We all bought the hype that comes with the Cowboys

I honestly do not know where to start, so I'll start with the obvious. This team is bad. This team is really, really bad. This is the worst Cowboys team I've ever watched. What's worst than that is, they're embarrassing. It's the way they lose and how they act and what they say in defeat.

This isn't a team without talent. This isn't a team without a good share of coaching pedigree. This isn't a team who's trying to get over the hump. They have a recent history of piling up wins. Yet, this team plays like a bunch of losers. They show less emotion than a bunch of kids playing an organized football game in the park. It's pathetic.

It doesn't feel good when you're devoid of players and you're expected to win only a few games and as you watch the season sure enough that's the way it plays out. It sucks, but at least there's hope of turning it around. You can watch and hope for progress. It's worst when you have a team that's suppose to rival an All-Pro team and is expected by many to be the first team to play a Super Bowl in your own backyard and through 7 games, you've won one game.

So many expectations, so many "Stars" with so many Pro Bowls(like that means anything). So many weapons on offense with such a great offensive mind to use them. A team with the highest payroll and the best stadium in all the world. Fact is, Pro Bowls don't mean anything at all. Nothing. As far as the stars, the Cowboys have 4 stars on this team. Romo, Witten, Ware, and Ratliff. There's a bunch of really good players and even more players who think they're really good. That's a huge problem.

Of course 9 times out of 10, anything to do with the Cowboys gets over-hyped. The media on every national station dedicates a large majority of their time to the Cowboys. Because they have the biggest, widest fan base in football. Fans will tune in and generally only stay tuned in if they hear things they like. I do that. I don't want to hear some talking head on TV blasting my team. So if there's something remotely positive, they'll find it and they'll sell it. And that's sticks with both a fan of an another team who's objective and a Cowboys fan who doesn't necessarily keep tabs on the team. 

Of course, in a situation like this, everybody is going to jump all over the Cowboys because Cowboys fans have tuned out for the year and the haters are foaming at the mouth to hear about the Cowboys' demise.

I don't see too much hope other than imploding this team and starting over. The problem with that is the players have adopted a certain mentality. The culture isn't right. And that's not an easy change. It's not as easy as releasing players, unless you release them all. That's not happening. So you need to change the mindset of a locker room full of grown men.

Good luck with that.
