I heard it here, we're gonna lose on Thursday.... should I watch the game or even put a GameDay menu on???? I was so stoked for this season, Dak is back, Zeke is fit, new DC and young defensive studs.....CeeDee with a year experience and learning form Cooper....I was excited, but many "fans" are saying we're gonna suck, even without Garrett.... I'm so Confused!!!!

It was sarcasm, but I agree with you

I get that the literal question was sarcastic. I have no doubt that you are going to watch the game. However, the premise of the thread is to call out those less than positive posters, isn't it? Why would you bother with them if they didn't get under your skin?

Which circles back to my original question, why do you care enough to let them under your skin?

I'd love to hear what @Rockport @rocyaice and @CowboysFaninHouston have for an answer to this question.

Not trying to be a jerk. This back and forth dynamic fascinates me. Human behavior fascinates me.

You're much smarter than I am, I just like to push buttons. Salud!

Ironic considering you are upset about his thread.
What makes you think I am upset?

You're seeing what you want to see. It fits your narrative to interpret me as being upset so that's the way you see things. That happens every day here. Isn't it possible that I am simply curious? Why did my post seem to upset you enough to ignore the point and choose to go to attack mode? Fascinating stuff. I'm just trying to understand.

Why do you care so much about what someone here thinks that you feel it necessary to identify yourself as the "Troll slayer"?

Yes, the same way my dogs are in my head when I watch them interact with each other, and other dogs. The behavior is interesting, and observing it makes me a better dog handler.

If you sit pretty you just might get yourself a biscuit,

People who think they’re better than everyone else are also interesting to observe. They invariably make fools of themselves.

There it is again. Interpreting to fit a preconceived notion then using that incorrect assumption to attack.

I don't think I am better than anyone Rocky. I am just trying to be better today myself, then I was yesterday.

Why do you care so much about what other people on an internet forum think that you have to defend some perceived 'honor' at all costs?

Fascinating that nobody will even try and answer this question. Even if you don't respond with an answer you should think about it yourself. You'll be better off for it.

Speaking for myself I don’t let them get under my skin. I’d block them before they did that.

I don't know man. If you say so but it sure doesn't come across that way. You spend a ton of time and energy on the back and forth such as in the Dak is Back thread and most every Dak related thread that goes off the rails.

I didn't just pull your name out of a hat. You have made a significant impression.

I spent my spare time debating people in that thread. Yes. Not sure if that constitutes as me letting them “bother” me. Not sure what your insinuating honestly.

I also recommend you read the whole thread as opposed to my interaction with posters….it stemmed from me asking posters to chill and just ignore whoever they have issues with.
