Can someone please interpret this for me?
Might wanna take a look at how long I've been here how many posts I have and how many positive post reaction meaning like somebody is interpreting many of my posts and they all look very similar it's just you you don't wanna hear it maybe you're incapable of reading anything past one line and I get it you have no original thoughts of your own...

Yeah dude keep it up it's OK

we get it you're slow you have no intention of trying to read it because it's difficult for you we get it I hope you get that fixed soon and if I could draw in crayons and use more means and jiffy's in here I would do that for you but I just keep it right here you don't wanna know you don't want a differing opinion you don't want facts because you wanna just stick to your false busted narrative like the rest of the sheets and parrots around here that have the stuff ready on copy and paste in every post that's all they do is they go back and just remember the top five subjects that they're gonna respond in the exact same way all over this site nothing new nothing real nothing with their own opinion it's everyone else's it's either join the pitchfork and torch crowd and just say negative things or be told you can't read I can't read your stuff it's too long it's not legible blah blah blah blah it is actually in fact very readable....

But I don't wanna keep hurting your feelings because i don't like to pick on the weak , so i'm just going to leave it right here...

very hilarious post. ok me being logical , we have won 5, I repeat 5 super bowls, you posted like we won Super bowls all the time.

I get it, you want to complain about the season and you want to lose on purpose to get a high draft pick. Not cool, tanking, that's a loser mentality.
I did not post we won Superbowls all the time. I said we won in the 70’s and 90’s AND that we remember Super Bowl victories for decades!


Losing competitive games this year is not a losers mentality, it is a realist mentality!

Your, win every meaningless game when your team has no chance to win a Superbowl, is a fanatics mentality.

We have a better chance of winning a Superbowl in the near future by losing competitive games this year, and getting earlier draft picks in every round during next year’s draft.

Wow! Sorry I hurt your feelings.

I can actually read this. Some of the other stuff not so much. I’m glad you took your time and made this legible so we could all read it. If you write something in the future, I might read it now that I know you can write legibly, when you take your time.

I do completely disagree with the content though.

I’m glad you have had a lot of positive post. The post that are not all positive seem to get you very upset.

Have a positive day!

Somehow I get the feeling that Steven will be more of a normal owner. Happy to hire people to run the team, provide the money, and just bask in the glory of winning super bowls.
If Jerry had done this, we'd probably have 10 super bowls by now.
I hope you are right. I tend to think Stephen would like the limelight.

Watching our team win regular season football games is enjoyable. It makes us “feel” good, but over the last 29 years, by the end of the season, we are ALWAYS, at LEAST a little bit, disappointed because we did not win the Superbowl.

Winning the Superbowl is the ultimate goal! Watching the Cowboys win Superbowls in the 70’s and 90’s was AMAZING!!! The feeling stays with you for decades! It really does. Dallas is the most hated team in the NFL, in big part, because of our Superbowl wins! They are also the most popular team, in big part, because of our Superbowl wins!

Fans of other teams are jealous of us because we are America’s Team! We are America’s Team, in big part, because of our Superbowl success!!

Having a 12-5 record and losing early in the playoffs is okay, BUT it is NOTHING like winning the Superbowl!

Having a 5-7 team, that is NOT capable of winning a Superbowl, win a couple division games, is fun to watch, BUT it is nothing like winning the Superbowl!

As a long time fan, I want to EXPERIENCE another HISTORIC Superbowl VICTORY!

If Jerry does not sale the team, the best chance for us to experience a Superbowl victory, in the near future, is to:

1.lose competitive games this year, and get a top 3-5 pick in the draft. Cooper Rush is NOT a Super Bowl caliber QB. Our D is improving with guys coming back, but it would need to be an all time DOMINANT D with Rush as the QB, to win a Super Bowl. That is not happening!

2. FIRE McCarthy! To often we are not prepared vs playoff caliber teams! To many stupid mistakes and penalties. We are not physical enough at the LOS. I am sick of seeing the jet sweep on 4th and a foot. Also, on Thanksgiving was the first time our D line has stopped a QB sneak in 3-4 years!

3. Draft a QB with a top 3-5 pick. Groom him to be the starter from day one. Tell Dak he is sitting the bench. He is not playing! Tell him we want to trade him.

4.Fire the Offensive Line coach/ run game coordinator. Our run game is to simple.

5. Draft run stuffing DT’s early and often in the draft.


This team has a lot of talent, but we do have one gaping hole and some smaller holes.
Dak has shown he cannot consistently play well vs good teams. We must pursued him to seek a trade. Again, we need DT’s. I think our O line has the potential to be very good when healthy and the best 5 are on the field. Doodle is a good back, but he needs help. Again, to win Superbowls we need to be physical.

Sacrifice short term success, which will not help us win a Super Bowl, for high draft picks throughout next years draft, which might help us win a Superbowl!
Just about 0% of that is going to happen.

You don’t think McCarthy will be fired?

You don’t think we will pick DT’s early in the draft?
I have no idea what will happen to MM. I thought Garrett was getting fired and he got extended.

Half our fans thought he was getting fired after every game and he is still here.

I thought we would either pick up a DT in FA or the draft last year and we let our best DT walk in FA.

GM Jethro probably thinks Mazi is improving and we are going to be just fine.

SMDH, that is a losers mentality, losing competitive games on purpose, just plain ignorant!!! Yes I'm a fanatic, I have been a fan since 1964, so I have been through it all with my Boys all the different players teams , coaches etc. I take pride in winning SuperBowls, playoffs and regular season games, even preseason games, so any kind of win we get I will take it, so losing on purpose is not in my mentality, screw that kind of thinking, but I guess that's why the world is going to crap now

Surely I'm not the first one in this thread... but I'm not bothering to read to find out--too lazy... to point out that the emotional perspective is to believe that it matters what fans want or think, whereas the logical perspective is to acknowledge that the only ones who have any power/control/gravity in this circumstance is the very people whose careers are affected by performing/coaching badly and losing games.

So, sorry that you spent the time you did in pecking all that out, but the subject header is incoherent with the body text.

My suggestion? Enjoy the ride. And when you're tired of the ride, just get off and go get entertained by something else. Life's too short. In my later years, I've discovered that being a fair weather fan is the way to go.

If we were trying to lose Trance would be starting after Dak's injury.

Here's the harsh truth that I will get attacked for, but it's the truth - most people are idiots. The average I.Q. is 100, which is a functional moron. Think Kardashian watching, "adult" Taylor Swift fan level moron.

A moron can only think in two dimensions. A moron is only concerned with immediate endorphins. Look into the "Marshmallow Test".

A moron is completely incapable of thinking through hypothetical situations, and is confounded completely by multi-dimensional thinking. They simply have no grasp of how to think through consequences that occur much later in time than the here and now.

What's worse, the moron has no idea that they are a moron, and will think much smarter people are stupid, because they cannot fathom long term, consequential thinking. You may as well try to teach Calculus to your dog.

Sports are supposed to be emotional....logic is for those than can do something about it, none of us here can. Sacrifice now for draft picks that MIGHT help us win? Nah, to quote another, off the rocker owner, Just Win, Baby!

Didn’t we just see Jerry and Dak standing at the altar exchanging vows back in September? And wasn’t Jerry’s gown JUST PERFECT?

Like too many brides, Jerry sees Dak for the man Jerry believes HE COULD BE - not the QB that HE IS. And to top it all off - Jerry waived the ‘pre-nup’.

Four more years of Dak Millstone…

The Cowboys should probably draft a QB every year until they land one of some reasonable promise.

Dallas is not getting a top 5, even if they tanked the rest of their season. That option was two weeks ago, these wins guarantee at best the #6-10 draft position route but more realistically given how they are playing you’re looking at a 7-10, 8-9 season at best and probably a 15-20 range.

10 wins may not even get a playoff spot this year in the NFC.

Packers and Vikings already have 9 wins which almost guarantees two wild card positions are taken by the NFC North since the lions have 11 wins, leaving only one wild card position in the NFC left for every team to compete for.

Washington at 7-5 is the current last wild card leader and they only have 5 games left to play since they haven’t had their bye week yet. Even if the commanders falter down the line Dallas is currently competing with 6 other teams in the 5-6 win range.

Buccs, Rams, 49ers all 5-6, while the Cards, falcons, and Seahawks are all 6-5. None of those teams are garbage tier and most people would consider almost all of them currently better than the Cowboys. *forgot two of these teams will ultimately win their division so the boys are realistically in a 6 way competition for a wildcard, not 8.

Thank you.

Many on this site, if not most, do not understand the concept of delayed gratification.
