Why are we portrayed with such disdain by the media?

Its more to do with the fact that it seems like we get a lot more than most.

Your team is off to a great start, why worry about what the rest of the league thinks?

I get that, but it's also one of those things I have to wonder about.

I ask this because, if we don't win the SB, I know what the narrative is going to be. Every other team is allowed to say they had a great season if they make it to the playoffs. However, in light of the Diggs injury, the chances of us making it to the SB is naturally going to severely drop. If we make the playoffs and go as deep as I think we still can (I still think we can make the NFCC), we are going to be portrayed as an awful team with loser fans and all that. Honestly, it's been getting more and more annoying. It's like the media makes it seem like we aren't allowed to love this team the way that we do. I love the Cowboys. I'm always going to be a fan of the team. I'm just wanting to know why it seems like, to the media, we are the one team who catches as much flak as we do. It seems like we aren't allowed to be fans of the Cowboys by the likes of SAS, Cowherd, and Shannon Sharpe.

Even some our own fans hate us. It's a badge of honor. They Hate us cuz they can't be us.....and of course, because bashing the Cowboys equals ratings.

You should look up the words before using them. Your question would be found under concern trolling. You’re an Eagles fan complaining about Cowboys fans being concerned with other fans opinions. You are here and in this thread, ironically, because you’re concerned about other fans

Still don’t understand the difference between a question and a compliment?

Don’t worry, you will eventually figure it out.

Maybe tomorrow we can work on the word trolling.

Because fans of the other 31 teams hate the Cowboys.

And the media plays to those fans.

Eagles fans talking about Cowboys fan’s perception is the definition of trolling. You complaining and criticizing someone for how they feel about other fans opinions is ironic, because you would not be here if you didn’t care. Yep you are a hypocrite too, and you’re incapable of even understanding why that is. From what I’ve read of the ignorant dribble you spew here, you’re not only a very sad person who pretty much is only here to troll. You’re also completely unqualified to teach anyone anything.

It generates engagement. People hate the cowboys for various reasons.

Yep! People either love the Cowboys or love to hate them.

Reality · Sep 21, 2023

The main reason for all of the hate in the media is that negative Cowboys news generates clicks and views from both Cowboys fans and Cowboys haters, and a lot of non-Cowboys fans are Cowboys haters.

Beyond that, a lot of the hate comes because most Cowboys fans think every year the Cowboys are going to the Super Bowl and that deprives fans of other teams from enjoying the misery of Cowboys fans until the end of the season and by then, most people are focused on other sports.

Why do you care? Enjoy your cowboys. Pretend it's 1993

GMO415 · Sep 21, 2023

28 years the Cowboys have been irrelevant, yet they demand so much undeserved attention. Its frustrating to the media to talk about a bunch of unachievers for that long.

So... stop caring. It's really pretty easy.
When you look to constantly validate your opinion, it gets messy.
Just don't care....enjoy... have fun....log off and do you

There are two kinds of people. Those who love the Yankees, and those who hate them. The Cowboys were quickly successful in the NFL, and regardless of the narrative, are still.

People hate winning teams. Especially if they're fans of teams that have been a dumpster fire for most of their years.

As much as the they want to say "27" years, we've grabbed five in a short span. There are tons of teams with much bigger droughts (not to mention longer time in the NFL), but we won't hear about it, because they haven't built several generations of fans with championships.

(Also there's that guy that called us America's team. That set us up to forever have disdain until we have the most chips.)
