Are Cowboys really America's Team?

[tw1st3d]

nope .... only reason the Saints bandwagon got jumped on was because of Katrina.....

Add in people root for an underdog.

They won one .... and now they are back to wearing bags....

Please with the Saints being america's team..... cranck your clown car and ride in the parade if you believe that

 

[SickFelonIsGOAT]

What is the prize for being America's Team? You said some reasons why you think Cowboys are America's Team, but I still don't see what the big deal is? What is so special?

 

[tw1st3d]

I didnt say it was a big deal.........

Make the most money ... Have the biggest following... Draw the most viewers....

That's why they are America's team.

None of those result in wins/losses ... Is what it is

Fair enough.

and for decades your team was the laughing stock of the league. Cycles happen.

Dallas is still Americas team. The number of fans that show up at road games proves that. The popularity, despite some thinking that everyone hates Dallas is what makes us Americas teams...for whatever "Americas team" even means. It doesn't mean "who has won the most recently".

Yes we were, but now that's your team. A laughing stock really, your not America's team anymore. America's team is the team everyone jumps on the bandwagon because there winning and that's the Pats.

 

[#1BostonFan]

being america's team has nothing to do with wins or losses.

Fact is more people will tune into a Cowboys game than any other game. Some to see the Cowboys win... Even more to see the Cowboys lose.....

but it is what it is.... Cowboys attract more media, more fans and haters, sell more merchandise, and just flat out attract more attention than any other team in pro sports.

Now if you hate the Cowboys.... and you are on this forum... you yourself explain why.

OFC it's America's Team.

Don't you think in 07 EVERYONE tuned in to see the Pats? They started playing all there games in prime time. Did that ever happen to the cowboys? Or ever in NFL history. 10 years from now everything you explained will be the Pats.

All the haters, bandwagon fans who never jumped off, etc.

Again it's a nick name, but only cowboy fans actually still think your America's team. You've been a joke for awhile.

Then by that logic, wouldn't the Ravens be America's Team?

 

[tw1st3d]

nah those are called bandwagon jumpers...... part time fans .... they dont buy much ... dont tune in much

Every team has those ...... Doesnt make you America's team.

What does then?

What does then?

I would have to say the media naming the Cowboys "America's Team" does.
Everyone outside of Dallas fans probably hates that name and it's the medias fault. Idk why anybody would want to be named that nowadays.

 

[tw1st3d]

The Pat's fan makes me laugh.....

You're right ... we have sucked for quite a few years now.

Now division rivals I can understand coming to talk trash..... But if we are meaningless...... Why are you here?

As much as you might hate it... it's people like you that tune in and pray for us to lose that drives the ratings up..... Hence most watched team.

You should hate yourself more than you hate the Cowboys... Cause people like you are what drives our ratings up.

I think the media named them that because of there dominance. I just think it's funny how mad Cowboy fans get when you try to take something away from them that doesn't exist. I also only think they still are America's team. We've all moved on considering how bad they are.

 

[tw1st3d]

What does?

Only two things.... Being so loved people tune in .... Or being so hated people tune in...

Got nothing to do with wins .... It's TV ratings and merchandise sales.

Pats arent even close.

I don't think anyone really cares if you win or lose. I'd say more people hate on the Pats then your team, but that's just me.

I'd say a lot of people tune in to either root for there bandwagon team or watch them lose. As I said who still roots against the cowboys?

 

[tw1st3d]

Every team in the NFC East draws more viewers and sells more than the Pats... EVERY TEAM

Ravens make more (SB really boosted them)
Denver
Pitt
San Fran
Vikes
Seattle

Pat's got a long way to grow before they even contend for that name

I'd take that bet.

 

[#1BostonFan]

I'd take that bet.

Outside the NFC East I'd say not many care at this point. The NFC is so powerful it makes you think all the NFL fans are haters, but I'd say it's mostly the NFC East trash talking.

 

[tw1st3d]

one or two years of hatred never match decades...... Thats for bandwagon fans living in the moment.

Cowboys almost 20 straight years in the playoffs. 2 superbowls 5 trips then 3 wins to follow.

Giants... 4 Sb Wins in the last 20 years

Skins 3 in the last 30 with 4 trips

Eagles are the eagles.... not winners... but a decade of being close.

Pats... nadda til recent..... and recent doesn't buy you crap when it comes to hated

Do it for 10 more years and you might just have a debate

 

[tw1st3d]

I'll add in one more thing.....

Pats have WHO in their division?

Sorry Hoss.... NFC East plays each other with a nastiness..... Put the Pats in this division.... They would win some games..... They wouldn't survive enough players to make a strong playoff run.

Hands down the way we play each other .... The nastiest division in football..... and that pretty boy finesse crap wouldnt last a season in this division
