Well, not really but how’s this for a football-related new age revelation ~ the first of it’s kind, I’d say.

As I watched the team be announced at training camp (at this link under Cowboys Kickoff Presented by Miller Lite), I felt something was missing. I couldn’t put my finger on it. It wasn’t a bad thing. It was just different.

Then, it hit me. Right before the announcer called DeMarcus Ware, he joked about forgetting someone. “Who am I forgetting? Am I forgetting someone?” Hahaha. It was funny, yeah, but Ware is so humble and unassuming that it would have been funnier if the announcer were about to call someone with a real ego. Like T.O.

Ah HA! That’s what’s missing! Not T.O. necessarily, but the oversupply of ego, drama, bad energy.

I started humming and I don’t know where it came from. Bad Boys Bad Boys, Whatcha Gonna Do, Whatcha Gonna Do When Jerry Jones Gets Rid of You.

Bye, Bye. T.O. and your ego.

Bye, Bye Pacman Jones and your willingness to waste your G0d given talent on booze and temper tantrums.

Even you, Tank Johnson. Bye, Bye! I hesitate to write about you and your long ago gun incident because you seemed to turn over a new leaf. BUT, then I remembered how you made a joke on Hard Knocks at the expense of my fellow paisan Danny Amendola. It was something to the effect of Amendola not making the team. Well, who’s not on the team now, Tank?

Yes, it’s all very karmic. As I watched the lineup, I couldn’t help but notice how clean the team seemed. Not literally clean – but karmically. The bad energy is gone. There is hope for the new season.

Excuse me while I hum during downward facing dog. Bad Boys, Bad Boys, Whatcha Gonna Do….
