  1. Inviting multiple bidders to an auction would be in Dak's economic best interest.

    If you franchise Dak, you run the real risk of losing Cooper (assuming the new CBA gets ratified) who is vital to the offense's productivity. And franchising Dak only postpones the inevitable and makes it more expensive a year from now. But Stephen is just the type of dealmaker to spend $100 in order to save $5.

    I don't hold Dak in as high esteem as Vic or Drew, but you're out of your mind if you think you are replacing his productivity in the draft quickly.

    Unfortunately 30mil is a bottom of the market number that free agent QBs like Bridgwater and Tannehill might bristle at.  The problem is that Stephen sucks at this and has no sense of gamesmanship whatsoever.  He isn't anticipatory in the least bit.  He could've signed Dak last year at this time for 27 to 30 mil and all of us would've screamed and hollered until Goff, Wentz, and Wilson signed for 32, 33, & 35 mil in the following month.  At this point Dak has no reason to sign until the CBA is ironed out, but to answer your question anything over 38mil number would've been that number for me, but the longer Stephen waits that 38mil will look like chump change again next year.  

    100% this. Stephen is absolutely terrible at contract negotiations and managing the team's roster. He managed to goatfuck the entire RB market last year and he actually had leverage in that situation.

    His strategy of waiting out the other side until they accept a below market deal has put the team in a terrible cap situation for 2020. He negotiates through the media because he knows he fucked this up and is in full PR mode. Now he's hoping that the players change their minds and accept his bullshit about the value of being a Cowboy because he's squandered time and his negotiating position.

    Not a miracle but yes a bullet or tase would’ve been much worse. 

    Were both punches justified? If Sgt. American Hero is so concerned about HIV or Hep C (thereby justifying his actions), wouldn't striking the felonious assaulter in the mouth be inadvisable?

    Dumb response by Sheriff. But if you have a bloody apprehended kid spit at an LEO, that’s the response you’ll always get. Does the kid have AIDS?  Hep C?  

    There’s more to this story. 

    Are you saying it's justified because it should be expected for LEOs to react in the worst way possible?

    Anywhere he wanted. He's kind of a big deal.

    I like Dan. He's grown on me over the years but his value to the station overwhelmingly was being a foil for straight laced, uptight Bob. His only other contributions to the show is replaying audio and attention whoring at big events (Super Bowl, Ticketstock). He's not a name his time slot talent.

    It was amazing that neither had any audio of commercials pulled for that segment. I like Corby and Danny both personally but their show is almost an instant punch out these days.

    This. Hyperbole is no substitute for preparation and Corby's sports intelligence doesn't lend itself to winging it. Even the non-sports segments are really suffering from Rhyner's absence. The Stars could play an east coast game 5 days a week and it wouldn't bother me.

    Only one of six players to be a Super Bowl MVP twice or more.

    Bart Starr

    Terry Bradshaw

    Joe Montana

    Ben Rothlisberger

    Tom Brady

    Pretty good company and will be in the HOF.

     

    Ben Rothlisberger was never SB MVP (Ward and Holmes).

    and we’re losing cooper, our best offensive player.

    They're not losing Cooper.

    So, in a hypothetical (and, frankly, unlikely) example in which neither Prescott nor Cooper is signed to a long-term extension by the end of the 2019 season and no new CBA is negotiated by next March, the Cowboys would have the ability to keep both of those players off the open market by designating one a franchise player and the other a transition player.

  9. Uff, 3:00-7:00 just became unlistenable. Say what you will about Mike checking out a few years ago, he was still the glue that held that show together. He still played a valuable role in being the station voice of baseball, music, Dallas history, and the horny sexagenarian with early onset dementia. He made the show tolerable.

    Now, not so much. I like Danny but he's best in his dark cloud role sprinkling the show with his fun facts and stories of his Know City boxing friends. I don't expect the Ticket to carry afternoon drive anymore. They desperately need to find a third man in the booth

    Scorsese has won best director. He’s never won best picture. I don’t think he deserves it for The Irishman, but I bet they give it to him as a lifetime achievement type award. The Academy always does this. 

    The Departed also won Best Motion Picture in 2006. He didn't pick up the statue for producing it but if that's the criteria then he's only been nominated for Wolf of Wall Street and Hugo. He was hardly passed over for those two.
