Tom Landry was a class act. Dandy Don didn't exactly exude class, but he was a straight-shooter. Class and forthrightness - have we seen that with these guys? Great point Curtis.

Name the players on this team who would be starting on Offense or Defense, for any other 7-5 team in the league - those are the ones to keep, after jettisoning all the others. Then take the choice remaining few and either keep them or trade up for a decent roster to suit your system. Many of these team associates (I won't call them players) are too comfortable in their jobs, much like a lot of the rest of the Washington workforce. Many are out there in front of the media (like other politicians) granting "not me" style interviews in order to solidify their tenure. Enough of the crap - the bling & silk pocket squares, the occasional one game brilliance - Sonny, Sam, Chris, Art, Darrell and Charley, and whole lot of others played every down of every game, without excuses! I'm so tired of hearing about it taking time to learn a new system - rocket science, this ain't! Most of these team associates having been at this since PeeWee league, or about 20 to 30 years. What would you consider the IQ level to be of a 25 year Electrician, who you still had to tell: "the black wire is the hot, the white wire is the neutral". Give me a break! It's football, for god's sake! Blocking, tackling, running and catching the ball are fundamental, and these people don't know the fundamentals, or, in my opinion, are skating. I don't believe that one could remain a "team associate" for over 20 years, without being required to learn the game - do you?
