Dallas Stars Handily Defeat Dallas Cowboys in Shortest Twitter Flame War Ever

@dallasstars our sincere apologies for the inappropriate tweet posted accidentally to our account. Good luck this season.
— Dallas Cowboys (@dallascowboys) January 8, 2013

Earlier today, the Dallas Cowboys official Twitter account sent out the following message about the end of the NHL lockout: “Similarly in the category of nobody-cares…the NHL is back!” Their city-mates, the Dallas Stars took umbrage at the remark answering back with a fairly simple scoreboard tweet pointing out that Tony Romo sucks while Mike Modano rules.

At least our #9 got the job done….. RT:” @dallascowboys Similarly in the category of nobody-cares…the NHL is back!” twitter.com/DallasStars/st… — Dallas Stars (@DallasStars) January 8, 2013

The Cowboys deleted the tweet and apologized. It was the right thing to do politically, but in their defense, the Cowboys (2009) have made the playoffs more recently than the Stars (2008). Plus the Cowboys last Super Bowl was just 4 years before the Stars only Stanley Cup… Did I say shortest flame war? I mean most pointless.

I just remember that the Stars’ big moves this offseason was Jagr and Whitney. Combined age? 80.

I think they will combine to make $9 million dollars this year (prorated, obviously).

Lots of money for them to spend on early bird specials.

moving the Northstars out of Minnesota, along with their awesome sweaters and moving them to Dallas and the abominations above was the beginning of the downfall for the NHL.

Trading away James Neal was garbage. I hope someone offer sheets Benn.

Trading away James Neal was garbage.

And then giving Goligoski 4.5 million a season.

Here’s something to ponder: It has now been 17 years since the Cowboys won a Superbowl (’95), which is 3 years longer than the drought between the ’77 Super Bowl win and the one in ’92.

The Cowboys have had 2 playoff wins since ’95, which is 4 less than the Carolina Panthers have had since ’95 (their entire existence), and as of last weekend the same amount as the Texans have (since their inception in ’02). Other teams that have more playoff wins during this time frame: Jacksonville (5), Miami (3), Oakland (4), Arizona (5). Even the Redskins have had 2 playoff wins during this timeframe.
