Because I'm not a bandwagon fan. I stick by my favorite teams through thick and thin. Cowboys, Spurs, Astros and Longhorns (football) are the only teams I care about and I don't waste my time with any others. Since A&M gave my daughter a scholarship I might have to start rooting for them now. I haven't decided yet. Lol
Sticking by the Cowboys through those late 70's and early 80's heartbreaking failures and then that 1-15 season, then turning it around to become the greatest team of all-time (Yes, I'm a homer) a few years later, that was very very satisfying. Same thing with my Spurs. David Robinson turned the Spurs into a contender after years of failure. I only wish Peter Holt would've been the owner then and not that cheapskate Red McCombs. Peter surrounded Tim Duncan with HOF players and solid role players, while Red McCombs brought in street ballers, old players that actually played in the ABA, malcontents and fired the only good coach we had, Larry Brown, and replaced him with a guy who sucked on towels and replaced him with John "George Jefferson" Lucas, who had no idea how to coach a team. But I stuck by them through 20+ years of failure and now we are considered one of the great franchises in professional sports.
Have faith my fellow Cowboy fans. The time is nigh!
I'll be posting this on my facebook a thousand times this year. We've been teased way too long. It's our turn now!
