You lost me at 'not really'.
Not really was in response to your statement of the negative posters have control due to numbers and are successful in what they do. It followed your own statement. The remainder stands on it's own merit as to what is involved as well. Respect being the outcome and not ridicule.

...what?

Nothing, absolutely nothing about my statement says or suggests 'negative posters' have control due to numbers--unless you believe they are in control of your perception that they are the majority opinion on this board. I understand where you are coming from if it is the latter.

You gave an attaboy on their success...no implication involved. Now you saying that meant something akin to humor?

Take a reread:

I must hand it to Prescott critics. They are a smaller group on this board, who create an excessive volume of threads and posts, which are interpreted by a larger group, a.k.a. Prescott supporters, as 'most of the board'.

Prescott critics have made the Fan Zone their version of the Grecian Trojan Horse. lol. I do not believe that group perception is held vice versa.


You state they are successful at annoyance...that's their direction by choice to someone just attempting topical discussion. Now tell me that isn't the fact also...Oh, I can handle it. But the fact remains by other's choices.

No, different reference points and reasons for them were addressed. I was in Law School for a year. A paralegal/court reporter for about 5 years...a Custom MP for three. As well as a Correctional Officer also. I have a different set of observation points...not attacking your view of sports, here.

You merely refuse to listen to those for purpose of a discussion...that is your choice not a result of my intent.

Okay. I will give this one last final shot. This is what I suggest.

The ESPN article says a computer simulation has Dallas finishing 4-13.

Read post #2.

Read post #3

Review the vote breakdown in this thread: https://cowboyszone.com/threads/predict-the-season-record-for-the-2023-cowboys.513219/. Take account of the actual members who have voted and how they voted.

PLEASE DO NOT READ POSTS #5 & #7. I do not believe those two particular comments will be helpful here.

Read post #7.

Read post #11.

My hope is proper context will be established afterwards. I sincerely give up if you will still believe what you believe.

They ran 20,000 simulations and found the *one* thst had the Cowboys absolutely suck, and then wrote an entire piece built around simulation 3,318.
It is one of the more unique clickbait offerings the company has ever generated. :muttley:

If we start 1-5, Jerry is ordering McCarthy to start Trey Lance to "see" what he can give us. Wink. Wink.

If we start 1-5, can't you see Jerry Jones marching into McCarthy's office lambasting and demanding that Big Mike play Trey Lance to "see" if he will or won't be able jump start this franchise to a possible championship run.

Lmao. Absolutely terrible.

They may not win a Super Bowl. But this is the furthest from a 4-13 worst record in the nfl team
But, but, but….. it’s analytics based so it must be accurate.

Right...instead of just having good threads with real fans we can have a small group of people who ruin threads with there Dak hate to provoke as you put it "Dak supporters" myself? I call them Cowboy fans but potato potata.

Yep that's the Eagles forum Cowboyzone for ya.
You know what, lol. The so called "haters" are saying the same thing about the Daksters. That they're in the majority and hostile towards any differently thinking folks.

I think you're all wrong and just trying to project your own frustration towards a "group" thinking differently. And then creating the false narrative that there are only a few righteous fighters for truth left. Which is by the way happening in every aspect of social life these days and the main reason for it's division.

In the end, whether you're a supporter or critic of that guy, you just have an opinion. And you know what Dirty Harry said about them.

So chill and stop making things up. There are quite a few critical voices of Dak now yes. But his supporters are at hand just as fast wherever something critical has been said.

So like my grandfather used to say: put 'em all in a bag and hit it with a stick. You'll always hit the right guy. Aka in this discussion both sides should stop smelling their own farts.

Ok, so hypothetically speaking - we are at #2 in the 2024 draft - Arizona is at #1 - does Williams pull an Eli/Elway and refuse to play for them? Does Dallas make a play for Williams?

The #2 overall pick.

I could see a collapse this year and the Texas Coast Offense thing being a one year joke but I don't know if it would be to that extent.
