I live in San Antonio now, and they're building a new neighborhood down the street from me called Prescott Farms or Hills or some poo like that.  The street names are all famous Cowboys players.  They've got Aikman Pass, Prescott Way, Staubach Ct...poo like that 

Is that for real?

I lived in McKinney (suburb of Dallas) when I was a kid in the 90s during their peak as a franchise. We moved down there from Maryland where my entire family were Redskins fans.

I did not fit in.

We didn't have wear your favorite sports team day, we had wear your cowboys gear day. They didn't read us children's books, they read us books about Cowboys players when they were children. There were so many kids in the area named after players/the area I knew like 4 kids named Dallas alone. 

I apparently met Roger Staubach at some event while decked out in Redskins gear that my dad put me in on purpose. They wouldn't take a picture with me next to him. 

It's a Cult down there.

Reminds me of my daughters at school here in Philly. They have Phillies Day, Eagles Day, etc. One of mine always wears Panthers and Braves gear on those days. I'm guessing she may buckle and join the crowd later on but for now she "loves" her Daddy's teams. My other girl likes my wife's teams (Eagles/Phillies) so she's out of the will.

I heard about that too

Word is....on Prescott Way, amazon packages will be easily intercepted by porch bandits.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
