What's with the ''we''

[CalPolyTechnique]

not wishin YOU death, just your dusty arse way of thinkin......

Wearing another man's name on a jersey is forward thinking? That's as old as sports.

You are a fan and nothing else and not a tooting thing wrong with that.

Thats a relief. I'll sleep better tonight.

Surprised this wasn't a thread full of "me and your mom"' jokes.

I see post every day, here and every where else that includes the statement, well ''we'' should do this ''we'' should do this. I mean don't get me wrong I am a fan and claim and proclaim my fandom as much as the next. It's just weird to see people acting like they play or work for a certain team. You are a fan and nothing else and not a tooting thing wrong with that. It's not your money writing the contracts or your hind end on the line for signing said player. Just step away, take a breath and let someone else to ''their job''. So instead of WE, how about, they, the cowboys, the team.

Being a literal person, I would normally agree with you but cannot. @Risen Star got it right in this thread. Our common allegiance, professional and nonprofessional, are what identifies and defines us. Now, I am in agreement with you if your underlying disagreement is with the very common fallacy of people presenting opinion as fact. Otherwise, I believe your ultra-literal interpretation of 'we' may be too narrow a perspective.

By golly gee, WE better win the Super Bowl next season!

We Be Cowboys Nation.

 

[lostar2009]

Oh stop. We. As in the Cowboys. Team and fan base. One and the same. It's all Cowboys Nation.

Can't explain it to dummies. If someone never used the "we" in referring to a team they are not truly invested.

It should be , would be more entertaining

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

This whole thread is entirely too funny.......

 

[chagus]

WE because it's MY team. Plain and simple

 

[bonafidebanter]

AND I'm still using WE when talking about my Cowboys!

 

[Supercowboy1986]

OP.

I have Tom Landry tattooed on my arm (not kidding). Do I need to go get it lasered off since it's the face of another man on my body?

Do you really? Do you have a pic?

Or just take a step away, take a deep breath and know this isn't philosophy class 101. Football is entertainment. Fans just showing how they identify with the teams they love.

 

[Cowboys_22]

Oui the Cowboys are My team and We are the Cowboys Nation

 

[casmith07]

This thread is hilarious!

I like when a man wears another mans jersey in the presence of another man
