This is as much as a distraction as the HD scoreboard is for Dallas.

the dallas scoreboard is just dumb. yes, its within the rules, but clearly its going to impede play...why not just raise it? whats a couple of mill when you just sank 1.? billion?

Yeah but I wouldn't call it an off-field distraction. It'll be just a distraction to Jerry Jones.

Ugh, here we go again as if it wasn't beaten to death in another thread. And yeah that horse is dead.

All this flub from 1 punt by a backup punter, and not even mentioning the other 32 other punts in that stadium by punters who WILL be on a roster this season did not even get close to the scoreboard.

If you would calm the hell down, you would notice that I was downplaying this scoreboard thing as a way to compare it to the whole Portis thing that you are obviously making into a big deal. I think the fans and the team has gotten used to some of the crazy stuff Portis tends to say and I would call it at most a minor nuisance. I don't consider the scoreboard thing for the Cowboys an off the field distraction (unlike TO, Pacman, etc., etc.). It's honestly more of a joke.
