"As he watched the [national championship] game, [Butler Coach Brad] Stevens was again taken not only by how hard the players competed but how properly -- no showboating, no trash-talking, no whining to the officials."

Showboating cost the Cowboys a football game today. They scored the tying touchdown and Jason Witten handed the ball to a lineman who then spiked the ball, which is a fifteen yard penalty when more than one player is involved in such an incident. Subsequently the Cowboys had to kick off fifteen yards further back, it enabled the Titans to run the kick back a long way; they scored the winning touchdown a few plays later. Shows how discipline is needed to have a winning program. The Cowboys obviously don't have it.
