Dak Lovers Forum

[Captain-Crash]

Coming from a flaming always negative hater, thank you. Proves I’m doing my job well.

I try hard to remain in the top 5 haters.

We know and it’s pathetic.

A hater forum would be fun, you can come in too since you like to hate everything too. You'd probably get to be a hater mod.

He sure seems like a grumpy fella. If he admits it he would say it's from the stupidity. But he keeps coming back. After the wins anyway.

 

[BoysForLife]

ah, did this post hit a nerve?

It appears to have done so

He also appears to have no sense of satire. I thought your post was great satire but the targets if the satire are too busy being self righteous to have a good laugh at themselves

Not a Dak lover, but not loving the alternative at this point either.

Why does everything have to be binary?

Yes, there are some for whom Dak can do no wrong and others for whom nothing he does is right. I think the majority of Cowboys fans are in the "Dak is the QB and I want the Cowboys to win, so I hope he plays well enough for them to win" category. It's not as if anything we say here will change his status. It's out of our hands.

 

[Captain-Crash]

yep we all loved jason garrett too. he was awesome just like dak.

I imagine anyone that doesn’t constantly talk trash about Dak will be labeled by some as a “Lover”.

Makes me laugh, mostly

That's what the poll showed that was done on here. The huge majority of fans think Dak is decent, not great or horrible.

Sure. And anyone who points out any flaw is labeled a Hater.

Very very silly argument that the good posters mostly stay out of.

Of course we do. I refer to those who do nothing but emphasize the flaws.

No one said either of those things, especially me, whose post was directly before yours.

But feel free to just post strawmen into the wind. It's what Overtime Zone was built for.

 

[Captain-Crash]

throw in an obtuse too that will make it sounds smarter, lol

 

[Reality]

wonder if the mods would make an "I'm in Love with Dak forum"? AC, Ken, my little pony, and the rest of the lovers could go in there and not clutter up the fan's forum with their love crap.

Sounds good, let's get it done. They need a place to post their love and affection for dak. They can post pictures of dak without a shirt, and his football field, and maybe even set up a date with dak night contest. I'm sure dak would love to hang out with some of these creepers and stalkers.

Mods can this be done?

We have tried player-specific forums in the past but they never work.

If it's a pro-player forum, anti-player fans will go there just to harass the people who are posting.

If we ban them from the forum then they simply seek out those posters in the Fan Zone and harass them there.

The diehard Dak homers and Dak haters are equally annoying to most members.

People think the loudest voices support their "side" but in reality, most members here just want everyone to stop the endless arguing over opinions that are clearly not going to change from those arguments.

But what is a diehard DakHomer? Someone who does nothing but endlessly praise? Don’t see any of those.

It is very obvious .. it means fans who constantly post pro-Dak posts or fans who argue with other fans who are posting anti-Dak posts. The same goes for Dak haters.

You can post pro-Dak posts or anti-Dak posts and not be a homer or a hater, but if most of the posts you make, especially those in arguments with other members, are supporting one side, then you fall into that category on one side or the other.

I disagree. If you see the flaws and mention them without dwelling, you’re neutral. Just because you question someone who says nothing but negative, doesn’t make you a “Homer”. That ‘s generally a negative term that connotes someone clueless.

Each side sees only the other side as the problem so thank you for proving my point.
