JLC: Tank Johnson Rips Rock Cartwright(merged)

[SMOSS89]

http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/


Says the noted man with class, Tank Johnson.

[chrisxcore]

Something something glass houses something something...

[tml6157]

Sooooooo Tank Johnson is ripping on Rock for being unclassy? Pot...meet kettle!

[Shilsu]

LOL

At least the rivalry is starting to gain some legs!!!

[EnFoRcEr_uPu]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football.

[Cruising270]

I f*@king luv it!!!!! Sure it's disrespectful but c'mon we're rivals and he was just saying farewell to Texas Stadium, lol. I luv you rock way to go brother!

[ZoEd]

I guess it's classy the way they jump around and celebrate after every play like a bunch of jackasses. Everytime a Cowturd made a tackle they'd jump up and dance around like they just won the super bowl. Come on, it's a tackle; you're supposed to do that in a football game.

[STBonecrusher21]

Hahaha.

I don't know. That's awesome by Cartwright I think.

[spjunkies]

LMAO I wish he took a dump on the star like in that dudes sig.

[loren]

How about instead of whining about to the media, you just admit you got beat, lick your wounds, and come to our place and do something about it then? What a loser.

[Zen-like Todd]

Good thing Tank wasn't around when Blade did this in 2005:

[Jofizz]

Loved when Thrash spiked that ball too. Bad blood makes this rivalry great.

[Hardcore Zornography]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football.


I agree with that. Had they gone and stood on our midfield logo after a win, we would be calling for their head as well.

Like him or not, Tank is right in this instance.

[RedskinsInFebruary]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football.

Huh?? Is there something sacred about the star in the middle of their field? Is somebody important buried under it or something?

[Rdskn4Lyf21]

Tank is a *****.

**** him and **** Dallas.

[Khun Kao]

This is coming from the team that tried to break up the Fun Bunch

[SMOSS89]

The fact that its Tank Johnson makes it ridiculous. Like someone said earlier, everytime they made a tackle they were like OMFG PALOFFSS!!!!

****in idiots.

[ZoEd]

Huh?? Is there something sacred about the star in the middle of their field? Is somebody important buried under it or something?


No ****! I could see if Rock pissed on it or something but he celebrated AFTER the game. He didn't pull a stunt like TO did when he played for the 49er's

[cahones01]

Cartwright said he was saying hello to people at the star and he got mad b/c Rock was standing there. Grow up Tank, and take your own advice.

[redskins55]

Tank Johnson doesn't even have enough hours in a cowboy uniform to be "disrespected" by a Redskin standing on the star. Learn something about the rivalry first before you call yourself getting mad at folks..

[ZoEd]

The fact that its Tank Johnson makes it ridiculous. Like someone said earlier, everytime they made a tackle they were like OMFG PALOFFSS!!!!

****in idiots.


Guess I'm not the only one that noticed it.

[Cheers, Beers and Mountaineers]

Waaah waaah waaah. Who knew a grown man playing in the NFL could be such a *****? Oh wait, a dallas cowboy, that's who.

[BuddyLeeGhostHunter]

I don't see what the big deal was. T.O. does worse.

Good for Rock to relish in the fleeting moment.

[loren]

I agree with that. Had they gone and stood on our midfield logo after a win, we would be calling for their head as well.

Like him or not, Tank is right in this instance.

Of course WE would, WE'RE fans, and we're supposed to get mad and vent about that kind of stuff. But if PLAYERS don't want other teams celebrating, then they should win the game, and if they don't win the game, they shouldn't whine about dumb stuff like that. Whine about why you lost the game, not whether some other guy stood on your stupid star after the game.

[Zen-like Todd]

Tank Johnson should talk to T.O. about the Dallas Star.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0knygnRnfd8

[Rdskn4Lyf21]

Huh?? Is there something sacred about the star in the middle of their field? Is somebody important buried under it or something?

Something like if you mock it the Cowboys will sign you in a few years :rolleyes:

[dinzelwashington]

where was t.o. to run and hit rock out of the star.. on the sidelines blaming his team for not getting him the ball. haha wat up teague!! where u at?

[Hardcore Zornography]

Cartwright said he was saying hello to people at the star and he got mad b/c Rock was standing there. Grow up Tank, and take your own advice.


If that is the case, then I retract my statement. I thought he was dancing a jig on the star or something.

If he was just on it talking with media and such, then Tank is just mad that they couldn't get the job done today.

[cubanl81]

Oh f'ing well. I wish after a touchdown somebody would go and spike the ball like TO. Its the Cowboys we should do stuff like that. Hell back in the day they threw a Cowboy jersey in a pig pen to get ripped up. This was tame.

[Bacon]

Anyone have pics of this beautiful occurrence? It would make for an awesome sig pic, methinks.

[#1Redskins]

And this is coming from a guy named Tank! Mr. Suspension who believes he's the NFL's "Mother Thresa"....

[kingfish50]

Hey Tank, too ****ing bad. Should have had a can of lighter fluid and set that little communist star on fire. We don't respect your stinking star!

[bnewbs]

Oh f'ing well. I wish after a touchdown somebody would go and spike the ball like TO. Its the Cowboys we should do stuff like that. Hell back in the day they threw a Cowboy jersey in a pig pen to get ripped up. This was tame.

I guess you missed the first TD pass to Thrash...he spiked the ball and he spiked it well :D

[whatmeworry]

At least Rock hasn't had to do any jail time.

[Dance04]

If the boys won on our homefield and did this I would be pissed. But thats the point. This is the greatest rivalry in football. We are supposed to piss each other off. therefore, I have no problem with what Rock did. I love it. **** the cowpukes

[kwitt]

All of this "don't disrespect the star" talk is a load of crap. What is so freaking sacred here? It is their logo that happens to be located at midfield. That is all it is.

[TheDoyler23]

Tank is just bitter because they lost, and he's losing snaps to another guy.

Crybaby.

[cphil006]

Did he realize what he was doing

It is Dallas... so, someone should have peed on it.

[TomE]

Dancing on the star is overrated but this is probably the last chance for a Skin to do it after a victory in that stadium, so go for it Rock.

The Poke's seem to forget that it was their own "stud" receiver who made it "fashionable" to perform the bluestar twostep.

[THEREALTOR1]

I agree with that. Had they gone and stood on our midfield logo after a win, we would be calling for their head as well.

I dare a piece of **** cowboy to come stand on our logo! Will never happen with this crew.

[WeThreeKingsRuleU]

LMAO I wish he took a dump on the star like in that dudes sig.

ah hahah, very nice, not saying I would have loved to see that, hear about it maybe, but who do you think would have tried to stop him?

good post :cheers:

[Larry]

Anyone have pics of this beautiful occurrence? It would make for an awesome sig pic, methinks.

I wouldn't mind that one, myself.

[FanboyOf91]

Cartwright said he was saying hello to people at the star and he got mad b/c Rock was standing there. Grow up Tank, and take your own advice.

Agreed.

Shut the **** up, Tank.

Somebody's projecting a bit much. Rock Cartwright is the last person on the Skins doing a victory dance on the 'star'.

[SKINchiefer]

good way to get in their heads some more, even if the game was over. lol

[WorldBFree76]

First of all, he's a scumbag anyway, so he shouldn't be talking. Secondly, his own teammate did the same thing on his beloved star.

[SKINchiefer]

oh and phuck the star..

[Hitman#21]

Tank a thug is telling someone else what to do give me a break.

[westcoasthog]

Suck it you convict Cowboy piece of :pooh:! Funny how they have all forgotten about TO! You got your punk arses beat! Deal with it!

[BuddyLeeGhostHunter]

I like seeing these Cowboys frustrated.

[slappy434]

Tank is a *****.

**** him and **** Dallas.

Tank is just bitter because they lost, and he's losing snaps to another guy.

Crybaby.


oh and phuck the star..


I like seeing these Cowboys frustrated.


agreed.

:dallasuck


The worst part is yet to come. The sewage that will spew from c-boys fans mouths this coming week will be terrible.
Good news is that it doesn't matter. Simply tell 'em to dine on some d**k and call it a day.

[33]

The moment they signed TO they gave up the right to complain about people even so much as looking at the star sideways.

[KAZEstrong]

tank williams calling some one classless is almost as big of an oxymoron as "george w. bush center for intelligence".. good thing theres no such thing as that:doh:

[#21Taylor4Ever]

Sounds like someone's a whiny little *****! Maybe if Tank wasn't owned by Portis all game, Rock wouldn't have been able to dance on their ****ty star. Hahahaha!

[#1Redskins]

Funny how Tank "The Sissy" Johnson talks about Rock! But one of his teammates(*coughs* TO) danced on that very same piece of s$%& emblem when he was on the 9ers, but now Tank carries his jock strap...... These Cowturds are too much!

[21Knock_U_Out]

Huh?? Is there something sacred about the star in the middle of their field? Is somebody important buried under it or something?

I know, right? Who gives a :pooh:

[skinsince72]

He's lucky Rock didn't reach down and tear a big ole patch of the star out and wipe his *** with it.

Good bye Texas stadium. Thanks for the memories, especially tonight's.

[NewCliche21]

**** Johnson, I hate the piece of ****, but Rock shouldn't have done that.

We're better than that.

[BleedBNG]

Something like if you mock it the Cowboys will sign you in a few years :rolleyes:
LOL!
Was it roped off after the game or something? I can understand after a TD, but c'mon... after the game? Everybody's walking all over the field. I don't get his complaint on this one. Unless he's trying to come up with a memo for the BB the next time they play us. VERY WEAK.

[ColdnGrey]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football.

:rolleyes:

[Cherick]

Great job Rock!! haha!


And Tank Johnson talking about manners?! The sky is falling!!

Useless without pics...

Seriously, does anyone have a pic of this?

Roy Williams. Beat in coverage again that night. :)

[JohnnyUtah]

waaaahhh waaaahhh waaaahhh...deal with it, Tank...

[Redskins:Victory_or_Death]

Roy Williams. Beat in coverage again that night. :):rotflmao:

[Redskins:Victory_or_Death]

Something like if you mock it the Cowboys will sign you in a few years :rolleyes:Blondie does not like your joke. :mad:

I suggest you apologize immediately.

:D

[Redskins:Victory_or_Death]

Huh?? Is there something sacred about the star in the middle of their field? Is somebody important buried under it or something?I think something is buried under that star...it's one (or more)of the following:

A. Jimmy Hoffa.

B. Newman's and Williams's coverage ability.

C. The Cowboy's dignity.

D. Their last playoff win.

[bulldog]

Like Tank Johnson has been in Dallas long enough to come on strong with these feelings :laugh:

He acts as if he is a 12 year Dallas veteran who has bled silver and blue.

And as to the question of celebrations?

How about the Cowboys hot dogs over the years rubbing in their big plays and game ending wins?

How about Hollywood Henderson, Tony Hill, Harvey Martin, Deion Sanders? All the guys through the years.................

Anyone remember Harvey Martin throwing a wreath into the Redskins dressing room in Texas Stadium in 1979 after the Redskins lost 35-34?

These guys have had their own kind of classlessness at times.

Much worse than a guy standing at mid-field.

[BuryYourDuke]

Once again the Cowboys act and are treated as if they are somehow bigger than the NFL. No one would give two ****s if you celebrated at center field on the logo except for the Cowboys. Somehow the star is just too sacred. **** them. Dallas and the star can suck my balls. We own you.

[Cherick]

Roy Williams. Beat in coverage again that night. :)

[zskins]

From ESPN:

Postgame altercation

Redskins running back Rock Cartwright said he and Cowboys defensive tackle Tank Johnson had spent much of the evening jawing back and forth. But as the Redskins were kneeling on the ball at the end of the game, Cartwright said he stood at midfield and gazed through the iconic hole in the roof of Texas Stadium.

Johnson, who's is his second year with the Cowboys, apparently thought Cartwright was attempting to evoke memories of T.O. standing on the star several years ago as a 49er. After the final snap, Johnson raced over and shouted, "Don't disrespect the star."

[Chachie]

When an opposing player celebrates on your center field logo (twice) in a game, resulting in very bad feelings and a riled fan base and you later take that player on your team and make him your star, it no longer becomes a big deal for an opponent to celebrate on your center field logo. The dignity's already gone, Mr. Jones.

[Warhead36]

I forgot Tank Johnson was still in the NFL.

[NoCalMike]

Umm excuse me Jerry Jones signed the Wide Receiver that after scoring Touchdowns, ran to the middle of the field to MOCK the star......so obviously the cowboys organization doesn't care too much about "The Star"

Plus, there is no indication that Rock was "mocking the star" he was just standing there looking around....

[redskin faithful]

:cry:Tank Johnson is as classless as they come. :dallasuck

[sith lord]

**** Johnson, I hate the piece of ****, but Rock shouldn't have done that.

We're better than that.

What did he do that was so bad?

[RandyHolt]

That stupid star players dont even realize they are standing on that spray painted plastic toxic slick turf... heaven forbid they celebrate on that thing. How is it that only their star is the subject of these types of things? Every stadium has a logo.

Good for Rock players stand on the opponents field and celebrate every single game. Tank is trying to make its sound like his house or the house whatever implode that incomplete dome finally and end this stupidity.

[kevinklein]

Ask TO about celebrating on the star...

[elkabong82]

What does Tank have to say about TO doing it with SanFran?

[erock353]

As I sit here and read this, all I can think about is how the 'Skins dominated the Cowgirls tonight. Also, if Rock did anything of the sort then good for him. Last game at Gay stadium, I would have done alot worse.

Redskins 26, Cowboys 24. Ballgame!

[SkinsManNJ]

While its deemed disrespectful its still effin great that he did that. I loved it. HTTR.

[iMeast]

Geez the criminal gets mad so he has to start something after he loses. WHATEV! :eaglesuck

HTTR

[redman]

Sounds like Tank needs a hug.

[MaddogCT]

You would think Rock gave him "The shocker" for all anger.


:logo:

[LD0506]

It is just that arrogant attitude that makes me loathe their whole franchise, like they have a copyright on winning, no one else is supposed to celebrate it.

He can make an appointment to bite me

[adarsh1]

TO did it. He's now on their team..double standard cow****s?

[D'KanSkinFan]

Cartwright said. "He got mad that I went and stood at the middle of the star."

Rock didn't do anything "wrong"; Tank is a sore loser. Rock stood in the middle of the field~ just as our logo is in the middle of the field, so is their starie. If they don't want players and "others" on their starie, perhaps they need to take their starie off their field.

Simple solution for Tank, now isn't it?

PS: I wanted to stand on their star;)~

[tr1]

Did Tank pull out a gun and shoot Rock?

[Davethegolfguy]

Never thought a big dude like that would be such a wussy after a loss.

[skinsfan328]

Yeah at least it was after the game unlike a fellow teammate of his(t.o)!! Rock on!!!!!!!go skins

[LoveDaSkins172645]

I think Rock should have pissed on that star, and while he was at it, he should have pissed on Romo and TO!!!

What a great game!! My friend who is a Cowpoke fan won't even answer his phone.....

[DCMONEY]

Man Tank Johnson is just trying to hype him and the other Cowbums up for the next time they play. I'm like whatever. I've always been like this, if you don't want teams celebrating or running the score up etc., whoop their azz on the field. Then you wouldn't have to worry about seeing it.

[BigRay]

Tank is a *****.

**** him and **** Dallas.
:applause::applause: That's what I say oh boo hoo screw him and Dallas.

[PiLfan]

I love this quote from Tank:


"It's the fourth game of the season. No one has accomplished anything but a win.

Strange, i thought before yesterday, everyone had already penciled the cowboys in for the NFC crown and inevitable Super Bowl championship based on their media-obsessed 3-0 start....now it's only the "fourth game of the season"? :whoknows:

[WARPATH '82]

Huh?? Is there something sacred about the star in the middle of their field? Is somebody important buried under it or something?

EXACTLY....A current Cowboy player (who shall remain nameless) desecrated the star as a 49er....they seem to have forgotten or dont care about it anymore, so why should we care what a criminal on parole has to say about being classy? Whats Tank gonna do break out his arsenal of illegal and unregistered weapons because hes mad?

[Sonny9TD]

http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/


Says the noted man with class, Tank Johnson.

Tank should start with TO then. Tank Johnson the next George Teague.

[Sonny9TD]

For shizzel.

[wpenn1]

did tank even play in this game he didnt do ****. I guess you gotta get your name in the paper for something

[Cherokee]

First off, that whole "Stand on the Dallas Star" started back when TO, thats right "TO", played for the Niners. TO, as far as I know, was the first to do this. So, Tank should get his Cowboy history straight. If Rock intended to taunt anyone, a part of it would be to tick-off TO. Besides, the Cowpoke fans I know are fairweather. They need this poke in the ribs to know that nothing is certain, and the Superbowl is up for grabs, still. Fans must love their chosen team, win or lose.
To my Redskin Brothers and Sisters out there, Dallas is still a dangerous foe thus. It would behoove the Redskins to savor the win in Dallas, but work harder, study harder at winning the rest of the season, particularly the Dallas game at home. The Pokes will be gunning to beat them in DC. What a rivalry! Hail Redskins!

[WSHRedskins3ATLBraves3]

How can Tank Johnson talk about anyone being classless?

Screw dallas.

[Old Bay]

Sounded like Rock was just soaking in the moment, looking out the roof for the last time. I almost wish he had done this intentionally, but from the sound of it, it was innocent.

[Fieldy]

From ESPN:

Postgame altercation

Glad I wasn't the only one who saw this. It certainly seemed like he was doing it in reverance to the toilet bowl than to "disrespect" anyone on their team (although after all the things the pukes and their fans have done he would not be too far out of line). Rock's been with the team a few years and probably has more than a few memories in that stadium. Let him revel for a second...jeez.:dallasuck

[#1njskinsfan]

rock better be careful, tank might shank him in a pile....oh sorry, he might get his body gaurd to do it....lol

[SteelNeil]

He should have dropeed a deuce right in the center of the star.

Maybe Tank would like it better if Pac Man shot up a strip club on the star.

:eaglesuck:gaintsuck:dallasuck

[Gibbs Hog Heaven]

WOW! He's speaking in coherent sentences now? And he thought that up without any help?

Props to the prison education system.....

Hail.

[nightbird]

It's a rat-trap of a half-finished stadium in Texas, and this criminal acts like it's the Vatican.

[IbleedBnG83]

Hope Tank doesn't go shoot him. He's one to talk about showing class. Hmm, Rock Carwright: team player, has a good role in the community, respected by many or Tank Johnson: illegal weapons, abandoning wrecked cars from drunk driving, causing trouble in the locker room

[E44]

:rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao: :rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao::rotflmao:

[Passizle]

I think people arew WAY over reacting... Rock says he went over to say hello to some people. I guess they happened to be on the star. WHo gives a crap. Unless I see video of Rock doing something similar to what TO did... I call this a non story and over-reactive flame job...

[JdoubleU]

Come on, give tank a break. He was obviously upset after getting freight-trained all day long by the O-line! Besides, who made that dopey logo holy ground? The Skins ran all over it during the game why is the post game any different? That gun runner should be happy to be even in the league.

[Diver]

I guess it's classy the way they jump around and celebrate after every play like a bunch of jackasses. Everytime a Cowturd made a tackle they'd jump up and dance around like they just won the super bowl. Come on, it's a tackle; you're supposed to do that in a football game.

This bothered me too...I distinctly remember one play where Clinton gained like 5-6 yards and they celebrated like they stuffed him at the goal line. I couldn't believe it.

Also, at the end that clown Miles Austin celebrated on the TD catch when his team was about to lose the game. :doh:

EDIT...

[HogNose]

http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/


Says the noted man with class, Tank Johnson.

Great news.....the rivalry is awakening....:wavetowel:dance::point2sky

[red dot in a sea of blue]

I don't usually like when our player do stuff like this, but to me it sounds like he wasn't being disrespectful, just savoring a huge win.

Rock was drafted by us and has play with us for a number of years. He is a true Redskin that understands the rivalry. tank is a rent-a-player with with no ties to dallass or it's future.

I don't remember hearing his name called even once.

I hope he finds a tampon for his vaga-tears and I hope we gave the NFL a blue print on how to beat these turds every week.

If Rock was being disrespectful, he's certainly earned it. We've now won 5 of the last 7 against them, and "all hail" romo is 1-4 against us now...

what tank doesn't realize is that no one other than a bunch of ignorant rednecks "respect the star" most of the league and all of the non-"america's" team fans couldn't care less about them or their piece of **** stadium, much less their precious logo that tank has been wearing for less tahn one season...

**** dallass and **** their star....

[rd421]

anyone have a pic of this? i would love to have that and i cannot find it

[scuppajones]

I definitely need a pic of this, might have to make it my new wallpaper. Screw Tank Johnson, the whole team should of been celebrating on the star!

[sideshow24]

I guess it's classy the way they jump around and celebrate after every play like a bunch of jackasses. Everytime a Cowturd made a tackle they'd jump up and dance around like they just won the super bowl. Come on, it's a tackle; you're supposed to do that in a football game.

So right man. They have been doing it all year. I liken it to the Giant's and their "Ballin" celebration. F them. Gonna dish it out? Don't be surprised when it comes back and smacks you in the mouth.

[Reaganaut]

Hey Tank remember

Terrell Owens????

He's your teammate now. Choke on that chode Cowpie.

[Skinz4Life12]

Thats right ROCK!!!

take fat dump on that star!!

[Brotherz]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football.

Agreed. I find that to be absolutely inappropriate and I am a bit surprised that came from Rock who I consider a class act. That is their stadium and their home field. No need. You won. Look up at the scoreboard and celebrate with your teamates. I see NO reason to mock the opponents logo. None.

[McMetal]

Glad JLC was able to find one negative thing to talk about today...douchebag.

[BigMike21]

Whatever, I don't care. Was he dancing or just standing there looking up?

[Redshu]

I don't think that is a smart move. You show a team respect. You don't give them bulletin board material for when we meet again.......Not a smart move, but Tank, shut your gold-bricking hole.

[SkinnedAussie]

If you look up classless in the dictionary, don't be surprised if you see Tank's mug shot.

[Scamp1]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football.

Your right he should of lifted his leg, and gone doggy style. "F the Girls
today and everyday Hail!":dallasuck

[Blue Collar Skins]

"It is, what it is." - Rock Cartwright. The man was celebrating. Yes, decorum might have been to not rub their noses in it, but I don't think it was meant as how Tank took it. Either way, how great is it that our players are into the rivalry as much as us fans are?? :D

[phatboy41]

Alright, I don't think Rock should've done that. I think that is pretty disrespectful. If he was just standing there, then it's fine, if he was dancing on it or something, than that is disrespecful. And, Tank Johnson should be the last person speaking about classy football.

[RedskinGodfather]

Didn't TO do that as a 49er?

[RedskinGodfather]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0knygnRnfd8

This should bring back memories...almost caused a brawl!

[Rocky21]

Pssst. Hey Tank. Next time suit up and try to stop us if you don't like it.

[Spear]

Sounds to me like Rock was simply "taking it all in". He wasn't trying to draw attention to himself like TO. He was just trying to burn the memory of this game into his brain.

Tank is just a jackass looking to start crap.

[Koolblue13]

LMAO I wish he took a dump on the star like in that dudes sig.OLS, me too.

[gobigred]

Forget Tank Johnson they got whipped old school fashion and can't take it.

[Scamp1]

Huh?? Is there something sacred about the star in the middle of their field? Is somebody important buried under it or something?

Exactly my friend F that star , you want to spot light yourself and put a great big star in the center of your stadium . Well it makes me think, you
have taken a symbol to relate to what you think your team represents in
the NFL universe. So when you dont live up to the hype expect some feed back once in a while by a player who might be sick of hearing so much by a team that has done nothing to equal star status.:dallasuck

[artmonkforHOF]

OK first off anyone from the Boys calling out another player's calss is laughable. The fact that it was Tank "I need 4 guns to travel" Johnson is makes it sad (side note: why does a man nicknamed Tank need assault rifles?)

Then add to the fact he is talking about disrespecting the Star, kinda like TO did back in the day? So i guess this means Rock will get a contract offer from Jerrah cause he likes his swagger.

And Tank Johnson was talking about celebrating a win in week 4 like it was nothing. Here is a bit of advise for you and your fellow Cowboys defensive players: If you want to hang with the Redskins, maybe you shouldn't expend more energy celebrating meaningless tackles in the first quarter than you do for the rest of the game.

No one else noticed that? I knew after our second stalled drive that if we could keep this a 1 score game we would win simply because Dallas-being as flamboyant as they are-celebrated every tackle like they where Mike Jones in the Superbowl stopping the Titans.

I get celebrating a sack, go ahead and make yourself look stupid if you want to, but to jump up and start flayying around in a way that would make Shawne Merriman's dance look tame when you make a tackle on first down after a 6 yard game is just stupid. And then to do it again on third down after your opponent makes a first down...I mean do I need to expalin that any further?

It's what makes everyone love Dallas so much when they are winning(becasue we all know Cowboys fans go into hiding when they suck) which cost them that game. If they had played composed, I don'tthink we would have had that 7 minute drive in the fourth or had such a dominate 2nd quarter.

[Zarg]

Maybe he was paying homage to the stadium, the battles they've had in years past, and possibly his last trip there... ooooooorrr, maybehewasn't.....:rolleyes:

[Rocky21]

you have taken a symbol to relate to what you think your team represents in the nfl universe. So when you dont live up to the hype expect some feed back once in a while by a player who might be sick of hearing so much by a team that has done nothing to equal star status.qft

[jrfriedm]

To hell w/ that fat piece of crap.

[RonArtest15]

Maybe if Tank plays the 2nd time around, he can take it up w. Rock. Also, it's not like he (Tank) doesn't have certain teammates who have done worse in celebrations...word to George Teague knocking T.O.'s block off a few years back

[WinSkins]

Surprised Tank was around after the game to see anything. Doesn't he have to report in to his parole officer as part of his work release program? ;)

:dallasuck

[ljs]

No ****! I could see if Rock pissed on it or something but he celebrated AFTER the game. He didn't pull a stunt like TO did when he played for the 49er's

Exactly. not like he spilled popcorn on it..TO used to disrespect the hell outta the star when he was w/ philthy.

**** dallas, and **** their cry baby johnson. (yes, I did that on purpose, he's a baby johnson).

I'm soaking in this win and laughing at every puke fan I see.

[Reaganaut]

I totally identify with Tank Johnson's feeling about the star and not letting anyone celebrate a victory on it... oh right... I forgot TEAMMATE Terrell Owens danced on the star and all is forgotten about that right? Tank, are you saying that Owens isn't CLASSY? Why don't you tell him that yourself before we keep reminding everyone.

I just rewatched the footage of Owens on YouTube. LOL!!! They are mad at Cartwright??? What a joke. Owens did it twice to say "screw ewe Cowpies fans."

[icbmayday]

First of all F@%$* the star and I am glad he did it. Second of all the Cowboys have the least classiest roster since the Bengals cut all there weight. Third its the biggest rivalry in football and when an underdog wins in Dallas you do everything you can do as long as you don't get suspended.

[RedskinNutt]

Tank's a fat woman playing a football player. Go hide behind your guns you criminal...get more than 20 games under your belt for this team and maybe, then maybe you can talk...good money you'll be out of there in 2 years anyway.

Last game at that crappy stadium...outplayed them and beat them down...do your thing Rock! Should've done the back stroke all over that star.

[rdskns n 05]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football.

I am with you, That is just disrepectful..... We would like if someone did it to us.:logo:

[ljs]

I am with you, That is just disrepectful..... We would like if someone did it to us.:logo:

Well thank God some stupid blue star isn't in the middle of FedEx, so they can't.
:D

[mdboost]

I agree with that. Had they gone and stood on our midfield logo after a win, we would be calling for their head as well.

Like him or not, Tank is right in this instance.

[Sandman69]

I am with you, That is just disrepectful..... We would like if someone did it to us.:logo:

Umm... Hello... It is supposed to be disrespectful... Who said we have to respect them after whooping them? They never have. Hell I think it was Too Tall back in the day that threw the funeral wreath into our locker room after they kept us out of the playoffs. That is what makes rivalries, rivalries. If we get namby pamby about upsetting the other team, what is the point in having a rivalry. There has been ALOT more crap dealt over the years thant his!

I love it for that reason alone. He didn't do it during the game, which may be uncalled for, but afterwards, after an emotional win, I am GLAD he did it. I wish he had a tub of popcorn too, and did the camera mime, while wearing crying dark shades, and doing sittups in front of reporters. Too many people are so damned PC nowadays. Don't want to hurt thier fragile self image (cough TO cough)

Check out http://theredskinsblog.com/ 3/4 way down. The whole team was on the star (looks to be in the beginning though... I think). Was the star wet when they left? :silly:

F*** the Cowboys!!! I say :cheers: Rock! :dallasuck:dallasuck:dallasuck

Dallas traditionally has had more hot dog players than any other team.

I find it amusing that a player on a team that has had Hollywood Henderson, Tony Hill, Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders is worried that somebody ELSE is not showing an opponent enough respect :laugh: :laugh:

[Sandman69]

Thats the one! Thanks! Looks like it is before, cause they look to be a couple catchers around with the warming up.

[edgun88]

he sucks.............

[ouvan59]

Thats the one! Thanks! Looks like it is before, cause they look to be a couple catchers around with the warming up.

It definitely is before the game because of the angle of the sun. By the end of the game there was no sun on the field.

Says the noted man with class, Tank Johnson.
I'm sorry but i don't see anything about Cartwright when i click your source. Can someone help? i gotta see this

[HereComesTheDiesel44]

Stop crying Tank. Nothing special about that star. Pretty sure he didnt have that much respect for it when he had that C on his helmet

[Blondie]

I'm happy we won, but a stupid move by Cartwright...that isn't Redskins football..

EXCUSE ME? What EXACTLY is REDSKIN football in your opinion.

I DON'T think you WERE there so see the **** going on there. One of their classy fans threw a beer on my mom......and then ran away like a *****. THIS was the same guy who was cheering when SELLERS was lying motionless on the field.

So, tell me.........why was that a stupid move?

NEVER before have I had ANY trouble with boys fans. The trouble started before the game in the parking lot with some smart ass girl who THOUGHT she was going to get in my face.


Of course WE would, WE'RE fans, and we're supposed to get mad and vent about that kind of stuff. But if PLAYERS don't want other teams celebrating, then they should win the game, and if they don't win the game, they shouldn't whine about dumb stuff like that. Whine about why you lost the game, not whether some other guy stood on your stupid star after the game.

Exactly. Don't want that to happen.....then win the game and shut us up.



As I sit here and read this, all I can think about is how the 'Skins dominated the Cowgirls tonight. Also, if Rock did anything of the sort then good for him. Last game at Gay stadium, I would have done alot worse.

Redskins 26, Cowboys 24. Ballgame!

I watched the fans right behind the bench throw some things down onto the field. Talking trash to the team....and Rock got pissed. The fans acted out. The 4 white people and the 2 Hispanics that were in front of me got all pissed off about the game.........and at me.......cause I yelled the entire time.

Well BFD. Get over it. We came to their house and left with the mortgage.

Was it a junk mortgage?

God knows we can't have any more of those now with our economy. :doh:

Very appropriate statement.

WE OWNED Texas Stadium.

JUNK is a perfect definition

[m3rr3ll]

I am with you, That is just disrepectful..... We would like if someone did it to us.:logo:

Did you mean we wouldn't like it? To be honest, I would not mind if someone walked onto the middle of the field after they won. This whole situation seems to bother Tank more than anyone else. I still do not see what is disrespectful about what he did? From everything I saw there wasn't much to it...he was in the center of the field when the game was over.

And from this picture the whole team was on the star at the beginning of the game.
http://redskinsblog.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/midfield.jpg

Does that make the whole team disrespectful? No one spit or pissed or took a dump on the star...it happens to be the middle of the field. In most sports that is where everyone meets up to shake hands after the game. It is also where the coin toss is...

Until I saw some concrete evidence that he did something disrespectful I have to side with Rock. Tank Johnson is looking for something or someone to blame or point his negative feelings.

IMO this is a non issue and is being talked about more than it should.

It is just a field...and we won...

[hatethe cowboys]

I guess it's classy the way they jump around and celebrate after every play like a bunch of jackasses. Everytime a Cowturd made a tackle they'd jump up and dance around like they just won the super bowl. Come on, it's a tackle; you're supposed to do that in a football game.

Agreed. Well said. Hail Rock Hail

[KAZEstrong]

anyone see tank on the field more than 5 plays? i didnt. ratliff is their starter. i sure hope we dont lose and the only guy pissed about it is lorenzo alexander lol..

[Blondie]

Rock can not believe they made such a big deal about this standing on the star.

He said today he could not believe his pic was on the front page of yahoo.com and it had gotten this much press

[gate113]

After the Redskins won the final game they'll ever play in Texas Stadium, Redskins running back Rock Cartwright (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6119/) pulled a page out of the Terrell Owens (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/3664/)playbook and celebrated in the middle of the big blue star at midfield. Cartwright's grand contribution to the Redskins win was three kick returns for 71 yards....This is the type of stuff I don't like. Celebrating is fine but doing that is not necessary.

No use crying over spilled milk, but how would you guys feel if our guys danced at the 50 after a win???

Classic saying, act like you've been there before.

[Old Bay]

So...

Standing on the field, which so happens to contain the 'precious' star and looking up is constituted as show off dancing?

[Califan007]

As someone else already said, when Jerruh bent over and signed the originator of celebrating on Dallas' Star, he flushed all rights for the Cowboys to be offended by that act.

[kingfish50]

He wasn't dancing, he just stood there. No big deal but the dallASS fans will always make something out of nothing.
They sure did forget about their own time bomb doing a lot of gyrating on their star a few years back. dallASS fans sure do have a short memory, if any at all.

[Misterwookas]

Tank Johnson had to be restrained from going after Rock saying "Win with class and lose with class but there was no need for that..It was the fourth game of the season. It was just a lost...They acted like they won the Super Bowl or something" For some odd reason Tank Johnson didnt show up for the game neither did Terell Owens. Oh well. It will be more of the same come November.

I have to agree with you. Its just inappropriate and disrespectful. We have a GREAT rivalry. We can't stand each other. I get all that but c'mon. I respect the Cowboys. I respect everyone in this division and so should the skins players. I am sure that for the most part they do (even Rock). No excuses, I am sure he got all wrapped up in the emotion of this impropable win on the road but ya gotta keep your composure and show your opponent some respect. If the Boys came into our house and beat us and then danced on our emblem I would be disgusted and call them thugs etc. We look bad for this.

well, thank goodness for the "class" lesson from Tank Johnson.

[acason5]

The moment they signed TO they gave up the right to complain about people even so much as looking at the star sideways.

Bingo! We have a winner!
