Anymore Cowboys stories? I want to hear more about the White House
Nate Newton, Charles Haley, Michael Irvin and Erik Williams talked about wanting to have fun but "be respectable about their shyt." They bought a white-colored house right next to the practice facility in Valley Ranch.
They had a constant supply of coke, alcohol and heauxs running in and out of the place. Neighbors didn't realize what was going on since they didn't get too loud and rowdy. The neighborhood was mostly quiet. The guys had cameras installed all over that place (allegedly). Mike was one of the few guys that could spend all night getting high and running with half-a-dozen women but was always the first person at practice........outrunning everyone in team sprints. The young brehs tried to keep up with him but they couldn't handle it.
Jimmy was able to control the party animals. He let Mike get away with crazy stuff because Mike was ALWAYS ready to go at practice and in games. The younger dudes that COULD hang with Mike and perform were 'OK' but the guys that showed up sloppy drunk and high would get cut. Jimmy left and Barry took over. The team still had the party ways but no one to control the egos and personalities when Switzer became coach. Sucks because honestly the 1994 team that lost to the Niners in the NFC Championship game....that was their best squad, no question. With Jimmy, they win that game (don't get down 21-0 five minutes into the game - lose 38 to 28) and curb stomp San Diego in the SB.
Emmitt was considered a "good guy." Not a square but he'd go out with a few girls, dancing and stuff....maybe take one or two home, but definitely not on that drug stuff. His parents, especially his mom, were a good influence on him. Never really heard any mess out of him.
The white guys on the team tended to hang together (except Kevin Gogan who I think preferred the sistas), like Moose, Troy and Jay Novacek. Jay Novacek and Aikman both grew up on farms so it makes sense that they'd get along. The type of dudes that had to get up in 4 am and move bales of hay before school..that kind of shyt.
Jerry had a giant book full of the best looking flight attendants from American Airlines. Dude also had their measurements (38-24-38 lol). Not sure how he got that info but...who knows.
Charles Haley got mad with Jerry didn't give Emmitt a big contract before the start of the '93 season. Everyone knows that the 'Boys lost their first two games. What many forgot was that Charles got so mad at Jerry, he threw a helmet and put a huge dent in the locker room wall. The helmet barely missed hitting Jerry straight upside the head. Imagine the shyt-storm in today's world.
