lol I can't believe you made a thread like this lol...why do you even care if someone calls you a hater online lol?
I personally don't care if I'm called a hater.

I do hate to see the level of discourse constantly reduced to a peeing contest simply because someone disagrees with another's assessment. It reduces the forum to a kindergarten mentality and I guarantee it drives good, knowledgeable posters away.

I've been an avid reader here for 12 or so years and it is as bad as its ever been in my opinion.

If this thread gets anyone to rethink the attitude they bring here then it's a good topic and a good thread.

We bash our players and team. Non cowboy fans are looking at us like we are crazy. We are doing their job for them. They are now unemployed. Can we please hand the jobs back over to them please.

The real problem here is a poster that named himself NotForLong has a hard time coming to grips with the reality that players get replaced.

That was debated on a lot of pre game shows, even Jimmy weighed in on it saying he would stay with the hot hand in Dak that season. Add to that Dak played an outstanding game vs GB hitting 63% for 302 and 3 TD's. It was not as if Dak play hurt the Cowboys. Not saying others who had a different view point was wrong or right but I don't think in the end the Cowboys were wrong for staying with the hot hand in Dak and his play proved that
I agree but knew they would get second guessed if the outcome was not good. It's not like Dak replaced him for a couple of games and kept his seat warm, he played the entire season.

That game just like the last playoff loss to GB was, on the defense. Would Romo have been any better down 21-3? Although I would add that the coaching staff aided in GB getting out to that lead, very poor job of having a team playoff ready and were too slow in making tactical adjustments once they realized their strategy was poor compared to GB's.

The refs helped tremendously as well.

Calling a poster boring and rude isn't corny, if one's eyes are open...Homie wana'be...and try this on for size: See A Recruiter, and YOU grow up!
You are upset and aggravated that I dont like this QB, so you turn to personal insults. Like I said, grow up. Your act is corny

Stop with the Labeling already.

If I state right now that the Cowboys should have played Romo in 2016.

The 1st thing that is gonna pop in your brain is that I Am A Dak Hater.

If I say that Dak may have had a hand in the downfall of the receiving stats of the receiving corp as a whole.

The 1st thing that is gonna pop in your brain is that I Am A Dak Hater.

If I tell you that I like his intangibles that it is obvious that he is a natural leader on the field.
If I tell you I see a bright future for the Cowboys and I am very excited to watch the progress of Dak.

What's the 1st thing that is gonna pop in your head?

Confusion

You can't phantom that the same person can be so diverse in his thinking. In your silly small world everything is black and white. Either or Or.

You know what your reactionary thinking and labeling does it puts you at WAR with those you perceive as on the other side. You then attack and force your inflicted opponent to defend himself. Often said opponent is left dipping and dodging names and preconceived labels. But always in the end you pat yourself on the back for a job well done.

The mysticism of Romo, it's crazy for some fans. Romosexual, Dak Hater, if you defend Dez your Dak Hater, If you pushed for Romo your Dak Hater,. If you say at this point in his carear he needs a lot of work Dak Hater, and his accuracy is not on par with other NFL Qbs you are a Dak Hater,

This all stems from 2016 Daks ROOKIE YEAR.
Romo's final. During that year there were many here who were so perplexed and frustrated that this team didn't go back to The VETERAN and not only any veteran but 1 of the most intelligent, uber competitive, QB 's to ever play the game. Many Fans were so delighted that this team was so talented that we were able to win with a rookie behind center.

At the same time we were ectatic that we had such a bright future in Dak. But for the life of us we couldn't understand why Romo was on the sidelines. We thought we were trying to win a Super Bowl.

But all the other fans were drinking the Kool Aid. You were high on Dak and never wanted to come down. You threw Tony under the bus.
You said he was over rated crippled can't play any more washed up, the team can't stop the momentum. Dak gives us a better chance.

All the time we argued. That there was no chance in hell that any rookie would improve the chances of the Cowboys to win a Super Bowl over Romo point blank. Including the Rookie winning with this amazing team that was built for Romo.

That's when the labeling began. You wanted to drown out the obvious truth. (You loved the pedastel the national media put Dak on and you never wanted him to come off it.) In order to drown out the truth. You labeled us Romosexuals and Dak Haters.

Now that narrative carried over to last year and this off season. Except now if you defended Dez you hate Dak and always have. We just want to see Dak fail. Dez has gone through a very precarious situation.

It's been over a 2 and a half year timeline. Injuries and QB play have been the major contributing factors (but if I say that I some how hate Dak) but if they were the only factors it would be easy to still love Dez.

Except that all that frustration culminated in Dez playing at his worse at the worse possible time. Seattle. We all saw it we all know what happened. He single handedly ended any possible chances of the Cowboys advancing to playoffs.

Many here claim that IS who Dez is. A washed up WR. National Media ran with the narrative and the frustrated Parrots parroted it.

So to sum it up:

There are fans who went "All in" with Dak in 2016. Because of this stance you took you have defended it to the death and anyone else who points out this flawed thinking is labeled a Dak Hater which is untrue and unfair.

You threw Tony under the bus then and you threw Dez under the bus now. You have been unloyal and desecrated the legacy of two of the greatest Cowboys ever to wear the star (but I am a hater.) For no other reason but to defend Dak and the foolish belief he was gonna lead us to a Super Bowl his rookie year.

Well it didn' happen but you all said that Tony was a walking cripple that never won anything (and I am a hater)

Dak struggled with injuries to his offensive line and not having a RB ( Many things Tony played with his whole carear but he was overrated"). Dak struggled with reading defenses and accuracy and you all say that Dez is washed up and has always been a Cancer.( and I am the Hater)

No, those of you who threw those two under the bus are not "Supporters" or those who think so much about the team that you put the team 1st. Ahead of players.

No you are disloyal people who are quick to desecrate your biggest stars who have given there heart and soul to this team. All for the love of Dak
There is/was a chance. That a rookie was more equipped.

While I agree w/ your statement in general, you made one of those black and white statements that you are dissing.

It was a tough decision at the time to know if it was better to stay w/ what was working or go w/ the old and injured. There is no way for you or I to know if the right decision was made.

Well that's a fair point. I was actually talking about the first 2 starting seasons. Dak did very well in that regard and in fact did things both Romo or no other Dallas QB has done.
That's something to be excited about.
Actually, Dak did things his rookie year almost NO QB in NFL history did. Dak’s struggles his second year were nothing compared to the O lines struggles, Dez’s struggles beating man, and especially Garrett’s struggles coaching( basic predictable passing schemes game after game, and the fiasco in Atlanta where he decided to let Dak get hit like a punching bag, instead of chipping for him).With improved line play and especially coaching Dak will excell this year.

You will always be second guessed if you lose. Romo in 2014 put up 191 yards and 2 TD vs GB. Had Romo played in 2016 game and Dallas lost they would be second guess on that as well, replacing a QB who had lead the team to a great season then to hand it over to a QB who had not had great playoff success. I don't say that to be mean to Romo, Hell I loved having him on the team but just pointing out that even had Romo played that game it assured the Cowboys of nothing. I hate going back and playing the what "if" game because there is no assurance of anything all I can go by is what happened and how did Dak play which again if my QB put up 303 passing yards with 3 TD passes as well as 31 points I have a hard time *****ing about the Cowboys choice of staying with Dak

Romo was light years ahead of Dak in football intelligence as a veteran and should have been given the chance in 2016 when he was healthy. He played good in playoffs in 2014 (Dez Drop vs GB)..our defense had Mincey and Selvie at DE. How easily we forget.
How easily we forget. Romo made one of the biggest bone head plays in the 2014 playoff game vs GB. He looked away in shotgun formation, WHILE the ball was in the air, which caused him to fumble the ball on a 3rd and 1. The next play Bailey had a long FG blocked. These 2 plays gave the momentum back to GB. I have never seen a QB look away like that WHILE the ball was in the air. That was not an intelligent football play!!

This is life. People are more opinionated now than they were 12 years ago. People have changed from what they were 12 years ago. Society has changed. This thread will not change that. I'm a Dak fan and I've been called "Dak Slobberer" by a few morons on this site. Doesn't bother me because 1) We live in a trolling society where trolls are celebrated, 2). Everyone posts anonymous and says outlandish stuff knowing theirs no repercussions and they don't have to take accountability for saying stupid stuff and 3) Most morons that even use that term are guys who have agendas. Either hate Dak for whatever reason or haven't let Romo go.

IF anything this site is a representation of how we are as a society. Not a representation of what this site has become.

Pretty graphic.
I have to question the type of person who would even use such language. You assume everyone here are adults but you forget that some of these guys could be 13 year olds.

Of course he had more football intelligence he was in the league for 12 years at that point. Fact is Romo never threw for 300 yards and 3 tds in a playoff game. Like I said unless Romo was gonna be a ref or take byron jones' spot for that one play it would have made a bigger difference in the game.

Romo was 19-of-31 for 293 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions against a very good Lions defense and it was a comeback victory.

Prescott played against a horrific Packers defense which literally had guys off the street in their Secondary due to injuries - how many points did the Falcons put on that same Packers defense the week after?

There is no comparison between the two defenses each QB faced in those games alone.

They just ignore the fact that the Packers defense that year was miles and miles worse than any defense Romo played in the playoffs while acting as if it was the same.

True then again you can play what if all day fact is Dak did not cost Dallas the game and there was no assurance had Romo played that Dallas would have won. No doubt it is great playing what if because the outcome is also pre determined by those playing what if. Fact is Dak played a great game vs the packers in the playoffs. What did Dallas in was a 3rd and 20 where Rogers hits his man for 30 yards, that should never have happened and nothing any QB could have done about it.

Forget it pal. I made this point for years with Romo. If I take an objective posture on Romo's game, and he fails, I am a hater. That was essentially the way it was.

You will not convince anyone that is a belittling term. Much like the monumentally stupid term butthurt. It's an acceptable slur.
