I was watching the Cowboys game last weekend and saw Jesse Holly catch a pass from Tony Romo. Jesse Holly? You mean the dude that won Michael Irvin's reality show is still with the Cowboys? That was a couple of years ago, I guess somebody forgot to tell Holly that dreams don't come true. Many people define luck as the place where preparation meets opportunity. If that's true then Jesse Holly is the luckiest man in the world.
Lets be real, the show Fourth and Long was not designed to find the Cowboys a receiver or corner back. That show was designed to get Michael Irvin some notoriety and money. The winner is a mere afterthought, as with every reality show. All one million of them. But not Jesse Holly, only a spot in training camp was guaranteed. Yeah, ok the first season I thought he made the practice squad to save face for the show. But now? This is the nfl we're talking about and Jerry Jones is serious about winning so Holly must be good. Think of the wide receivers that left Dallas since Holly came on board: Roy Williams, Sam Hurd, Patrick Crayton, and Terrell Owens. Kevin Ogletree better step his game up. How can you not root for a guy like Holly? I saw him return a punt for a touchdown last year for goodness sake. This guy will not go away. Keep living that dream Jesse.
