Roy Williams: The Most Popular Dallas Cowboy

The Dallas Cowboys have numerous personalities. Some are exciting, some are flashy, some are subdued, some are sophisticated (well, let's say more sophisticated than others), some are even cerebral. But there's one whose popularity reaches heights his teammates can only drool over. It's not Tony Romo, T.O., Marion Barber, Jason Witten or even Greg Ellis or Demarcus Ware. It's none other than Roy Williams.

Before you laugh this conclusion off as just another rant of another demented blogger type, I can easily demonstrate such a fact. We'll play a word association game and see which player you think of first. The fact that Roy Williams name ends up next to each word I choose should speak for itself.

Let's Start:

Hit Man - Roy Williams
Blown Coverage - Roy Williams
Terrell Owens Injury - Roy Williams
Horse Collar - Roy Williams
Missed Tackle - Roy Williams
Renewed Dedication - Roy Williams
Big Hit - Roy Williams
Persecution - Roy Williams
Criticism - Roy Williams
Excuse - Roy Williams
Journalists' Favorite Topic - Roy Williams
Next Year's Player - Roy Williams
Overshot The Gap - Roy Williams
Missed Opportunity - Roy Williams
Favorite Player From The Past - Roy Williams

See what I mean? And that's only the beginning. Out of respect for Roy Williams, I refuse to go any further. After all, he has received alot of unnecessary coverage, though I will say that he brought a certain amount of that on himself. There's alot to say for not opening your mouth very much. It saves a certain amount of trouble.

But when you do open your mouth, your can quickly become a very popular person. Especially when you play for Jerry Jones and The Dallas Cowboys.
