And I mean nothing....the last 2 weeks have totally gutted me. Its why I no longer have the first 6 games of our schedule (Home & Away) memorized before the season starts...its why I haven't worn any Cowboy cap or clothing in years....its why despite living 40 miles from AT&T Stadium, I wouldn't attend a game if Boogers Strip Club Bus picked me up at my front door. It's also why despite not being a huge baseball fan, my Dodgers have jumped the Cowboys in garnering my utmost devotion....sure they have more money than anyone....I get that.....but they are ALL ABOUT WINNING. I cannot think of ONE positive thing right now to get excited about....in two weeks, we've been caught by several teams and lapped by others. Next year is gonna be a disaster of major proportions....get ready. If you think that I'm way off base, I'd love to hear why. I never in a million years thought my Cowboys would take second place to any of my other sports teams...but it has happened. Am I alone?

No. There are TONS of miserable people out there. I’m just not one of them. Things could always be worse.

Meh, it's been a terrible off-season, but I'm not upset about the players we lost. I'm more upset about the players we didn't get to replace those guys.

To be optimistic, we made a bunch of nice signings, and we have cap space. Let's see where it goes....

I'd love to believe they have a plan, although it seems unlikely at this point.

Meh....at SOME point they will realize that fixing only last year's problem isn't good enough.

Won't they??

Still waiting on an answer as far as creating dead money later for unused cap space now is a valid strategy but not holding my breath.

I’m to the point where I want to say things I usually wouldn’t say because I believe in bad karma. I hate Jerry and Stephen Jones.

I get the anger cuz I am silently in agreement. Any hope we have right now based on our talent is really just hope that everyone else fails at that right moment to where we score just enough and win enough to make it far enough.

I don't see how subtraction from what we had last year without adding doesn't give much hope.

But are we surprised really? Team does this every single year and they give same excuse every time. "We like our guys" even if they don't say it exactly like that.

Cap space for who? More JAG's??? The only reason we signed Anger is to make the most out of failed Duk Pratfall drives.
