Yeah, obviously. We have been losers 8 out of the last 9 times we took the field. You think 5-0 or 4-1 are that likely, considering we couldn't score a touchdown against the Bucs?

As a matter of fact, yes!
You should change your signature image... you obviously do not still believe.

The whole thing depends on what happens Monday night. If the skins manage to win and by that put back-to-back wins (something they couldn't do all year), then it's over cause they gonna win the NFCE . if we win then it's ALL for the taking untill last week or two of the season

:cool:

I don't understand why people are legitimately mad/upset with 88Irvins optimism. It's as if you want him to be as negative as you are. He's entitled to have his opinion without people scolding him.

He's right to an extent. For some people to be so upset with his positivity makes me wonder how life outside of this forum is treating some people.

LOL. I don't think anyone has suggested that the team IS GOING to tank on purpose.

I think what people said is that it might be better long term if they do lose out.

I don't think any fan wishes for the boys to lose I just don't think this team and coaches from stopping it from happening. This truly the lowpoint of the dallas cowboys franchise the last twenty years have been really bad but this year its just about as bad as it gets reminds me of 89 and there is no really good coach waiting in the wings to get u s out of it . This franchise is mired in losers mentality


What scares me is, everybody will blame the injuries......and gloss over this 4 or 5 win season , thinking we have a shot next year,

Which we very well might. Easier schedule, top 5- 10 draft choice, maybe better luck with injuries, and we could be a force to deal with.

My disapppiont is, that isnt the norm. A good franchise/organization, overcome these things like bad luck and injuries, bad timing, and bad bounces; They stumble here and there, and even have some off seasons. But, they get right back up there real quick. In contention , playing in the playoffs.....

We are not that franchise. And thats what I want it to be......

Im thinking , the bottom fell out this year, and it wont be seen for what it is, becuase of the injuries.... ..I am not beating up JG...I like JG, but I dont say a word too or about the guys who are calling for his job. They have a very strong argument. And even JG knows that.

What does being upset at homers have to do with being upset with life outside of this forum? Where is the correlation? I see lots of people using this flawed logic and it just doesn't make sense. People get upset with others when they are not being rational. He has a right to be irrational but others have a right to call him out for being irrational, and it has no impact on how they live their lives outside of this forum. Does this make sense?

or 4-1... either should get us in. We will own the division tiebreakers by sweeping the Skins


I would be right with ya, if Romo hadnt of got hurt. And even though I think Cassel is an above avegage Backup growing into this position......I think we will be lucky to win 2

If we make the playoffs I will put " I bow to Michael88Irvin insight and fandom" in my sig and give the zone a donation!!! I probably need to anyway, as much as I use it....

Why can't you just ignore his posts then? Why do you have to call him out on his optimism? Is that gonna make you feel better because I'm really not getting the logic here of people being upset at some who still have hope and optimism. Just ignore them and move on. No one's making you comment on his thread or posts if his logic is bothering you that much.

Because he's just not being optimistic, he's also attacking others who are down on this team as not being "true fans" and that we have "loser mentalities" so if you're going to use those kind of terms for people who are being objective, then prepare for backlash for your blind sunshine pumping.

Giants remaining schedule 2-3, 7-9 (8-8 at best if they luck out a win over Jets):
L - Jets
W- Dolphins
L - Panthers
L - Vikings
W - Eagles

Commanders remaining schedule 1-4, 6-10 (or if they pull out a win vs. Bears or Bills, 2-3, 7-9):
L - Cowboys
L - Bears
L - Bills
W - Eagles
L - Cowboys

Eagles remaining schedule 0-5, 4-12 (non-factor, even if they luck out 2 wins, they suck):
L - Patriots
L - Bills
L - Cardinals
L - Commanders
L - Giants

Cowboys remaining schedule 4-1 (possibly 5-0), 7-9 / 8-8:
W - Commanders
L - Packers (possibly W, as they are on a 1-4 kick)
W - Jets -
W - Bills
W - Commanders

7-9 tie = we win (with 4-2 division record),
or 8-8 tie = we win (with 4-2 division record)
or 8-8 = win outright

This outcome is VERY feasible and is exactly what Sean Lee and the players are thinking right now.

NEVER Give Up!!

You are famous! Your post has provided some fodder over at the awful Extreme Skins sight (post #51). Their thread is started by celebrating Romo's injury by showing him on the ground several times. What say you SkinsHokieFan.

That seems to be the double standard. It's OK to go after posters being critical of the team. Not the same for posts supporting the team, even with nothing tangible backing them up.

Man, Sk*ns fans never change. You'd think the years of living in the basement would make them cautious, but get to 5-6 and they pop right back up like so many smiling children. It's crazy.
