Money quote:According to a recent USA Today poll... Thirty-two percent [of the country] said that the season...
Don't worry Wade, it wasn't youSomething that has never happened since Jerral W. Jones bought the Cowboys in 1989 happened yesterday, Jerry fired his head coach midseason, terminating Wade Phillips after an embarrassing 45-7 loss to the Packers on Sunday, dropping the Cowboys to an awesome 1-7 in the 2010 NFL season.
