Supporting Tony Romo for starter is not a very brave , unique, or interesting stance in the DFW sports world.

So what if Cowlishaw legitimatly agrees with the majority in this case you say? I say fine, but I'd like a track record of unpopular opinions in the past, to prove that he's not afraid to go against the grain, and frankly Cowlishaw doesn't have much of one that I recall.

I'll give you an example of PC that you (alledged) statheads should be familiar with in baseball, and actually should, theoretically, agree with me on. Pitching and defense. That's right, those factors are somehow, some way, seen as morally better than slugging home runs, in a majority, conventional wisdom kind of way.

Or I outlined it for Adam once in a way I'm sure he instantly got. Derek Jeter=politically correct.

Or another example, when all the hype over the PC Superman movie was going on, all the early reviews were glowing. Then basically Roger Ebert comes out and says it sucks. Goes against all the grain and what everybody wants to hear. That to me establishes a certain credibility. Ebert may be a flake that I rarely agree with, but I know he's not afraid to give his honest opinion in the face of overwhelming pressure such as over the supes movie. And that counts for something, and maybe it's part of why he's the most influential critic in America. Now, if the next PC movie comes along and Ebert loves it, I can trust that's his opinion because I know from supes he's not afraid to go anti-PC.
