If you only knew what I just went through for an hour. The Local News station posted that meme I posted above and went on for 20 seconds insinuating we cheated. Well, me and a bunch of the Dallas Cowboys Fan in Houston group went on their page. I posted a very well written paragraph about responsible journalism. And the Texans came OUT of the woodwork. One girl even posted my PROFILEphoto and said we can see your bra - how is that classy? I mean I would NEVER make a football debate personal like that! I finally peaced out. But if anyone has facebook and wants some entertainment enjoy.......

You finished the fight in there, Houston. Well done

Social media has emboldened people due to it's anonymity factor. People will say the most outrageous and ridiculous things knowing they're hiding in the shadows. The trouble is, younger people seem to be failing to draw the lines and it's spilling over into personal social etiquette.

That or people are just getting more rude and stupid. I swear the average EQ is plummeting.

Well said. It wasn't this bad even in 2007 it feels like....

I live in the philly area (about 45 minutes south of the stadium). You said something I have felt for a long time. The Eagles fans are obsessed with the Cowboys...they care more about what we are doing than what happens in their games. I'm sure you heard Angelo Cataldi on 610 WIP today calling for an investigation with Mayor Ed Rendell. These guys are pathetic. The Eagles fans have not been happy or content for way too long. It's Bizzare.

A total obsession with Dallas.....I am used to it, yet find it amazing!! WIP is all about shock talk, I pay it no mind, yet if I am listening I find it comical that callers actually take heed and believe what is being talked about.... some (majority) Eagle fans are delusional!! my in laws included, who live and bleed green..

Oh the level of Dallas hate is through the roof right now. The haters are hating in full force in my neck of the woods (Pennsylvania). It's worse now than what it has been in a long time.

I think it's because so many of our rivals' fans legitimately expected us to be like 3-13 this year. Surprise!

My UPS guyguy (long time Steelers fan) that I'm decent friends with saw me shoveling snow this morning and made a point to stop in the middle of the street, turn off his engine, and tell me how sorry the Cowboys were; how the whole NFL is rigged. I simply held up both my arms and yelled, "How bout them Cowboys?"

Well this forum was founded in 2006 I believe and some of the comments around here over the years have been jaw dropping. Of course social media was well on it's way to ludicracy long before that. Facebook has taken it to the next level. Hell, teens are committing suicide over peer pressure.

Got to say these Mod's have there hands full.

I'm in DC and haters here, between the Skins and the Steelers, don't want to talk football at all. Love it.

Yep...steelers fans in my area all of a sudden got lock jaw. That or they got their jaws wired shut for some special diet or something. hehe

I know. How ironic. :rolleyes:

My father-in-law, a die-hard Stealers fan swears up and down that the NFL has a bias against them; that refs are always screwing them; etc. etc.

I know I feel that way about my Cowboys from time to time, but c'mon, every year it seems that the Stealers are the darlings of the NFL.

Jersey here as well and everything you said is spot on.

Proves the whole America's Team thing that people love to discount. Only teams that can sit at our table who get similar across the board hate are the Yankees, Lakers,maybe Duke.....Embrace it. It's called respect.
