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?
Dude, you're way too sensitive. Troy is pretty much calling an even game. You all are still hurt because he was "moving past the star" or whatever comment he made like that.

Think about all the kids on this page who never got to hear the legendary Summerall & Brookshier broadcast an NFL game.
Don't forget that duo that called AFL and AFC games on NBC back then ---- Curt Gowdy and Al DeRogatis.

Appreciate Troy for everything he did for us including being the coach ( it wasn’t Switzer) during the 3rd Super Bowl run. I won’t bad mouth him.

Aikman was being honest about a lot of the plays yesterday. He kept showing how receivers were open, yet weren't given the ball. He sounds like he's frustrated with Dak. LOL
Thats exactly what he was doing. Also frustrated with running the ball up the middle when it wasn't working. Bashing Mccarthy a little too.

I thought he was drunk last night.

Troy doesn't hate Dallas, but I think sometimes he tries a little too hard to not be biased and it comes as if he's being a little biased against the Cowboys.

What? :facepalm: So I guess he failed to see Dak being forced out of the pocket almost all game? The O-line played terribly. Both the running game and the passing game suffered from it. How many times did we see a free man coming at Dak?

Troy is a professional . He 's gonna follow the company line and that's be less than complimentary towards Dallas. I don't expect him to do anything more then what he does.

I mean if he did Dallas hater Buck would make things very difficult for him. I don't think he's a hater of Dallas. He's just a corporate Man.

I'm not going to single Troy out when he 's just one of many in today's media.

I think Aikman is a great announcer, however, it does become obvious that he goes so far out of his to not sound biased towards Dallas that it comes off as bias against the Cowboys.
