Your Sunday Night: Cage Dancers, Off-the-Heel Interceptions and 105,000-Plus Fans

LSUFreek already touched on last night’s action, but the night was so chock full of bizarre stuff, it merits another look. From a football perspective, did it get any stranger than the interception Kenny Phillips snagged on a fortuitous bounce off of Jason Witten’s foot?↵

↵It’s too bad for Phillips he didn’t get the run after the play. It’s not quite as egregious as last year’s prematurely blown whistle with the Chargers and Broncos, but if you watch the play, you’ll notice you don’t hear a whistle until Phillips is probably three to five yards away from the end zone. (Cris Collinsworth pointed out that an official along the sideline was making the incomplete motion, but had not blown his whistle.↵↵Now that we’ve got all the wacky on-the-field stuff out of the way, bring on the cage dancers!↵

↵I have nothing against the Cowboys, but purely from a “so sad it’s funny” perspective, I’d love to watch the Cowboys go through a few lean years, just so you see what it looks like when these poor dancer are up on elevated platforms and there are about as many of them as there are fans in the standing room only section.↵↵And speaking of the SRO folks, that couldn’t have been a good game experience, right? Going to NFL games is already less than family friendly -- or just downright hostile -- depending on where you go and who is playing, and that’s when people actually have the luxury of sitting in a dedicated seat. I anxiously await this first “uncontrollable riot breaks out” story. A $29 ticket, plus fees, and parking, and being butt-to-gut with thousands of other people all adds up to why I’d just stay home. At least the people who showed up got to watch Jerry Jones dig for gold.↵
