To true fellow Cowboy fans. it's OK to be excited

[Gambit]

Reading is fundamental.

Yes, correct. See you're learning already, even if its just snazzy catch phrases.

“And for the first time in a long time, you have a team you can be proud of…”

And how do you know that since they haven’t even taken a snap in a regular season game? Talking about putting the cart before the horse, wow. It’s one thing to hope but another to make a statement that is a declaration of “fact”.

I don't know about being proud, but they are looking good out of the gate. Nice to see.

Right. Not sure why cheering on and being so proud NOW...is required.

Those being reserved NOW will be just as very "happy", "proud" and ecstatic as anyone else.

It is..."looking good". Or at least...better. I have had hard time finding anyone saying otherwise.

The more you know.

Dallas has an entire new defensive coaching staff. And almost an entire different defensive roster.
Many are decent to really good to great players. And many 1st and 2nd year players with high potential.

We as fans should be excited to see how it all unfolds.

 

[kskboys]

I definitely give you points, for trying, lol

Trying to what, call people morons? Yeah, great job.

He says he is a Marine like you are, but see how he treats a fellow Marine? That my friend is who you are talking to. Take that as you wish.

As a fellow Marine i respect Rockport's service to the country.

What is hard for me to understand is the way he disrespects others who don't share his views. We should all be able to fan in our own way without insult. But that's easier said than done in this space. Lol

Disrespect is not a Marine Corps trait. However,  tact is one of 14 leadership traits:

It's the ability to deal with others without causing unnecessary friction or offense.

As we know RP usually doesn't follow these guidelines.
I've taken shots at him from time to time, but I don't take it personal when he comes at me. I mostly stay clear of his more heated entanglements, which is probably a good thing.

He is who he is...Cowboys!

 

[kskboys]

Just an example, but I think I might. I no longer wear anything Cowboys because I cannot stand small talk about the team.

It’s always something beyond lame. Pretty much why we hang out here.

I've had several people try to start Cowboys talk w/ me when they see my Cowboys shirts and stuff. Blank stares when I say anything besides GOOOOOO. Kinda like Rocky's reactions.

Absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But w/o calling people morons.

I clicked on this thread a few minutes ago and it was locked.

I got a nice laugh out of it. People can’t make it through a few pages of a thread about being positive without insulting each other. Adults I presume?

What’s wrong with fanning the way you like? Want to be encouraged? Fine. Want to hate Jerry? I’m in. Need to see it first? Don’t blame you.

Maybe try treating others as if they were sitting next to you in a bar talking Cowboys. You’d be respectful. I mean, I think. Maybe. Yes, you would.

That's especially what happens when the OP starts out by calling people morons and throwing insults if they don't exercise their fanhood exactly how he does.

That's a lot of stuff to put together and have instant success.

I think most everyone agrees...if it's even just a better defense...will be exciting. Like knowing how to tackle for one.

The front and back would seemingly be WAY better.

Some are hoping the defense doesn't slide...and improves early scoring, redzone and ball control (run that clock!).

Just about everyone that is...hesitant...is looking way forward...post season is where this team will show if it's truly exciting or not. Meantime...I'm sure nearly EVERYONE will enjoy the ride. Not sure why some people are worried about them either way.

It's directly from the book:

 

[kskboys]

You said that the last 2 years. Lol

You meant 32.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

He calls some posters "morons," yet goes on to say that he thinks Dak will have the best season of his career. Interesting to say the least.

What’s the correlation? It’s not like Dak has been bad you argue he’s playing better into his 30s then he did in his 20s.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Guys will make obscene jokes and call Dak fans “slobberers” but draw the line on morons lol….

Neither should be allowed.
