Crouching Dallas

CROUCHING DALLAS!
Look at him go!

Welcome to Crouching Dallas!

I started this site because there's something about the way Dallas crouches that absolutely entertains and amuses me. I told my wife and she said, "My parents also love 'the crouch'". If you think it's funny too, take a picture of Dallas crouching and send it to me so I can share Crouching Dallas with all the world.

So.....I was celebrating my friends upcoming wedding with a bunch of friends at a nice restaurant in The Valley, when who do I see in the corner of the room? Danny Romero (a formidable croucher himself) having breakfast. Of course I go over and introduce myself and found myself in a conversation with a really nice guy. I spoke with him about Dallas and, of course, the Crouch, and he said that you just get so into what your doing, that you just start doing it! That's what I call passion for your job!

So.....a few weeks later I get a nice email from Crouching Dallas himself. What about?

The weather of course!

He must have talked to Danny.
