FEATURED Member Appreciation Thread *** READ THE FIRST POST BEFORE POSTING! ***

[Motorola]

I appreciate DandyDon52 for the 'Just For Fun' points contest this and every season.
1)Clear with the instructions on how to participate
2) Creative with the bonus questions
3) Conscientous in amassing the totals for the many who join in

 

[Pantone282C]

Exactly.

Speaking of Dreadhonkey, since the upgrade, I no longer get messages that read "nobody liked your post".

I don't like your post. There, feel better?

 

[sunalsorises]

No mentions for me. I feel unappreciated.

Kidding aside, I appreciate everyone who takes time to acknowledge my comments and/or reply without personal attacks. To be fair, sometimes I even think some of the insults are ironically funny.

 

[ChuckA1]

I appreciate everyone/anyone who can make their arguments without being disrespectful

 

[Motorola]

I appreciate XXLMike, tomsanders921, SoupcanSam, Reid1boys, nyc-cowboy, Ken, IceBowler, GMO415, Chuck54, bottkeKids, big dog cowboy, Awakened, and the many, many, many other CZers that have as their fan site avatar -- photos or images that show the great, legendary, and iconic players and coaches this franchise has had throughout its existence in the NFL.
I see them and exclaim "wow; let go look up how they became Dallas Cowboys, the longevity of their playing careers, accomplishments and records set ---but also pull up and watch the film clips\videos of their tremendous plays and games.

Yeah, but what was I on the inside of?

 

[tyke1doe]

I’m around, brother. Just lurking. The pandemic seasons really took a toll on my NFL addiction. But winning playoff games is helping to bring it back.

I’ll actually be attending this weekend. I’ll be the one in the blue baseball cap making all the noise.

You got to do something when you're on camera like beat your chest or give rocker sign or something to let us know it's you.

 

[tyke1doe]

Do NOT post anything negative in this thread!

If you post something negative or criticize any member in any manner, you will likely lose access to post until after the playoff game, so I would strongly suggest you think before you post!

---

I thought it would be nice for everyone to show their appreciation for one or more members here for the things they add and contribute to the site.

The Rules

• Do NOT post anything negative about any member in any way.
• You can list more than one member.
• You MUST state a reason why you appreciate each member you list.
• This is NOT a "list my friends" thread so only list members you believe help make this site better by what they post and contribute to the site!
• You can list staff members (not me), but only for their non-staff-related posts!

Which member(s) do you appreciate on this site and why?

I hope you keep this thread active for a while.

 

[TexasBoys2288]

I appreciate pretty much all the members on this site, even if we sometimes disagree and throw barbs and other sharp instruments at each other. Heh.

I must agree others that I enjoy reading BobHayes' posts, very well thought out.

 

[catiii]

Everyone is awesome in their own way so I wouldn't dream of making a list and leaving people out. The people here make this a fun place
for good company and to share our views w other Cowboys fans.

 

[shabazz]

There’s too many to name, but a few that come to mind..,

Runny, G2, Couch Coach, London, Cowpolk, CapnB, for their wit and humor—quality dudes, and true wordsmiths.

Bob Hayes for his level head and spot on observations.

Dandy for his dedication to JFF.

My Buddy Ranched (Daboysruleperiod) for her friendship, cat pics and PSU.

Ranching, a nice guy with experience and common sense—simply an old school fan.

My pal Kskboys, who showed me the ropes at the old forum.

…and several others I didn’t mention, because I’ll write my memoirs later…✊

I would have listed the same cats…..Perfect list.

also kudos to @CouchCoach and @Bobhaze for excellent level headed moderation as well as their posts

 

[Reverend Conehead]

@Bobhaze

His posts are high quality analysis, better than people who do this for a living.

 

[basel90]

I appreciate
@CaptainCrash
@PAPPYDOG
@MountaineerCowboy
@john van brocklin
@Reality
@BrAinPaiNt-
@CowboyFrog
@Fletch

and many others who built this site and members who are realistic and not afraid to criticize some team members and FO who have done a crappy job every now and then

at the end , the Cowboys should NEVER go 27 years without a super bowl. If everything was great , or near normal this drought would never have happened


GO DALLAS COWBOYS

You’ll know me by the CowboyZone tattoo on my forehead.

 

[kskboys]

You’ll know me by the CowboyZone tattoo on my forehead.

Not to mention the extreme gorgeousness and smile that kills!!!!

 

[Blackrain]

I appreciate Bobhaze. He is just flat out the best of the best should have his own sports talk show.

I appreciate AC because he and I usually agree on most things
I appreciate Rockport because no matter how frustrated I am with the cowboys Rockport can always put a good spin on it
Have to appreciate Marcus Rock no matter how corrupt I think the referees are he can somehow justify it and we can have a very respectful debate.
KSK is great we both crave a giant dominant defensive tackle. Runny is spot on and great to read.
I still appreciate Don's pictures from the old site they were really something to look forward to.
They're all good go Cowboys!!!!

 

[Idgit]

Not to mention the extreme gorgeousness and smile that kills!!!!

I’m very handsome and have many of my front teeth, yes. Go Cowboys.

 

[visionary]

Too many to post individually
I appreciate all the members on CZ even those I disagree with at times
Esp appreciate the moderators who gave a really tough job

 

[CouchCoach]

I would have listed the same cats…..Perfect list.

also kudos to @CouchCoach and @Bobhaze for excellent level headed moderation as well as their posts

Oh, if only Mrs. CC were still around to see her husband, even with a fake moniker, and the words "level headed" used in the same sentence without the word "not" used, she would cry for happy.

 

[CouchCoach]

As a moderator, I want to thank all of those members that do not take the bait and stay above the fray. You make this a lot easier by your restraint and that illustrates the proprietary feeling that this site invites.

Reality may own it but it is really ours and that's the way he wants it. I do not have much experience with other sports sites but I cannot imagine one any better or a better gathering of people.
