Hey Cowboy fans

[AsthmaField]

Hmmm, convincing. Might just be my new avatar... oh, with your permission, of course. Crazy Ray was the man!

By the way, if you guys think my avatar (or lack there of) sucks, hell, just come out and say it. Don't beat around the bush.

Your avatar, while substantially better than a Roseanne Barr picture, is somewhat less than desirable.

You're avatar, while substantially better than a Roseanne Barr picture, is somewhat less than desirable.

That is a a nice and considerate way of stating it **. Thought provoking, and at the same time, sensitive to the complex inner feelings of a fellow fan who has now come to the realization that an avatar-change is in order. That's why you are one of my favorites,bro. I.Love.You.Man.

I am nothing if not sensitive.

Somebody find me a tissue...

I can't go along with both of those people as ok for an avatar... Roseanne Barr is clearly unacceptable.

OK, I should have been more reasonable and replaced Roseanne with Hitler.

How in the h... can a team that hasn't won anything in 20 years have bandwagon fans? Please explain that to me.

Really? They were coming out of the woodwork last year and now this year. They're everywhere and many on this board.

Are you implying that I'm insensitive.

That's how it always works.

Back in 1992 before any of the Jerry era Super Bowls I was practically alone at Cowboys training camp. A few years later and attendance was in the 10 to 20 thousand range.

Most middle school football practices have more people in attendance than what was in TC back in 1992.

There ya go.

The only thing I can surmise is that the kids and casual fans like it(it's entertainment). Not every fan is about X's and O's and strategy like the fine members of CZ. Bottom line..they do not focus on the intricacies of the game, but rather focus more on the game day/training camp experience in general, if that makes sense. Me? I really wish I could do that. However, emotions and the desire to win get the best of me. Lol

Ok it's one thing to do it off on the side and create a show but to interrupt practice? Pretty sure the coaches did not like that at all.

I just think you don't care enough about my needs the way you used to...and it hurts, ******! I swear, I just don't know you anymore, you've changed.

Seriously, you're an intelligent Cowboys fan, so you will always be alright with me, bro. As I said before, this board is the greatest!!

 

[AsthmaField]

Your sensitivity nearly rivals my own.

Although I did find it strange that my wife looked over my shoulder a few posts back and nearly strained an oblique laughing at my "I am nothing if not sensitive" remark.

I told her that I thought that was insensitive.

Yeah, I agree. I joke around and have fun about Rowdy, but you are right. He is definitely annoying and disruptive sometimes. Lol

 

[WoodysGirl]

I've heard the guy from back then was fired and replaced but I can't confirm that or when it happened.

Fwiw... http://www.nbcdfw.com/blogs/blue-star/Missing-Mascot-Reported-Fired-64084687.html

Wade Phillips didn't care as long as Rowdy continued to bring him donuts.

I will agree that I wish the CowboysZone would have picked a better default avatar. Seeing a bunch of Rowdys does make me angry lol. but maybe they picked the most annoying one to get people to change it.

 

[Blackspider214]

True. If one coach didn't mind, it was him.

I would guess Parcells would have punched him in the mouth had he did it with him.

Good point. And they also add a reminder strongly recommending that you should change your avatar. ,lol

The guy that got fired is Ted Ovletrea. It appears that the Mavericks have hired him to be their "Mascot Manager".

This is the photo that comes up for him:

I seem to recall as story about Parcells banning him from being at practice.
