They should crap can the road show and just stay at home and work out. I think a lot of the NFL teams have moved away from doing that. Up here in Philly, they used to go up to Lehigh University and before that, West Chester University. Then after they built their new practice facility, they just stayed there.

Dallas and Houston only 2 teams who have camp outside of the state, then again it is hot as hell and humid as can be right now.

It's what happens at training camp NOT how many people attend that's important.

There is nothing to go see unless you’re a big time Cowboy fan.

We’re a boring team with a boring coach. You’re not going to get a lot of casuals out of state to come watch.

No, they count the fans.....pretty straightforward

Winning cures all!

 

[Shinaoi]

Are the rams and chargers both practicing down there? That could make that area sort of redundant.

If it's all about the fan numbers at TC then something is drastically wrong. .

 

[Silver Surfer]

Somebody needs to tell the fans that Jerry didn't take a knee... he just fell down.

Like everything it’s a combination:

1)People are sick of politics and drama.
2)Dallas hasn’t won jack in decades.
3)Too expensive and inconvenient for casual fans and short attention spans.
4)Way too many options and alternatives.
5)Too far away from home.

I don't give a rats *** where they train or who shows up to watch them train.

- Lack of stars/flashy players (Romo, Dez, Witten, Ware)
- Anthem issue (both ways)
- Rams and Chargers
- Garrett Sucks

How do they run these attendance numbers? The entrance gate is free & wide open, or do they go based on bleacher attendance estimate?
