Post Season Hangover and some news

It's still extremely early to be talking about the '08 Season, but here's a few tidbits that have been popping up about random things for The Dallas Cowboys:

-Long Snapper, L.P. Ladoucear, was given a contract extension of 5 years.

-Linebacker Zach Thomas of the Dolphins was recently released and is supposedly interested with joining The Cowboys.

-Julius Jones' remaining a Cowboy seems more and more doubtful as he heads into unrestricted free agency. That coupled with Marion Barber being a sure shot candidate for starting next season, Jones' departure wouldn't be the end of the world.

Nothing else seems to be happening with The Boys, or the NFL for that matter. Football fever has faded in people's hearts, being replaced with basketball and volleyball competitions.

I'm still in the denial stage of the season's end, choosing instead to watch NFL Replay over and over as if I've never seen the games before. I'm still wearing all my jerseys, going nowhere without a Dallas Cowboys hat, and refusing to stop cuddling with a football to sleep, (also, my boss is starting to get annoyed with the cleats.)

But alas, this fever will fade in my heart as well. Someday, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but someday soon my attention will be elsewhere, and I will barely even remember the name Tony Romo or Bobby Carpenter. I won't be chatting football with the co-workers who I barely know. I'll end up changing my computer desktop from the Dallas Star to a dog wearing sunglasses. That is, until the draft.

Ah, the draft. The defibrillator of the NFL, which pumps life back into the fans who were thought dead by lack of 'Football Fever!' Fans near and far take a look at their team and realize that they need more. They dive deeper than the paparazzi into draft prospects' stats, then refresh their knowledge of their own team's weaknesses and wish and pray that the right players get picked.

Again, it's too early for such talk, so I must bid you farewell for now. If big news comes down the tube, I'll be back, if not, I'll be amongst the hordes that survey all draft information, so in about 5 months, I'll definitely be back to see what college has to offer.
