Nothing at all save laughing even harder at the Dak turds on here.Hypothetical. I knocked on wood. No jinxes.
A win would be the sweetest of all. It feels better to fight adversity and come out on top imo. This team has been doubted, left for dead, and even mocked. Nobody thought we could do what we did with Prescott out. But we held our own with Rush. Nobody ever thought we would break the Brady curse. But we did. It seems we play better when backed into a corner. Personally, it would show that, just like in life, things are not determined on paper. A great or bad performance one week does not necessarily predict the next week. A Cowboys SB win would show mental toughness and resolve. I need resolve in my life. The ability to overcome adversity. Maybe my football team winning (Or getting close) it all could lead me to overcome the odds.
The great thing about our sport is that regular season success does not necessarily equate to a guaranteed title. It's also what can be so tragic. There are so many variables (Matchups, officiating, Injuries, coaching, and luck) that determine the outcome of a game. Simply having a more talented team on paper is not enough. Not in the cap era. Otherwise, the Rams annihilate the Patriots in Super Bowl 36. Patriots go 19-0. We get to the Super Bowl in 07. The best team isn't the team that always wins it.
The more success you have, the higher the expectations. To not meet those expectations hurts.
Losing a Super Bowl would hurt. It would not be devastating sans a Saints non call situation or Falcons type collapse. But it would hurt for a bit. Because if we get there, it will feel like we are a team of destiny. Sometimes, however, it does not work out that way.
So, how would a potential Cowboys SB win/loss this year impact you?
just winning this game today is all we need to at least quiet the 27 years crowd and bust even more narratives..getting to a SB would be awesome but not effect me one way of anther in my regular life other then added happiness and pride the Boyz got back there..Hypothetical.

This. When the Mavs won in 2011, it was very fun in the moment right when it happened. And even the aftermath the day after. But after that? Meh. Life went on as normal.It wouldn't
Well, then it'll be all about how McCarthy won it in spite of the Joneses.My life? Not much.
My existence on this board? Very much so. My biggest issue has always been that I believe Jerry has been a mediocre GM who has no clue how to build a SB caliber team on his own. If they win a SB, that puts it all to rest.
Then why are you posting here, instead of on a "This is what's wrong with America" board?I'm more worried about the state of the country right now than a football game.
AMEN. The game is just a nice temporary distraction.I'm more worried about the state of the country right now than a football game.
I do. I'm very involved in that area.Then why are you posting here, instead of on a "This is what's wrong with America" board?
Now that I've contracted an aggressive Cancer and moving soon to Palliative Care, it would mean the WORLD to me...Hypothetical. I knocked on wood. No jinxes.
