We are a shade over three weeks away from the start of Dallas Cowboys training camp in Oxnard, California on July 25th, and Cowboys Nation is giddy with anticipation. There isn’t much to write about in the news cycle regarding the Cowboys or any other team, but the media always seems to find a way to …
If you had told me at the beginning of the offseason that a former Cowboys wide receiver would take to Twitter/X to criticize Dallas’ current top wide receiver, I’d probably laugh you out of the room.

Most of us celebrated the 4th of July with fireworks, BBQ, and alcoholic beverages. Personally, I spent half the day with my wife getting our first tattoos. I had a great first experience. My first ink session lasted just a couple of hours and the pain was minimal. I’m hooked after just one tattoo and already …

A recent report from a Twitter/X user has Cowboys Nation up in arms at the prospect of yet another difficult contract negotiation. Why can’t these things just be handled promptly and efficiently like so many other teams in the league are capable of doing? Every year it’s the same story with the Dallas Cowboys. They wait …
Every fan has that one player that they just love to watch play. For most, that player plays for their favorite team, but for others sometimes they don’t have to play for their favorite team. For example, I am one of those fans who can root for individual players to have success without bringing into question …
The NFL league year started back on March 13th. The NFL Draft and OTAs (Organized Team Activities) have passed us by, as have some minicamps for all teams. We are now in the deepest lull of the offseason, waiting for training camps to start across the league but not until late July. For the Dallas Cowboys, …
In each of my past few articles, I’ve mentioned how we are in the quietest part of the offseason. The period between OTAs (Organized Team Activities) and training camp is frustrating to get through as a football fan. During this time, players and coaches are enjoying their final few weeks of offseason freedom before hitching the …
The lull of the offseason has become deafening and major media networks have no idea how to get viewership besides slandering anything and everything that is the Dallas Cowboys. Instead of focusing on players rewarded with new contracts, they have to make their segment about how the Dallas Cowboys haven’t extended QB Dak Prescott or WR …
The Dallas Cowboys and coaches are enjoying some time off in between OTAs (Organized Team Activities) and the start of training camp in Oxnard, California on July 23rd.

I woke up this Sunday morning having dreamt that I was fired from my job with no explanation at all. This is a job that I’ve had for the past 17+ years so it came as a shock. Luckily it was just a dream, but I still have this sense of worry in my gut for …

At this point in the NFL offseason, there are many unanswered questions. Most of these questions can only be answered by time, but many of us use speculation to get us through these dry months. That speculation can come in many forms, and I’ve even participated in it myself. It could be player rankings, projected starting …
What most writers won’t tell you is that this part of the NFL offseason is the toughest part of the year for us. News is slow aside from clickbait and wild scenarios to pass the time. When I get a sense of writer’s block, I like to take to social media and see what people are …
Up until the mid-1990s and early 2000s, the Dallas Cowboys were one of those teams where you could count the franchise’s head coaches on one hand. At the time, the only coaches to ever coach the team were the legendary Tom Landry and the fiery Jimmy Johnson. After 34 years of only two head coaches, Johnson’s …
The Cowboys’ linebacker position was scrutinized last season for being one of the weakest position groups on the team. When I was growing up, I was always fascinated by the linebacker position in the NFL. My favorite video game was Madden 2005. It was the first year the hit stick was implemented in gameplay. That feature …

One week ago, Cowboys Nation was rocked by some unexpected news. Larry Allen, former All-Pro turned Hall of Famer and one of the greatest linemen in not only Cowboys’ history, but NFL history died suddenly while on vacation with his family in Mexico.
