This is not meant to be a rant, but I would like to hear some opinions on this subject. Considering the lack of success , how is this team maintaining such a strong fanbase? Let's be honest, there are not any band wagon fans fighting to join up as fans and I have trouble seeing why younger fans pick the Cowboys as their favorite team . For us older fans, we have seen the glory years with Landry and Roger, later on it was Jimmy and Troy. Those memories are the only thing that keeps me hanging on. There has to come a point when the fans say enough is enough and the losing and disappointment outweighs team loyalty. What is keeping the fanbase together? I see no reason for a young fan to pull for the Cowboys unless they live in Texas or have connections to the organization . The injury excuses To be honest, the Cowboys have become mirror images of the Raiders or other teams that only have past glory to hold on to . What say you? What is keeping you a fan considering the disorganized mess that the Cowboys have become? I Gould never pull for another team , but I am at the point of losing all interest in the current version of the watered-down version of the NFL. Thoughts?

I share those doubts.

Can't take away what our boys have already accomplished though no matter how long it's been and how many times other fans want to bring up how long it's been.

Because I live in Indiana and I'm not going to be a Colts fan.
