I'll be in the air for much of the afternoon, but I wanted to give you a taste of what folks were saying in Dallas and Philly this morning. And I'd be remiss if I didn't publicly thank Keith from the New York Giants' Internet operation for rescuing Tommy Curran of NBC Sports.com and me the other night in the Meadowlands. He was our last hope as we waited for a taxi outside Giants Stadium at 1 a.m. ET. OK, here are today's headlines:
Cowboys
- Jacques Taylor pays tribute to Jason Garrett. This sadistic man (with the baby face) was still calling for passes late in the third quarter against the hapless Browns' defense.
- A story from Dallas about Cowboys fans watching the game on TV. Hmmm...
- Randy Galloway talks about one of the most dominating offensive performances he can recall. And what a great quote from Patrick Crayton:
"[Romo] was surveying the field like he was at the beach, picking out honeys," Crayton said. "And he had plenty of time to look."
- It was a pleasure sitting next to Clark Judge of CBS Sportsline.com at the game. He and I flew out of New York's La Guardia Airport together just as Hurricane Hanna hit, which was quite a bonding experience. I also bonded with NBA rookie J.J. Hicks on the flight.
Eagles
- I love the fact that Les Bowen got bored with yesterday's game and started live-blogging. The Eagletarian is a must-read for Eagles fans.
- Reading the word "crunked" in a Phil Sheridan column gives me such pleasure. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it spelled "krunk?" Before I bang out a column on deadline, I often hear myself saying, "Let's get Krunk." Is that appropriate use the of the word?
- Bob Ford makes it back from Beijing in time to cover the first Eagles game of the season. And he talks about Lito Sheppard's quick wardrobe change.
