I thought the believe thing was beneath the Cowboys and should be reserved for the Eagles or some team that's never won a Super Bowl.

HOw bout stopping them on 3rd down. Or the other 4th down.

It was cheap, but, oh well, what can they do. They got whooped like dogs and all hell will come down on the Vikings next Sunday when they get the **** and piss knocked outta them in New Orleans. ..

What was Romo supposed to do? If he doesn't go up or acknowledge the darling of the NFL, He is a poor sport, sore loser, etc.

I am a sore loser, and a poor sport. And, especially after the way the Vikings rub their noses in it? ****, no way in hell I would be talking to a soul in purple.

****ing Ratliff smiling at the end pissed me off more then what Romo did.

The ****ing team should of walked of the field. Two middle fingers in the air and left. Not saying one "yo dog, props to ya" or the hugging **** or anything.

But, most these players are just here for a paycheck, period.

what your describing is not about paychecks, its about relationships.

You have to remember all these guys didnt just appear out of nowhere and land on a roster. They all have grown up playing pee-wee, high school and college football with guys from around the league. Their families have relationships off the field.....

the end of the game embracing is not about paychecks, its about sportsmanship and relationships and even in their own grief they wish the best for these guys they know from many different areas and times of their life.

Your totally misreading like many are. everyone in the locker room gave all the credit to the vikings for playing a tremendous game defensively. I havent heard one player tonight say anything different. Not one.

but there is a certain point where everyone knows your beat and you tip your hat and get it over, keep everyone healthy and move on. They pulled a real stupid move today. They accomplished everything they needed to.

What they did had nothing to do with the spirit of competition or what team sports are about. Nothing. And it is upsetting because every fan knew who the better team was, they earned their victory in spades.

and as far as you ripping on the believe thing, it shows that your are a pompous jerk. That was all about unity and us stopping the bickering, there are many people jumping on this bandwagon to start ripping that.

Your suprising me with that just like some others are tonight. You always act like you take this high and mighty road, even in this topic you are doing that telling people to get over themselves with favres td.......then you turn around and poke fun at the believe thing....which again was a plea for unity behind the team from all fans.

Pretty sad. Tough losses show true colors and alot of fans are appearing to be the gutless mouthy types they love to claim this team is.
Exactly.

Except that with the OP, it's not really surprising.

You're reading way to much into this. I joked and stayed basically quiet for the last two weeks. I had a real bad feeling about today, but stayed quiet to let others enjoy their believes. I have zero faith in Phillips as a HC, but he made me swing just a bit over the last few weeks.
Unfortunately we looked totally unprepared for today's game. So instead of looking at what the real problems were our fans and a few players decided to point to a late "cheap" TD.
Looks more like a deflection of blame than accepting responsibility for a well under prepared team to me. When does that stop?

Marty B is a joke. If he spent as much time practicing his routes as he spent making idiotic posts on Twitter and Youtube, he might have made an impact this season.

It's really amazing how people will completely miss the point. No one ever tried to pass this play off as the reason we lost the game or to sidestep the criticism of how poorly our team played today. I have no idea how you could have followed this thread and came to that conclusion.

And it makes you look foolish complaining about a team running up the score when you couldn't stop them from running up the score.

That's one of those things were you keep your mouth close and retain a long memory.

As for my comments about the belief thing, Cowboys believers were just as pompous, criticizing anyone who picked the Vikings to beat the Cowboys -or did you miss the endless threads knocking those experts who "believed" the Vikings would beat the Cowboys.

Moreover, who do you guys think you are declaring that you are the only "true" Cowboys fans and others who criticize the team are "jerks"?

We all handle victory and defeat different ways. Who are you to say how someone should react to a loss?

Talk about pompous and high and might. Next time, I'll get your permission on how I should react to a loss. :rolleyes:

I bet it's a lot of fun to play pick-up basketball with you.

Ratliff smiling at the end makes you mad? He was probably talking to a friend who was simply doing what his coaches told him to do. Oh no, the outrage. Sportsmanship is something that extends to every level of sports, from small time to the bigs and it's something that you show even when the opponent doesn't. That's especially true after all of the physical contact is over.

It's not a matter of paychecks, it's a matter or perspective.

Not to nitpick, but in 2007 the Cowboys went to the divisional round too via a first round bye. So prediction not really fulfilled. Might want to seek arbitration, though. :cool:

Winning a playoff game puts you one step closer whether it's the wild card round or the divisional round.

The Cowboys hadn't one a playoff in 13 years. They won one this year. Yes, they did get further than they had before because the bottom line still is winning.

You do whatever you feel you have to do, you have shown your true colors to me. And again, I didnt use the word true cowboys fans, in fact the believe thing was meant to fly in the face of nonsense like that, it was about unity with all of us.

Too bad some of us are too concerned with being happy when we lose because it makes them feel good to be right on a message board.

I don't think any one felt good about today's loss. I was shocked at how bad it was. I admit I expected a very close game win or lose. Not a complete blow out. How long will this window stay open under this staff? We didn't grab the brass ring when it was in our grasp. We fell off the horse.
That is what I'm worried about, not a late meaningless TD by the Vikings.
Who's missing the boat here?
