I'm just glad I'm alive and have vision in both my eyes to be able to do so, Tom.
The threats were troubling, of course, until I considered the source see previous comments for details
Now now... they may be overrated, they may be overpaid, they may commit the occasional felony - but gosh darn it, they're still an NFL team. And one with a fantastic fan base that almost felt funny when Greg Hardy was named a "team leader" by Jerry. Not to mention Dez "where can I cash my $70,000,000 check" Bryant.
Speaking of the fans, the only shred of respect I ever had for the Cowboys was because of their fans. Their never-say-die, "don't know the meaning of the word quit" attitude (though to be honest, I'm sure Cowboys fans don't know the meaning of lots of words). I used to think, "wow... their team has sucked for decades, it's run by a blowhard egomaniac, their overhyped and crybaby players are laughable... but the fans stick with them".
I guess that's not the case all the time, though. I guess while SOME fans are willing to put their Cowboys pride on the line by shooting opposing fans in a parking lot, other so-called 'fans' take the easy way out and slink away after their team has one or two... ok, 8 or 9... bad games.
It's sad, really. Sad and disappointing.
Being a Giants fan, this thread has at least made me laugh a lot, a lot like the team I root for/
Hey, the Cowboys spread cheer in many different ways. I personally appreciate it when overrated players like Dez Bryant muff a few easy catches... then make spectacular attempts at difficult catches (only to fail)... and let's not forget about Tony "We're Not Finished Yet" Romo!
I can't say that I know that much about football - but does Dez play the same position as that young Giants player? Odell something? You know, the guy that makes those amazing one-handed catches?
It was bothering me so I looked it up: Odell Beckham Jr. It's strange to me - the guy seems to be an outstanding player and yet there's no footage of him screaming at reporters in a locker room, no reports of him hitting a woman, nothing. It's like... he's so bland and colorless - probably why he's not a Cowboy.

Ridski... not sure who's requiring you to read this thread, but let me know and I'll speak to them and do my best to get you off the hook, OK?
Hey, if Ridski wants to keep the glory of the Cowboys alive... why not let him?
For someone who's complaining about too many Cowboys threads... this is an odd strategy to say the least. However:
Oddly enough, I had let this particular thread expire... but Ridski, thanks for bringing it back!

Did Dez Bryant have one whole completion for 9 whole yards?
Did Dez Bryant fail to make a clutch catch again?
Did Eddie Lacy batter the ineffectual Dallas defense?
Did James Starks do the same?
Did 6 Packers have more reception yards than Dez? Including Eddie Lacy?
But hey - the Cowboys are still in contention for the playoffs! Plus they have 5 super bowl wins! And really sexy cheerleaders! And of course, they have Jerry!
