The intelligent people in this area are airing the No Contention Game between the Skins and 49ers rather than the Dallas/Philly game. Morons.

Whether win or lose, I would much rather watch a game with Playoff implications.

The team cannot win a big game. Amazing how much ego people give to one person.

I would much rather watch a close game than a lopsided Philly win.

[acreature]

I would just as soon watch my team, win or lose.

No implications in this game. The Cowboys exploded at the end of the year once again for the world to see. When you build your team around high character players like Pacman Jones, you end up with a great team.

Not me...when it gets this lop-sided, I'm changing channels or leaving the stadium if I'm there. It's better that way.

As drunk Dandy Don Meredith would sing on Monday Night Football "Turrrn out the liggghhhttts, the parties ovvvvver". Goodbye Cowpatties.

[acreature]

It's nice that y'all fair weathered fans can change the channel. Watch if they win, ignore if they're losing.

Personally, I like to watch my team. Maybe even root for them, regardless of score. But I'm loyal like that.

Shows the character of some "fans".

I knew what I was talking about when I said this:

Think the Cowboys will come back in the 4th?

You're probably the rubbernecker that causes all the traffic congestion at a crash scene, too.

I watch football for entertainment. It stops being entertaining for me when my team is losing by a landslide. I tend to get a bit irrational when watching my team lose so badly so it is best for everyone that I remove myself from the situation.

I have proudly worn and displayed my Skins paraphernalia for over 25 years...definitely not a fair-weather fan here.

[gbranton]

Well I'm with Aneurism. I want to watch my team whenever possible, even if they lose. If the Bears were on and they were getting beat worse than the Cowboys (is that possible?) then I would watch them instead.

If you can't watch and root for your team in bad times (as well as good), you are not a fan.

I patiently waited 15 years for the 1st of 3 1990s rings. I can patiently watch and wait more now.

I think the key is to be realistic about your team. I try to be real about what they have, what they can do with it and how they compare to other teams. I will be the first to tell you that every other year my team goes 4-12, but they have had a few good years over the last few. I went into the year merely hoping for a playoff berth and it came down to the last Sunday of the regular season. They did not fall apart and get humiliated by a mediocre team in the last game of the season like the Cowboys did. In realistic terms what else could I have asked for? It was a good season.

[gbranton]

Now that the regular season is virtually over I will say that I think this has been a really hard season to get a handle on. Every team that is in the playoffs has looked great at times and really bad at times. I think this is a hard postseason to try to predict but I will go out on a limb for fun and say I like the Falcons and the Ravens.

thats the problem with being a cowboys fan...look at us...we have all the puzzle pieces to being a dynasty for the next 4-5 years

the problem is JJ doesnt know how to put the pieces together

No, Dallas has pieces that don't fit together. They have some good pieces and they have some pieces that have NEVER fit in ANYWHERE but Jerry Jones' ego tells him HE can make them fit because he is a football genius. But in reality he is the same genius who thought that facelift made him look like something other than a suprised circus clown.

How bout them Cowboys!!!
