Bandwagon fans

[Beast_from_East]

Bandwagon fan is just a nice way of saying quitter.

Bro, you seriously need to consult a dictionary...............you are using words that have totally different meanings than what you are trying to say.

The dictionary definition of quitting is "to stop actively participating in a physical or mental challenge."

Fans watching a pro sports team are not "actively participating", they are observing. When you sit your arse on the couch and watch the Cowboys you are an observer as well just like everybody else.

Ergo, a fan cannot be a quitter since they are not an active participant...........I am not trying to be a dick about it, but you are using words that have totally different definitions than what you are actually trying to say.

Except that 28 years is a BIG problem and why my fandom is not the same. Jerry has sapped the life out of me. Maybe you are younger and you are just rolling with it.

But if you experienced either the 70’s or 90’s or both, trust me you would temper your fandom.

I would quit being a fan before I was made miserable by a billionaire who pays millionaires to play a game.

More like fans are just frustrated and fed up with the lack of success when wins are really needed.

Yes a few games to go, we are in the playoffs. But what will happen in the playoffs is what fans are waiting on.
Do they disappoint again, or surprise and make a deep playoff run.

I am not sure if a NFCCG appearance will be enough to satisfy some. But at least get there for once in 28 years. Otherwise just the same old stuff.

It’s the title game or bust as far as I’m concerned. They are relatively healthy and have no excuses. Can’t wins road games? Like man the hell up!

I’m confused, are you sure you’re talking to the right person?

It is a reason of what is dysfunctional in directions all the way since Jimmy Johnson was fired.

Of course with your eyesight, it wasn't understood by yourself as to meaning...you so disappointed to recognize an already analyzed description of what is the wrong with this team as well as leadership by McCarthy and leadership of Prescott included. This team could still force it's way into the picture.

Now, the Ravens with injury to San Francisco keeps on opening up opportunity that Dallas can still take advantage of which.

Never mind, you prefer the labels of scorn and not the real facts to even listen...that's on YOU now.

Let the poor, scared rats jump. The seasons not over but see y’all next year!

Thank you!!

Eleven pages all because Rocky made up his own definition of "bandwagon" fans. Well played, sir.

Purdy just had four interceptions and lost quite a few linemen, bet that wasn't wasted on him as was with you. What, you didn't care to even point that out or that Miami only scored a single touchdown and beat Dallas by a last second field goal. That wasn't lost on him either. Know how I know that? He is loyal and pays a non biased notice.

See if you can explain now, apply beyond doom and gloom how momentum and rhythm affect individual games and team directions. To you that is a sign of ignorance already a no meaning to yourself beyond explainging your own excuse for any failure involved.

He doesn't miss those items...and YOU are ashamed of those who lead with pride. You are really the one who can't handle it.

C'mon now, just explain who to adjust on this team's level, momentum and rhythm in a game. I don't think you can come up with more than attitude and excuses.

Let's go...

I’m right there with ya, man. Been watching since 1965. I think “tempering” fandom is a function of age and wisdom along with the fact that the “modern” game and league is just so much less of a product than it once was on its face. Then, you add in the gambling partnering with Vegas and apparent corruption and, it doesn’t leave much to be excited about.

I'm still tempted to toss empty beer cans at the television...they are just too expensive to keep that habit. I'm still 100% loyal to day and don't live and breath yelling at Jerry Jones in the mean time. I'm that fan...

Please go sell crazy to someone else, I have no idea what you’re talking about, why you are talking to me, or what sparked thus convo. Nothing you have said seems to have any relevance to anything I said. Goodbye

Seems like it goes back to somewhat. About domestic abuse you referenced that set it off.

Either way, likely a good time to bail out of a weird thread.

Yeah weird, I was basically saying many of us wish we could divorce this team for breaking our hearts over and over yet we keep coming back like codependents…was really just a joke and guess it was taken way off the rails.

Sorry you are not any more than a crap load and don't care for what actually determines out come on an organizational level.

You are no more now than a missed opportunity here. You are smug within your convenience of attitude you don't care to discuss. Keep up with your own rotten excuses buddy. You want to hang out with the 'rich and fancy' then stay the hell away from this fan, but if you keep lieing on site, you are OPEN game. I don't agree with you on the level of a person. TOUGH.

The word on San Francisco here and now is FIVE turnovers...live with that classless.

Know what paint colors to use to paint a fan supportive addition to your OWN home?

You'll be hearing from this fan all the time, and you can count on that up to when the Cowboys do win it all.

Boo Hoo, you are just so terrifying with your display of one's own attitude.

You actually refuse to discuss, naw ace, that is YOUR failure...I'll continue to call you out on issue again, buddy.You better place this fan on ignore. I'm not ignoring your crap when it happens. I'll talk football, unlike your sense of disappointments.

Belly bumping here...so.

Domestic abuse....imply something else.

Name caller without projecting more than a personalized stereotype for an excuse. I don't need that kind of support...I don't wear a bra.

It never ceases to amaze me that some people don't understand that you can be realistic about your team's odds and still root for them and be a fan. You don't have to be a blind idiot to call yourself a fan.

Remember a few years ago when Dallas lost to the Cardinals and I said oh boy this team isnt going anywhere and people like you kept saying oh they will get it fixed for the playoffs. Well I was right!
I told you it's coming! History has a way of predicting the future. A true fan is willing to see and admit the flaws in the team. Fake fans are in denial and have an agenda to blame everyone else but their favorite player who is part of the problem.

Seriously. What bandwagon fan is coming onto a website in 2023? Who is going to go that far to out of their way when they could just join a group on FB.

Just because ppl don’t always agree with you doesn’t make them a bandwagon fan.

There's a Facebook page called "The Star" where people who make negative comments are kicked out. Some members here should go spend their time there instead. It would be a lot less stressful and filled with people who are forced to think just like them. .

After 30 years of EXACTLY the same thing fans deserve to vent. This franchise is a punchline.

Hey everybody, check out the OP thinking there are actually bandwagon fans of a team that has not won crap in a quarter of a century

Since the OP seems confused, here is the actual dictionary definition of bandwagon fans:

"Bandwagon fans only show interest and support for a sports team based on recent successes or popularity, e.g., when their city’s football team is going to or has won the Super Bowl."

The key word here is recent. Ergo, a team that has not advanced past the divisional round of the playoffs in 25 years, by definition, cannot have bandwagon fans.

Bandwagon fans of Mediocrity. The moment the cowboys will stop being Mediocre they'll jump teams!

There's some on here that only post about certain players. Some that just show up after wins or losses. Some that just post drunk.
And there are some that just post about other posters, than football content, and try to get reactions.
