So Keith Brooking didn't like Brett Favre throwing a touchdown pass to Visanthe Shiancoe when the game was out of hand. Poor baby. Hey Keith, I'm going to tell you something universally known throughout the sports world: If you don't like it, stop it. Saying the 11-yard scoring strike, Favre's 4th of the game, was classless and disrespectful is a gutless way of saying 'we gave up; we stopped playing and they should have too'.
Was the game out of reach? Yes. But instead of walking over to the Vikings sideline after the play and complaining about it in the post-game interview, use that play as a motivational tool. The Vikings have a killer instinct that is needed to win in the NFL. You have to continuously step on the throat of your opponent.
Now, I've never been someone that thinks a loss is a good thing for a team. Losing sucks; always has and always will. But if Dallas wants to get over the playoff hump and actually live up to their regular season hype, maybe they should look at the game film and learn how to not stop playing... regardless of the score.
