This one's for GRRM. . .



Last time we spoke, George R. R. Martin told me that my demise was now planned and he was going to write it soon. To ascertain that I get butchered adequately, this little video chronicling the Dallas Cowboys' three Super Bowl wins in four years goes out to him. That should do the trick!;-)

Let me also take this opportunity to send it out -- with much love -- to all those hated divisional rival fans of the Eagles, the Redskins, and of course the Giants. Last but not least, if you are a San Francisco 49ers fan (like Blake Charlton), this should bring back memories of one of the best rivalries the NFC has ever seen!

Reading Jeff Pearlman's Boys Will Be Boys (Canada, USA, Europe) made me want to relive several great moments of the Dallas Dynasty. Looking at various videos, I stumbled upon this clip of the CBS theme song; the only good thing about the CBS telecast.

NFL football: Just might be the very best sport in the world!

Hey Blake,

I'll let that pass, as it is the only positive footage you could possible show. I was of a mind to post a clip of how we embarassed you, dragging your asses all over the mud in that first NFC championship game in SF, with Rice crying like a petulant little brat. But I reckon you don't kick a guy who's already down!;-)

No matter how hard it's been being a Cowboys fan, I do realize that rooting for the Niners hasn't been a great experience in the last decade or so...

Try being a 49ers fan living in Dallas! Now that's some fun.

Best sport in the world?!? Ha! You haven't seen a great game of Aussie Rules then ;-P

Ah and I see Anonymous is of the same mind. Seriously, check out one of the great contests of recent years - no pussy padding for Aussie Rules players!

Also, the clip has a brilliant song by Modest Mouse - perfect combo.

Yes but you know he will write it, then rewrite it, then split it into two, rewrite the first part meaning the second part will need a rewrite as well....... etc etc
