Oh you thought you offended me, lol. No chance of that, you're far too beneath me for that to be possible. However, your consideration for my sensibilities is much appreciated. Thank you. :)

From the position your head is in relative to your backside, I can understand why you'd think I was beneath you. But it's not my place to correct your inadequacies. Carry on.

All that doesn't mean squat if you don't take the time to know your team and hence jump ship like a Rat at some adversaties.

Know my team? How about, "know the games?" Only have one sack after facing two poor, injury-ravaged offensive lines is not misfortune.

How childish of you. You seem to be the one in need of that butt hurt form now, lol.

A fair weather fan wouldn't be here. He or she would've found another team or stopped paying attention. I find it difficult to fault fans who want an honest discussion about what ails the team beyond "rah, rah! Everything is great!".

Is it really so insulting or wrong to call people who turn very negative AFTER their team starts to lose a fair weather fan or a band wagoner? I don't think it is. That is pretty much the given definition of those titles.

It is what it is. Just accept it. Some fans are better at being fans. By definition.

When you start your school for how to be a "proper fan" make sure you let everyone know...

Fans pour not only their heart and soul into a team, but also their money, they have a right to voice their frustrations and ask for explanations.

Perhaps the adult thing to do, would be to avoid the topics which obviously don't appeal to your one-sided point of view. Leave those for the people who are open to debate.

Explanations? From who exactly? Keep asking. You will get none of any significance. If it makes you feel better keep protesting.

Proper fans? No. Just more loyal fans. Therefore, imo a better fan. Let me guess you think voicing your displeasure makes the team better.

I think some fans are pathetic little babies who want everything to be great involving their team and when it isnt they throw tantrums. That's my definition of fair weather fans. When things go well they have very little complaints.

Depends on how you define negative. When someone says "our pass rush has been poor", I don't consider it negative, just a statement of fact based on solid empirical analysis. It certainly doesn't make me question their fandom.

I suppose some people are just better at being smart than others. You'll have to accept it.

That's why I used the word "very" in front of negative. It adds something to the negative description. Thanks for saying I'm better at being smart. I do appreciate that.

I didn't say that at all, but based on what I've observed of your reading comprehension skills, I can see why you would think I said that.

Ok. What were you trying to say??

Let me guess:"if you don't understand I can't explain it" or some such non sense.

Really cute:)

You never talk with your friends about what the Cowboy did wrong in a game or could do better? That's all this message board is, essentially. An open forum for those discussions. If all you do is focus on everything positive, which I don't believe for a single second, then that's wonderful and I am happy for you. Live in your blissful ignorance.

It takes someone who is seriously close minded, arrogant and self centered to believe his type of fandom makes him a more loyal and better fan.

So, does it make a person less of a Star Wars fan if they didn't like the prequels? You know, because complaining or voicing a negative opinion about something you disliked makes you less loyal and fair weather. Or does that only apply where you deem appropriate?

maybe it is just me but I expect more than 1/2 a turnover a game

I'm more sympathetic regarding turnovers because the offense has been so spotty. But, even then, there's no justification for the historically bad turnover pace they're on.

It's like wins. By now, you should've stumbled into one.

You need to at least fill the form out if you expect your butthurt issue to be addressed, sir. No wonder you are always butthurt. Have a nice day. :)

I'm not the one whining about other people; ergo, the report is for your benefit, not mine.

lol, omg. You are the biggest whiner on this site. You have quite a nerve to be approaching anyone else about the crap you are guilty of. That's not how it works.
