We were shouting "Stumpy!" when Coakley picked off his second one. Stumpy got MVP of the game too.

Marino had such a beautiful throwing motion. But a real asshole outside of that.

I remember that opener like it was yesterday.

Went out to Pittsburgh and beat the ever loving shit out of them.

It was so impressive I thought we were "back" and thought we'd be SB contenders that year.

Little did I know I we'd be 7-9 and that this would be our best win of the season.

Looking at theweekly results, I don’t even remember half those games. Self-preservation, I guess.
I remember the Bears and Packers game where Deion had a TD each.

I remember losing to Arizona for the first time in years, but I didn’t remember it being 1997.

Definitely don’t remember a 5-game losing stretch to end the season. And Emmitt only had 4 TDs all year?

A lot of people thought Emmitt was done after the 97 season.

Kinda like Zeke now, most of the Cowboys had simply run him into the ground and he was finished.

But Chan Gailey revived him in 98 and in 99, he had one of the finest seasons of his career.

Gailey may not have been a great coach, but I do think he played a large part in saving Emmitt's career.

This is actually really fricking cool and must've taken a ton of work, but this is a nice collection of Cowboys highlights spanning multiple eras:

 

[NoDak]

Emmett

Unacceptable.

 

[Texas Ace]

Unacceptable.

Fuck.... That's my phone's fault but I'll still take a lap for not seeing it.

There are 3 unforgivable Cowboy fan crimes:

Irving.
Whitten.
And Emmett.

The sad part is, my phone did that as I know better. But it's still on my fucking record now.

Eat dick, Steelers:

Wheels fell off both lines that season. We haven't been the same since maybe that very game
