Drew Magary checks in with another entry for his Blue Star Blog on the Cowboys. Somehow, it seems he scored an “interview” with the terrifically verbose Hall-of-Famer, Emmitt Smith:
‘Emmitt’ Sounds Off Again

↵On the new stadium:
↵I think it’s nutrageous. Absolutely nutrageous. To spell all that money on a stadium in today’s economic climax, I think it’s a real upfront to people out there who are living hand-to-eye.↵On the new video board:
↵It’s a very nice TV. Very high deposition. But at the end of the day, it’s still just a TV. And the fact is, it’s an OBSTETRICIAN! It’s going to ostracize any punt that gets in its way. If I’m a punter in the Nationals Football League, I am LIVER about it.
↵The rest of his fake interview is fantastic as well, and I appreciate the ode to Smith’s accidental brilliance. In a world full of idiotic announcers ripe for skewering, Emmitt provides better satire than anyone in the world.
