Well the experiment to make PacMan Jones to a model citizen failed. I was watching NFL Network when the new came in that Dallas Cowboys corner Adam Jones got supeneded. The cameras were focused on Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones. As you can tell, disapointment was written all over his face after he got the news. And Jerry knew he was playing with fire when he signed him, knowing that along the way, PacMan would slip up. On a night of partying at the Joile Hotel in Dallas, PacMan and a body guard got into a fight in the men's restroom.
PacMan let his players down, the Dallas Cowboys fans down, and Jerry Jones who took a chance with him when other teams did not want to touch him. Only to have it blow up. The three things Jerry did not want to happen with this Cowboys team, Terrell Owens complaining that he not getting passes thrown his way, PacMan getting in trouble, and Tony Romo getting injured. This has been a nightmare week for the Pokes, losing to Arizona made matters worse. Now the question we are going to see answered, will the Cowboys rally around back up QB Brad Johnson, and use this week to circle the wagons and right the ship. Or, are we on the verge of a collaspe of a season that experts had the Pokes playing for the super bowl in February.
The past few weeks, the Boys have been underachieveing, and they no longer walks through games. Comeback or collaspe? What are we going to see from the Cowboys the next few weeks.
Stay tuned, the soap opera continues.

FANTASY FOOTBALL
I've been doing the fantasy football thing for a while. Now i'm a Dallas Cowboys fan big time. But, i got 4 fantasy football teams. With players from teams that i hate. The Redskins and Eagles. Which has me to root for the two teams that i hate big time. What's a FFP to do? Well, for the sake of winning my league, I must set aside my differences and hate, and do the bigger picture outlook. And that is winning my league. Yes, I got the Redskins Jason Campbell on one team, and Donovan McNabb on the other. In Dallas, that is a living hell. So if you are in the same situation as me, just put your hate for one team aside for the sake of winning your league. Hey, we are in this together.

My version of You Tube for Dummies
It took me 1 1/2 months to post my first video on you tube. Keep in mind, I only had analog tapes, and that where the problem began for me. How to convert analog tapes to digital and upload them to your you tube channel. It was a long process, I've even asked some college students to help me out. Only to come away empty handed. The one thing about computers and how to work them, learning from your mistakes can help you out. I learned that you can't upload a dvd to you tube, the file is to large.
This was task #1, how to shrink the file. Looking for products for this task was a killer, but I found something that works great. Pinnacle makes this product call the digital converter. It converts any analog tape to digital. Cost around $129 at Best Buy. Getting that, and a USB external hard drive to load it and upload it on your you tube page is all you need. I shoud do a video on this because some of you are in the same situation, lots of vhs tapes, and vhs-c, and 8mm tapes that you want to convert. Quick lesson, get the digital converter, put your tape in your camcorder, or vhs tape deck. Get a audio-video patch cord with the rca plugs, and put in the outlets of the digital converter, match the color of the plugs with the outlet, that's very important. Then on the other end, plug the usb hard drive into the bottom end of your digital converter. Hit play on your tape player, and record on your converter to start converting your tapes to digital. When it's done, hit stop on both tape player and digital converter. You usb hard drive should have your video ready to upload to your you tube page.
Just wanted to share that with the folks. If you have any comments, would love to hear them. Oh yes, you can check out my you tube work on this blog page on the right side.
