A West Texas jury has awarded $146 million to the Dallas oil mogul T. Boone Pickens on Wednesday.

Pickens sued two Midland-based oil companies and Dallas-based J. Cleo Thompson, accusing that they cut his company out of a lucrative deal at the Red Bull region of the Permian Basin. The defendants had planned to appeal.

The Cowboys' nine-game win streak has been the longest in franchise history. Many among the Cowboys, have been clebrating on that. But Dallas Cowboys Hall of Famer Michael Irvin said that this winning streak was dangerous.

Irvin told 105.3 The Fan on Monday, that instead of a win, he had been looking for a loss truly on Tuesday. He needed a loss there on the way to the playoffs just to re-identify, and refocus.

The Cowboys had been staying away from any trash-talking this week ahead of the much-anticipated Thanksgiving game against the Redskins.

After being asked for his initial thoughts on the rivalry, the rookie responded on tueasday , "Oh, I already know. I know nobody here likes the Dallas Cowgirls."
