Dallas Cowboys fans are a little jaded after Thursday's loss to the Washington Redskins.
2 signs of the Cowboys' Apocalypse on Thanksgiving at Cowboys Stadium: 1. Out of confusion, Tony Romo ran a quarterback sneak on 1st-and-10 with his team trailing 28-6; 2. Out of boredom, a female fan below the press box was actually knitting.

Czar Jerry reminds me of a Mort Sahl observation: "Washington couldn't tell a lie. Nixon couldn't tell the truth. Reagan couldn't tell the difference".
The Cowboys under Jason Garrett are 16-16, including 4-9 since Thanksgiving. Their repetitive errors are chronic and, at this point, they appear fatal.
