your defense reminds me of the Saints defense the year they won the SB, you can get yards and points on them, but they cause so many turnovers that it more than makes up for it. You guys just have a complete team, I don't think anyone on the team is playing "great", but everyone is playing well, you just don't have any serious flaws.

Did you ever see my earlier question to you? Post 153? The one regarding Emmitt?

hi joe!

my bad, I missed it

I have a somewhat distant cousin, his father (Richmond Flowers) played for the Cowboys and NY Giants in the late 60's, early 70's, and then he (my cousin) went to training camp with Dallas around 2001, during the glorious Dave Campo regime, they both met Emmitt a ton of times, my cousin was even on the team during training camp with Emmitt, so he told me Emmitt was a huge a-hole, wouldn't help rookies, heck wouldn't even talk to them., so anyway, they pulled some strings and I got to caddie for Jay Novachek at a golf outing in Dallas once, Smith was playing in the tournament too, and by "tournament" I mean Saint Judes, there was no money involved. So Emmitt hits a ball way right and some kid, I mean like 9 or 10 who is just a spectator asked Emmitt for his autograph and Emmitt just blew the f up at the kid and was like "hell no, i'm in the middle of a game!", and then bished about being asked for an autograph for the next 10 minutes, he actually won't autograph anything for anyone unless money is involved,  I met him at team hotel in Philly once too, and he was just a total **** to any and everyone....he is a miserable F.

This is why I have absolutely no interest in meeting any player I've ever admired or cheer for, or will admire/cheer for in the future ever...I'd rather not know what they're like as people. they're just human shaped figures doing cool things on TV that make me go 'F ya'....that's enough for me.

Lot of these running backs are divas. I know someone that works around Shady a lot and he is the same exact way.

the nicest guy I ever met was Julius Peppers, I met him on the sideline of an Eagles game during warmups in 2008 at a preseason game. My son was 12 at the time and he was there with me, we was trying to get players attention during warmups, and most ignored him, some gave a wave, all understandable, they were getting ready for a game, I even told him to quit because hey, these guys are trying to get ready to work, so anyway, he knocked it off, and about 5 minutes later Peppers just walks over and starts chatting with my son, he seriously stood there for a good 3-4 minutes, asked him about school..sports and stuff.
