Some fans here rooting for a loss?

[Verdict]

It's amazing to me that some posters here will be rooting for a cowboys loss tomorrow (either secretly or expressly). I don't get how anyone who falls into that category is a real Cowboys fan when you know Jason Garrett isn't going anywhere.

Those morons aren't worth starting a thread over. Screw them.

And some fans are perceptive enough to see it.

I want linehan gone more than Garrett at this point, although i do want both gone.

But i'd never root for a playoff game loss for that to happen. If a super bowl means keeping both, so be it.

If we do lose, i do hope its a blowout that gets some people (moore, linehan) fired, though.

 

[Don Corleone]

They are stuck in the 1990s and the associated perception of what to takes to win a Super Bowl.

Blasphemy! Membership bans are in order!

Well I'm in deeper than Pete Carrol with the wrong play at the goalline in the SB.

I cant root for a loss now.

I have them ALL weeded out. They're very popular on my "ignore" option.

What is the mindset to root for a playoff loss? I don't think I have ever rooted for a loss. I have taken some playoff losses much harder than others, but never did I actually hope they'd lose. That's not even possible. Even in my weekly bets with my friends I don't always get the chance to pick the Cowboys, and I still root for them to win knowing I am losing money.

I wonder how much lower we can get here with some of these posters.....

Who would root for a loss in the playoffs? You root for a loss when your season is over and you're hoping for a better draft pick and/or coaching change. Our season isn't over. We're in the playoffs.

You’re one of them.

You never root for a loss period. Only losers do that.

 

[ShortRound]

I'm excited. Hope we string together some wins.

And some fans are perceptive enough to see it.

Just because someone cheers for winning like a normal person, doesn’t mean they’re oblivious. Just because a fan isn’t consistently negative, doesn’t mean he/she is clueless about football.

The Eeyores expect to dish whatever while normal fans stay silent? Right.

If you want the Cowboys to lose this week you want Linehan to replace Will McClay just sayin

 

[fredp22]

I havent heard of anyone rooting for a loss. Win or lose a lot of us (me included) would like to see Garrett replaced but I think 99% of the fans would like/enjoy seeing us get somewhere in the playoffs.

They want Garrett gone so bad they’ll accept ANYTHING that will accomplish that. Sounds like the Bill Maher Syndrome...

 

[Mr_437]

I've seen no such validity to this claim. We have no time for this anyway. Tell me how DAL is going to body the Seahawks.

 

[ShortRound]

I think everyone wants to win, I think those few absolutely hate and blame Garrett/Jones/Linehan for such a long playoff drought. I don't blame them.

But it's just as not healthy to point fingers or create call-out thread however, just win and see what happens. I don't understand this "calling-out" habit we have here.
