Put Barry behind that Cowboys line and see what would have happened. And saying he was like Randy Moss???..the guy never said a fuckin word and always did his job, cant blame him for wanting to leave Detroit after all those years of them giving him no help. Smith wouldnt even be a top 10 RB if it wasnt for the team he played on, but your a Cowboys fan you dont know any better.
i was just giving you shit about barry, if you read on i actually said he was top 3 all time runners however....
if i have one play left to win the game i want barry - take your shot.
If i need one drive to win the game i want emmitt- take it to the bank.
barry - about attitude he was not a good lockeroom guy, a good person a great player but not a leader or a person who could will a team to a win like a joe montana type. Emmitt smith did will his team to a win many times, best i remember was over the giants with separated shoulder in overtime last game of the season to lock up a playoff spot. he is the only reason they won that game. barry was great but he was not a leader of men. you should know that better than this ignorant "cowboys fan" if you are a barry fan and follower.
and i promise i have forgotten more about football than you will ever know. I played it for years, fanatic about cowboys and nfl know more about the history of the game than you ever will. know who gale sayers is? He is one I would definitely put above barry Sanders if you know anything about football you will not argue. name your favorite team and lets match wits......
as for the cowboys team that emmitt was on, that is a crap argument i hear all the time. it was a great team with good players. why do people like you(idiots) say the team was loaded in one breath and the next troy, emmitt michael etc were not great players. can't have it both ways. Larry brown won a freaking super bowl mvp (yes it was handed to him) and he was one of the worst cb's we have had in a long time! how well would the team fare without some of the key players? we will never know we only know what WAS accomplished together. these guys were winners, none was ever the best at his position in the league(except deon later), but they freaking WON. Why is it that Michael irvin can pump up his team with an average qurterback, average running back, himself as a slow reciever novacek as a slow te to super bowls and barry cannot? don't pretend you are some nostradamas clone and you know barry would have led them to super bowls too - he was a dart and dash running back and they were a run by the numbers team - timing and execution not his style. Few players are ever greater than the whole. Barry might have been one, but he may have been thurman thomas too......great player who folded when it really mattered. we will never know. we will never know if barry
could have been a winner. we do know he was not.....
it pisses me off when guys say cowboy fans don't know football. Number one do not lump real fans with transplants from up north or wannabe fans who root for the team who is on tv the most (real yankees fans feel my pain here) we are freakin Texans for the most part - dream of nothing else but playing under those friday night lights from early on. take out cali and florida and where the hell do they know and love football like here in texas? ok maybe penn too.......those people who you see in texas stadium on sundays are mostly transplants from up north with corporate seats who do not even care about the game. that is one knock on the fans i agree with. Texas stadium sucks to see a game in because 1 in 1,000 fans is diehard. the real fans are out there, just not on tv....they are drinking beer at grandma and grampas and playing football at halftime.
fu cowboy fan haters............as for those who hate the cowboys, that fine, that is what its all about isn't it? I hate the freakin redskins....
and fu jpfurry34. sorry i hurt your feelings about barry, i tend to look at the facts, not what could have been. barry was a great runner. what else was he? leader? super bowl winner? looked up to and respected by his teammates? counted on to carry his team? nope, not so much.........
