I don't know what the argument is at this point
This fact will become more and more apparent as we move foward in our discussion.
Your first mistake is assuming I heard incorrectly . Why because your Wrong ! I heard perfectly I don't have a comprehension problem like you .
Insisting you don't have a comprehension problem when you just stated "you don't what the argument is" is truly ironic, especially considering that you started the argument.
There are very few similarities between Dallas and New York City. Right But to a simpleton like yourself it all looks the same, big city, lights, crowds, traffic, big business- Too a small-ville person any type of change would warrant a comparison and if you think I'm the only one who has heard that Dallas isn't like the rest of Texas your sadly mistaken. NO it isn't like NYC nothing is its the greatest CITY, In the world ( IMHO)
This statement is a mass of contradiction. The name calling suggests anger was clouding your judgment as you typed it.
Initially, you intimated that Dallas tries to emulate NYC. I rebutted your claim, stating that the differences between Dallas and NYC were many and varied. Your rebuttal above makes absolutely no sense.
If all cities really did appear identical to a "simpleton like myself," why would I have challenged your statement about Dallas and New York? Wouldn't I have made a statement more akin to this:
"Uhu, uhu. You city folk is all alike. You cities is so big and confusin' to us simple country folk. But it's a good thing you here 'cause we's don' know when to root for those Cowboys. Is they on defense when that Tony Romo-fella's on the field? Is that when me and all my 15 chillins' can get loud like we at the goat roapin' festival?"
If I really thought all cities looked identical, isn't it more likely I would've agreed with your assessment and expressed nothing but contempt and disdain for the city of Dallas?
Think about it.
I must be perfectly honest with you, ilovejerry. Even if you did understand the argument, it likely wouldn't help you, given your penchant for baseless generalizations, poorly contrived rebuttals, and self-contradiction.
Let's just say your debate skills are somewhat questionable.
You should also know I'm well-versed in city life. I know all about the lights, the annoying traffic, and the large centers of commerce. I grew up in Austin, Texas; I lived in St. Louis for 2 and 1/2 years; and, I visit Dallas and Houston frequently.
And yes, Dallas isn't always like the "rest of Texas," but neither is Austin, Houston, San Antonio, or any other city. They're all unique, and they all have their own personalities. Texas is a very diverse state, so don't confuse "uniqueness" and "diversity" with a desire to emulate New York.
You have no clue what your talking about this isn't about sell outs this is about the greatest football franchise in history. Who are they supposed to be comparable too
The number of sellouts is relevent because it provides a point of comparison between fans on the east coast and fan in Texas. It would provide some measure of evidence--a necessary component when criticizing and making sweeping generalizations about the people in Dallas.
Not providing any evidence is certainly your perogative, but you shouldn't get snippy when the baseless, unfounded nature of your claim is exposed.
There the best and they should be treated like the best not only when there winning but a fair weather fan like yourself wouldn't know that
Fairweather fan, eh?
When I lived in St. Louis, the Cowboys fielded some bad teams. But each and every Sunday, I would trek over to Ozzies (the local sports bar) and watch my beloved Cowboys get shellacked. At a lonely bar stool I would sit until the last second of a 30 point blowout loss ticked off the clock with a glassy perpexled look on my face, enduring relentless and merciless heckling from Rams' fans, Steelers' fan, and all manner of non-Cowboy affiliated fans. Mind you, I don't drink, so I had absolutely nothing to ease the pain.
Its none of your business who I know , its another matter of what I know. and I know you have no idea of what your saying.
Yet it's your business with whom I associate? You're the one who brought up this whole issue of knowing Jerry and his family. Your statement above is a trifle disingenuous, don't you think?
I was also taught loose lips shink ships.
Were you taught anything about baseless generalizations?
