Eagles @ Cowboys

http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-p...owboys-Preview

Division title goes to the winner.

I don't want the Cowboys to have a bye, but I DO want them the win this one..

If the Eagles win, they get the bye in addition to the NFC east champ T shirt.

All the Eagles fans I've talked to think the Eagles will lose this one....and I think the Cowboys might stumble......

Maybe they'll tie.

2 years ago, when these two teams met in their last game fo the season, the eagles punished the cowboys physically, causing 2 injuries to the cowboys, which basically costed the cowboys any chance of advancing within the play-offs.

in last years final game between these two, the eagles humiliated the cowboys.

this year shows the eagles to be superior to the cowboys.

however, this new cowboys stadium will be in the spotlight again after this night.
the only way for them to achieve this spotlight, is if the cowboys win this game.

so, there are things of greater value at play here.... its a gimme for the cowboys.

I'll be wearing MB's #5 jersey, while watching the game at our neighborhood hangout and drinking pints of PBC Kenzinger...which means the Iggles will win.

i wish you were right, but there is too much money invested in this stadium to allow it to fade out.
but i'll tell you what....
its is very probable that this cowboys win on sunday will set up another game between the two teams in a wildcard game.
that will be a complete knock-out game in which we will get our revenge for this fixed loss on sunday

For the love of god, Jim...don't bring a child into our bar wearing a Cowgirl's jersey.

The other kids will show no mercy! The dogs will have something to say, too.

I don't get it. They spent the money, and built the stadium. No matter how the Cowboys play, it's going to be in that stadium for awhile, so what's the big deal?

its buisness, its entertainment.
create a huge attraction on the greatest stage.
.....and i'm not saying it now.
i pointed this scenario out at the start of the season, despite the fact that the cowboys are actually under par as a team.
i've got a witnesss for this one.

they have momentum.....they are relatively healthy.......keep rolling....don't stop and get cold. I DON'T want Romo trotting off to Cabo with some whore, or going on Letterman or something, either. stay sharp, focus. WIN.

Yeah, it was mentioned before and I didn't get it then either. Don't the Cowboys sell out at home, regardless of what kind of season they have? Do you think their fans would stay home because they thought the new stadium was a jinx? I have trouble believing that would happen, but you know the game and the teams/fans much better than I ever will.

Bruce, maybe you are thinking like Pburg Pirate ownership. Screwing the taxpayers was supposed to be only the first step in a process not the last.

From watching the Cotton Bowl yesterday, I'd say they have a helluva nice venue there but you still need a culture of winning to keep butts in the seats and draw in the corporate money..

bruce, thats not quite the picture, but you know, honestly, i really hope i'm wrong.
i could care less for my money wagered this week.
i'm 100 percent backing my eagles.
donovan healthy, in a superbowl, with jackson to throw to, and westbrook as a short option, a bye.... possible opponents on the way to the superbowl, the vikings pass defence, or the under par saints defence.
ealges all the way baby.
