Sad Fan Zone

[America's Cowboy]

Yes, every fan has a right to complain, whine, attack players and coaches, and express his or her displeasure, but I find it sad when I have to go to the news zone to read anything about the Eagles game.
It’s one thing to be unhappy for a couple of days after a loss, but as the weekend approaches, the Fan Zone is nothing more than the Drama Zone.

I’ll express my gratitude now for the genius posts that remind me I don’t have to visit Cowboys zone. Thank You!

It’s just sad that a couple days before the Eagles come to town, all the threads are about everything but the game. I’ve seen 5-11 seasons when fans still cared about the upcoming game.

Preach!!!

Actual lol.

You want drama, an unknown Eagles player took a direct shot at Wentz on the local radio station saying that Wentz takes too many chances downfield and not enough safe throws.

 

[yimyammer]

Actual lol.

those commercials crack me up

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

Well it took 23 years but I do believe apathy has started to set in.

We used to have a rule on the old forum, the crying was over by Tuesday, Wednesday was onto the next game and that worked pretty well but some are still pissed and some are just showing up after having their stomachs pumped at the ER.

Randy Galloway's radio show during the season is overreaction Monday. It's not just this forum or other ones, it's within the Cowboys Nation. All of the drama, hand wringing, wailing at the wall and gnashing of teeth, you'd think we all had sons playing for the team. Hell, if only the coaches and players were as invested as we are.

If you're really disgusted...give up Chuck.

and yet, here you are, creating a thread whining and complaining about others whining and complaining. You could instead have created a meaningful thread about the game

 

[TheSkaven]

The dynamic is understandable. Look, we’re all fans, we all live and die with the team. But we haven’t been to an NFC Championship Game since 1995 and fans are tired of being let down.

If want some good news today, however, both Tyrone Smith and La’El Collins are practicing and Cooper has a good shot to play as well. If the Cowboys win, especially if they win big, it’ll be a different place here on Monday morning.

The vast majority of this board is hoping we lose and Garrett gets fired during the bye...………..what else you want to discuss?

Feel free to create whatever type of thread to talk about whatever you would like.


But don't "complain, whine and attack" what other people want to talk about.

Speaking of making threads, would you mind creating a 2019 version of this one-

Was a fun thread and seemed to bring us good luck last year when we were in a similar situation!!

 

[DogFace]

I’m as down as anyone here, I’d bet. It seems truly hopeless. There’s enough ***t going on without enduring this miserable three game losing streak from one of my main “escapes”.


Crying aside, I’m going to do my best to feel confident it will end and we will turn this season around with a win.

The off-season is long enough. I don’t need it starting in November. And, like I said in another thread, we are a few bad breaks away form being 5-1 or maybe 6-0.
Top 10 in offense and D.

We are and definitely were widely regarded as one of the most talented teams. There is reason to think we can come out of this despite the coaching.

Damn good find @Proximo

There is hope

This site now has sunk to the depths of a franchise with no hope.

Football has lost its flavor. The months of the year that bring the most joy for me are now simply the tedium of a GM that is so stubborn he ignores making the needed changes, the Player Personal VP is a chip off the old dried bull patty. And a head coach that now exhibits the traits of a man promoted three slots over his ability, has no answers, is not a leader, has no inkling of strategizing to offset the other team's plans, and a team full of walking wounded.

The prospect of 11 months until the 2020 seasons begins just sucks the air right out of me, like a punch to the gut.

The fact that even that possibility of better times encompasses the truth that nothing will change. The people responsible for our anguish will still be at the helm of the ship, setting a course for nowhere.

We are in a free fall, with no ground below us, and dropping in a vacuum where our screams of frustration cannot be heard by anyone who gives a damn.

They will galvanize at some point to win enough games this season to miss out on the premium players in the coming draft. Mediocre begets second-rate. Not enough to crash and cash-in on the possibility of bringing in quality talent. Not enough to pull your franchise out of the Groundhog's Day of damaged goods created by a man who suffers from a karma of his own making, and so unaware of self to see he causes all the pain the fans feel. And never actually making the play-offs and winning something more than last place in the tournament is the supreme insult for a franchise that was once the apex of this league.

The owner's solace is billions.

Our affliction is between 6-10 and 8-8.

We are who we think we are.

I was there the first few seasons when Laundry was a curse word in Dallas.
I was there losing to Cleveland two years straight and being labeled Next Year's Team.
I was there for the loss to the Colts when two horrific calls changed the outcome.
I was there for both losses to the Steelers.
I was there for the F****** Catch.
I was there for the 3-13 season.
I was there for Landry's firing.
I have been there for every one of these 23 lousy seasons of heartbreak and in some cases outright embarrassment.

And at no time, not even the first hour after the F****** Catch did I feel like this.This despair of nothingness, because nothing ever really changes.

They say repeating the same behavior expecting different results is the definition of insanity. I don't know that it is true.

But if so, I am related to everyone on this site who believes the Cowboys are the only real franchise, and the rest are poor carbon copies.

Which makes this the Asylum of the Crazy Mofos.

At least I am in good company.

Oh the irony of the progression of this forum. The first 3 games were pure fantasy-land. Multiple threads exalting certain players as the Best in the NFL, fabricating a Legend built on Fools Gold, but alas, reality has reached in and crushed the hyperventilation exuded by some.

Now that the illusion has been exposed lets see if the team can play .500 ball the rest of the way because they aren't reaching the promised land anytime soon. And for Gods's sake, lets not overpay anybody else for Mediocre accomplishment.

 

[glimmerman]

If the team was winning there will still be people who will make excuses and find reasons to be down.

When we were 3-0 I was happy but people still kept saying we have not played anyone yet. Then we lose they can say I told you so. Lol. I for one enjoyed it because it is any given Sunday.

Enjoy the wins cause I hate the weeks we lose, I don’t really watch any media stuff or other football games. Basically dont enjoy the season.
