My football
My football in the living room did deflate 2-3 days after I turned off the heat.

This is all a publicity stunt to get more eyes to watch the Super Bowl. NOBODY is talking about the Seahawks,they're off the radar. Marshawn Lynch appreciates it. If on media day,they ask Lynch about "Deflategate/Ballghazi," he should reply,"thanks for asking." "Do you think that the Patriots are cheaters?""Thanks for asking." "Can you tell if a ball is underinflated?""Thanks for asking."
This is the thing that pisses me off more than ANYTHING!! During the Belichick/Brady era the Patriots have never disrespected an opposing player or team through the press, but yet it happens to them constantly and they are always the ones labeled classless by the haters.In fact, the Patriots could be 12-2 going into any given game and their opponent 2-12, but if you listened to Belichick the Patriots are playing the '85 Bears. This scenario has happened a lot in this era.
The Cowboys were just as hated during the Landry era too. He was considered an emotionless robot. You'd be surprised how many people cheered every time "America's Team" lost a game.Tom Landry was an innovator in his time,especially when he lost major players to retirement & had a record 12 rookies on his roster that same season. Jimbo,who was that Cowboy running back with the humongous thighs? The Cowboys had no name running backs,including "Big Thighs" & Steelers cast-off Preston Pearson. He re-introduced the Shotgun formation,which they had to work the bugs out of,such as NOT having the center snap the ball over Staubach' s head. They gave the Steelers a game in the Super Bowl & only Lynn Swann kept the Cowboys from actually winning.
You answered too soon,I added more to that post,like who was that Cowboy running back back in 1976-77 with the big thighs,the one who played with Preston Pearson in the backfield?
I was 6yrs old. I would say Dorsett because that is all I remember. Not a football history whiz
No,it was before Dorsett. I got my years wrong too,it was the 1975-76 season where the Cowboys played the Steelers in their first Super Bowl match-up against each other.
Robert Newhouse. He played fullback for the Cowboys during that 1975-76 season with Preston Pearson. He was 5-10,209 lbs,which compared to ex-Cowboy Calvin Hill,was small(although he was only two inches shorter & the same weight as Walt Garrison who he replaced when Garrison retired),but he had huge thighs.
That was Newsome, wasn't it ?
Fwiw, I have always disliked the Cowboys (after Landry left).
Correction, you had it, Newhouse.
I do n't understand your Cowboys never had name RB's, they had a guy that was pretty much a household name in EMMITT SMITH.
Before that Tony Dorsett , Dwayne Thomas and I can't remember who else was with Thomas, but they had some very good RBs
No,I meant the RB' s who played in 1975-76 long after Duane Thomas left,just after Calvin Hill left & Walt Garrison retired,& before Tony Dorsett was drafted. The Cowboys also had Hershel Walker after Dorsett & long before Emmitt Smith.
So you were looking at a particular time frame ...
I was scratching my head when you mentioned not having any Name RB's.
But it's safe to say that Robert Newhouse & Preston Pearson weren't big name "all-stars," at the time at least,not like the Steelers' Franco Harris,St. Louis Cardinals' Terry Metcalf,& the Vikings' Chuck Foreman(to name a few that I can remember off the top of my head) were during that period
