"How do you like them apples?"/="How 'bout them [mascot]s. "

A Cowboys coach did use that phrase once but it was hardly invited by them. The phrase "how about them blank" has been around a long time and have nothing to do with Joel's deranged attitude where the owner of the Cowboys and his comments should in no way be seen as factual. Mostly likely the phrase originated in WWI as "how did you them apples" where apples were the bombs they were lobbing at the Germans.
And I believe "how (a)bout those [mascot]s" was far more common (invariably?) until '92.

Great game, but as a fan there's one thing that displeased me greatly...

It was basically the slogan of the Cowboys when they got good again under Jimmy Johnsons coaching.

Okay... I suppose you did answer the question, somewhere deep down in that whole thing.

I usually get around to it at some point; you just have to dig through the tangents.

Dallas was above .500 coming in, now 2-2 (.500 exactly). Bengals are 3-1 (.750). Both Denver wins.

To be fair, his accuracy will probably improve as the season goes on
