The Dallas Cowboys are ranked #1 on Portfolio's National Football League Success Index list. It's also nice to see my two other favorite teams in the top 10: New England Patriots, Green Bay Packers. 8-)

Unlike previous years, I'm favoring the Cowboys over my two other favorite teams this season because Super Bowl 45 is going to take place in their stadium.

Well, my Steelers sit 18th on that list. I guess that's what you get when a team starts out well, and then loses to teams like KC and Oakland and finished at .500 and out of the playoffs. After a Super Bowl winning season, even. All I can hope for this year is that Big Ben stops acting stupid. And that either Dixon or Leftwich can survive the start of the season and get us a couple wins.

It must suck being a Steelers fan these days. Like you said they bombed after a Super Bowl winning season, and now they have to play six games without Big Ben. And when he does come back he'll have to face the Saints, then the Bengals, and then the Patriots. What are the odds of them making it to the playoffs this season?

Nah, according to my radio station they broke up, so no distractions this year.

Ahh, my only source of news is a sports radio station and they don't get into bullsh like that too often, guess I was wrong, haha. Well, the last 2 players she's dated won their championship that year (reggie bush and some NBA guy) so maybe it's a good omen.

Oh, man. The Packers pwned the Colts 59 to 24 yesterday. :( That's my vote for best 2010 preseason game! 8-)

I would say the odds are stacked against them pretty high. Unless the Steel Curtain defense can steal a bunch of wins, I don't see much hope for the playoffs.

So far one of my favorite teams (Patriots) won. Two to go!

Two down for you, thank God Phi lost, I can't stand them. Now we just need the Cowboys to win tonight and you get the trifecta.

Hell, yeah. :D I was so confident that the Packers would win, I pre-written a Packers vs. Bills prediction the other day that blasted the Eagles. :D

Edit: You have got to be kidding me. I swear if the Cowboys loses to the Redskins I'm going to explode.

Edit 2: Why didn't the Cowboys take the knee?!

I know, it's bullsh, you're not gonna score with 40 seconds left from your own 30 with no timeouts.

Man Romo should have just dropped if his only option were to throw the ball to the right where a load of Redskins was running... "come on!"

As soon as the Cowboys made that mistake Twitter went over capacity. lol

Edit: I hope that Barron was fired on the spot...

I can say that I was pleased with the outcome of the Steeler's game, but I don`t think they showed a lot of promise. If that`s what it takes for them to beat an average team, they`re in trouble. Hopefully Roethlisberger will come back and improve that offense enough so they don`t have that kind of trouble scoring.

Indeed. Dennis Dixon threw in some decent yardage, but the rest of the team didn't do their jobs well. I don't see Big Ben improving the team that much when he comes back...
