Hello everyone,

First I'd like to mention that I've visited this forum often and have found it to be a great place to come and not only get news on the 'Boys, but also a myriad of different topics touching on the many situations that arise during the season, off-season and pre-season. I'm particularly fond of the draft zone, and when I noticed the off-topic thread contained Star Wars and Game of Thrones topics, among others, I knew I was amongst my kinfolk.

In re: to my fandom - I grew up in a Commanders household but was immediately drawn to the Star, as were a few other brave family members. We certainly had it good in the early 90's, and I've been hoping (and still believe) that TR will return us to glory. As a former college athlete (baseball and football), I stayed busy with prep year round, and while I eventually lost the ability (or desire) to routinely follow all of my teams, I never could let go of the Cowboys.

Fast forward a decade or so after college, and as a result of my profession (Investment/Acquisitions Director for a commercial real estate development and asset management firm) I find myself constantly analyzing and playing out multiple scenarios on any given Sunday...and the subsequent week. In my quest to satiate my need for up to the minute knowledge, I eventually stumbled onto this gem of a site. I'm typically a bit reluctant to engage in dialogue as I can be very opinionated, but after finding myself constantly landing on this site and getting immersed in the discussions, debates, and dissertations contained within, I finally decided to take the plunge and risk public humiliation and rejection all in the name of Cowboys comraderie.

I hope I make the cut and that I can add a fresh perspective and some insight as a former athlete and lifelong fan who wants nothing more than to see us back on top.

...also, I absolutely despise Eli Manning. I doubt that's an issue but I thought I'd mention that in the interest of full disclosure.

Thanks all and I hope to engage in some banter soon!
 
No, I've never been on any forums/fan sites as a memebr
There was a poster over there with the same moniker for a long time and I believe he became a mod.

Anyway, welcome and I look forward to telling you just where you're wrong on those opinions because I only deal in facts. Share your disdain for the mouth breather but it has been declared a bird sanctuary. I look forward to an all out Giants hate fest with you next week.
 
Welcome, dude. Be sure to shower before meeting Otis. He can smell fear from a good distance.
 
Welcome Wex, the 1st thing to do to make new friends, GET RID OF RANDY

I look forward to it - I too like to derive my opinions from fact and sound logic; of course that won't necessarily mean we end up drawing the same conclusions but regardless, let the games begin and go Cowboys

I never met a fact I couldn't ignore in order to make a defenseless point.

This section/forum of the board is like that episode from original Star Trek where their in the casino/resort and they find that dead Astronaut's body and journal in one of the rooms. Welcome to Hotel California.
