Are we the most selfish fans in the NFL?

[Doomsday101]

Welcome to EVERY sports forum on the internet.

You mean where some are ruled by the emotions of the day? :laugh2:
True, good thing there are those who look beyond todays headlines

 

[bbgun]

Selfish? Feh. I share myself with you each and every day. Not that I'm fishing for "thank you's."

 

[utrunner07]

"Spoiled" is a more fitting term IMO.

Yeah, we are REAL spoiled, so much to hang our hats on in the last decade...


We have high expectations. That is all.

 

[RS12]

After 13 years and no playoff wins, I dont feel particularly spoiled.

Go talk to a Cubs fan.

Yeah, 13 years is a lot....if your a Cowboys fan. If you're a fan of the majority of the other teams in the NFL, it's the norm.

Sue me for not being a whiny little ***** with the majority.

Spoiled is EXACTLY what the majority of this fanbase is IMO.

 

[bbgun]

Go talk to a Cubs fan.

Why? Their team has won post-season games in the last decade. They know nothing of our suffering.

 

[BAZ]

Selfish fans........no.......lovers, yes.

Just ask your wife.

oh high and mighty seer, we give thee great thanks for pointing out our deplorable flaws, please we are not even whether of your presence, please find someplace else to be so that you will not be soiled by our iniquities.

Don't bother. This was just another another thinly-veiled attack by the pom-pom squad on their fellow fans. For some bizarre reason, they never have to apologize for anything.

OR...you could just stop being a whiny little *****.

Like I said...it's your choice.

how ironic, coming from the poster whining about people whining.

if you want to be happy with the past decade good for you, low expectations = low disappointment. but if some want to be upset about it then why don't you just let them. no one is coming on here criticizing you for your low expectations, why do you feel the need to criticize those with high expectations?

bbgun, I am sorry.

bbgun, I am sorry.

Go to your room and don't come out until your mother and I say so.

Ahh...the Martyr of all Cowboydom chimes in with his usual whit!

Pom poms! Genius!

Why should I apologize? I'm not attacking, I'm stating an opinion. If I were stuck in a Foxhole with another football fan, would I rather it was a Browns fan than Cowboys fan?....sadly, I think that's a "yes". I'd guess my odds of finding someone with a great deal of intestinal fortitude are better.

That's not to say I don't think we have good fans...I think we do. Lots of them.

...but we, and by we I mean YOU, certainly tend to over-dramatize the lamentations of this franchise.

Thankfully, we have you there for us to take the brunt of the misery bbgun. What would we do without you?

Live a happy fulfilling life free of Jerry Jones' torment?

I think not!

Not whining. Just stating an opinion.

Did I start this thread. No.

I'm not criticizing anyone in particular...sans bbgun...I haven't stopped anyone from sharing their opinions...at least to my knowledge. I just call it like I see it...when I see people constantly *****ing and moaning....yeah.

...and I'm not happy about our lack of playoff wins either...but I'm not going to put it in my Signature as if my knowledge of such a disparaging statistic elevates my level of suffering above those that choose to concentrate on rooting for the team that plays the Eagles next week....

I believe others whom you call whiners would make the exact same argument that they are submitting simply their opinions. It just so happens that since you don't like their opinions you view it as whining.

But continue oh great seer, show all the wretched filth where they have erred.

Will that be in time to watch MNF?

You can believe what you want...but you have absolutely nothing to base it on, as I haven't even given an example of what I consider whining.

...but your stern attempt to put me in my place in defense of all of your whiny brethren is pretty close. It seems my opinion has left a scar on your pathetically thin skin. Awww....

 

[DallasEast]

I don't know how a fanbase that hasn't seen a playoff win in 13 years could be selfish. We are right down there with the dregs of the league.

Pointing out aberrant, anti-social behavior is "martyrdom"? Only in your little world.

Pom poms! Genius!

Haters! Whiners! Selfish! Negative Nancies! Genius!

Why should I apologize?

Why should the realists?

I'm not attacking, I'm stating an opinion.

Right, 'cause cracks about martyrs and whiny *****es are obvious compliments.

If I were stuck in a Foxhole with another football fan, would I rather it was a Browns fan than Cowboys fan?....sadly, I think that's a "yes". I'd guess my odds of finding someone with a great deal of intestinal fortitude are better.

Now I know why front-running fans like yourself are beaten to a pulp at the Linc. No wonder we're so hated around the league. You stay thin-skinned and arrogant, and I'll stay "real."
