Good Luck Dallas, You Have No QB

[thermo]

Just in from the wires. Dallas released QB Tony Banks. Looks like its " In Quincy we trust". Not like Banks was any good, actually he sucked. His pro career is most likely over now.

 

[WODIN]

Ohhh like that would make a hell of alot of difference in their game. LOL!!

What happened to banks?

 

[thermo]

Banks just sucks, he flat out didn't make the team, and was cut.

Yes, Seattle signed Dilfer to back up Hasslebeck. The funny thing is he caught a one year deal for a cool mil. Which is about double what there starting quarterback is making. Don't be suprised to see him take the team over early to mid season.

I'm actually happy to see Carter in over Banks. Carter is unproven, but Banks has proven he can't get it done. It should be a long year in Dallas.

 

[WODIN]

Very long year indeed.

Emmitt is easily one of the most durable backs in NFL history. He has ony missed 2 games with injury since '95.

 

[PsychoSkitz]

dgreen,

What the hell are you talking about?

 

[Thick dog]

He has only missed 2 games period since '95. Are you sure your not thinking of Michael Irvin? I've never heard of anything shady associated with Emmitt...

 

[Checkmatebloated]

Not sure where Dgreenhill is coming from on the E. Smith deal. The guy plays with pain. He does not ride the pine.

It was going to be a long year of pain for us Dallas fans anyway. Our GM has no football know how other than spending money.

 

[Big Buck]

I remember when Emmitt played w/ a seperated shoulder a few years back, and still had over 100yds rushing.....

 

[Natymike]

Dgreen, I don't see how you can say he's injury prone when he's about to break the All time rushing record. I don't think those 2 go together.

As for Dallas, thats the first smart move I've heard from them. I expected them to let Banks lose the first 4 or 5 games before they released him. Carter is better, but he's the equivalent of Akili Smith.

 

[Thick dog]

Dgreen, that site wouldn't come up. What did he get busted for?

 

[Gilbyag]

Im not look'n forward to watching dallas play this yr... lots & lots of Notre Dame, UT games in my future this yr. Not like I missed them anyway...

Bucs & Greenbay... yea.... thats it......

 

[Natymike]

Thank you for this opening. You guys are funny. I never said he was injury prone. But anyway I can do this one.

Well, Charles Barkley is one of the all time scorers and rebounders. Was he injury prone? Why isn't he playing anymore? Lets see he had at least 5 operations on his both knees.

Pete Sampras set the all time record for Slams-was he injury prone? I couldn't even address how many times he has puked or pulled out of events.

So like Emmitt is triing to proove after last years concussion-longetivety is the thing that counts.

I really don't see what you did with my "opening" but Barkley isn't playing anymore because he's old. Thats usually what happens when players retire. Yea he had a season ending injury, but that doesn't lable him injury prone after 20 seasons.

 

[Thick dog]

Not quite sure where Charles Barkley or Pete Sampras fit into the equation, but back to Emmitt Smith. He did suffer a lot of nagging injuries, but he played through them, very rarely letting them hamper his production, which is a testament to his durability.

 

[Thick dog]

Is he really recovering from eye-surgery? I haven't been following the Cowboys too much this preseason, except for the Tony Banks saga. I hope he will be ready to go for the season...He needs a little over 1,500 yards, I think he'll do it early next year, depending on health.

 

[madbomber31]

ah, the cowgirls are in full effect...

madbomber's life will be complete if the eagles win the superbowl and the cowlickers finish 0-16

 

[madbomber31]

i am sad to see that banks wont be setting any fumble records... if only he could have had a LITTLE talent.

 

[Thick dog]

I'm telling you Quincy Carter is an upgrade. Of course, Calista Flockhart would have been an upgrade too...

 

[madbomber31]

i actually agree, yet never even saw carter play in college...

i've seen far too much tony banks... i have some awesome fumble memories of him... standing there, not being touched and dropping the ball... or on his roll out and bouncing it off his knee... god, the beauty of it all.

dave kreig is cursing the football gods now, he will keep his all time fumbles record with banks gone.

 

[Thick dog]

Yeah, Banks should hold that record, I think he holds the single season record. Banks deserves a record like that. Dave Kreig was a solid QB. Rmember when he brushed off Derrick Thomas, who was going for his record 8th sack of the game, to throw the game winning TD as time expired? I believe that was in like '90 or '91.

 

[donutglazer]

Thick dog,

Mr. kreg played for the Chiefs-thats where he racked up most of his fumbles.

 

[Thick dog]

Yeah, Kreig went to the Cheifs after the Seahawks. He spent most of the 80's with Seattle. He was a fumbling machine...
