Off Week

Ok, so it's the bye week, and news is sparse. There have been a few tidbits around Dallas though. Anthony Spencer is very likely going to start in place of Greg Ellis, who might come in only on passing downs.

Tony Romo is practicing, and is on course to play next week against Washington. He still has a splint and bandage of some sort, but he is out there getting ready.

And the most important news of the week, which doesn't fall into the football category at all, is the election of Barack Obama.

In a truly historic election, Obama won the presidency in a landslide victory against John McCain. He won states that have been strictly Republican for ages and did so in a very convincing fashion. His confidence, values and vow for change inspired the majority of Americans and proved that anything is possible and this country truly has the ability to unify for one common cause.

This message of unity and inspiration has also made an appearance in the locker room. Wade Phillips reportedly used this election as a metaphor for their team, who has the ability to unify for one common cause... in this case, the Super Bowl.

Next week we'll see how much 'change' this team can make.
