How many posters here live rent free in Rockport's dome?
I think at least five, maybe seven.

Rockport has pictures like players have on Jerry Jones.How many posters here live rent free in Rockport's dome?

It’s nauseating, I think I may actually vomit after scanning through those names. How anyone can say we’re above average at drafting is beyond me. I’ll give them credit for a few nice pick ups on offense but nothing that makes them “that” much better than most other teams.

I think Rockport is the nemesis of many posters here, a role he doesn’t shy away from. They all rent space in each other’s heads.What does?

He certainly has many, many fan posts from those guys. I’m just assuming they all follow each other here.
Whenever I log on to this board or any other cowboy forum, I encounter the disgruntled Cowboys fan. You know the type. The ones that ask the typical disgruntled questions. Why did they sign this guy? Or why didn't they sign this guy? Why did they draft this player. Or why wouldn't they draft this player instead? How could they not win that game? Or why did they bother to win that game?
And not just that. They have to make fun of the fans that are trying to stay positive. Or bring them down to their belief level. If a fan makes a post asking what we need to do in free agency, they will answer with the equivalent of 'what's the use?' Their answers will infer that whatever they do, it will be the wrong thing.
I get it. We haven't won anything in over a quarter of a century. We have a meddlesome owner. We are known as America's Team (worse thing to ever happen to us.) We have an atrocious defense.We paid Zeke. We paid Jaylon. We drafted Taco. Again, we haven't won anything in over a quarter of a century. God knows that there is reason to be disgruntled.
But I choose not to go that path. As do many of the other board members. We know of our challenges and our weaknesses. But we choose to ponder about what we need to do to overcome those challenges and weaknesses. When they sign a mid-tier free agent, we try to figure out how they will use them rather then complain about the fact that they didn't sign a top-tier player.
There are many ways to skin a cat and the Cowboys choose to do if with drafting well, signing second-level free agents and then turning those players into compensatory picks if they choose to leave. Yeah, we have missed on some draft picks but we are one of the best in the league at picking college talent. That's a fact, Jack.
So I ask the disgruntled fans that stay on these forums and others like it. Why? Why continue to be a Cowboys fan if it is so negative and depressing? Isn't it the conventional wisdom to purge things from your life that make you unhappy? I, myself, will not read, listen or watch anything Cowboys related after a tough loss because it hurts to think about it. So I understand the concept of out of sight, out of mind when it comes to the Boys.
Anyway, I know that this post isn't gonna change any minds or mindsets in regards to the Cowboys. And I know that everyone is allowed to be Cowboys fans, including the Negative Nancys in our group. I live in the Philly area so I see the negativity about the Boys every day. So I'm used to it.
Have a good day, y'all, and How bout them Cowboys!!

LOL, you just did.I don't even read your posts.
Love them or hate them
They are still my team...
It is not "hate". Such a dumb term to use against anyone that questions 25+ years of futility and failure. Questioning failure is not hate. Grow up.Great post. And it’s good to have another “glass half full” member. Not many of us here. Most enjoy just crapping on everything and anything the Cowboys do. It’s all they live for on a daily basis is to come here and hate. Then when you put them in their place they will attack you. That’s when you know you’ve done some good. So don’t get discouraged about the hate you’re going to get. Stay positive because that’s just the right way to be.
Questioning failure? That’s funny. But you haters just say stuff like that to make yourself feel better.It is not "hate". Such a dumb term to use against anyone that questions 25+ years of futility and failure. Questioning failure is not hate. Grow up.

-----Should I be a disgruntled Cowboys fan?
I am being honest, when I say that I'm not even much of a fan in general anymore....the incompetency of Booger and Chuckles has made it almost impossible. I no longer eat, drink, and sleep Cowboys football....I seldom know the next opponent, time, and place until a few days prior....there was a time when I could cite almost the entire schedule to you in advance. I already know that we have no shot at the Super Bowl next year, and Corky as HC installs zero hope or excitement in any bone of my body.....soooooo pathetic that I am actually jealous of teams like the Chargers, Jaguars, and Browns....it is truly sad.
Totally agree. They’ve obviously been wrong about not prioritizing the safety and DT positions in the past. Nothing wrong with being critical. It’s the ones who are critical sell the time, every thread and every post that I have the problems with.I think it is possible to question actions of the team without hating on the team. I think I've proven myself to be a loyal and diehard fan of this team. However, there are times when this team makes moves that I can't help but question.
