Digging through the Cowboys' trash

In a surprise move today, the Carolina Panthers have signed Vinny Testaverde for a year as their veteran quarterback, behind David Carr. I have one thing to say to Panther fans, "I'm sorry, I'm really very sorry." What were they thinking? Did they not see the fiasco that was the Cowboys two years ago, before Drew Bledsoe? Did they not see the shame in our eyes?? Testaverde was drafted into the NFL in 1987. I was 5 years old when he came into the league! But the Panthers needed a veteran now that Jake Delhomme is out for the year because of elbow problems. I told a few Panther fans at my job that as a Cowboys fan, I felt obligated to show them clips of the Cowboys season back then! I was sorry for them. But it might be better than current starter, Carr, who has been sacked more times than a bag of flour. One good hit to his back will send Testaverde onto the field, with an oxygen tank, wielding his AARP (American Association of Retired People) card and a cane.

And it seems like they're digging through the Cowboy's trash! They were the ones to pick up Keyshawn Johnson after we let him go. Now Testaverde? Who's next? Will the Big Tuna be making an appearance in place of John Fox soon?
