Re: Another reason to dislike the Cowboys?

I don't need another reason to hate Dallas. I've hated them since the early 70s. I hate them because it turns my stomach to watch the media continually fawn over a group of underachievers. Outside of the 92-95 run, for the most part Dallas has consistently had talent and had difficulty bringing home the goods. With the talent Dallas has had over the years they should have more than 5 SBs.

What makes me even more sick to my stomach is the Cowgirl fans in general. Present company is excluded from these statements because I am assuming you guys are real fans or you wouldn't be posting in the offseason here. But even you guys/gals have to notice all the Dallas jerseys and hats and everything else when Dallas is doing well, when they're down the fair weather fan-base goes back into the closet. A few of us were mentioning this in another thread a while back, nothing burns many of us more than the Dallas fans who have no connection whatsoever to Dallas or Texas.

You don't see anywhere near as many fair weather Redskins fans.

Plus, as dblanch66 so eloquently stated, "Dallas sucks."

Props to the legacy of George Allen who created this rivalry. Tom Landry, too.

Btw, how do you think Romo's gonna screw you this year? Goal line fumble or interception?
To be honest with you, I think the fumbled field goal snap was Romo's brain fart. But last year against the Giants, wasn't his fault. How many passes for TDs did Crayton drop in that game.

With that said, I also credit the Giants pass rush for disturbing the timing of the offense. It would have been interesting to see T.O. at full strength too. Remember, he was playing with that sprained ankle from the Carolina game.

It's going to be tough this year in the NFCE. I think you guys have leveled the playing field. Especially if healthy.

I agree with you. Love a team when they are up or down. As much as I hate to admit it, I think the Skins have one of the most passionate fan bases in the NFL, right up their with the Chiefs, Packers, and Browns. Look at the Pats. I didn't meet one of their fans until after the year 2000. Where did these fans come from all of a sudden?

I might not agree on much with a cowboy fan but that is the funniest thing in the world...the idea the giants might repeat..I just dont think they have the goods to make another magical run this season. Take away that run in the playoffs and they are just a mediocre team. As for the cowboys....i think everything that needs to be said has been said...the debate could go on for days....but ill just go with the last time we played....we needed a win and got it. say what you want about the starters didnt play the whole game that doesnt really matter....the starters were pulled once the game was out of reach. I cant wait to renew the BEST rivalry in all the NFL this season.
