According to Grok:

No, the chondral tissue graft surgery that Trevon Diggs underwent in January 2025 is not the same as microfracture surgery. While both procedures address cartilage damage in the knee, they are distinct:
  • Chondral tissue graft surgery (which Diggs had) involves transplanting bone and cartilage, often from a donor or another part of the patient's body, to repair damaged cartilage and restore joint function. It’s typically used for more significant cartilage defects and aims to replace the damaged area with healthy tissue.
  • Microfracture surgery involves drilling small holes into the bone beneath the damaged cartilage to stimulate the growth of new cartilage-like tissue by releasing bone marrow cells. It’s less invasive but often produces fibrocartilage, which is less durable than the hyaline cartilage restored by a graft.
Diggs’ procedure was specifically described as a chondral tissue graft, indicating a more complex repair than microfracture, likely due to the extent of his cartilage damage following his 2023 ACL injury.

If they were going to cut him why wouldn't they do it already? You don't literally have to wait til June 1.

Also, according to Over the Cap we currently have about 32m in cap space. We don't remotely need to make cap moves right now.

If he sucks that's one thing. If it's a money move that's retarded.

Probably just engagement farming by "DannyPhantom."

Random thought, but everyone knows how close the Diggs brothers are, and with the dumbass WR getting caught on tape giving out drugs you have to wonder where both of them are mentally.

There's probably something to those rumors that our Diggs half-assed his rehab, so unless the guy is back to a Pro Bowl level this year I think you have to get rid of him in 2026 in favor of extending Bland.

Absolutely. I think the team’s collective head is still spinning at how far Diggs has fallen as a playmaker. Right now even this stubborn leadership have to be questioning their wisdom in re-signing Diggs.

So I'm bored, and Grok is like my best friend these days, so I asked it....

Why do I like the Dallas Cowboys so much? I'm not from or live in Texas. I've never even been to Texas.

Your passion for the Dallas Cowboys, despite having no direct connection to Texas, likely stems from a mix of psychological, cultural, and personal factors. The Cowboys are one of the most iconic and successful franchises in NFL history, which can draw fans from anywhere. Here are some reasons why you might feel such a strong attachment:
  1. Cultural Presence and Media Exposure: The Cowboys are often called "America's Team," a nickname coined in the late 1970s due to their widespread popularity and consistent success. Their games are frequently televised nationally, and their brand—complete with the iconic star logo—is everywhere, from merchandise to pop culture. This visibility can make them an easy team to latch onto, even from afar. Their larger-than-life image might resonate with you as a symbol of excellence or tradition.
  2. Historical Success and Charisma: The Cowboys have a storied history with five Super Bowl wins (last in 1995) and a legacy of larger-than-life players and coaches like Roger Staubach, Emmitt Smith, or Tom Landry. Their flair for dramatic moments—like game-winning drives or big playoff games—can create emotional hooks that pull in fans. You might be drawn to their history of grit, glamour, or clutch performances.
  3. Bandwagon Effect or Family/Friend Influence: Sometimes, fandom starts through social connections. Maybe a family member, friend, or someone influential in your life was a Cowboys fan, and their enthusiasm rubbed off on you. Alternatively, the Cowboys’ massive fanbase can create a sense of belonging, even if you’re not in Texas. Joining a widely supported team can feel like being part of a big, passionate community.
  4. Personal Connection to Players or Moments: You might have latched onto a specific player, era, or game that sparked your fandom. For example, watching a thrilling Cowboys game, like one of Tony Romo’s comeback drives or Dak Prescott’s early breakout moments, could have left a lasting impression. If you’ve mentioned liking figures like Boozeman or Jerry Jones in past chats, maybe the team’s colorful personalities or off-field drama (like Jones’ bold management style) add to the appeal.
  5. Psychological Appeal of Fandom: Liking a team, especially one as prominent as the Cowboys, can fulfill emotional needs. Fandom offers a sense of identity, belonging, and even escapism. The Cowboys’ mix of highs (big wins) and lows (recent playoff disappointments) might keep you invested through the emotional rollercoaster, as you hope for that next big moment. Their polarizing nature—loved by many, hated by others—might also make rooting for them feel like a bold, personal statement.
  6. Aesthetic or Symbolic Draw: Sometimes, it’s as simple as loving the team’s colors, logo, or vibe. The silver and blue, the star, or even the cheerleaders might have caught your eye early on. Or maybe the Cowboys represent something to you—like resilience, ambition, or underdog spirit (despite their fame).
Since you’ve never been to Texas, your fandom likely grew through media, memorable games, or social influences rather than geographic ties. If you can share what first got you into the Cowboys—like a specific player, game, or moment—I could dig deeper into why it resonates so strongly. For now, it sounds like the Cowboys’ larger-than-life identity and emotional pull have made them your team, no matter where you are. What’s the earliest Cowboys memory you can recall that hooked you?

My mommy liked the Cowboys when I was growing up.

That’s a big piece of the puzzle! Your mom’s love for the Cowboys likely planted the seed for your fandom. Growing up, kids often adopt their parents’ passions, especially when it comes to sports, because it’s a shared emotional experience—cheering together, watching games, or even just hearing her excitement about the team. The Cowboys’ larger-than-life aura, with their star logo and “America’s Team” vibe, probably made it easy for that spark to catch. Her influence might’ve tied the team to feelings of comfort, connection, or nostalgia, which can make your attachment feel deeper than just liking a team.

Do you remember any specific moments, like watching a game with her or a player she loved, that made the Cowboys stick with you? That could help pinpoint why they’re your team now.






I think she wanted to fuck Roger Staubach.

Haha, that’s a spicy take! Sounds like your mom’s crush on Roger Staubach might’ve been the spark that lit your Cowboys fandom. Staubach, the Hall of Fame quarterback and Cowboys legend, was a heartthrob for plenty of fans in the ‘70s with his all-American charm, clutch plays, and “Captain America” vibe. If she was swooning over him while cheering for Dallas, it’s no wonder you caught the bug growing up—those kinds of passionate vibes are contagious! Watching her light up for Staubach’s game-winning drives or that iconic star logo probably made the Cowboys feel like part of the family.

Any specific memories of her talking about Staubach or you two watching games together that sealed the deal for you? That could explain why the Cowboys still have your heart.

She looks a million times better to me just natural like that. The makeup looks horrendous.

Girls today ruin themselves with makeup.
No doubt but that’s the going thing. Slather your face with makeup and change your whole look.
There’s a girl on TikTok or who used to be on TikTok… I mean, I swear to God I don’t even know how it’s the same person. She goes from absolutely homely and looking 20 years older than she is to pretty damn smoking hot. And she shows everybody how she puts her makeup on.
