I just found out that Emmitt Smith went to Arizona. You can not imagine how upset I am. #22 is my favorite player of all time, and I literally cried when I found out. I pretty much grew up with Emmitt playing RB for Dallas. <br /><br />This is very depressing. :( :( :( :( :( :(

Why in the world would he go to AZ? He could have gone to a contender....

Sad to say but Emmitt will go out a loser just like so many other great athletes have done in the past. Oh wait a minute,,,, thats right Emmitt played for dallas that means he would have been a loser at any rate :D GO EAGLES

I hope your not really upset at my post Nathan.?? Heck the Eagles Cowboys rivalry has been going on for years and years. At least Emmitt stayed in the NFC and you will get to see him play.

Bill Parcels is one of the greatest coaches alive. He knows how to build and turn around teams. You watch what he does in Dallas... I just hope he steals as many good people from the Jets as possible.... Curtis Martin comes to mind :D

Dallas needed some new blood and to save on caps..many older players are going this way..look at Oakland. Emmitts happy and he will add alot to a team can really use him...still a Dallas fan here but go Packers

Parcells will make Dallas a contender within 2-3 seasons at most as long as he gets along with JJ. Watch...

I agree, Jerry Jones was the downfall of the Cowboys in the mid 90's anyway.

Parcels had a hard time getting along with Bob Kraft and Kraft is a marshmellow. No way JJ is going to stay out of BP's face... But there's hope.

Re: Say it isnt so Emmitt!!!

its sad about the emmit situation, he is a great competitor and will continue to be, even in arizona. bill parcells will have some success but will never see another superbowl, at least from the sidelines he wont. dallas will see a superbowl after bill & jerry get in a fight and bill goes back into retirement.<br />and curtis martin will never go to dallas, he will stay with the better team! (the jets) unless he gets emmit smith'ed out of there. :D

Re: Say it isnt so Emmitt!!!

If memory serves, I was playing in the band at the very first highshcool game that Emmitt played. I was in the Milton Band, he played for Pensacola High. P'cola wooped the snot out of us. It was a slaughter, and Emmit was their weapon of choice. I used to be an Emmit fan, but found out that he personally is no one that I would care to associate with. Also, he is no longer the player he once was. His per game carrying averages are a joke compared to what they once were, and compared to younger players it is obvious he is no longer a great contributer to anyone other than his team's opponents. Like Troy Aikman(sp?) stayed in game longer than he should have, Dan Marino, Joe Montana.....these guys play until their greatness is overshadowed by their inability to function with even marginal competitiveness. I think it is past time for Emmitt to pack up his white girls and head for home, which, BTW, is located just SOuth of I-10 on Senic Hwy, Pensacola. Nice place.
