The Unique Fun of a Regular Season Game Day Thread

Game day threads can be entertaining. Depends what you want from it.
To discuss the game. Have meltdowns. Pump up. The team or players. Hate on the team or players.

Love a player one play, hate him the next play.
Never give a player props on a good play but hate him when a not so good play. Or the opposite.

Agree, except for the discussion part.
 
Eh, it's just people wanting to participate. Short message or long winded essay like Blueblood. It's all good in my opinion. Plenty of time to break down the details in post game topics that move slower.
Yeah fair enough. I actually read his posts…well, the ones where he isn’t insulting someone. There’s good football talk in there.

Exactly what I was trying to say. The total nonsense makes any meaningful discussion or observation not possible, which….would be a great time to do exactly that, but other than DM, which who wants to bother with during a game, you can’t do.

But I’m not really complaining, and again, the traffic is what helps this place exist, so all fine by me.
 
We are less than 3 weeks from the start of real football that counts! Best time of year starts in September and all the speculation and hope we all have for the season begins to be tested.

One of the wildest roller coaster rides you can ever see on this great forum is watching the ups and downs of a regular season Game Day thread. It’s almost as good as a stand up comedian as long as you don’t take any of it too seriously.

It’s like being in a giant restaurant watching your favorite team with hundreds of other Cowboy fans either screaming with joy or demanding the firing of a coach….on each play! Sometimes it seems like we need a counselor hotline available…and that’s just for the first three and out!

So just for fun, here are some guaranteed funny moments on a Game Day thread that are as predictable as a sunrise:
  • If our offense has a three and out, you will see, “This is the worst offense I’ve ever seen. Schotty sucks. Get a real play caller in here.” “Game over.” “We may not score.”
  • If we score on the next possession, “Great call!” “What a drive.” “Unstoppable”.
  • If our opponent scores first, “Here we go. Game over.” “Parker is a joke”, “Get a real DC in here Jerry.”
  • If Dak throws a TD or an INT, a war begins between those who believe DP is “the worst QB ever to wear the Star” and those saying, “He’s better than ____”, and then the middle school cafeteria food fight begins and some people have to be benched or locked out. No middle ground for a lot of folks.
  • If we win…”Super Bowl.” “This team is different.” “We will run the table.” A bunch of “I told you so” comments.
  • If we lose…”I knew this team was a joke.” “Fire everyone.” And…a bunch more “I told you so” comments.
Game Day threads are a great way to enjoy the games, hang with fellow Cowboys fans, and hopefully enjoy the game more. And it can be really fun if we all keep our heads…wait a minute…who am I kidding?
:laugh:

Regular season will be here soon and I can’t wait. Go Cowboys!
Too much stress for me, I'd rather enjoy the gameday menu, where we're all civil.
Go Cowboys and Salud!!
