Disappointment of the Week: Emmitt Smith

For a man that made his legacy in Dallas to go back to Texas stadium in Cardinal red and white seemed almost sacreligious.

For him to not even get positive rushing yards the entire day was just embarrassing.

To see him in the post-game interview crying about how much the game was about how hard you try was just pitiful.

He never mentioned that instead of retiring a Cowboy, he wanted to play one more season for a team that had no chance of breaking .500, not to mention competiting for a Super Bowl berth.

Isn’t this the same guy that said that he was “surrounded by trash” in Dallas? Obviously not, since the Cowboys are 3-1 without him with basically the same core of players.

Next time, if you are looking for sympathy, don’t look like the pitiful old man that you are now and retire with some dignity.
