Domes are the stupidest thing in football. Not so much in hot weather cities but cold.

Dallas turned up the heat in the dome - to simulate the "hot" weather. I hate when a team uses their stadium (not fans) to try and give them an advantage.

I agree 100 percent.

I was about to say it wasn't that old. I use to listen to it when I was a kid. But when I think about it, I realized I'm old.

[H8R]

Hey CHEEKS! One great thing about the Cowboys. Those cheerleaders are SOLID!

[PuRock]

I love Rocky Road was actually released in 1983 making it 27 years old.

It's official I feel dated.

The goonies came out in 1985

The Dallas theme song, REALY?

Wow, another dominating performance by the cowboys?

Are the Eagles not studying game footage?

Yeah. I'm right there with you.

[Chi_Town_Raven]

Aren't the Cowboys only in the East because of some deal that they'd play the Cards for some amount of seasons somewhere? Something like that, I think, lol.

Extreme heat. I guess in Sept it isn't that bad. But Preseason games you could get guys dropping dead from heat exhaustion.

So domes are stupid every except Mexico & Canada.

Well I mean personally I dont like domes at all, teams like the Saints are all I think of when I hear the word "dome", and the beat down they took in Chicago because they arent used to playing in real weather and cant move around.

I don't know but I've always found it weird that Dallas is in the east. Philly, NY and Washington are close together then you throw in Dallas?

Dallas should be in the south division, or west. But east?

I seriously think they should make a standard for how much cover your stadium get. Just enough to cover your fans from the rain and snow, but don't alter the game.

I was thinking about divisions today. And my question is, why the hell are the two Ohio teams in the same division?

New York teams are in different conferences. Florida teams are in different divisions. California teams different conferences & divisions. Texas different conferences. Pennsylvania different conferences.

So why did the NFL let both Ohio teams battle it out in the same division?

[quote]The division was formed in 1967 as the National Football League Capitol Division, keeping with the theme of having all of the league's divisions starting with the letter "C." The division was so named because it was centered around the capital of the United States, Washington, DC. In 1967 and 1969 the teams in the NFL Capitol Division were Dallas, Philadelphia, Washington and the expansion New Orleans Saints. The New York Giants replaced the Saints in 1968; the Giants took the place of the Saints permanently with the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, which led to the division's current name. With the merger, it also added the St. Louis Cardinals from the old Century Division. Despite relocating to Arizona in 1988, the Cardinals continued to play in the NFC East until the 2002 re-alignment when they were moved to the NFC West.
Although the St. Louis Rams are geographically farther east than Dallas, the Cowboys remained in the NFC East and the Rams stayed in the NFC West because of long-standing rivalries: the Cowboys with all three other teams in the East (especially the Cowboys–Redskins rivalry), and the Rams with the San Francisco 49ers in the West.

Both of these games are starting to suck again today.

Yeah, I can understand not putting all Florida or California teams into one division/conference. But my beef is just stick to the correct geographical area.

For example the NFC North is a good geographic distribution of teams.

I know. When the Ravens aren't playing, I usually become a casual fan, and am looking for a close game.

Yeah, like I think the Pats belong in the North more than the Ravens. When you think about it, they should be in the East, because they are really close to Virginia.

[MagicianCamille]

Like I said, dominated last week, dominating again today.

Eagles are just overrated and we're seeing it today.

[Chi_Town_Raven]

....... ugh@!

[Shawn`]

Dallas 24 Philly 7.

It's one thing to lose 3 close games to the same team. But to be blown out 3 times, 2 in a row? C'mon man.

[Chi_Town_Raven]

I think being blown out is better. Then you can't look back. Then you can just state that you suck.
