Dam fellas, I jump on her to scan the threads for any news updates from the day and almost every thread is just a dick measuring contest between posters and its like that in almost every thread, regardless of topic.

Be it about Dak, Zeke, free agency, the salary cap, NFL honors, Michael Irvin, Jerry Jones, the SuperBowl, the Eagles, team building, the draft, the coaches, etc...

It instantly turns into nothing but one poster or group of posters going after another poster or another group of posters and stuff like "you aint a real fan, you are stupid, you are a miserable hater and I cant imagine living my life like that, go find another team, Dak sucks, no Dak is the greatest, Moore was the entire reason this offense was good, no he wasnt you are just a Moore jock rider because you hate Dak, the Eagles are the blueprint on how to properly build a team, no they are not, they just got lucky and you are too busy riding their jock to realize it, and on and on and on........

If somebody does not agree with you, it doesnt mean they stupid, they are not a "real fan", they need to go root for another team, they are a hater, they have a miserable life, ect. Everybody here is a Cowboy's fan and wants to win a SB, we just all have different opinions on how best to accomplish that goal and yes, that can sometimes be different from your opinion or how you would do things.

Can we at least have some civil discourse and debate without the personal attacks and insults? Maybe I just need to take a break from this site for a while until things settle down, I am sure somebody will respond, "yeah, get out of here you fake fan", LOL.

I agree. It is ridiculous, really.

I’ve just been spending most of my time this offseason in the draft zone, where, for the most part things are kept civil and just focused on what the team needs to do to improve. It is great. Just like the fan zone used to be.

Bunch of old men posting here on the site.

A Good portion of them are balding which is depressing after years of having a beautiful head full of hair.

Most do not care for this time of the year when it is colder and it causes the old arthritis to make the joints hurt.

Some have some kids in the neighborhood that are constantly running on their property so they have to open the door and yell out....STAY OFF MY LAWN!

When they have to drive somewhere they have to deal with idiots going slower than them and maniacs driving faster than them.

As Bob Seger sang, todays music aint got the same old soul, they just need that old rock n roll.

Your favorite sports team poops the bed in the playoffs and you are now just waiting for the draft.

And last but surely not least...



Many sit too long in front of the puter and their Hemorrhoids flair up.

I noticed thst many of the instigators are accounts created recently. Many of them only posts anti Dak content. Nothing else. I have doubts these posters are Cowboys fans.

We are PISSED because the owner of the team that we love has ruined this team for FAR TO LONG. We have put up with almost 30 years of being a shell of the once-great franchise that we were. As the clearly bad decisions continue to pile on we get more and more frustrated. There is one thing if the decisions are questionable, but a lot of the time lately they are just clearly wrong and made only for the financial gain of the Jones family. The only reason we get so mad is because we love the team so much.

I was on the original Cowboys fan forum. We had battles, but nothing like this. I love discussing football. There are many here that have class. Even if they disagree it’s with respect you can tell who’s consistent people with issue.

Have you considered many of us 'old men' are fed up with Jerry and spawn wasting almost 30 years of our adult lives? I was 30 years old the last time the franchise won anything significant and now I'm only 2 and a half years away from 60. Let that sink in....

Actually, I quit caring a long time ago. Coming on here is mostly just a time wasting activity when I get bored with Netflix.

"Mahomes is a choker", child, please.
Dude is awful. Only his 3rd super bowl in 4 years? What a friggin' loser....

I recommend just disappearing until draft time. That's what I try to do. I check in a couple of times a week and hardly ever engage in any debates.

It sounds like You should tune in for the halftime show then!
Not sure what I’m gonna do. I may change my mind and if I do KC would be the lesser of my disgust level and I’d cheer for them

This is why i was out of this, my fav forum for a long time. I had always hoped for a coaches zone or something similar vs opinion zone because i like to learn the game from ppl with true knowledge.

Tbh even i have slipped because certain things like blind devotion to players that is annoying (really zeke), or unreasonable criticism of other players, coaches etc.

This place is going to go bananas if the Eagles do as i suspect and blow out the chiefs (man I’m hope I’m wrong).

But there are so many good posters here and the mods do a good job so I’m still here lol and appreciate it, but yeah man it can drag you down into the muck.

Ps - you’re clearly a fake fan, go root for another team ;)
