Are people like Mickey Spagnola allowed to predict a Cowboys defeat?

I can't recall company men like Mickey Spagnola having ever predicted a Cowboys defeat, when they do their pre-game analysis and predictions. (If Spags or Nick Eatman ever has, then someone correct me.)

Obviously, they can't seriously be expecting the Cowboys to go 19-0 undefeated and win the Super Bowl every year. But are there any job-related consequences for Cowboys employees like Spags predicting a Cowboys defeat? Sounds like a prime case of conflict-of-interest.

They are Homer's so don't really ever expect that they will give an honest oponion unless it aligns with their paycheck.

I went back to look...for the Cowboys-Rams playoff game Draper, Phillips, Helman, Eatman, Broaddus and Spagnola all pick the Cowboys. Shocker.

Here’s a little story— when Shan sharif was hired to do cowboys radio he admitted to being a life long Commanders fan(which him and choppy have both come around to being cowboys fans it seems) and choppy said it’s not that big of a deal. That people don’t realize it but Mickey and brad sham and someone else we’re all Vikings, packers, and bears fans and give each other crap when the nfc north play each other. I can’t remember who was a fan of what since I forgot that info but you forget that these guys came from somewhere else too.

I’m sure Mickey probably isn’t really a homer but is just hired to be one.

I thought it was a victory considering it was a home game too, till I seen the running lanes those guys had.

Do you guys even watch their shows? Micky, sure, is a company man. But the rest speak their minds. Ambar, Eatman, Broadus, Helman, etc have often chosen the opposition to win. We're playing well this year so chances of it are less.
