I'll put it like this. I never had a single person on mute on the old board. I've got six on mute here, and all of them are CZ guys.
I had a Landry's hat . I wish they would have let me brought it with me . for those that don't know it's an award. I never pressed the report button once hundred thousand post . I was pretty proud of that .I've already been reported here . people get their feelings hurt so quick

Sorry your having problems comprehending
I don't know how fast your computer or phone gets a response mine is pretty quick. I've noticed some people wait hours before they respond maybe they're jumping around 2 to many different articles
Lol... right on buddy.
For the second part: maybe other people have jobs and a life and don't live on a message board.

People give derogatory responses hours after the post I think they are afraid to be challenged. That's what it seems like.

But you don't know. You're assuming. Maybe they went to have dinner with their family.
Maybe they had to finish a project before deadline.
Maybe anything. Honestly. There are many things that happens in people's lives.

Cool. I have no problem with you. I just made a comment that you post like a whirlwind.
Unless you believe that's derogatory...

I Have Been a Cowboy fan since Rodger Staubach. Overseas in the military the Cowboys were all you could get. Tom Landry was the class of the league. You have to love the star what it represented. I live through it all I haven't missed a Cowboys game in over 30 seasons. I missed vacations to stay in the hotel watching Cowboys games. Yes I live football. But during the week I treat my family like they should be with respect. Till the weekend belongs to me. I've been through the thick and thin. I hope that gives you a little background check. Because of posting numbers I'm treated like a rookie like I have no say in anything. I find that comical

You are absolutely correct I am assuming. But I gave three assumptions. Maybe I should post more I dunno definitely for a fact one or two posters that hide until you're gone. The consistency proves it

You have 20k messages. You're hooked like three rest of us, bud.
Never said I wasn't. Where did you get I said that?

No and neither was the team specialist that initially diagnosed Lawrence. I am a personal trainer for 40 years. You don't have to be a doctor for Diagnostics. But you sure as hell better be one if you're going to perform a surgery. Do you know how many doctors send their patients out for pre-exam.

Yes it is about money but it is also about status. Come on you can't feed for family for 18 or 19 million a year? get real... As for DLaw I understand very well he is obligated to take care of himself, I don't blame him and the Dallas Cowboys are obligated to put a team of 53 on the field with many key players who are also looking for contract. It is not all about DLaw for Dallas it is about a lot of players. the notion that the player can stand up and say this is what I want and the team has to bend over and give is not a fact. DLaw needs to do what is best for him and the Organization must do what is best for the entire team

Yeah, there is some "status" going on. The best is usually calculated by the biggest contract.

I agree about both doing what is best for themselves. They should be working to get the best trade they can. Win-win.

Man he must have a fat family if they can't eat off 20 mill. yes it is about money and I have no issue with it he can ask for all he wants. Cowboys too have an obligation to 53 players and some very key ones who will also be looking for a pay day and the Cowboys must do this with in a cap limit. People want to act as if this is one sided for the player yet do not want to see the others who will also be up for contracts and it is the job of this organization to try and get all or as many of these players signed. I don't think Cowboys are being unfair in their offer.

DLaw is not being unfair by wanting more either. Business on both sides.

Unreasonable to expect guys to take a haircut for the team. Especially guys on their first big contract.

The *only* way I see taking a haircut for the team is if *all* of the guys coming up for big contracts take a haircut together. Then at least their haircut brings an appreciable improvement to the team. But I've never heard of players even contemplating that.
