Just done with Football

[GroundZero1970]

Well guys I have been on this forum as a poster for awhile now and lurked before that. I enjoyed talking with you guys but I am done with the Boys and more importantly done with the NFL. Take care and good health to all but I'm done. God Bless

I keep holding out hope that one of these times will be different. But they never are. It’s so deflating and defeating. Like, why the hell do we waste ~20 Sundays a year watching a team that’s never going to do anything when it matters?

 

[Maverick84]

I can’t become a fan of another team.

why not? you live in California and somehow you're a fan of a team halfway across one of the biggest countries in the world

 

[OGCowboy]

Not me...I’m gonna gravytrain Joe Burrow and Cincy....
Love my cowboys since the beginning but I gotta step away a while from the clown show this franchise has become

 

[aikemirv]

Came in with low expectations with Dak so not that big of a letdown

 

[Mk2_Cowboys]

yeah i am
almost done also

 

[fifaguy]

Ahhh the classic I'm done with football thread post playoff loss. Can't say I blame you though.

 

[ghst187]

Just Trade Dak for Russel Wilson.

sadly no way they are taking that contract, stuck with Zeke too and he’s done but we over committed big money

I think I’m done. It’s just too much, year in and year out. There’s no fun in it anymore. I can’t become a fan of another team, but this team YEAR AFTER YEAR fails. It’s tiring. It’s just not worth it. Constant failure. Doesn’t matter if you believe it’s the refs, ownership, coaching, players, whatever. Just consistent, constant failure. It’s like being a fan of the Lions. Except worse because the team hypes up our expectations during the regular season (which we shouldn’t fall for anymore).

I feel the exact same way. 25+ years of this. I'm tired of it. I'm exhausted. I can't keep defending this team when they're clearly never gonna win. I wish I could have my memory erased and forget I was a Cowboys fan. Head injury anyone?

 

[Risen Star]

The challenge at the end of every season and especially after a playoff loss is to not say something stupid.

 

[Jake]

I have, and will, continue to stick with the Cowboys because I'l too old to change and I have successfully lowered my expectations.

I'm not even upset about the loss. I kind of suspected it. No one should be shocked after seeing this team flop in the playoffs time and again.

 

[FVSTONE]

Terrible ending.

But we didn’t deserve to win with 14 penalties.

The official hurt us twice today though. He should be booted from the playoffs as well.

Why is everyone whining about penalties????? The same players have been committing them the whole dam year. It starts with coaching and if the coach can't clean it up then goodbye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This club is great against mediocre teams and suck against the TRUE PLAYOFF TEAMS in the league. It's not going to change.....................

 

[bewp7]

i dont blame u!

every one here invest a lot into cowboys and they crap the bed every time

there is also no reason to have any hope until dak and his contract is gone so i think u have the right idea!!!!!!

There is only one constant here in Dallas. It's not the players or refs, they come and go.

 

[BobSacamano]

Alright, Beta. Just don’t let Chad steal your crush on your way out the door.

 

[Aviano90]

The team was never a championshop contender. They were over-achievers. Not sure why anyone is “quitting” the team after getting punched in the jaw by a puncher.

I would join you but I get bored. Ah..I need a hobby, besides playing skin flute.

 

[Lutonio]

I’ve been with my now wife since we first started dating 10 years ago. She told me I’m a happier person when when football isn’t a thing.

I told the pretty lady she ain’t wrong.

 

[OriginalNameGuy]

I think a lot of people are there with you. "White out" was never going to happen with a jaded fan base

 

[Whyjerry]

Can't blame you, I have done this in other sports and never watched again.

I did it with the Knicks. It’s possible.
