The Homers might be delusional but not the Diehards.

But then all homers are. It’s how they roll.

Stephen A is just a troll.He’s like the lowest form in sports media .

Every fanbase has delusional fans, realistic fans, normal fans, overreactors, etc., etc. Dallas has the most entitled fanbase, which goes with the territory of being America’s Team.

Most of us are normal. We grouse about the 27 years, watch the games, and hope for the best. If we lose, we lose—it’s just a game. Explaining everything and labeling everything gets tiring. I can like what I want and believe what I want.

Yep, fans come in different packages. The tired old phrase, "well go root for another team" if you disagree with the FO or some of the players, is just that....TIRED and moronic. No one can dictate to another who to root for, or who qualifies as a fan. We're all fans... some more aware than others and who have limits to the madness.

Being optimistic and hopeful isn’t delusional, and a “Homer” is someone who doesn’t see any problems. Don’t really know any of those. But yeah, SAS is a troll. Most of those guys are boring and predictable. One guy I can’t stand is Acho. Arrogant little dude with the weird hair, unnaturally white teeth, and suit jacket two sizes too small, so he can look buff (must idolize Horseface Sharpe). The Chiefs beat us without our top two WRs and a couple of others, they also beat several other teams w/o key players, but Acho was praising KC nonstop, almost as bad as Nick Wright. Someone mentioned the depleted opposition, but Acho said “A win is a win”. Weeks later, when Dallas DESTROYED the Commanders he said “I refuse to applaud a fish for swimming, because that’s what they’re supposed to do!” Biased jerk playing for clicks.

Wild guess…You’re a Diehard, which means NOT delusional, and anyone that contests whatever you might say? A delusional Homer!

Yes they are. There are many in this forum.
Cowboys fans are a national joke. Myself excluded.
Anyone who actively roots for this team year in and out and is on this site currently is delusional and a joke lol. I like how some fans are trying to not be included in the bunch but no we are all jokes. We sit here arguing with each other every day about how bad this guy is and how bad that guy is all while rooting for a team that's led by Jerry Jones. A guy who's shown he can't win a SB without Jimmy Johnson and who couldn't even win one with Bill Parcells.

I can't believe they even have to do segments on Cowboys fans anymore...

Exactly.

But you're soo totally not cool if you have a positive outlook about the team.

I think we can definitely win the division. From there, logic says, anything can happen.

If that makes me delusional, OK. But I'm still basing my perspective on logical assumptions that any objective person really can't lie, unless you really think the Eagles and Jalen Hurt can win the NFCE.

I know, I know. The Eagles got better this year. blah blah blah.

OK, so they can take their snide opinions about how only Cowboys fans are delusional, and go be an Eagles fanatic!

(Not directed at you, or OP.)

If you look at this thread: https://cowboyszone.com/threads/who...allas-cowboys-will-win-the-super-bowl.497589/

There are currently 14 highly delusional fans.
Delusional describes a person that holds on to beliefs that contradicts logic. Every team from a mathematical stand point has a chance to win a Super Bowl every year. I hope they win a Super Bowl this year and I will continue to hold that hope until we're eliminated. But that's not me being delusional, that's me being logical. Why give up on a team I love before the clock strikes twelve?

Hypocrisy is behaving in a manner that contradicts your beliefs. So the fans that believe we don't have a chance this year, but are still watching every game, could be considered hypocrites. So yes the question is... if you believe we don't have a chance then why watch the games?

Some of you guys are running around calling posters this and calling posters that. But don't even know the definitions of the words you are using. Hypocrites.

I don’t even know who Acho is. I stopped watching those national hacks and trolls years ago.

Optimism isn’t a problem . And we are all hopeful. That’s not the homerism I’m referring to.

You have to delude yourself to some extent to even give a crap about pro sports, period.
I actually got into hockey this season for the first time in my life.
I like it because most hockey players when they actually do smile are missing several teeth.
Maybe they just get them professionally removed by their dentist for social status, IDK, but they look the part...lol

Finally, Stephen A's excuse for hating Cowboy fans can no longer be used....I NEVER thought Cowboy fans were as delusional as portrayed. For every idiot that spends their families last hard earned dollar on trips to Oxnard, there are realists like 95%+ on here that no longer fall for all the BS that Booger and Chuckles are shoveling. For every ONE idiot mugging for the camera at AT&T in a Great Gazoo sized Cowboys helmet, there are TEN knowlegeable fans watching at home patiently in a wait and see mode...all the while secretly praying that Booger will but on a pair of black NIKE's, pull the sheet up over his head, and take an extended nap. Yeah...I said it.



Not only will we win the next Super Bowl but Zeke will run for 220 yards, Dak will be MVP and we'll beat the Chiefs 55-3.

So tell me. What am I supposed to do? Switch teams? Cheer for another team? I'm not going to do that. As rough as it is for a young fan like myself, I'm a Cowboys fan. So, I'll defend my team where I can.
