With the Stars losing in the first round every year (this year more painfully than ever), the Mavs looking terribly flat in what was supposed to be their "post-season of dominance" after blowing a 2-0 lead that was supposed to be their "title," and the Cowboys being the Cowboys -- I don't think we can say we have it easy as Dallas fans anymore.

Sure, our teams make the playoffs. But holy hell, guys. Between our pro sports (not to mention the Rangers' historic ineptitude), arena football and MLS, there is a whole lot of playoff chokes in there.

It's official guys. We're turning into Buffalo.
 
To the Stars, thanks for nothing. Now I have to put up with raving lunatics err Cannot fans for the next week at least.

Hey, I had to watch DiPietro get shelled by the #1 seed in the Eastern conference. He kept the games manageable, but he has no defensive help and little offense. Oh well. back to football. :D

Wish I could empathize parchy. I'm a Philadelphian after all.

I was going to mention Philly in the middle of all the Buffalo talk but didn't want to rub salt in the wound.

I think the last championship celebration there was for the '76ers over 20 years ago, right?

Keep in mind though that at least you're not as bad off as Cleveland fans. Now that's a city that's had it rough.
 
Hell, I'm at the point now where I'd settle for FC Dallas winning the championship in soccer if I thought that they were good enough.

Ironically, I hung all my hope on the Desperados winning the ArenaBowl this year until they got manhandled by Georgia last week to squash that dream.

Desperados, you guys can cleanse the atmosphere of choking if you win the ArenaBowl this year.

Of course, if you lose, the feeling will be stronger than ever after winning a record 15 regular season games. No pressure!
 
Dallas fans have it infitently better than Buffalo fans, in your life times you have seen your football team win atleast 3 titles, your hockey team win 1, your basketball team change from a farce to a power, and watching the likes of Arod and Soriano on the Rangers. Life could be ALOT worse, trust me.

This has nothing to do with the past. It's about what we have become.

Yes, since Dallas hasnt won a title since 99, everything is a sham, no?

Let me introduce you to a few Cubs fans..........

Yes, it was been tough.

I still don't understand how you are a Cardinals fan?

I mean really, the Cardinals? That's just one of the most random things I have ever seen.

Random is a good word. First football game I ever watched as a kid was Cardinals /Commanders almost 30 years ago. Been hooked ever since. Otherwise I'm the biggest Sixers, Phillies, Flyers fan there is.
