Telling me I want Parsons to suck when I've never said that isn't nice. I've never said likable equals good either or accused others of saying that, yet here you are suggesting I'm saying that too. Twisting my words is a messed-up thing to do. So why bother talking to you anymore? BYE.

You take offense to someone misrepresenting you, yet your original post that everyone is reacting to, was you assigning a perception of some sort of simple minded naïveté to every cowboy fan who was excited about our first round draft pick.

The sheer audacity of fans being excited by such a thing. Were all just simple minded fools, tricked by the Cowboys front office into actually being happy about our top pick.

Well, forgive us if we don’t cry for you, now that you are playing the victim card.

You can take your false pretense of offended innocence and save it for someone who cares.

You are apparently, at best, a half hearted fan, so the exit is thataway. Plenty of posts actually created by people like you, for people like you.

Just look for the ones that have “Dak”, “Zeke”, or “Demarcus” in the title and you have a 50/50 shot of finding others who don’t really like the team.

This thread is not one of those.

I've been meaning to ask you:
You just a Bruce Lee guy, or are you a kung "foo" aficionado?

I've been looking for some good, obscure kung "foo" movies.

I use "foo" because ** is... well you see it.

just type it as kungfu. you're too smart for your own good

You all are so eager to like Parsons before he has played a single down of football as a Cowboy. Why does this matter? If he doesn't play well are you going to give a pass to your new best friend Micah? All I care about is if he can play his position well and contribute to the team winning. I couldn't care less about this rookie's interviews and how likeable he is at this point as a person. If he does his job well, I will like him. Why any of you entertain all this other nonsense before he has established himself as a real contributor is beyond me. Give me interviews of Dak or Zeke or Zack, not the rookies.

it's just a bonus. obviously everyone is hoping he'll be great. if he's great and likeable that's pretty awesome, and it's all we have thus far.

He's such an easy guy to root for. Everyone is impressed w him after they meet him, it appears. Hopefully he can be a difference maker for us on the field. We absolutely need it.

Are you a bbbbbbbbbb-ot?

There is a 2 season series on HBOMAXX called Warrior. Bruce Lee wrote it.

More misrepresentation of what I said. But whatever, Its what I've come to expect from most of you.

Pump the breaks on Parsons you people. I'm not saying he won't be a good contributor to this team but let him actually do it before you give him all this praise. I welcome him to the team as well but I'm not going to treat him any different than any other rookie we have today.. and lord knows we have a huge lot of them right now. I don't think he's ready for all these high expectations being placed on him.

You need to read what you write on all your rants before you play victim here. Also I said “you sound like you want him to suck which is weird.” It was a statement regarding what “seemed” to be happening. Here is your post from page one...how am I supposed to interpret this?

“So you'll be giving him a pass when he sucks because he's your "friend", gotcha. :rolleyes:

Words have meaning.

Bye

All I've heard is that he is an off-the-field risk. It's refreshing and encouraging to hear him and not the pundits. It's not just that he seems likeable, he also seems knowledgeable. He spoke about the things he learned as a new LB..off the ball.

So why so eager? I'm a fan and I am interested in our new players. Me "liking" a player or players is far less confounding as to why you care if it matters to other people. If it doesn't matter to you, why bother opening a thread about a rookie's interview?

You hear him talk and like it? Talk is cheap. I'd rather be shown what he's about rather than told. If it were just a few of you prematurely buying into this guy it wouldn't bother me so much but it seems to be much worse than that. Cowboys fans everywhere are just setting themselves up for disappointment with this guy. That's just what I see. You think I shouldn't speak about it? Sorry, I can't be silent about this.

Yes, I heard him talk and I liked what he had to say. Why is that difficult to understand? Seriously? Why is that hard for you to comprehend? I heard a bunch of negative stuff before the draft. I listen to him speak and he doesn't come across as how he was portrayed. I'm encouraged by that.

As far as setting myself up for disappointment goes, I promiss you that you don't need to protect me from myself. I can take it. If I root for this kid and he doesn't pan out, I'll be OK.

“You’re all so eager to like someone. Why aren’t you eager to hate people like me?!?”
