Every time aikman announces for one of our games, I laugh uncontrollably.

The man hates Dallas so much, yet he was our guy in the 90’s.

I mean seriously, every time Dallas got a first down or made a good play I would hear, “that was nice, but…” or “and you see here, I mean it was a great throw but the timing was awful”

Kind of a laughing stock if you ask me. Stephen A Smith likes us more than Aikman! I understand him being less than happy about how it all ended with Johnson, and their downfall etc, but come on.

What do you think his issue is?

I think the guy is a professional announcer who takes his emotions out of the game when he is in the booth. Just because he isn't a Michael Irvin type doesn't mean he does or doesn't still love the Cowboys. Honestly, I think he calls a pretty good game, and there was plenty last night worthing calling the Cowboys out on.

I've felt that way about Troy for awhile, but I think he's was getting at MMs offense last night. Basically Dak was making plays, and the scheme was non-existent

He knows nobody in the current organizations, from the time jimmy was fired, is in it to win it like when jimmy was HC.
The current organization talks like they will do whatever it takes to win championships but we all know differently as long as Jerry is running the show. That's why Troy is the way he is and I don't blame him one bit.

Jimmy Johnson. Troy has a big issue with Jerry over that. He still loves the Cowboys though, he still is upset Fox didn’t get the Cowboys/49ers playoff game two seasons ago.

He certainly doesn't seem to hate Dallas. At worst, he seems disappointed in them, which is a sign that he wants them to succeed. He's very quick to admonish bad play, but he's also very quick to praise good play, such as the TD throw and catch to Cooks.

The issue lies with you, not Aikman......He calls it the way he sees it, and there's plenty to complain about watching this offense.....He's a three time Superbowl champion and MVP, Hall of Famer and a Cowboys Ring of Honor inductee, I think he knows more of what's going on during a game than you or I. If you want to listen to a bleeding heart Cowboy fan, then listen to Michael Irvin, who I find insufferable with his love affair.

The issue is people who didn't live through the late 80's and 90's and didn't see what football meant to players back then. The mentality was different. Stephen A. Smith?? You do realize that's just some tool paid to pretend to hate the Cowboys, right?

He seems off on the broadcast. I cant put my finger on it but something about the way he delivers his points etc. He just seems off

Troy knows where and when the downfall of this team started. He knows the crux of the problem is the owners of the team, the Joneses

Good point, maybe all the hate is directed at JJ and not the team specifically
