Growing up in Dallas, there is nothing better than living in Washington, D.C., on “Misery Monday”—the Monday after the Dallas Cowboys have whipped the Washington Redskins. And believe me, yesterday was a whipping with the Cowboys defeating the Redskins 44-17.
In fact, over the past few years, rather than being a bit blue about having to go back into work on Monday after a weekend, I’ve quite enjoyed working my way in from the suburbs, listening to the local sports radio talk shows in the car, and hearing the immense amount of complaining, bellyaching, and shear disgust at how poorly the Redskins have played. And while Cowboy’s owner and general manager Jerry Jones has to be one of the most embarrassing owners of a major sports team in the country, he appears Churchillian when compared to Redskins owner Daniel Snyder. At least, under Jones’s watch, the Cowboys have won three Super Bowls, while Snyder has the dubious distinction of having had 8 different head coaches in the decade and a half he has owned the team.
