The 50+ Die Hard Fan Club

[Slogriff1]

55 years but honestly wouldn't call myself 'Die Hard' anymore. I still watch most of the games but have no expectations whatsoever and haven't felt bothered by a loss in years. I absolutely Loathe Jerry and Stephen and don't even like very many of the current players. I guess you could say I've had it with the Clown Show Dallas is year after year.

I could have written this. Same number of years and sentiment. A few weeks back I informed my wife she was no longer to identify me as a Cowboy fan to others.

Lol, I should tell mine the same!

Just wanted to say that I really appreciated this thread (nice job JVB), It's actually makes being a Cowboy fan a little more tolerable when you hear from others that have seen the highs with Landry and Jimmy as well as endured the last 30 years of crap, I appreciate all the comments and likes as well. Hang in there guys!

If I recall correctly, things were getting pretty restless during Landry's final years as HC and many fans were wanting a change. The change we got was a blind-siding whopper. Was interesting years from 1986-1988, we sucked.

I never said every year was great but it was alot better than it is now. Jimmy also had a rough start but you saw progress every year.

I can't even remember back that far, but I was a fan since I was old enough to follow pro-football. It is over 60 years though.

The thing was back then the Cowboys were not on TV very much at all. Saw them play the Giants every year, and when they were in the playoffs. But living in New Jersey I did not get to see them play very often. I went to a few Dallas - Giants games at Yankee Stadium and the Yale Bowl before the Giants moved to NJ. That's about it.

I have a Super Bowl X program, from my dad with “Love, Dad”. This is my favorite Cowboy’s memorabilia I own. We did not see the game in person.

That’s also my favorite Cowboys season, 1975 “Dirty Dozen” year where we overachieved and became the first wild card team ever to reach the Super Bowl. That was also the Hail Mary playoff game miracle!

My dad passed in July, making that Super Bowl X program even more sentimental.

It was as my first season as a fan, and that made it special
Was crushed by their sb loss, but have since moved on lol

I was crushed too that we lost, but that pales in comparison to the pain of “The Catch”.

How about a Cowboys fund raiser where there is a dunking booth for Jerry and fans gets softballs to throw?

Shame on you. You know good and well folks will sneak in regulation baseballs.

Zero, but 50 points if you land a tonsils shot.

10 points, but those points can pile up fast if you have an auto-mag.

First games I watched was probably 1973 at age 4, so what is that? 53 years. I was a fan from the start. Back then, America's team was shown pretty frequently up here in TN...as frequently as our 3 channels showed football.
