I'm Proud of this Resilient Football Team

Say what you will, but a win is a win. We could have performed better but when you get in the huddle and you're down, who rang the bell? That's right! Our Dallas Cowboys delivered against a division rival. That had to hurt. Keep believing Boys. We have something special here. And it's only gonna get better from here on out. Rapped them in the face. Stole their thunder. We don't quit. Ever! Where's my Kool Aid?

I really enjoyed the faith you displayed in this team last night in the chat room. As some of our more pessimistic posters on this forum started to write the entire season off in the 4th quarter of the first game of the season, you continued to encourage us that we would be victorious. I admit, when the giants had first and goal from the one, I didn't think we could stop them from there and the game was over. but once Eli's pass fell incomplete, I knew Romo was going to give us a chance to win this. I texted a friend of mine before the FG was kicked that Romo would have us inside the 20 with 4 attempts to win the game and I love those odds. Of course him being a Cowboy hater told me the odds were better that he would choke than win the game....needless to say, I didn't hear from anymore last night.

You're right BP. And they never should be taken for granted. I don't believe we take any game for granted. I'm confident that our coaching staff feels the same way. If anyone on the team feels that way they should get the boot. There's no time for resting easy. When it's showtime, you go in with every ounce of what's inside of you. Anyone can be beat on any given day. It's up to all 53 to make sure that doesn't happen. Trust me, it's not just you.

Agreed....you never take an opponent for granted (especially a division rival). I don't believe the coaches or the players did either. Sometimes, games just have a strange bounce to them...this is one of those games....just ask Linehan

quote of the night probably goes to Scott Linehan. "It was a weird game." Yeah, just a little bit.

I appreciate the kind words. In my world, there is no quit. There is no die. i know what this team has to offer and I try to encourage victory, rather than defeat. Call me a homer. I wear the tag proudly. I love talking to fans such as yourself. I love the never say die attitude. I live in Jersey where Giants fans are rampant. I don't razz. I don't disrespect. I let our team's actions say my words. I walk away with a smile. We have a long way to go. The road isn't simple. But we're going in with a positive attitude, and a gleam in our eye. If you go into a fight without the will to win, you've already lost. I will never be that guy. You will never be that guy, if I understand you correctly. We're gonna fight DinDC. You can bet your *** we're gonna fight this through!
