People don't learn from history

The headlines to this thread should be "Do the Cowboys learn from Success?"

When you lose your runningback that got you to a 12-4 season and not replace it with anyone in the draft than your gonna have serious issues.

McFadden, Randle and Dunbar is not going to force 9 people into the box like Murray. Will be seeing a lot of teams playing the pass instead and not respecting our run.

Wait, so what are suggesting? We take it out back so the kids don't hear?



Why on earth it that so important to you? That is kind of insulting to them if you believe you need to be a minister of information to them so they can figure out what I am all about.

If you have that much of a concern for me or what I post, there is a little button that can help you deal with your insecurity or annoyance with me. It is endorsed by the moderation as a method to deal with your problem. I suggest you take it. Or don't. I don't care.



"Cause"? LOL

What is that? To calm the children who can't think for themselves?



No bullying here, so please drop the victim routine.

I gave you advice earlier, take it if it is such a problem to you . Or moreover quit replying to my posts.

I'm saying that instead of attacking me mindlessly you should realize there are others here. You get so angry and its obvious.

I'm obviously taking the victim angle. . . .

It's important to me because I love this site and post here every day.

I am not going to put you on ignore because I want to participate in the narrative and help shape it. You have your approach and I have mine.

And yes I am trying to show people how you operate and demonstrate your level of credibility. You can deride that too but again it serves to underscore my point.

And yeah it is bullying. I do it too although not nearly to the extent and breadth of you and the banned club. Demeaning people that you disagree with is straight up classical conditioning bullying. You definitely do not seem big on introspection.

We have an audience. That is what you never seem to get in these exchanges. I am not speaking to you to convince you but to demonstrate how you operate to others. You certainly are helping my cause. Go ahead and take a derisive shot at me again; your interwebs bullying routine is so cool.

Fred, Martin, Tyron, Leary, and Free will force heavy boxes. They still stacked the box when Randle went in you know.
 
I finally get you, Fuzzy. Silly me.

It is all about the audience.

Thats because the other team knew we were running. The question to ask is will they stack the box consistently like they did with Murray with McFadden or Randle being the featured back?

That is okay, Fuzzy. You have worked very hard to build a lot of credibility around here recently that you want to maintain.

Apparently it is very important to you to maintain that "street cred".

I promise I won't try to threaten that fact when you hurl a grenade my way.

It is all in good fun.

Carry on.

But stop it with the weak "bullying" thing. Trust me, if I really wanted to "bully" you, it would be a lot more obvious than replying to you when you reply to me. Especially when, by your own words, you want to show everyone what I am all about.

I'm not even talking to you. And I never said it was all audience. I was pointing out that we have one. Nuance seems lost to you.

Like the nuance of you insulting anyone who disagrees with you with your continued commentary of emotional dishonesty. How you can assume you understand the motives of people on this board and then can sum them up in a buzz phrase is interesting.

Your love of this board amounts to your zeal for your bully pulpit.

So you would do something like create a user id at another Cowboys message board pretending to be Fuzzy, then post some stuff talking bad about Cowboys Zone and then cut and paste from that message board back to Cowboys Zone...

No, not really. You might want to ask others if they did that.

Seems like I hit a nerve though.

You and Fuzzy are pretty similar.

Carry on my wayward son.

:laugh:Oh so in your rages you are actually holding back and I would know? You don't even argue that what you are doing is classical conditioning.

You are making up stories to try and rationalize things. Failing pretty hard at it too.

Why do you think that I source everything and do not let things stand solely on my word? I find a lot of value in community. You don't seem very perceptive, frankly.

Complaining about Watkins after being made to look quite foolish last year in the Hitchens threads was a nice touch.

Hitchens saved the 2014 season!

He started 11 games and played at all 3 LB spots. He started games over Bruce Carter. Without Hitchens they would have been playing Cam Lawrence and would likely have missed the playoffs.

People moaned and groaned about the Hitchens pick in 2014.

Now the Cowboys draft some guys higher than the draft media had them ranked and the same people are throwing a fit about it.

The naysayers were wrong last year and they didn't learn from their mistake(s) and are now repeating the same rhetoric this year.

Would that history include Matt Johnson, Jason Williams, Robert Brewster, Stephen McGee, Brandon Williams, BW Webb, Josh Thomas, Akwasi Owusa-Ansa, Danny Coale, David Arkin, Kyle Wilber, etc ?

No, just the one guy?

I see your point.

I never realized someone did that. I know I make them very very angry but not such that it would lead to that type of sociopathic stunt.

Shall we do a comparative analysis of the Cowboys performance in rounds 4-7 as opposed to other teams over the past 5 years? It doesn't fit your narrative. Most players past the top 100 fail. That is just how it is.
 
Alexander said:
I still think there is enough residual talent to get .500 again. But I do not see anything that suggests we will be more than 12-4.
Click to expand...
My goodness more than 12-4? Wasn't that tied for the best record in the league last year? Without all the upgrades me made in defense this year we should fly over 8-8 if Romo stays healthy. Those selling negativity around here today are sure feeling good about themselves. I can't wait to see what you guys say should we win a Super Bowl.
