Down To The Last 9 Seconds


It was another edge of your seat game from the comfort of home television watching the Cowboys vs. New York Giants 17-21! And, no, I am not planning taking out a loan for season tickets to the Cowboys game when the new stadium opens in Arlington, Tx. Ask Jerry Jones if someone fell off the turnip truck when he planned his ticket prices? We had the home field advantage with 60,000+ fans cheering in Texas Stadium, but I guess we could not pull it off this year. We really do have a good team with an amazing quarterback Tony Romo; Marion Barber, who can run like an ox and manuever like a hermit crab through the line of scrimmage; Jason Witten; Greg Ellis; Terrell Owens; and many more that without one could not make it happen. I really do not know that much about football, but I know a little more than I did last season. I know that it is good to root for a 3rd down conversion, and I know that a hand-to-face mask with twist action is a 15 yard penalty. There is still a lot I do not know about football like all of the stats. That is okay though. I can still go out and purchase a $74 team player jersey and do the touchdown dance, if I want to. It is what we call teamwork. It is a game...a delicate balance of the players toes, hands and feet, down to the last 9 seconds of 4th quarter. It is life, what you make of it. Live it. See ya next season.
