    Always Average Cowboys

    With yet another embarrassing loss, mediocre Dallas Cowboys are right on schedule

    Brad Seal

    Dallas Cowboys fans are stunned and irate after witnessing yet another crushing loss by their favorite NFL team. I, however, don't understand the confusion that people have about this team letting the game slip away.

    This is a team that has a 122-118 record during the past 15 years. It has been 8-8 for two straight seasons, and the record for this season sits at 7-7. The Cowboys are the poster child for a .500 team. Yet fans are still amazed that the team loses so much. Have you never heard Einstein's definition of insanity?

    Sure, Dallas should have won the Packers game, and they should have beaten Detroit. Yet no one expected the Cowboys to sweep the season series with the New York Giants for the first time in a decade, so in reality, Dallas is right on schedule.

    Although Dallas has a few Hall of Fame-caliber players, the full roster is sub-par. The result is a perfectly average team.

    Perhaps fans are upset because they see names like Tony Romo, Jason Witten and DeMarcus Ware represented in the Pro-Bowl on a regular basis. They see Dez Bryant being mentioned in the same breath as some of the most talented receivers in the league. A team with this many household names should be better than .500, right?

    Sadly, football is not like the NBA, where one big star can change the fortunes of a team for a decade. A franchise quarterback like Peyton Manning might be able to elevate a team from terrible to respectable, but winning playoff games takes a team-building effort at every position.

    Jerry Jones is unparalleled at promoting his players, which gives people an inflated impression of talent. For example, the Cowboys gave up two high draft picks to move up and grab defensive back Morris Claiborne in the 2012 draft. They did this because Jones proclaimed that Claiborne was the most talented defensive back to come to the NFL in more than two decades.

    It's now been almost two seasons, and Claiborne appears to be going the wrong way in his development into a superstar. Even if he were to make massive strides as a defender this season, Claiborne can only play one position.

    This sums up the inherent flaw with the Jerry Jones' Cowboys. Although there are some Hall of Fame-caliber players on the team (mostly aging stars drafted by Bill Parcells), the roster is made up of 53 men. Too many of them are below par in terms of both talent and production. Add it all up, and the result is a perfectly average team.

    Jones can fire Jason Garrett after this season; he can get rid of Monte Kiffin and Bill Callahan. But that won't change the fortunes of this team for very long. To make the Cowboys Super Bowl contenders again, Jones needs to change his entire philosophy of gathering talent, both for coaching and playing.

    Until he does, Cowboys fans should prepare themselves for more .500 football. It's a premise that the fans can feel perfectly average about.

    Dallas Wings new women's basketball stars get warm welcome from city

    The Dallas Wings No. 1 draft pick Paige Bueckers brings big hopes for fans in the 2025 season

    The newest members of women's basketball team the Dallas Wings are already making waves: Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, and her fellow new recruits were welcomed by a press conference at Dallas City Hall on April 23 — part of the Dallas Wings' official introduction of the rookie class.

    According to a releasae, Dallas Wings draftees Paige Bueckers, Aziaha James, Madison Scott, JJ Quinerly, and Aaronette Vonleh were welcomed by Mayor Eric Johnson and City Manager Kimberly Bizor Tolbert, and gifted with cowboy hats by the City of Dallas Economic Development Corporation.

    The team will start the 2025-2026 season playing at the Memorial Arena in the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center. Their home arena is College Park Center on the UT Arlington campus, with one exception: They'll be playing their June 27 game against the Indiana Fever, featuring superstar Caitlin Clark, at American Airlines Center in Dallas.

    Fans will have to pony up the big bucks for that epic game, with the price for two tickets starting at $255, although the upper 300 level has not yet been opened for sale. Those wanting to sit near the floor behind the baseline will run themselves a pretty $1,205 for two seats.

    After Clark joined the WNBA in 2024, almost half of the other teams in the league moved their home games against the Fever to larger arenas. All of the other Wings home games are currently scheduled to take place at College Park Center.

    If all goes as planned, 2025 will be the last season for the Wings at that venue. In 2024, the team announced plans to move to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas Memorial Arena in Dallas, starting with the 2026 season.

    Bueckers joins the Wings after closing out her college career by winning her first national championship, with Connecticut dominating the previous champions, South Carolina, 82-59. She's considered by many to be the league's next superstar.

    The 2025 Dallas Wings season comes with much anticipation. Since the end of the 2024 season, the Wings have revamped their front office, which included the hiring of Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Curt Miller and Head Coach Chris Koclanes. In addition to the 2025 WNBA Draft Class, Miller made significant roster moves during free agency which included signing reigning WNBA Most Improved Player DiJonai Carrington, 2022 All-Rookie Team pick NaLyssa Smith, former Wings guard Tyasha Harris and 2020 All-WNBA Second Team member Myisha Hines-Allen.
