Anyone else excited about this weekend?

I'm okay with moving Carr to Safety. It's not ideal; but it is putting your best 11 players on the field.

i will go absolutely crazy if we win though.

wouldn't that be amazing. Can't remember a game i went into where i thought we didn't have a chance. it's bizarre. I have absolutely 0 expectations of winning though.

one of the few absolute things that i can say is positive about growing older.

wisdom
better with finances

not letting the cowboys get to you as much as they did in my younger years





i can not begin to describe the emotional rollercoaster i've rode in 37 years of being a fan.

i've finally reached the age where i can just sit back and hope for the best.

the new stadium has alot to do with that..

i know texas stadium was old and needed repair and all.

but when they demolished that place that i grew up watching my only team ever play in...all those memories.

a part of me died.

but i will watch my team till i'm gone though.i will never turn my back.

I'm still waiting on a lot of Garrett/Jerry supporters to come out and say simply one thing negative about them.

Same way I'm waiting on a lot of 'realists' to come out and say something positive about the way the team is going.

Because it's not all bad, we're 2-2, anyone can get hot in this league, and once you get in the playoffs anything can happen.

I've seen average teams make deep runs in the playoffs, we're not out there getting dominatd every week with no hope. In most cases, Dallas is shooting themselves in the foot, losing the games more often than teams are just flat out beating us.

[View Full Quote]I don't care how you post, but just as time goes on, whether you're extremely positive or negative - it gets old and predictable and you're incapable of having any sense of a discussion with people. Hence why everything turns into pissing matches. It's okay to be in the middle on some things. Takes away from the overall quality of the discussions with such a polarized board.

Live and let live. If we are being honest, none of us are here for the edification of our fellow man. We are here for what is in it for ourselves. It's a place where we can speak our mind about the team we love. How we express it, negative or positive, does not matter because at the end of the day, it is our therapy. Just be happy we have a place like this where are opinion's cannot be censored.

The Saints, Giants and Colts two years ago when Jason Garrett took over midseason.

That was when the Cowboys playoff hopes were over. No surprise they ended up having one of their better Decembers that season. They were able to go out play loose and throw caution to the wind.

It's when the Cowboys have a playoff birth on the line that the pressure gets to them and they begin to fold. They should pretend this season is over and maybe they'll start playing better.

just another solid post.



what can i say?

you are a great poster.

it's been awhile since i literally had zero confidence we'd win a specific game. that's how i feel this week going into baltimore. i'm sorry but good teams don't lose to the bears in that fashion at home on primetime. that was a big eye opener for me (moreso than the seahawks game). oline played a little better but there were still no running lanes at all. the ravens are already aggressive as is, they can take it to another level when they know you are one dimensional.

people on this board are pathetic. period.
you're not excited for football?
are you joking?

But here is the deal, for me anyway, I said I see a change in this team. I feel this team is meant to do something great, this year. That starts Sunday. The team as had it's butt handed to it 2 out of the last 3 games. If they have any heart at all, they man up and come out and take it to the Ravens. I think they have heart. I think they have some fight in them. I think they will take it to the Ravens.

Fire away, bash away, whatever you feel like you need to do. I will be in front of that TV on Sunday, expecting (not wishing, not hoping they prove me wrong or whatever the catch phrase is today) a win by MY Boys! The next 5 games will define this team and season.. I say we go 4-1 and have a 6-3 record when its all said and done.

Sunday's Score: Cowboys 24 Ravens 10.

To borrow a saying: Book IT!

We have been blown out in 2 of our last 3 games, so I am not really expecting alot this weekend against the Ravens.

I used to get all nervous before games and get pissed if we lost. I punched a hole in the sheetrock when Romo botched the snap in the Seattle playoff game.

Nowdays, a loss really doesnt bother me. After the Chicago game, all I could do was just laugh about with some friends. I guess at some point you have seen the Cowboys lose a game just about every way possible and it really doesnt affect you any more.
