Of all the people to win this a Cards fans!!!

My company is the major beer sponser of the Cowpies in Dallas. Everyone knows I'm a Big Red fan & even used JJ's Super Bowl Tix in Tampa. I guess this was payback...after a company meeting the top performers of 2010 got to meet Jerry & Stephen Jones & all received a autographed helmet. Hate 'em hate 'em hate 'em!!!

Give me your ideas that best what I should do to it...burn it, make a cat box out of it, bounce it off the concrete, etc. I don't think it would look good in my Cards room :D

Sell it on the internet and affix a non-removable Cardinals logo to the unseen side of the helmet.

Contact a sports memorabilia store and ask them for a trade, your Cowboy signed helmet for some autographed Cardinals helmet. I'm sure you would have a lot of takers and chances are you could even get one autographed by Fitzgerald or Warner in exchange to please the demand of Cowboy fans. Places like that swap collectibles all the time

Well I can mount it under my camping toilet to carry Mr Jones to his final resting spot in the Arizona forest.

But honestly I would start a trade for Cardinals gear auction with it. See what kind of old NFCE Cardinal gear Cowpuke fans produce for a signed helmet. There might be some real gems out there? Stump Mitchell? Dierdorf?

Even a NFCE Shirt with the Cards on it like I have. give them till the next Cards game to make offers to save their precious helmet! get a picture of it in a guiateen or some stuff.

Now something with Tex Stramm or Tom Landry I might honor, But the Jones Cowboys are selfish and arrogant, and they only care about themself not the good of the NFL overall. Yea the 1 Billion stadium helps the NFL overall, but that was not the spirit behind building it.

One fans opinion.

Sale it on craigslist there in Dallas. Spend the proceeds on adding to your Cardinals room.

Or you could just fill it with Cardinal poop and mail it to Cowboy headquarters.

After some thought, I will tell you what I would do. I would go to Cowboy headquarters and return the helmet with a polite and direct statement saying that there are not that many people who like the Cowboys as you guys lead to believe and I hope it does not take you too long to find this helmet a home, signed a Cardinals fan. Yes, that is what I would do. If there was just a 5% chance Jones would hear about it, it would be worth the effort.

Look at it this way - you're keeping a Cowboys' fan from enjoying it. :thumbup:

Bucky. What on earth did you do to get that kind of karma? :p Steal cookies from blind Girl Scouts? Take money out of the collection plate at church? Kick Mother Theresa in the shins? What?

I agree sell it and make good use of the money. If you can fetch ~$1000 for it buy a couple of tickets to see a game and like someone else said get tickets for the boys and girls club.

You could always donate it to charity and take the tax write off

I camp alot so I personally would take a few dozen poops a year in it, my friends and family a few more dozen poops- invite my cousin cowpoop fans( without their knowledge) to poop in it.

Hell I would take my camp toilet to the Grand Canyon once a year and invite international tourist to continually poop in it, pour it out when it drips out the ear holes!

I would chalenge Mr Jones to win the Super Bowl- and I would retire the signed cowpie helmet! until then it would remain:

Quite poopular!
:mulli:






I with THESMEL on this.

Take a poop in it.

If I were you I would do a little research (maybe a children's hospital) and find a needy kid who really wants it. Think how happy you would have been as a kid if someone had given you something so meaningful.

Any monetary gain and hatred for the Cowboys would be offset tenfold by bringing joy to a youngster.

Above all remember that this is your gift and get some enjoyment out of.

Yeah, I like this approach. The one thing I wouldn't do is disrespect the Cowboys or Jerry Jones. Flip this and think how we'd feel if Bidwill and the Cards were treated as some here have suggested.

I like the idea for trading it to a sports memorabilia store for something Cardinals related. Another option is to sell it and use the money to come watch the Cardinals in Arizona. Or just use the money on yourself. You won something, so if you can sell it for a grand, just pretend you got a monetary bonus for your work instead of a signed helmet.
