No, he titled the thread...“relax ladies” insulting male Cowboy fans who had doubts about the team. Everyone had doubts about this team around that time...come on. So he starts out with an insult. He posts the thread right after the loss to the Broncos. Usually not the best time for that so lets put the thread in its proper context. Lucky for him the Cowboys were able to beat a winless team in overtime the next week.

Also, do you believe i thought the Cowboys wouldn’t be 5-2 at this point? I believe the Cowboys will win all of their games...reason why i watch them! I actually predicted at the beginning of the season that the Boys would be 6-1 at this point. I never lost hope and won’t until we are eliminated from playoff contention.

Lastly, i post so many golden nuggets here, yet they rarely get noticed. But i misspell Brooking(s) or get emotional after a loss...and waalaa it’s noticed. Reason why i need to stop posting and just lurk.

So then the only reason you are upset is because of the "relax ladies"?

But if it makes you feel better, I'll keep a look out for those golden nuggets.

Wow. A lot of guys look like idiots in this thread. lol Props to the OP for his prediction. Right on the money. And thanks for bumping this thread. Its always good to see threads like these when we scream "the sky is falling". Give the OP his props and keep it moving. He may have bumped the thread but he didn't make you look like idiots. You guys did that all on your own by screaming the sky is falling prematurely.

Unless you have identity issues (NTTAWWT) the ones that should be insulted are the ladies.

None of us get our panties in a bunch like the crybabies here.

Props to the OP.

There is a lot of gnashing of teeth in this thread because the OP was spot on, and the ones that broke their legs jumping off the bandwagon are upset that their realism wasn't so real.

As for the OP bumping his own thread, how long would it have taken for a "realist" to bump it had he been wrong.

VERY few here will step up if wrong.......just the nature of the beast.

That includes you and anyone else that was laughing at the OP in this thread that didn't step up and bump this thread to admit they were wrong.

This thread will end the same way all the other back patters threads end if the Cowboys lose and I'll make a bigger prediction and say at some point this season the great nostradamus we have here in our presence will be calling for Romo's head and breaking his back trying to jump off the bandwagon.

LOL

Dude, the whole point of the OP's initial post was to say that things can change real fast in this league and that overreactions after any game are ridiculous. It seemed to be in direct response to all the "playing for the draft pick" posts.

and

Predicting the outcome of a team's fortunes has gone on since the first caveman olympics. It's what sports fans do and without it these message boards wouldn't get anywhere near the traffic they do.

Relax, enjoy the ride. The rollercoaster is always a heck of lot more fun then the merry go round.

Great Thread. Im glad you bumped it. All too often we hear doom and gloom. Its good to see someone have a little faith and the balls to post it. Expecially knowing that after a tough loss he would hear all the negitive nancys come out of the wood works.

Good call! Now can you tell me if the cowboys will win the game this weekend?

You really had to pull up a 4 week old thread?

Don't act like one of those folks who were laughing at him wouldn't have pulled this thread up the second we lost a game during that stretch to point out how wrong he was. Those people who went over board laughing at him will likely avoid this thread, for the most part, cause they're part of the crew who only care about letting you know when they're right but won't admit they were wrong.

We also want them to stop tooting their own horn, shut up and play the game.......how the hell does that apply here?

We also want them to follow the rules and stop making stupid mistakes. Just so happens bumping old threads like this is against the rules....

Should we continue the comparisons?


Do you need a tissue? Is this really hurting your feelings that this post was bumped?

Had you been wrong would you have bumped this thread?

Thought so :rolleyes:


he wouldn't have had to. One of the folks who laughed at him in this thread would have been quick to bump it for him had he been wrong.


SDogo;3054838 said:
I read the original thread about a dozen times and see where your coming from but really it only changed for those that ride the kool-aid roller coaster of emotion.


Oh you mean the people who didn't lose their mind, give up, and act like the world had ended and we'd never win another game because we started 2-2?

Shame on those fans for not giving up and going nuts after 4 games.

As for the OP...nice call. You did well this time. Next time maybe you don't do so well and I hope you're willing to take the bumping/ribbing/laughing at you should something not go in your favor. But great call on this particular one.

That's tap dancing that would make Fred Astaire proud.

Perhaps you need a vacation. It's a shame there isn't a mod around to give you one.

Really? I see a ton of insults being thrown at me...not a problem to me, i am used to it here. This place is nothing but a place of insults...as long as you don’t use cuse words of course! Not a great call by the OP, had he been wrong, this never gets bumped. Why not bring up the other 2000 threads from 4 weeks ago...call out the other 10,000 members here. So to everyone calling me out and insulting me, all i have for you is ...

This team has not proved anything. Romo still needs to PROVE he can win in December and the playoffs. Stats are meaningless without playoff victories and that is truely the only measuring stick I care about. Hopefully he leads this team to big wins.


stop putting all the blame on Romo--it's a team sport!
