At least its wa I hate someone other then Dak thread. Small miracles happen, but the need to post hate threads on something every day is strong.

No problem with Collinsworth and OBJ catch is still the best catch that I have ever witnessed even though it counted for nothing.

What a great win last night. I loved every second of it. With that being said. Can we discuss how Collinsworth gets away with blatantly disrespecting the Cowboys every time he comments on their games?

If I have to hear about the OBJ catch one more time I may lose my mind. It was years ago and they lost that game. With that said all he kept saying pre game and during the game is how good the Giants were. At one point he said the Giants added a bunch of new weapons for Daniel Jones and that they would be the fastest team on the field. Maybe I am overreacting but its been years of this and I am honestly at the point where I may watch the games on mute when he is in the booth.

Anyways. Rant over. Go Cowboys!
Disrespect?


He was singing our praises on defense all night. Honestly, hes one of the best out there
LOL.

Collinsworth was very effusive about the Cowboys last night. He was drooling all over the defense, for example. Some of you guys really live in this Cowboys bubble. I thought Collinsworth did a really nice job last night. He can't kiss the butt of the Cowboys the entire game. He's gotta say some good things about the opponent too.

Oh and his comment about fastest team, he said the Giants THOUGHT they would be the fastest team on the field. That their offseason goal was to get faster.
Im convinced many Cowboys fans live to be "disrespected". And if they dont get it, then they imagine it

He's terrible. But honestly, can we name more commentators we like than dislike nowadays? Most of them suck. And don't get me started on the talking heads of the sports programs like ESPN etc.. It's hard to watch any of it anymore.

We should really be talking about the terrible halftime crew with Garrett trying to sound charismatic, and that woman who needs to drop 20 lbs and stop wearing those homemade rompers or whatever those outfits are.

He was just talking about the Giants and not disrespecting the Cowboys. I had zero issues with Collings last night.
Not true, every complement he gave the cowboys was followed with some kind of snarky remark. A lot of backhanded compliments.

But what's weird here is that any rational person who listened to that telecast wouldn't come away thinking that Collinsworth disrespected us.

He was positively effusive about us.
If one of our players made a spectacular catch like that, then people would be griping that we're being disrespected for it not being talked about all the time because of a "hate the Cowboys" conspiracy. Lol.

I dont like or agree with Collin... but he has the right of it... Dallas has been nothing but inconsistent for more than 2 decades.

His job is to make the game entertaining and make it seem more competitive than it is.

“This is a horrow show, this game was over halfway through the first quarter. There might be something good on CBS right now that’ll be more engaging than this.”

Or

“Giants are down big but Daboll gives them a resiliency that they’ll never be out of the game. A few good drives and suddenly they’re right back in this.”

He’s paid to do a job for NBC

You hearing what you want? Collins did not slight the Cowboys. In fact he did just the opposite. He was full of high praise for the team.

He's an announcer. Almost all of them blow sunshine up everyone's behind. It's their job to fill time and to make the fans giddy when they are singing your team or players praises. Trying to appease all sides. Simple as that.

Collingsworth predicted a giants win days earlier, then pulled a howard cossell by going on about martin and Steele and Super Bowl contenders. I posted at half time that he predicted a loss for dallas and the moderators removed my post for some reason. Collingsworth hates the cowboys and makes no bones about it. He was talking about how awful the giants beat down was, he was devastated. I am frankly tired of this clowns negativity for dallas.

LOL, Collinsworth was singing Danny Dimes' praises, down 40-0.
He was bad.

I watched the Commanders game and Mark Schlereth was praising Howell and the Commanders like they were the 91 Skins

Collinsworth commentary is some of the best there is imo.
he is a jerk and a biased fool, picking the gmen because he hates dallas. How is that objective? His hatred for dallas ruins his ability to be objective. And then he does the cossell two step heaping praise on the team he picked to lose because he would look like a clown otherwise.
