What product could you have that would be worse than it used to be but continue to buy it?

Look..... At times the Cowboys are downright friggin "embarrassing". I hate it!

But... In the last 20 years we have had quite a few "competitive seasons".


So.... IMO.... The Cowboys "product" is good one. Not "great" by these standards, but "to me the Dallas Cowboys are great... Royalty... Regal...."

I will always buy the product. It will always be good to great to me regardless of success. Just, like I said. They are embarrassing more than I care to admit.

By the way... The mid 80s to jimmy era(pre fix).... THAT was a bad product.

But it was our product, our team.

You would continue to buy it if there were no competing products (I don't consider NCAA football to be an NFL competitor). The NFL has no competition, so it is a situation of "buy my inferior product, or do without altogether".

NCAA football is far superior to the NFL(with the exception of the Cowboys)

It's a matter of personal preference...I rarely watch college ball. I just don't have a strong connection to it. College ball is competition for the NFL in some ways, but the NFL is the only professional league, and has no real competition. The NFL is composed of the best of the best from the college ranks. I think if most football fans were only allowed to watch one or the other, the NFL would win, hands down. JMO.

1. Cable service- its terrible and they are stealing my money but i have no options.
2. Airline service- they used to treat passengers with more respect and courtesy now they bark at you like youre a servant.
3. Eggs. Eggs used to be better and cheaper. The quality has dropped probably because to some egg farms having to shut down due to bird flu
4. Fast food Places. They used to give you as many ketchups as you needed. Now you can only have two per french fry and you get 1 napkin in your bag. They used to grab a handful and throw it in your bag.
5. Strip clubs- man strip clubs used to have the finest looking ladies working. Now they getting kinda sloppy with lots of cellulite and lil pooches. Disgusting.
6. Chinese buffets- man the buffets used to serve fresh alaskan crablegs for dinner w butter sauce. Now most of them except 1-2 places have gotten rid of crablegs.

Terrible

They need better officiating and to make the rule book easier so that everyone can actually understand some of it. There is NO NEED WHATSOEVER to describe what a catch is the way they do.

I think the NFL is way down from it's highs.

The best of times to me ended with the Dallas dynasty of the 90's.

Parity and the salary cap have watered down the product. I liked having super-Teams that dominated and had to face each other like the Cowboys, Niners and Commanders.

Replay and HDTVs have hurt the games. Too many penalties and reviews. A big play happens and we look for ways to negate it. I call it lawyer ball.

Fantasy football and gambling are the only things saving my interest in the game. It is getting real close to professional wrestling.

I find more satisfaction in high school ball.
