You know that incredibly giddy feeling you get when, in what seems to be the result of utter happenstance, you stumble upon a bit of loose cash or coinage in previously worn clothes? It’s like winning free money, and although nothing new was actually added to your lump sum, it sure feels like it to your brain. That’s because you had no previous knowledge of the jewels that were hiding unbeknownst in your back pockets.
Yet there they remained the entire time – stagnant, dormant, just waiting to be unearthed.
Such is the case with the Dallas Cowboys and their recent exhumation of high-caliber running back Tony Pollard.
