darren Sproles took a hand-off from quarterback Philip Rivers and scampered 22 yards for the winning touchdown with 8:40 left in overtime. The Chargers’ 75-yard drive was the only possession of overtime.

Sproles became the Chargers’ main running back when LaDainian Tomlinson left the game with a groin injury after scoring a touchdown in the second quarter.

And then, our favorite Holy Roller Kurt Warner has completed the turning back of the clock, advancing the Cardinals to the next round of the playoffs. How pissed off is Matt Leinart? Eh, not much, he is laying more pipe than a plumber with a journeyman’s card.

PHOENIX (Reuters) – Veteran quarterback Kurt Warner threw two touchdown passes before orchestrating an Arizona Cardinals fightback and a gripping 30-24 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in their NFC wildcard playoff on Saturday.

NFC West champions Arizona raced into an early 14-3 lead but trailed 17-14 at halftime before taking control with 14 unanswered points in the third quarter.

Despite having lost four of their last six games in the regular season, Arizona held off Atlanta’s much-vaunted rushing offense with running back Edgerrin James outgaining Michael Turner, the league’s number two rusher.

Competing in their first playoff game at home in 61 years in front of a highly charged, capacity crowd at the University of Phoenix Stadium, the Cardinals outscored the Falcons by four touchdowns to three.

“I hope this gives us a lot of confidence,” a beaming Warner told reporters after completing 19 of 32 passes for 271 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.

“I knew we believed we could win this game. I hope we can parlay this into some more confidence and believe we can go wherever we have to go and win.”

The Cardinals will next meet either the New York Giants or the Carolina Panthers away next weekend.

“In the playoffs, you’ve gotta go on the road and you’ve gotta win wherever they put you,” said the 37-year-old Warner, back in the Pro Bowl for the first time since the 2001 season.

It looks like Plaxico wasn’t the only one mixing it up and partying last Friday night. According to reports, former Bill Wide Reciever Eric Moulds was hanging out with current Bill WR Josh Reed Friday night. Some other websites are claming that the soldier just wanted an autograph from Moulds, and Moulds got angry and socked the guy. Details are sketchy, and there are conflicting reports, but make no mistake…..Eric Moulds bites.
