Hogs Haven Chats with Cowboys' blog, Blogging The Boys

David Halprin, who is the lead blogger for the Cowboys' SB Nation website, Blogging the Boys, and I had a brief gmail chat talking about the big game.
We talked about what their 2 major injuries mean (Colombo and Hamlin), why they refuse to run the ball, and if the DAL/WAS rivalry is still big in DAL (it's not). I tried throwing in some jabs to rile him up, but he didn't bite:
Kevin: What are your thoughts this Sunday? You have a lot of big injuries. Lets start with Doug Free replacing RT Marc Columbo...is he going to be able to handle [Andre Carter]? He's never started a game before
David: That's the question we all want answered. We've had Free for a few years now but never had the need to start him. Now we do. Free actually played well against the Packers and wasn't one of the problems our offense had in Green Bay. He's got great athleticism and did well in pass protection, we'll just have to see how he measures up this week.
Kevin: Did Witten have to stay in more to help pass block? That would help the Skins out a lot.
David: Not at all, Free was left on his own for most of the game in pass protection and only had a few bad plays in that area. They would probably use a different TE (Bennett or Phillips) or one of the backs if they give him help.
Kevin: What about Hamlin's replacement? I know he's one of the verbal leaders on that D.
David: That's a tough one, Alan Ball will replace him, he was originally a cornerback but he worked at safety most of training camp this season. He's not the biggest guy and not having Hamlin QB'ing the secondary will hurt some. Our safety play has improved a lot this season, but without Hamlin it's a little worrying.
Kevin: What's to worry about? Santana Moss never does any damage in Big D!
David: ha
Kevin: Flozell and Kosier going to be OK or gimpy? Haynesworth was still in a boot yesterday but expected to play.
David: I don't expect any problems with Flozell or Kosier, unless you've heard something I haven't?
Kevin: DallasNews.com said they're nursing ankle sprains but should play. Gurode made any comments about Haynesworth this week? I can't imagine he's looking forward to dealing with him again
David: I don't think Gurode has any problem going against Haynesworth, the reason he stomped his head in the first place is because Gurode was getting the better of him. Gurode kind of let that incident pass really quickly, he never said too much about it after it was over.
Kevin: So Dallas has a 2nd best 5.1 yards per carry in the NFL but a 24th ranked rushing attempts...any reason the Cowboys keep abandoning the run?
David: Over the years, OC Jason Garrett sometimes falls in love with the pass. If the run games breaks down even a little bit, or if the Cowboys are moving the ball through the air, he has no problem continuing airing it out. Sometimes it's the flow of the game, like in Green Bay, where the offense just wasn't clicking and they got desperate to pass. It's a constant subject of contention in Dallas and was brought up a lot this week. It's hard to diagnose, but my personal feeling is that Garrett, a former QB, loves to put the ball in the air.
Kevin: how much do you guys miss Roy WIlliams the Safety? I know us Redskins fans miss him dearly there.
David: Gerald Sensabaugh has been a great addition. He's athletic enough to cover TE's and even WR's occasionally, but is tough enough to stick his nose into the running game. He's shown good instincts for finding the ball and making a play. We're thrilled with his performance so far.
Kevin: wow. Cowboys are -13 faves. what's your prediction?
David: I think that's a ridiculous line, considering it's a rivalry game in the NFC East. I do think that Dallas will come out on top, but I would guess more like a FG or TD separation, not 13 points.
Kevin: actually, the line has moved to -11
David: It's getting closer
Kevin: when do you think the Cowboys will win a playoff game? ha
David: really, that's the best you got?
Kevin: I don't need to say anything, when December comes, Romo's play will do all my talking for me I've always questioned if Wade Phillips' head set is even plugged in...he seems to have no clue what's going on.
David: well this is veering off track...anyway, can we do my questions for you tomorrow, i got no more time right now
(several hours later...)
Kevin: The DAL/WAS rivalry is still as big as ever in DC. It's all people talk about the week before and the week after, and there is a hatred there for Dallas fans. Does Dallas still have that reciprocal passion against Washington? Is there a big buildup in D anytime you guys face us?
David: The Dal/Was rivalry is not as big in Dallas anymore. I don't think there is that reciprocal hatred for the Redskins like there was before. Don't get me wrong, we still hate the Skins, but it's not the same for us anymore. It seems like the Eagles are the team the Cowboys fanbase really gets up for now. That's where the real passionate hatred is directed. So no, it's not at all like what you're seeing on your end.
Kevin: it doesn't help when the Skins have had a decade of mediocrity
David: I think that's part of the problem, but for whatever reason, probably becasue they've been winning big over the last decade, the Eagles win the most-hated NFC opponent on polls I run on my blog, with the Giants usually second
I answered about a dozen of his questions, so I'll post a link to that when it comes up.
Another key to the game for the Skins. STARTING STRONG:
The Redskins have been outscored 59-17 in the 1st quarter and 120-50 in the 1st half of games this year.

when our rivals fans don’t reciprocate what we feel. Cowboys, Cavs, Penguins… its really kinda sad when you start to dwell on it. Can we just win something already?

In the past few years the Giants are definitely my most hated
part of that is living NY, another part of it is watching them be good, and overrated (IMO)

Yeah
I don’t like the Giants, but they just don’t get my blood boiling like the Iggles or the Cowgirls.
The Dallas fans will start to hate us more after this weekend, when we have resumed our dominance of that despicable franchise. I think that the Cowgirls fans are just too involved in their own drama and media circus to worry about rivalries. A narcissistic bunch, they are.

The feeling is mutual..
but we’re learning to hold our tongue midway through the season when we havent won anything yet.. obviously we could trade jabs back and forth but we wouldnt really get anywhere and would have no new insight to this week, so it’s kind of pointless. For instance, we could say your head coach doesn’t do anything, and you would reply “neither does yours.” we would get a nice laugh yes, but how does that help us for this game?

I hate the Cowboys
No question about it. But I also really hate the Eagles, maybe even more than Dallas. I am sure that if Dallas had won a playoff game since I was a sophomore in college I would feel differently. Plus the ’Skins are what, 5-5 against them in the last 10 meetings?

The parallels between our teams
is actually quite amazing and easily attributed to the like personalities of the owners. Both men want to win at any cost except to do the one thing that would allow them success – give up control. Its really quite mind boggling if you give it a minute or two of thought. Just starting with authoritarian organizations filled with compliant yes-men for starters. Not to wax philosophical, but both owners provide a very real example of the classic existential nightmare about desire. Jean Paul Sartre is laughing in his grave.
Also, if they want to win so badly, they should seriously take up Buddhism to get to the point where they come to the understanding that sometimes you have to give up something to realize a greater gain. Sorry if I waxed idiotic with the above. I’ll try to tone it down from here on out.

and if Jerry Jones ever decides to single out another owner for praise
it is invariably Snyder…
whenever he talks about wanting to win and stuff he references Snyder
is he doing this to justify himself I wonder

So this post got me thinking.....
Now the skins fan base is much more localized and a lot more personal. Most of us acquired our love for the burgundy and gold from our families and friends. We were taught how to be skins fan from day one which included running the ball, loving the Hogs, and above all hating Dallas. Most Skins fan are massively devoted to there team which you pretty much have to be when cheering for a team like this.
Dallas fans are nothing like us which I believe fuels the rivalry for us even more. For the most part there the bandwagon type. Ethier from the troy aikmen era or the current Romo one. Don’t get me wrong Dallas has a lot of true fans but the fakes one will always outnumber them when dallas is winning.
So a poll saying that we are there least hated team in the NFC doesn’t really mean anything to me. It just means that the fake Dallas fans who don’t even understand who there teams is actually supposed to despise outnumber the real ones.

Is that if you poll the other 2 NFC East teams (NYG and PHI)…they hate Dallas the most too.
Jerry Jones prob has a lot to do w/ that.

Leave it to
Jerrah and Snydo to screw things up so much that even the rivalry aspect of our two teams is diminished. A blight upon all, these two.

I bring this story up on occasion
I used to work on a project in Dallas-Fort Worth. When I would fly in, I would wear my Darrell Green jersey. I would wear it around town and I would wear it to bars. The reaction I got from MOST people is no indication that they don’t care. I think Cowgirls’ fans very much respect the rivalry. It was funny…one guy came up to me and said he rooted for two teams: the Cowgirls and whoever was playing the Redskins. I had a similar tee-shirt growing up.
Cowgirls fans are easily distracted (hence the gigantic screen at their new stadium). They forget very easily that which is most sacred. The rivalry has decades of history behind it. Hating the Eagles is great and all, but that doesn’t mean the rivalry is non-existent. I think that they think they are “cool” if they say the rivalry doesn’t matter to them. Instead, it makes them look shallow and weak.

what a whiny b*tch
thanks to the dude for taking the time to be interviewed by you and everything
but please
literally ‘sooking’ (Aussie vernacular generally used to describe a toddler who has been told they cant have a lollipop) as soon as you try some ‘very gentle’ ribbing about the playoff failures of the Cowboys, and suddenly ’being too busy" to do this now and having to call back later was a real weakass attitude typical of the Cowboys franchise
props to you Kevin for having the discipline not to call him out about to his face

Interviewer is very unprofessional
I am a Cowboys Fan and read Blogging The Boys on a daily basis. Every week before the game, I read the questions with the other teams top bloggers. If you all do that also, you will see that these guys are all very professional with their answers and most are actually better writers than the people that are paid to do it for a living. Well, this week after reading your guy KevinE’s questions to Dave Halprin, I was very disappointed in the way he asked his questions. How old is he? 12? Questions like how much do you guys miss Roy Williams? And when do you think you will win a playoff game? Those are not questions that have anything to do with this weeks game and are very unprofessional to ask. And also his typing is full of typo’s and incorrect grammer. If he is the best you have to represent your site, then I am sorry for you. Read the Eagles, Giants, and Cowboys blogging sites and see what I mean. Good Luck this weekend. Should be a great game.

Did you see my interviews with real media and ex-players? David is a friend of mine and it was a very loose conversation. When i am doing a gmail IM chat, I am not concerned about grammar or conducting an interview with all the same boring, predictable questions.

This is a blog
There are no established guidelines for “professionalism” that pertain to blogs of which I am aware. If you know of some, please share, so we can all kow-tow to the rules.
People who manage and participate in blogs are not working as professional journalists and should never be held to those standards. They are entertainers who provide a forum for ideas and opinions. Having said that, I believe this is one of the better managed blogs out there. The writing is above average and the tone and appropriateness of the participants is several cuts above the normal jerks and inflamers who have nothing unique or informative to contribute to the to the topic at hand.

I am from WNY. Been a Cowboys fan for 32 years. I have no problems with anyone being a fan of any team as long as they are passionate about their team and not bandwagon fans. I have LOVED the Redskin-Cowboys rival. I still think it is the best one in the NFL. I can’t wait for the game Sunday. I will probably hyperventilate. Glad it is a 1:00 start. Wouldn’t be able to make it through the day if it wasn’t.

Ok, good, glad to hear it!
Because I think a lot of the problem with the Redskins-Cowboys rivalry nowadays, and the reason why “it’s not that big of deal” to a lot of Cowboy fans is because a lot of those fans are bandwagon fans that are under 30 and grew up during the 90’s when Dallas was awesome and the Skins pretty much sucked for the most part, aside from the 92 Superbowl. So all they know is Dallas dominating a lot of teams, and for the most part, the Redskins. Espeically in the early 2000’s when we were terrible and the Eagles were really good. So, they turned there hatred toward the Eagles. Now, I think it has started to come back a little since we have beaten you guys several times in the last 4 or 5 years and it’s become more of an even matchup.

LMAO@the HAWGZ...
YEAH, we know that you hate us…It just wouldnt be right if you didnt…Instead of admitting that youve gotten beaten down by the BOYZ so many times that we forget to even circle you guys on the calendar, you guys use your hate to blind you about the facts:
Which are as follows:
1).Your chances of MAKING the playoffs every year is about like the chances a whore has of entering Heaven….
2). Being the perennial bottom feeders that you guys have been for almost the last 10 years(which if I would have been Dave Halprin, when asked the question of when we are going to win a playoff game, I would have countered with"Whens the next time you guys will even qualify for the Playoffs?)…whats the bottom of the basement smell like down there?…LMAO
3). Is your Coach going to be talking behind that silly clip-board all the time?…Doesnt he know that his DC is actually calling the plays for him?…and Does he know that the NWACC is looking for someone of his coaching caliber to take over play calling of their womens knitting team?…LMAO
4). How about that Haynesworth steal you guys picked up in FAs this year…Is he lighting up the Offenses like you thought he would, or is he the crybaby pussy that everybody else in the NFL knows him to be…
Now Im sure there are other facts that i have missed(Oh yeah, the most important fact of all)you guys havent got a winning record in the NFC-East like the rest of the teams..what are you like 2-7 or 3-6…yeah thought so…Instead of football players I think you clowns should turn in your cleats for dishrags, pushbrooms, and dust mops seeing as your going to be on your hands and knees at the basement level…LMAO
Ive always said that self-flattery only convinced one person they were any good at all…But I dont think you guys could flatter yourselves enough to make a real difference in the way the BOYZ feel about you…Your just a step on the ladder to our success, and when it comes time to step on you, we have always done that…and we will continue to do that…and there really isnt anything you can do about it at all…You are pretty pathetic as a team if all youve got to say or ask is"When are we going to win a PO game?"…well, when are you guys going to win another SB…I mean its been what 17-18 years since youve won one?…when are you guys going to get back into the playoffs as contenders…?…Just thought id ask is all…

His facts are way off...
Skins went to the playoffs 2 years ago with a 9-7 record.
Steve Spurrier set this franchise back miserable. As for Haynesworth, he’s been 100% worth the money so far and the fact that the 2 defensive ends are on pace for 12+ sacks each prove it.
As for making the playoffs, what’s the point of making them if you can’t get past the first round ever? Skins and Cowboys are both struggling in that department.

I disagree
and I’m not just a hater or a Matt Mosley blow hard.. You still give up 125 rush yards a game. Plus he has 2 more tackles and 1 less sack than Jay Ratliff who obviously makes way less money. I’m not saying Haynesworth hasn’t been good, but I don’t really think he was worth all that money, and definitely not 100% worth it.

lol i know what you mean
and believe me I was never real big on the RW deal, even if he turns out mildly productive, but that’s another story. You’re right it’s not your money, but you still have to judge him based on the contract. Like with RW, had Jerry been able to bring him in without giving up so much, then he’d be just another guy in the pack (which he really has been anyway).

hes worth having so therefore worth the cost
but I don’t really think he was worth all that money, and definitely not 100% worth it.
My point is, we had a desperate need there, and to get Haynesworth that is what it was going to cost, its not like if we offerd 40mil less he would have come, he would have just gone and got close to 100 mil elsewhere, therefore he was worth it IMHO
plus remember the 100mil is not what he will get, that is just a figure to let the Agent get more clients the real number is the 47mil guaranteed, Haynesworth will get no where near the 100mil

yet another
delusional Cowgal fan.
Your chances of MAKING the playoffs every year is about like the chances a whore has of entering Heaven…
I believe we’ve made the playoffs about as much as them in recent years. Unless of course he’s talking playoff PREDICTIONS, where most of the Cowboy fans get their goose up. Sure, Dallas is PREDICTED to make the playoffs every year. What they should predict is whether or not they’re gonna win a playoff game before Jerry Jones’ face dissolves.
3). Is your Coach going to be talking behind that silly clip-board all the time?
As opposed to their coach looking like he lost his Mommy on the sidelines every week. Sure Zorn looks clueless at times, but Wade Philips invented the look.
How about that Haynesworth steal you guys picked up in FAs this year…Is he lighting up the Offenses like you thought he would,
Uh…..YeAH.
Your just a step on the ladder to our success,
Too bad success in November means SQUAT!!
and when it comes time to step on you, we have always done that…
except for 5 out of the last 8 match ups.
and finally, the most telling of all
…well, when are you guys going to win another SB…I mean its been what 17-18 years since youve won one?…when are you guys going to get back into the playoffs as contenders…?…Just thought id ask is all…
18 years. Not that much different than 13 years in NFL time. Both are long gone. Of course, I know the Cowbum fans don’t like to talk about their ineptitude come playoff time. Why would they? That team is all glam, and all SHAM. You guys keep stacking up those 9-7, 10-6, 11-5 season, only to be sitting on the couch after (or BEFORE) one game come playoff time.
Funny, I saw a picture the other day of Kimbo Slice wearing a Cowboys jersey. How fitting is THAT??

Fell free...
To put it up on your locker room bulletin board CarverM…I find it full of insight, and the freedom to express our opinions in a free society without fear of repercussions is the fundamentals of our Constitution…As far as the capitalization of our teams nick-name is concerned, and the impact it has on my statements is negligent, compared to the impact your loss is going to have on the future of your team…But then when it comes to the Hawgz, whats another loosing season, more or less…LMAO…
tmarine17…A typical bandwagon fan doesnt usually go into another rival teams blog site and make the inflammatory(sp?) remarks I made…a bandwagon fan rarely knows any more than that there team is winning, and could usually care less what the History of the team is …The only thing I have to say to your comments is that 1)..we at least dont have to WAIT until December for you guys to collapse…you guys are a busted nut from the start…We have a good possibility of making the PO this year, whereas your pathetic team hasnt a prayer left…We have at least made the PO several times since we won our Super Bowl(s)…How many times have you gone since your last win…*winks….
Now, as for the “ramblings of a teenage kid”…that is indeed a very funny comment coming from someone who has used the derogatory terms(cowgirls, little"g" in fact)…I would say that you either didnt have to much to say, or you realized your hate had blinded you to soon, before you opened your pie-hole…other wise you would have realized the idiocy of your statements…

LMAO@FreeFall...
Now that is funny Scott E…thats coming from a perrenial losing team…You guys only wish you had the momentum to make the climb…but when your never very far up the mountain to begin with, you never do have very far to fall do you?…*wink…
tmarine17, now, now little girl, if you werent reading my posts youd probably have gone and done something else by now…but seeing as your still here, it is my firm belief that you are hanging on every word that i write…Its not always we get to have our own way, and since you guys seemed to want to do some ribbing, I thought i would give you the chance…
If its any consolation to you guys, i give it to all of our rival teams…You can go to Bleeding Green Nation, and BBR, and read my post there…I ALWAYS get a rise out of their fans…they are so fun to give hell to…So far the only ones who have given me any grief(they banned me after my first blog~pouts~)…sore loosers!!!…But if you really want me to, I will go back to BTB, and just leave you clowns alone…I will certainly get to enjoy the rest of the season over there …and I can celebrate our being alone at the top of the NFC-East…

LMAO@KevinE...
So far Haynesworth has been worth 100% of the money?…guess you could say "thats as far as he goes, eh?…Oh the “unfairness” of it all…Reckon them 2 DE are going to do very much without him?…LMAO…$100 million dollars worth of player sitting on the bench…and your team is what now…3-6, and at the bottom of the heap in the NFC-East?…DAMMIT iks certainly the word Id use also…only, Id spell it right Ill betcha…LMAO…

It's obvious you haven't watched any of the Redskins games
As for being “100% worth the money so far”…most of the Skins free agents are worth 0% of the money so far…..Archuleta, Brandon Llyod, etc…so Hanyesworth has been a welcome addition.
Of course he’ll need to keep it up for 3 years to validate the signing bonus.

as opposed to
Roy Williams. Cuz he’s DEFINITELY worth what you guys paid for him.

Cowboys fan here
just thought you should know I could care less about you guys. In fact I’m not sure why I even stopped by to say this. Later.

Clearly
I think it’s pretty obvious that you don’t care about us. If you did, you probably would have created an account on HH, searched for a post on HH that was related to your team, scrolled down that post after reading most, if not all of the comments, and decided to post a comment on that post about how you don’t care about us.
But clearly you didn’t do that so it’s obvious you don’t like us and so we’ll all crawl into the fetal position and suck our thumbs crying about why quincyyyyy doesn’t care about us. I’m pretty sure I can speak for everyone here on HH in saying that our number one goal in life is to have you care about and to like us.

Wow...
Checking quincyyyy’s member account, he was banned from the Broncos blog and has had about 20 comments deleted from the Cowboys site.

Fellow C-boys fan here and have come across quincyyy a few times..
He’s been a solid contributor to the site from what I have seen I was just wondering how funny it would be for someone to get banned from their own team’s site. I wonder what it would take?
"I’m ready to go here, all right? It’s like R. Kelly at recess."

That reminds me……who was that coke snorting QB you guys had a little before Romo????

We are...
57-37-2 all time against you clowns, which if you ask any other fan base around the League, they would tell you that youve pretty well been owned by the BOYZ…C’mon, admit it, you guys have no real belief that you can beat us in Dallas do you?…I mean get real peeps, your O-line sucks, your QB is mediocre at best, and your run defense is 24th in the league…Your season is OVER!!!, and you have no one to blame, except your silly assed Owner, who pays out the nose for a player who gives very little in terms of the huge contract he signed(Haynesworth being worth $100 million is ridiculous and you guys know it)…Wether Roy Williams will pan out, well lets just wait and see…Hes had 2 very good games against 2 very potent defenses, so your only hope is that you can shut down our passing offense, and to do that you got to play off the line, and our running game is going to destroy you…
But like quincccy sid i really dont care what you guys have to say, and you can pat yourselves on the back for all the times youve made the playoffs, but I would dissagree that 13 years for us, and 17-18 years for you is a lot longer between wins…Most math minded people would say about the same thing…As for that clown saying that JJ is over-spending, hes got a lot of room to talk considering for $22 million less we got a much much better linebacker than Haynesworth, and he isnt the cowardly type that have to sucker-punch another person when that person is taking him to school…I hope he doesnt play the Cowboys on Sunday, because he just might end up getting payback from one of the Dallas hotheads, that remember his stupid little pussy action against Gurode…JMO…but I wouldnt turn my back if I were him…
Now as for your sitting home and watching the PO and TV every year, that has been about common place for you…just another loosing season for you guys, and whats another one of them, more or less right?…Is the Bingo Czar still calling up the numbers?…If I were you guys, Id go back and try and get Joe Gibbs to coach you guys…Oh, wait youve already tried that also…Maybe Spurrier will give you guys another go, how would that do you?…The only thing you had going for you was Jim Zorns ability to call the plays that beat us last year, and now youve castrated him also…wonder what he feels like, knowing he aint got no balls?…LMAO…
Finally, just for your benefit, I have refrained from using derogatory terms for your team(foreskins, piglets, hoggies, and deadskins, to name just a few)…and I have for the most part used profanity when I felt it most due…I have not at any times used any expletives(ie FUCK THE FORESKINS, or BUTCHER THE HAWGZ)..nor attempted to misuse or abuse my privelege as a blogger…by saying “kiss my ass”, nor “suck my dick” as you guys have…I attempted to let you clowns know that we consider you beneath us THIS YEAR…and being 3 games behind us and just 1 win from all but saying good bye to your season…pretty much sums up all I have to say…I will wish you luck on Sunday, and hope on Monday I dont have to come in here and say i told you so, cause you know I am most definitely going to say just that…I mean I cant help it…I am just that kinda guy…what can I say?…

LOL
I attempted to let you clowns know that we consider you beneath us THIS YEAR…and being 3 games behind us and just 1 win from all but saying good bye to your season…pretty much sums up all I have to say…
Except that it takes you so long to say it in such a poor way. I’d point out the irony of you spending so much time trolling a site of a fandom you consider “beneath you,” but I know that it would be lost on you. I’d explain the concept of irony, but I’m going out tonight and I’m certainly not going to take time out of my enjoyable life on the wasted effort of attempting to enrich yours. Loudmouths are like guys who drive ostentatious, over-the-top cars. You know, compensating types. Have a lovely evening in your parent’s basement, Hater.

You are just this kinda guy....Nice Post..... Very Classy
When I was a SS for my High School team, and I didnt get to take the HomeComing Queen to the Ball, I didnt whine, cause I knew who took her cherry before her escort led her out to his car(smiling like the cat who ate the canary)…What Im trying to say is that we are still sitting on top of the NFC-East, and even though we got beat by the CheeseDicks, we know who the better team is cause we watched them play a sorry team like TampaBay and get beat…We really shouldnt whine, cause we knew it was likely to happen…
The question isnt can we beat the Hawgz, now, the question is are we going to beat the Hawgz…We should have beaten the CheeseDicks, but instead we had a let down…Again I will bring up the HomeComingQueen analogy…If you got to bust her cherry, how hard can it be to bust MissTipOffs cherry?…What I mean is we beat a very good Philly team IN FILTHY, we had better not have problems with Washington, right?…

I hope that anyone reading the post above knows that it is a comment that I brought over from BTB ( the Cowboys fan site ) written by their little sociopath Hawgz, Bugs & FilthyFowlHater. It looks like even the cowboy fans can’t stand him.
