I agree. Football is still in the early stages over seas and while they are not great at it right now over time I expect that to change. People need to remember that it was not long ago that Americans looked like monkeys making love to a soccer ball, now the soccer program in the US is coming on strong and we see more US player in europe playing soccer.

I never intended to be dismissive. I just thought the pix were amusing.

Had it been a fan of another team I'd delete it, and wonder if I should anyway.

Naw, he's just leaving off the end of the word... dropping the 2nd syllable. No big deal, really.

Unless, of course, you are talking about the TITans.

I didn't realize Jared Lorenzen was out of the NFL.

You should know by now I want what's best for the COWBOYS, and that I love my DALLAS COWBOYS, I just don't agree with the way Jerry Jones runs the football aspects of the football team.

I don't doubt your loyalties even a little bit, which is why it's surprising you'd choose to employ a name for them that trolls employ in an effort to be insulting...

And no I didn't intend for it to be offensive, by calling them the "Cows", it's just shorter to type.

"Cows" is no shorter than "Boys", which a lot of us use as shorthand for our favorite team, and has no negative connotations whatsoever...

I really don't care if you think I'm a troll,

Never said you were a troll, I simply said you were using a term that trolls use... I'm quite sure you don't mean it in the same way they do, but nevertheless, it IS used to insult us fans... when Randy Galloway uses it, he's tryin' to be a smarta$$...

I pointed that out to you on the off chance that you didn't realize it was used in a negative way, which is apparently the case... I wasn't angry or anything, merely pointing out a fact...

You kinda read an agenda into my words that wasn't there...

Someone woke up with a little spice in there posts lol.

I don't think SB was calling you a troll, i think he was just asking if you knew what that word meant

Precisely... but I can understand how he could have interpreted things the way he did... we have had our set-tos before, he and I...

I don't think you should do that, Hos... I think he doesn't really mean it the way it comes off... but maybe now that he's seen that I'm not the only one who reads a negative connotation into that particular word, he might take my observation a bit more seriously...

It's not really surprising that he wouldn't take kindly to such an observation coming from ME, and I rather expected a defensive reaction...

I didn't realize it was meant to be insulting, sorry.

Yeah I guess I took it wrong, since the last time we spoke it wasn't friendly. But thanks for the advice, I didn't know it was meant to be a offensive term. I guess I don't read too much of the troll's stuff to know that it was. Sorry for taking what you said outta context.:)

Which is pretty much what I figured...

Listen, just because you and me have argued in the past, it doesn't mean I'm gonna ALWAYS look to pick a fight with you... I'm just not the type to hold a grudge, and I can even argue with my buddies online...

I'm versatile that way...

No apologies are necessary at all, wild man... it's perfectly understandable, given our history, that you'd conclude I was gettin' in your face...
