Why the hate? Maybe it's because we're so popular, huh? Think about it -- how many NFL teams are able to be mediocre for almost two decades, yet somehow still remain in the public eye on such a constant basis? There's just something about the Cowboys that keep folks coming back for more. Gotta say, I'm kinda liking it, myself.

My lifelong observation is this. I have run into a LOT of fans who gain great joy in the following on Sunday:
  1. Their team winning
  2. The Cowboys losing
#2 on the list almost makes those fans feel 'OK' about #1.

Just the way it is.

My FB gets flooded when Cowboys lose and it's not directed to me as a Cowboys' fan. It's their genuine joy of the Cowboys' loss. I don't see that with any other team.

Just about every non-Cowboys NFL fan knows at least one lifelong Cowboys fan personally whether it be family member, friend, co-worker, etc. The same can't be said for any other team outside their home market.

The sad thing is that many Cowboys fans hate their own team worse than many fans of other teams. They may only hate one or two aspects of the team, but they'll hate on the team and gloat after every loss more so than the fans of our most hated rivals, so it's no wonder the Cowboys are so hated.

Cowboys are definitely the most loved/hated.

I do think this year is the first year I recall reading as national news that the stadium has become a haven for opposing team fans. I don't recall this before.

It is much better to be hated than to be ignored..............................nobody is making up videos about Cleveland.

They just set the record for the largest road comeback in NFL history and you barely heard a peep about it out of the media, they treated it like a freaking footnote.

Why? Because nobody gives a dam what the freaking Cleveland Browns do, unless you live in Ohio you probably will not even watch them play one single time this year.

For all the young people out there that never knew what Cowboys winning is like, let me educate you.

If we were to win the SB, every station will lead with us, all over yahoo, the media will not be able to get enough Cowboys talk. Just check all over sports internet, there's always something about the Cowboys in it. American media would practically blow up. It's pretty insane how much attention this team gets when they're good.
