There are four winless teams in the NFL this season, and none of their addresses end in Dallas.
When it comes to the monetary ability to select and sign the finest talent, they are among the League elite.
Perhaps no greater sporting palace rises anywhere on the planet.
There are fewer proud American athletic standards to bear, aided by a loyal fan base among the most rabid in professional sports.
All of which can lead to one inescapable conclusion.
The Dallas Cowboys are the most embarrassing franchise in the NFL.
The impetus for this statement came while I was in a somewhat packed watering hole Sunday, the only place I could view the later afternoon games without having to (A) be forced to watch the pathetic local drivel being shoveled thanks to NFL broadcast rules, and (B) view the games without having to be bound and gagged by the fiscal extortion of buying the entire season via satellite in order to view only the really important and interesting games.
Down the field streaks Miles Austin with the game-winning touchdown in OT against Kansas City, and the previously moribund Dallas fans in attendance celebrated as if the recipient of one free beer at the new Texas Stadium, which in some portions of the Lone Star State is worth the same as six months mortgage.
That’s when I noticed one member of the faithful, wearing Cowboys colors and just another dozen serving of fried pickles away from the next triple-bypass, parade around the establishment screaming not words of praise for his team.
Rather a continuous chorus of “F--- YOU” to anyone within spitting distance, accompanied by both middle fingers raised aloft to punctuate a dance soon to be banned faster than the Lambada.
This beer soaked simpleton, and plenty of his conspirators, were giddy and face-shoving those IQ point fingers celebrating a victory.
Over the then 0-4, and now 0-5, Kansas City Chiefs.
A team 29th in Total Offense. 29th in Total Offense.
Committing two turnovers. Thirteen penalties.
Needing overtime to defeat one of the worst teams in the NFL.
Pathetic.
