What Has Happened To America's Team?

No time soon will Roger Staubach, Tony Dorsett, Drew Pearson, Troy Aikman, or Emmitt Smith will be walking through the locker room for the Dallas Cowboys. What has happened to America's Team? There was a time when you would always see the Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs and vying for Championships. Right now for Dallas Cowboy fans that is just a distant memory. Can the Dallas Cowboys be fixed?

Jerry Jones took over the Cowboys and many people point towards him as the reason for the Cowboys downward spiral. I will agree with that to a certain point. Jones needs to hire better personel to run the organization and draft then he has right now. The draft has not been kind to Jones in recent years. Drafting helps build yopur organization and the Cowboys have dropped the ball on this one.

The second group you can blame this on is the players. It's true the Cowboys do not have the cream of the crop, but at times they are just plain lazy. Players must do more if they hope to win. At times I have watched Cowboy players just stand around. There really is no quick fix for them. Everyone must take accountability if they hope to be a contender once again.

Can Anyone Stop The Heat From A Third Straight NBA Championship?

Most everyone you talk to will tell you the road to the NBA Champion ship will run through Miami once again. I will admit the way the Heat have been playing that very could be the truth. It seems they always play there best basketball about now. Lebron James is having another MVP season and leading the Heat to some impressive wins. Can anyone dethrone them?

Out West there could be a few teams that should give the Heat trouble if they meet. Many people think Oklahoma City can, but I just do not see that. They do not seem to be able to finish the deal and I think that will continue this season as well. I like the Clippers as they have everything in place to make the push. Getting Doc Rivers could make the difference.

In the East the Heat will have two main contenders the Bulls and the Pacers. Many people are writing off the Bulls,but I am not one of them. Chicago knows how to beat the Heat. They have also been playing without there superstar Derrick Rose, so that won't be a problem either. Indiana is another team that knows how to beat the Heat. They have the right mix this year to get it done. Having the talent and getting it done is two different things.

 In the end it will take a great effort to dethrone the Heat. It will be interesting to see if anyone can do it.
