Not an option. I'm a Cowboys fan, always have been always will be. I understand as a fan I have no say in what they do or who they get but once the season gets underway I will be there and pulling for the Cowboys. How others feel is really not my concern. I clearly understand the frustration so only thing I can tell anyone is the choice is theirs to make. I made mine a long time ago.

The Dallas Cowboys as we knew them are dead. Dead buried and gone. It’s far past time for us to all just leave. This is why Jerry wants? Then have at it big boy. Jerry’s legacy is and will forever be known as the man who completely destroyed the greatest franchise in NFL history. What a buffoon. So the least we can do is just leave this team with the Jones family. They deserve it
Totally agree. I am officially, after more than 60 years, not a fan of the Dallas Cowboys. Jerry, you and your son should be embarrassed. You are not, because you continually make money doing nothing but living off of the team that Clint Murchinson, Tex Schram, and Tom Landry built. Enjoy you money, sucker, I am outta here.

Hit "the road" with your son. Let us know where you land.

I’ve lived in Tampa for 25 years. Bucs are my 2nd team but it’s always been a distant 2nd. I actually have a couple friends in the organization. One really good friend.

I won’t stop pulling for the Cowboys but I’m going to make an effort to follow the Bucs at more than a cursory level.

I’ll see where it goes, can’t believe I’ve been pushed to this point.

I hate Jerry. I hate Stephen

Kick rocks as a fan if you can't handle adversity. Without the bad times you can't truly appreciate the good times. Have some fortitude and persevere through it with a smile. Remember this is a game...a sport. It's really not that serious.

I think most can handle adversity….its the lack of effort that really bothers us.

What a tough guy. If it wasn't that serious then you wouldn't have reacted the way you did. It sure is serious to you.

There aren't any good times with the Cowboys. Haven't been any good times in 30 years, and there aren't going to be any good times coming up.

I'm never going to abandon, simply out of the question. Sure its a sport, and sure its entertainment, I hear that. But when I was five years old in 1970 I was hooked, and will never jump ship to another team.

How much attention I put in can change, and yes, I may start paying a bit more attention to Nascar and English Premier League soccer, but #1 will always the Dallas Cowboys, no matter what.

Been a fan since 1971-72 season, heckuva run overall. If they never won another ring I wouldn't change my choice to be a fan. It's been a blast all things considered. I doubt I could completely ignore the team no matter how bad things got tbh. But, that's just me.

I feel ya.

I hate to say it but I could never abandon the Cowboys fam. The Cowboys are like that supremely beautiful woman that you fell in love with long ago and just can't let go, no matter how much she let's you down.

Cowboys are like that first love that treats you like a king during regular season and then come playoff time she breaks your heart and let you down. She then call you back at the start of a new season and assure you that yall should get back together and work it out. The stupidity in me believes her, the relationship is rekindled and going great until the playoffs and then she breaks my heart in the same fashion all over again.

I'll tell myself that I'm done with her, then she comes back again in September and my dumb *** takes her back, knowing she will break my heart and let me down once again towards the end of the season.

I just can't let go because I'm stupid.

The Joneses need a lesson and that is to attack their ego, and it can be achieved with empty stadiums while the Cowboys are playing at home, if the fans don't do that, they will continue to manipulate them and laugh at us.

You do realize every team’s fanbase feels as strongly about their favorite team as Cowboys fans feel about their’s, right? The hundreds of fan forums, like this one, maintains and solidifies teams’ fans. You lament the Cowboys’ current posture with exceedingly long posts. Allow others to show their frustrations as they allow you.

You are not more of a Cowboys fan than anyone else.
Add in "unreadable" between long and posts.

OK you first that includes you deleting all your Dallas cowboy accounts and never breathing another word about the Dallas Cowboys because when you post in Dallas cowboy areas where their content and their name are included it is still helping Jerry in advertising and keeping the Dallas Cowboys name relevant so you first delete this account delete all your Dallas Cowboys accounts give away all your Dallas gears and never mention the Dallas Cowboys ever again so start there if not how about this you let us decide..

I remember during last offseason everyone tried that with the whole fire GM posters the hashtag fire the GM they tried to embarrass Jerry and where did it lead us nowhere the stadium was still just about as full as it normally is it didn't have much effect on ratings people still watch the games we still had some of the most highest rated games in viewership it literally there I can't even count there's at least 75 Facebook accounts group pages that have the Dallas cowboy name in it there's probably five of these types of forms with the Dallas Cowboys name on them you all are still contributing to the Dallas Cowboys even if you're not going to the games or buying gear there's there's more to this than that it's what the league sees the Cowboys as and the league sees the Cowboys as a rating grab so we'll see how many primetime games they have this year if they're ever removed from the Thanksgiving game we'll see when the Cowboys are dead when they actually are dead not in your mind this is all in your head..

If the Dallas Cowboys were dead we wouldn't be here discussing them I mean look at Twitter and Facebook it's on fire with the Dallas Cowboys even if it's negative it does not matter there is no bad publicity you're carrying this torch for Jerry if you're simply just talking about the Dallas Cowboys that's how the Internet works when you even say the word Dallas Cowboys on your Google or your Cortana or anywhere you're Siri all of a sudden your content increases how is that we all know how that is it's an algorithm and you are helping that movement stay at the top and that's a win for Jerry so if you guys think all these little temper tantrums the Internet protests the signs the poster boards selling all your tickets it isn't gonna work unless it is done over A5 year. You're gonna have to half empty that stadium and convince people not to go not to buy gear and not to talk about the Dallas Cowboys ever like completely ignore them and that includes ESPN I mean you know almost every one of their shows at least one segment mentions the Dallas Cowboys why is that they're the ones fueling this fire I know they're being negative but that doesn't matter to Jerry..​
But lastly and I'm gonna finish where I started if you believe all that nonsense that happened in the offseason with the angry Internet protest in at the game and the bags on your head and the poster boards a lot of that went away when they went on a little winning streak it's kind of weird that way right when they had a chance to possibly make the playoffs and all of a sudden they were forgiven it was that fast and that easy but did it affect Jerry did all those signs all those protests and all those negative segments all across social media and ESPN did it change no because he hired Brian schottenheimer anyway he did not go out and get a fan favorite he decided to just keep doing what he's always done and that will probably be the case...​
So there you go lower your expectations watch football for football follow the Dallas Cowboys because they're the team that you follow and support not because of who the owner is or who the coach is who the quarterback is because of the star that logo is why I'm a die hard Cowboys fan and I always will be and there's no protest that I know of that's gonna change the popularity of the Dallas Cowboys whether it's good bad or indifferent they will always be prominent they will always be relative and you don't like it that's OK you get to delete and stop talking about them all you want...​
i choose not to but thank you very much.. And we'll see how dead they are this coming season when the game start and the ratings.. so until then ..se ya BYE!
Not sure what games you went to but multiple games weren’t nearly as full as in years past

The Jones boys treat the Cowboys as a marketing company not a football team. They have turned the Cowboys into a clown show so as long as they run the team just know it's not about football and winning a Superbowl it's about the show. It's about money and fame for the Jones boys. They aren't serious about doing what it takes to win. The only hope is someday they sell the team or let someone else run it.
