This might sound corny, but Dallas losing at home on Sunday in embarrassing fashion is going a long way towards blunting the sting of the Eagles getting their ass kicked in Tampa.

Understandably, Stephen A Smith is having himself a day at ESPN. Nobody trolls the Cowboys and their fans better than Stephen A, and he was on it from the jump on a Monday:

“Howdy! How do you do! It’s Monday. It’s a special day here at First Take!”

I laughed out loud. I love it. The debate shows can be really dumb, but this is when Stephen A is at the top of his game.

Later in the broadcast, they played sad music over a montage of sad Cowboy fans, and had Stephen A narrate:


It’s perfect. A thing of beauty. We’ll get it back to the Eagles at some point this week, but for now let’s ride the sad Cowboys thing as far as it will take us.

HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS?!
