Anyone feel bullied at times for having different opinions on the Cowboys?

I don't care what people say to me.

What bothers me is seeing the extremely moronic comments/opinions.

It reminds me of the novel by H.G. Wells "The Time Machine". In the Novel the time traveler goes forward 800,000 years into the future. Humans have evolved into 2 species.
- One species looks like current humans and seem to live an idealistic life with no work and everything is provided for them. They are completely ignorant.
- The other species lives underground and they look like monsters. They provide the food and everything for the above ground species because they eat the above ground people...
Well you don't seem to consider yourself ignorant.......so now I'm curious what you look like. :muttley:

I’ve had my share of being out on a limb alone: Zimmer, Terrence Newman, Romo (yes, there was a time that was a very unpoular opinion), Garrett. I’ve never get bullied though.

That’s mostly because I don’t have a lot of respect for the judgement of angry mobs. And it’s just people arguing on the internet. Who cares if a bunch of anonymous people don’t agree with you about something that doesn’t matter anyway?

Touché. That's a good zinger.

The Novel
The novel had significant underlying meanings throughout.

The above ground people were the Eloi. The underground "monsters" were the Morlocks.

The underlying meanings were that the Eloi represented the English Aristocracy.
- The well dressed, well mannered people of "polite society" that did't really know much about anything other than leisure activities and social graces.

The Morlocks represented the lower class that did the work.

Neither species was overly intelligent but the Morlocks had enough knowledge to operate some type of machinery and to accumulate food required to raise their livestock (The Eloi).

All higher level thinking and all culture had disappeared. There were remains of a library and the Eloi knew the items inside were called books but they had no idea of their purpose.

Modern World
My take is that a majority of Americans have devolved into morons.

It's not that people are born with less brains. It's just that society has devolved into people not using or developing their brains.

The majority of sports fans have become one of the best examples of the devolution of society.

The fact that people watch and listen to Skip Bayless allowing him to make millions of dollars per year is proof of devolution.

In the internet age we have incredible access to information yet society as a whole as become less intelligent from a practical perspective.

Exactly, there are a number of posters here could make good posts but they just scan and look for zingers. Plus there are some morons.

Hmm, should I read anything into the fact that you repeated the word "zinger", after he used it when addressing my post?
