First, can we all agree that this franchise should be moved to the USFL. They are now perennially at the bottom of the leagues in every category except one, franchise value. Jerry is working overtime to suck every nickel from the fans. Got to give it to him, he learned from PT Barnum. There is a sucker born every minute and collectible they have propped up this sorry excuse for a team.
Second, the team does not care about winning and they
Lack an embarrassment gene. They get abused and they are seen laughing on the sideline. Not one or two but a bunch of them.
Three, if you call out the team you get called a traitor, a hater, a turncoat and worst of all not a real fan as if being a real fan is getting smoke blown up your backside and thinking this is right and proper. “Thank you sir, may I have another “ being the only proper response.
Three, Schottenheimer is awful. He may be the worst coach we have seen and that includes my least favorite of all, the Red Clapper. I don’t think he is a bad fellow, he just is another puppet to the puppet master. He is enjoying his time in the HC position where he gets to say dumb things and he thinks it sounds right. “The answered are in the room,”. “we have to clean up some issues”. “We have the answers, we just need to execute.”
Chris Collingsworth said plainly on National TV that the Cowboys players have to play. Tirico egged him on to explain, but Chris is no fool. He won’t get in Jerry’s crosshairs so he backpedaled a bit. How can you blame the players when the coaching staff is not putting them in a position to make plays.
The Offense is taking a cue from the defense. They are regressing. We thought we only had a defensive problem. Ha, our GOTIS has scored 29 points total in the last two games. And Schotty, the make believe HC asks to get the ball first last night?? Has he not seen this offense struggle at the beginning of every game? Predictively, the GOTIS went three and out. That set the tone for the game.
The Packers dropped 3 sure TDs. The score should have been much worse reflecting the clueless defense and the unimaginative offensive play calling.
Watching this team is not fun or entertaining. I do it out of a sense of loyalty and routine. I have watched this team for decades. I have been to every Cowboys Super Bowl in the nineties. They were heady years and loads of fun.
Jerry has made a lot of money off the backs of hard working people. The people who are fans and supporters have been loyal to the franchise, some how tolerating the Jones’ abusive behavior, raising prices while providing a worsening product nearly each year.
Nonetheless, the fans keep rooting and hoping, even in the face of glaring fact to the contrary, that they will some how get better.
On a personal basis, I have stopped supporting this franchise financially more than ten years ago. I don’t understand why others do not do the same. But that is their prerogative. It is baffling to me but I guess people need to belong to something bigger that they can look to for enjoyment or community. I don’t know how that works for others but being a fan of an embarassing franchise is not much fun.
For decades I have watched every down of every play the Cowboys have been involved in for many decades. Last season and this I have turned the game off as early as the half time. Last night was such an example. I have watched this team to know when they have stopped trying to win. Last night was perhaps the worst example of a team that has given up. Schottenheimer has lost the team. There are a few players that are playing better but most are either just poor players or just do not care about winning. They are check cashiers and celebrities, not football players. They do not deserve fan loyalty and they do not get mine.
That is about it. The experience of being a fan of the Dallas Cowboys is a losing its allure. If it does not make you happy and instead it makes you displeased, why continue?
I am aware that no one cares if I, or anyone else stops watching the team play and stops following the team activities and analysis.
Some will call me names and tell me to troll another team. It is out of frustration that I write this long winded and maybe be boring post. But it is cathartic.
I am out. If the product improves maybe I return, until then. God speed and blessings all around.
