How 'bout dem Cowboys?

[Shakabruddah808]

Once upon a time, Jimmy Johnson said these iconic words: "....how 'bout them Cowboys!"

For as long as I can remember, the Dallas Cowboys were not just "America's Team", they were "My" team. And I followed all of their games religiously.

I was a fan back in the days of Staubach, Dorset, Pierson, The "Manster" and "Too Tall".

I was a fan even during the lean years between Tom Landry and Jimmy Johnson.

I was a fan during that dismal 1-15 year.

I am still a fan despite the 27-7 drubbing at the hands of the Seahawks. After all, the '12 season is only two games old.

But just because I am a true fan, does not mean that I will not have my questions and opinions. But unlike the media (and most of the 'fans' here in the DFW area) I will not crucify "my" team for an embarrassing loss.

I am, and always shall be, a Cowboys fan.

Yeah, how 'bout them Cowboys!

I moved to the Dallas area in 1975 and the Cowboys were tops back then and for many years after. I became a huge fan. Then the series of disappointments started. No team in history that I have followed has disappointed me more and caused me such frustration, regardless of the sport (except maybe the Sabres).

I did not like how Jerry Jones ran the team and the team itself lost its aura and inspiration. Despite some good years, it has never fully recovered and is no longer able to be called "America's Team". Although I still follow them as to whether they win or loose and of course I always hope they do well, I do not sit glued to the tv every time they play to cheer them on.

I am only a fair weather fan. When they win and go to the Super Bowl I am with them 100% but when they loose I keep my distance. I guess I have not been a "true fan" of the Cowboys for many years.

-Since getting married in 1991, my Daughter and "him"
(a Longhorn native son)... have been living in Euless.

-These events, coupled with the Texas heat, is the only rational
I can 'come to grips with' to explain her:
Traitorism...shown towards the beloved Browns.
(and The OSU...gasp, gimme some air!!)

-I really would like to see her and the grandchildren again... someday…
