Rocky? Who are you trying to save? Let the losers be losers. You really can't save them anyway. Of course, they will want to be included in the celebration when the Cowboys win it all.
I disagree. I think I can save one or two. Maybe already have. It’s a calling. I have to do it.

Maybe if you ask Reality real nice he will make the "Positivity Zone" where you and the handful of super fans that want to tell everyone one else how to be fans can go play pattie cake until the season ends without us bothering you. Until then the superfan act wore thin long ago. Seriously, you are like ants a picnic. Feel free to put me on ignore.
Since you have quit and given up, maybe you should go support the Mavericks or the Rangers or the hockey team.

Then God bless you, my brother. It's better than you and I taking swings at each other.
Ain’t that the truth. You’ve always exhibited solid morals in all you posts. Well, most of them. Same goes for me. Maybe we can learn some civilian tact in all of this.

No bro, I gotta vent so I can be civilized in the real world.

Never seen a championship from this team, but don't plan on leaving. Heck, my fursuit is going to feature Cowboys stars.

In Dallas’s best interest, the team may be garnering more media attention than even when they were winning Super Bowls.

Everyone knows Jeremy Clarkson’s cars go fast, but his most famous one could very well be the Ford GT he owned that didn’t work right. Thats what sells. Every sob story has a silver lining, though some you have to dig a bit deeper

You get a like solely for that Top Gear reference haha. Well done!

Which is why everyone uses it despite being wrong half the time. More than half of the super bowls, including the last two, featured a team that didn't even make the playoffs the previous season. Did anyone see them coming? No, because people are picking the best teams from last season.

The only solid bet in the NFL is that any team Tom Brady is on will win 10 or more games. You'll probably lay out 10 bucks for every dollar you'll win, but you can still win yourself some money.

Safe bet with the cowboys. Three playoff wins in the last 26 years is not inspiring.

To put it in perspective, the TB Buccaneers won more playoff games last year than we have in a quarter century.

Probably 75% of the threads, posts since the March 15th have been crapping on the Cowboys. And that’s probably conservative. I’ve heard things like “26 more years of mediocrity”, “team has no chance with Jerry”, “team has no chance with Stephen”, “team has no chance with Dak”, etc, etc, etc. It’s like a big sleepover with a bunch of 12 yr old girls. It doesn’t matter the age group, many of the old farts are there with the young farts. It’s been quite entertaining. It’s like they don’t realize that every year a new team goes out there on week 1. Not the team from the previous year, but a new team. And of recent, new coaches. Much needed new coaches.

So my question, is why have all you Haters given up so easily? Why have you quit on the team? Why are you even here since you have?

It’s a new year, with new players, with new coaches. Last year the team experienced the most injuries in one year since I’ve been a fan and that has been since 63. There’s never been as many injuries to key players as last year. So what do you expect after that a damn Super Bowl? Get real. Put down the damn Madden game. Quit watching Stephen A Smith and all the talking heads like him.

This team is on the precipice of great success. When Dak’s been healthy the offense scores points. He’s had 23, 22, 23 and 30 TD’s in his first 4 years and 9 in 4.5 games last year.

Since Dak has taken over the Cowboys average
26.6 pts per game in 2016,
22.7 in 2017,
21.4 in 2018
27.1 in 2019
And over 30 puts per game in 2020 before he got injured.

And that’s with some of the worst defenses overall during those years in the NFL. Defenses that could not get off the field.

So now we have yet again a new DC. One with some great creds. MM is in his 2nd year as the HC. It’s really his first as last year he had no time to implement his culture to the organization because of Covid. Yet the team won 3 out of the last 4 games. With all those critical injuries.

Many of you haters will ***** up until a Super Bowl win and some of you will ***** about certain players performance. You need to take a close look at yourself. Why have you given up? Why have you quit? Every year is different. Don’t quit. Don’t ever, ever give up. Keep fighting or resign yourself to being losers.

My past...where I grew up, I was a baseball player in High School. I was working at a rest restaurant as a dish washer and they had a TV on playing the Dallas Cowboys. I never payed no mind to the Cowboys...I was a catcher. I played for the Highland Hornets in Albuquerque.

Some how or the other, the Highland Hornets beat the Valley Vikings that day in football and it was the exact score when the Cowboys won their game. I really wish I knew that score...

My present, I started my love for the Cowboys at that time.
Go hornets! Class of '87!

There’s a thread with people agreeing that Jason Witten got LP Ladoucer “cut”. This place has lost its mind and just lurches from one bizarre theory to the next.

Why? How can you even ask?

I am a Cowboys fan. I've been a fan for so long that I wouldn't know how not to be.

Being a fan, however, doesn't require that I be deaf, dumb and blind. I can be a fan and a realist at the same time.. Granted, it sucks.

An honest assessment of this team and particularly, the franchise, is extremely painful. This is especially true considering it's storried past.

True, Jerry has tried his best, but the truth is, his best was never even going to be close from the very start. It was absolutely the height of arrogance to even try. As a GM, no credentials, no experience.........no clue. This is not a position that a person can learn. A person earns the position through demonstrated talent confirmed by excellent results at every prior level.

No other team would ever hire him as a GM. Even if they did, he wouldn't have lasted his contract.

The Cowboys had a losing season 3 years after Jimmy Johnason left, the shortest dynasty in NFL history. That was when the GM shoud have been fired, 24 years ago.

I get it, shut up criticising the ineptness of this team over a quarter of a century as its " hating". I will now look at this team with a new found confidence knowing that someone on the internet who spends his/ Her life on this website has told me that because the Cowboys have been insignificant as a contender for a generation I need to readdress my life!

OK I'll get my ra ra skirt and pom poms out of the attic. I apologise for thinking that this circus is still miles away from competing as this is obviously wrong and just pathetic. I now know it's our year. Dont even think about criticising the team or the owners , its not fair or healthy.
No, I will continue to cheer every Sunday for the Boys and praise them for playing well and criticise them for playing badly. I will continue to call out bad decisions on and off the field. I will continue to point out the lack of success until that changes. I will continue to be a Cowboys fan .

This post is like a bat signal to all the Cowboys homers. Just look at who likes his post and realize those are the fans that if we signed Nick Hayden out of retirement tomorrow, they'd call it a shrewd move.
Im sure we called him with with a fair offer. Alot could ride on how much we offered Jeremy Mincey
