Shango is Dead On

Everyone here gets the videos, they just want to pretend they don't because they are the ones he is talking about in the video. Some fans just let their love for the team get in the way of reality. The culture here is all messed up because of Jerry Jones. He is cheap, he holds on to players too long because of his ego, he won't let the coach do his job without interfering with him, he turns the stadium into a circus, and all he cares about is money. Until he is gone NOTHING will change.

I love his comment about Romo. Basically he is saying Romo had a complete meltdown at this same exact time last year and then he got it all together.
So we have to go through these give away meltdown games every year from Romo before he starts using his head?

How many times is Romo going to fumble the ball when we are in scoring range by not taking a sack? It was like De ja vu on Monday night, he did the exact same thing he did against the Bucs.

How is Jerry cheap when we have one of the highest payrolls in the league? Where do you guys get this stuff from? And i'm not even a Jerry defender but you guys believe he actually WANTS to suck? That's the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard but its a common opinion with most Cowboy fans. I'd love to hear ones reasoning for why a owner would rather suck and make less money than be good and make more money.

And all owners care about is money. If they didn't, they wouldn't be the billionaires they are.
 
Seems like a very creative guy.

Was that Kool-Aid or liquor? :)
 
Leave it to Shango to lift the spirits. Great job Shango, You always make me laugh.

:laugh2:

Seriously...I've read through all these posts and thank you all. These are tough times right now and putting these type videos out there is EXTREMELY tough. For the past two years I've let people basically intimidate me into making softer videos to make the fan base "feel better"....I've parsed my words..failed to talk about certain players, coaches etc. It discouraged me so bad that I decided to quit and made a "Goodbye" vid. My subscribers then talked me into continuing...But I promised myself, that if I was to move forward, I was gonna be completely honest with myself and what I see because that's what the internet is all about. So people can argue, call me "annoying", etc and it doesn't bother one bit because I'm being totally honest with myself.

We all hope that somehow this ship can be turned around but if it doesn't, I think we have to make SURE Jerry doesn't sell this same product to us again next year. Enough is Enough...

Thanks! I'll be lurking!

How would we do that though? Even if us diehards boycotted the team, there's still plenty of casual fans waiting to buy up all the tickets and gear, so our little boycott would go unnoticed. Not watching won't help either because there are millions others who will watch and keep ratings high. Sadly, the best we can do is to hope that someday the team will be good enough to overcome his shenanigans or hope that we out-live his tenure as owner.

Well I won't be satisfied until we get an answer for this observation here so if you're still around Shango, lets hear it.

I thought maybe it would come off as the joke it was intended to be.

Go back to checking your closets for boogeymen.

They already left and they didn't steal anything. Dumbest robbers ever.

Well, I'm not a subscriber, but I tried to talk you into continuing to do it. And I'm glad you are. Keeping it light is needed. I just wish you had gone with a new angle on this one. Maybe because I love the original so much. I've shared it with a lot of folks.

Oh, and read your PMs on FB now and then man. Thanks.

Maybe it had something to do with him pouring the kool-aid all over his face? duh...
 
That was too funny. It keeps me from throwing myself off my roof on my head,

I think that was it...but I was doing it the exact same way as before...no sunglasses then...no sunglasses now.

Hos...You know I love you man but I think you completely missed the point of this video. I've NEVER remake vids..but when I was asked and actually looked at the previous one, I could not help feeling the eerie "sameness" of the situation then and now. The purpose was not to make people laugh or entertain...but to show how we have stayed basically the same throughout the years. The vid is meant for us to think..and do what we can as fans to not end up in the same place 4 years from now. What can we do?...I have no idea. But we do know where "getting sucked into the yearly hype" leaves us.

I never have and never will do ANYTHING without a deep underlining purpose.

Oh, I know you throw stones with a purpose man. I saw the difference in the drinking points.

I just like it better when your creativity is a new idea. I still think your Draft Star one is my favorite. I challenge you to top it.

I get that too...but Timing > Creativity anyday. The Cowboys nation doesn't NEED a creative masterpiece right now IMO. We need something that will help us cope and move forward. Yes people may have laughed...or hated it, but I'm sure people came away thinking. And I'm into that more than anything else...especially at this point. If I was doing a TV show where creativity was number 1...I'd be with you 100% but right now, I could care less about being creative...It'll surely come back when the gloryhole days come back though...lol
