What's with the ''we''

[ZekeandDestroy]

I see post every day, here and every where else that includes the statement, well ''we'' should do this ''we'' should do this. I mean don't get me wrong I am a fan and claim and proclaim my fandom as much as the next. It's just weird to see people acting like they play or work for a certain team. You are a fan and nothing else and not a tooting thing wrong with that. It's not your money writing the contracts or your hind end on the line for signing said player. Just step away, take a breath and let someone else to ''their job''. So instead of WE, how about, they, the cowboys, the team.

Got to love opinions, everyone has them

Assuming youre American, your "team" is America right? so you wouldnt say " I hope "they" finally annihilate ISIS"...even though you or me are not actually in the armed forces participating in the fighting..........whats the difference in identifying so closely with a team?

If you would say "We" kicked England's *** in the Revolution or "We" kicked Germany's *** twice in the 20th Century even though you werent there personally, but have a problem with "We" just kicked the Commander's *****.....youre a hypocrite, plain and simple......

The op is Darren Hambrick. He now understands 'voluntary', but he is still struggling with 'we'

OP.

I have Tom Landry tattooed on my arm (not kidding). Do I need to go get it lasered off since it's the face of another man on my body?

never understood the "we" either but does this really need its own thread in a rant thread or not?

 

[Risen Star]

Oh stop. We. As in the Cowboys. Team and fan base. One and the same. It's all Cowboys Nation.

I run into people like you every once in awhile. Its beyond amusing that something so irrelevant would bother you so much that you'd create a thread about it.

Fans directly or indirectly (through TV rights, ticket sales, adverstising, local tax for stadiums, etc) ARE a part of the teams they support.
The teams do not exist...period...without their fans.

If a fan wants to say "we" regarding their favorite team that they support, they aren't remotely out of line.
It IS their team, at the very least indirectly.

Well...that IS a bit weird, unless you are related

But hey, its your body and nobody elses business.

Says the guy who takes another man's name in his username and another man's image in his avatar... Also, you say "we're" not writing their checks, but we kind of are. How do you think these guys get paid? "We" spend billions of dollars a year on tickets, gear and other miscellaneous Cowboys-related merchandise. So "we" do pay their checks. (Well, I don't. Don't own any gear and don't go to the games. But I don't call myself RomoDakMVP123 or have an avatar of Troy Aikman, so whatever.)
