Pretty sure you heard me say that before the season started.

The Dallas Plowboys choke & lose once again-7 losses in a row. The Dallas Plowboys suck more than Deepthroat Linda Lovelace!!!

The winning streak will start soon...or not.

Mr. Smith111 · 11-16-2015, 08:51 AM

Terrible,,,

Saw this morning on TV (so it has to be true), according to FPI Cowboys have a 2% chance of winning NFC East.

Not zero! Whoo hoo!!

The Dallas Cowboys are the most valuable sports franchise in the world. It has ALWAYS been apparent that JJ's priority is making money, not having a super bowl team. And as long as all the idiot fans keep filling his stadium in blind support, he has no motivation to change. This year, we get to start extra early looking forward to September.

The team has an owner that supports and defends a person like Greg Hardy. That tells me all I need to know.

I don't think Dez could catch a ball if it was handed to him.

TRUE

According to Forbes:

1. Cowboys
2. Real Madrid
3. Yankees
4. Barcelona
5. Manchester United
6. Lakers
7. Patriots
8. Knicks
9. Dodgers
10. Redskins

Several of the above teams have raised their value without winning championships or even having a winning percentage.

Well of course JJ is about money but don't think for a second he wouldn't relinquish a large portion of his profits if it meant he could win another Super Bowl. He is an ego maniac, he built that billion dollar stadium so he would have a place to show off his new Super Bowl trophies. If he wasn't so full of himself he would have given control of the team to Jimmy Johnson and there would be about 11 of those trophies in his new stadium. Too bad the youngest one is almost old enough to buy beer.

How may people saw the last Super Bowl they won? And to the ones that did (myself included), how many people you watched it with are still alive? I doubt anybody can say all of them if they watched it with more than 3 people.

Good points Capitan. My son, now in college was born that year. ( I've explained to him that it is his fault that the Cowboys no longer win) It has been a long damn time.

And that's well and good for Jerry Jones and the shareholders (of which I'm not), but as far as for Cowboy fans; it sucks ass. My previous statement was incomplete. It should read " This year we get to start extra early looking forward to September, Again!

Regardless of it's value as a franchise, Jerry Jones has been the single worst thing to happen to Cowboys football since the loss of Tom Landry. He is the Donald Trump of owners and has been giving it up the ass to the Dallas fans since day one.
He has single-handedly turned the Cowboys from America's Team into The Kardashians of the NFL.

That's probably the best assessment I have ever heard of him. Cowboys were always my team. I thought Jerry Jones handled the Tom Landry situation totally wrong. It was time for Landry to step down as head coach but he should have been given a position on the staff and allowed to retire as a part of the Dallas Cowboys franchise. Even after this I still stuck with them, it was obvious by Jimmy Johnson's second year that good things would happen. When Johnson pulled the greatest turn around ever in NFL history it made Jerry Jones look like a genius.

When JJ would not give Johnson control of the team it showed that the asshole who threw Landry in the street was all he could be. The man has absolutely no class whatsoever and I love to watch them get their asses beat now just to enjoy the expressions on his face. It is a lot more fun to watch the Cowboys looking forward to these displays of envy than to cringe at the interceptions or penalty flags.
