How many plan on buying attending a game in Dallas after yesterday?

Hardline · Nov 27, 2021

I'm not attending a game or buying merch until they win a Super Bowl. I don't spend money on inferior products.

No point in paying and traveling hundreds of miles to watch a team constantly falter, lose, and collapse year after year regardless of what’s going on (“ref” interference, injuries, etc.). Money could be spent on much better and more worthwhile things. I’ll stick to cable for now. Maybe when I’m on my deathbed I’ll go see them lose in person one last time.

Yawb. You should stop watching on TV. Much better things to spend your time on.

I'm not ready to give up on this Cowboys season so I'm still going to attend the home games. You know the Cowboys are headed to the playoffs so I'll at least be headed to that if we host a game.

I will never spend money to see a Cowboys game in person as long as the refs are allowed to dictate our games. I saw Jerry's reaction and it's little bit late. This has been going on for years now so don't get mad now when they do it on Thanksgiving.

Imagine spending your Thanksgiving Day at AT&T Stadium and watching the refs throw a flag every 2 minutes of play. Completely unwatchable and something should have been done about it years ago.

perfect…..the cowboys fan base just got smarter with your departure.

looks like another fan that can’t read an injury report. :muttley:

you fair weather chumps will be right back hooping it up once we get healthy.

There's probably a reason why the stadium was filled with Raider fans... Dallas fans have been wising up and learning to stop spending their money on the Jones circus. With that said, I don't really blame the team as much as the terrible officiating job this past game. However, that KC game was all us and I don't blame fans for not wanting to pay for that.

Like players are fined for every missed assignment, dropped pass, or missed tackle? How about coaches for every stupid decision?

Expecting perfection from refs while players and coaches make mistake after mistake, while being paid a lot more than refs, is comical.

But the point is we watch the game to see the players, not the officials. The officials should be an afterthought. One or two questionable or blown calls is maybe understandable, but it is unacceptable when there are over 30 flags thrown, most of which are judgement calls. It’s like the crew went into the game thinking they had to be sure they kept the game fair and determined only by the players, but in doing so did exactly the opposite.

I decided 5 years ago that I am not going to buy anything from Cowboys until we reach the NFCCG

I didn't even realize until the next day how many flags were thrown until everyone started talking about it. I was soooo close on pulling the trigger on tickets for this game. I have had this on my bucket list my whole life-Thanksgiving Day game. My GF was all in and went out and bought a Zeke jersey and even bought one for our new pup. We were all in.

Ask me what I am thankful for now...and by the way we are still in 1st.

Refs have been determining outcome of NFL games for years. There should be a review of every play in every game. The refs should be fined for every incorrect or missed call. Until the refs are held accountable, we can expect to have the same inconsistencies across the board. When they will start losing more, they will start doing a better job.

Can you imagine how long a game would take. I don't think you want to see that. Mistakes will still happen on the subjective calls.

I’ve been to 5 games this year, missing only Thanksgiving, and will be at the next 3. I’m not happy when they lose, but unlike in my younger days, it’s not life or death. My criteria is to be entertained and not waste my time, the later of which isn’t dependent on winning is losing. Thursday’s game was unentertaining simply because off the officiating.

Best part, free flights on southwest points, free 4 nights hotels from points from wifes job. So less income spent to attend said games. Life is great.

Bingo,

Ive been to Eagles, Giants, Chargers, Raiders, and now Saints. I MIGHT come back for Cardinals game depending on if it is important or not. At 52, and as a coach who really became depressed after a big loss at nationals for 4 days, Ive been able to never let my enjoyment of any sporting event be dependent upon a win or loss. After my mini depression, my comment to my teams after a tough loss was always, "The game cant only be fun if you win." Same applies as a FAN of an NFL team.

Those of you saying how you are off the bandwagon....also like id say... dont mutiny, just jump ship. We will continue on without you.

Honestly, a Thanksgiving day game was no different than any other game Ive been to. Because we are so busy that day of the game, it doesnt even feel like Thanksgiving.

I could be wrong, but I think he meant a review after the games are played.

Yesterday was a bad day for the NFL, I am glad they exposed themselves to the massive scope of viewers.

How many plan on buying attending a game in Dallas after yesterday?
