I think its more assholish to the audience than anyone. The players and coaches are pros, they’re used to that stuff …

Cowboys’ head coach Wade Phillips, guesting on a sports-talk radio show this week, said it pissed him off too & he hoped the league made some kind of rule change this off-season to prevent it. So it ain’t just us.

I’m as diehard a Cowboys fan as anybody else, but he also said that, while it remained legal, he’d do it, too.

(How’s the new stadium looking?)

(Bump.)

Yup, Phillips tried it this week against the 'Skins, but screwed up the timing. :smack:

Shanahan did it last night against the Titans, and gave the kicker a re-do on a missed kick. :cool:

And the new stadium is looking … enormous. (I live about a mile and a half from the site–it dominates the skyline. And you can see the damn thing from the DFW airport’s south entrance, easily ten miles away. :eek: )
