In honor of our retired buddy Smitty, I thought we had to have a Cowboy thread for the upcoming season.
This one is going to be a little different since I really don't give a rats ass what their record is or if they make the playoffs. I really don't hate the Cowboys like many of you think. I hate their owner. Therefore, I generally root against them. Hating Jerry Jones is the one thing Capitan and I can agree on in this world. There could be others but I know we agree on that. LOL
In spite of not being a cowboy fan, they have had a lot of players over the years I grew to enjoy watching and respected tremendously. Hence, the nature of this thread is:
Who was your favorite Cowboy of all-time and tell me why.
(Flaming someone elses pick is fair game).
I will start with mine. It is Emmitt Smith. Clearly the most mentally and physically tough Cowboy I ever saw. Who can forget when he played in that Giants game with a separated shoulder. He gained 170 yds that day and lowered that shoulder on one occasion to take Lawrence Taylor head on. Only after the game did we understand how much pain that man played with. I still get chills thinking about it.
Post away...... I await your picks.
