What it means to be a Cowboy fan

[Mr. Scot]

 

When Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning was a free agent a few years ago, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones never pursued him.

 

That’s because, Jerry Jones said, he already had a franchise quarterback in place in Tony Romo.

 

“I was so committed to Romo, so committed to his future,” Jerry Jones said Friday on KRLD-FM. “Of course, Peyton has been a friend for a long time and someone we respect a lot. There were a lot of moving parts during that particular time. The real reason it didn’t work out is because we are as committed as we are to Tony.”

So he didn't go after Peyton Manning...because he had Tony Romo :blink:

 

I'd say that pretty well sums up what it is to be a Cowboy fan these days.

Not to worry guys.

 

Jerry Jones is still in charge, and still thinks he's doing a great job.

their fans are still talking poo about the jimmy johnson era.  it was bad enough when they were a legit threat in the NFC a few years back.  jerrah can live to be 120 for all i care.

[Mr. Scot]

Johnson did't do so good when he had to coach under the salary cap.

 

Minus the ability to outspend everybody (and the benefits of a trade made by an idiot GM) the Cowboys have been decidedly average to below average.

 

And the fact that they paid Tony Romo a contract like Rodgers, Brady or Manning would deserve still boggles my mind :wacko:

[Mr. Scot]

To his credit, Romo had a good day today.

 

Except for that one...little...thing :lol:

Romo is great in the regular season. Haters gonna hate I guess.
