Dallas was a serious contender last year and look what happened. How many playoff losses will it take before 'Boys fans realize Romo is not the one? 2188789

We all know that you cant take talent and potential to the bank. I think what irks people about the 'boys and their fans is its alright to love your team but regardless of what year it is the cowboys are crowned champs and every year they come up short. Cowboys fans love to bring up the fact that they've won 5 superbowls but half of the 20 - 25 year olds that argue the point weren't alive for the first two and were little kids during the last three. I'm a skins fan so I have no choice but to hate the cowboys, but please just be realistic. The Mavs and the Cowboys will continue to disappoint. 2188785

You mean that a team is not ever guaranteed a Super Bowl victory and that winning the big one is tough? Well golly gee willickers. I seem to remember negative predictions about the Giants last year, but they finished it all by winning the Super Bowl Championship. Dallas may not have the World Championship given to them on a silver platter, but they are serious contenders. 2133935

Hey, jealousy is the name of the game here..... Cowboys fans have something to look forward to and all the "bashers" on here are fans of teams who are going nowhere. It's more fun to bash the 'boys than it is to admit that their team sucks, is surrounded by chaos, has half the team refusing to show up for workouts, is getting busted for offense after offense, whatever. I feel no need to constantly rebutt the vindictive of every yakk who comes on here and talks smack. I can simply enjoy the memory of reading the content of this page in the season, when real games are being played, and the Dallas Cowboys are sodomizing your favorite teams. Mr. "I was voted SB MVP because there was noone else to choose" had better enjoy his little ring because it is the last he'll ever put on his finger. 1932775

Crowning.... Thats B.S. the media is creating this crowning thing and blaming it on the fans. Fans in Dallas are just like fans anywhere else when it comes to getting excited about our team. The fact is they havent won a playoff game in a long while and we realize that. Which is exactly why we are even more excited to be on the verge of being a great team again. There is not a football fan in the country who doesnt start buzzing about his team especially after a 13-3 season. If this suprises you then so would snow in December, or sand on a beach. If you really want to know what gets us Cowboys fans so excited when we start to get a team like this its really easy.....Jerry Jones. You see we Cowboys fans are lucky to have an owner who will do anything he is capable of to bring us a championship. He is not like other owners who hinder their ball clubs he is a deal closer and we trust him wether on draft day or in free agent signing. Thats why we get so excited in times like these. And ask yourself this, if the roster is not as good as people are making it out to be, then what NFC team would you say has a better? Id love to hear ya make the case. 1932442

"...bringing in criminals and malcontents like tank, pacman, and TO won't get you anywhere. see Bengals." NYGIANTSSB42CHAMPS | 06/05/08, 03:23 PM With all due respect, the Bengals have a 5 - 8 playoff record in their ENTIRE HISTORY. How does that compare to the Cowboys with a 32 - 24 record (which by the way is a heck of a lot better than the Giants at 20-23 in the post season). The Bengals might give "criminals and malcontents" a chance in the NFL, but that doesn't mean the ones they chose had true talent on the football field or that the Bengals organization has the capability of helping turn around troubled players like the Cowboys. You're comparing cow chips to Super Bowl rings. One has nothing to do with the other. Ultimately, the risks Jerry Jones has made will be judged by what happens on the gridiron. So, l say let 'em play the game and then we'll see. 1918930

1. Yes, the Cowboys have not had a playoff win in 12 years. And you point is? Name me one team that has gone to more playoff appearances in its team history than the 'Boys. Name me one team that has played in more playoff games than Dallas. Name me one team that has more Super Bowl appearances and wins than the Cowboys. You can't. NOW, name me one team that has NEVER gone through a playoff drought at some point in it's history. Again, you can't. Going through a playoff "victory" drought doesn't mean the Cowboys can't make it all the way to the big show again. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a naive idiot. 2. Yes, the Giants beat the Cowboys in the playoffs and are Super Bowl champs, but that doesn't guarantee them a repeat victory any more than a playoff loss last year ensures another loss this year for the Cowboys. Eli struggled in the playoffs at first, and so has Tony, but then Eli won the big one...so why can't Tony? The only difference I see is Dallas Fans aren't calling for the removal of their star QB like many Giants fans did to Eli right up to the playoffs last year. Personally, I'm patient and have faith in Romo and the Cowboys. They're an awesome team with a lot of talent and potential. 3. To the Bears fan who was talking smack. Dude. Get real. But for one shining year in the 80s, with dorky wanna-be singing dancers and an interesting QB, the Bears suck. (I think even my opposing G-men, Skins, and Eagles fans would agree with me on that one. Not to mention the Cheeseheads. And it takes a lot for all of us to agree on anything. LOL) 4. Since coming to Dallas, TO has been a leader in the locker room and a record-breaker on the field, so we Dallas fans are glad to have him. Adam...seems sincere, and we know he's talented, so time will tell with him. All in all, the Boys have a great chance at going all the way, but they'll have to work harder than any other team to do it, because one thing is for certain; they're in the toughest division and every NFL team will be gunning for them... which is nothing new. 1918619

Perloff, you're a ****. You've been reduced to blogging, which I generally do in my spare time. When you get back on the real SI website, if they ever let you write with the real people again, try and do something besides write to incite. 1913952

WHO WON THE SUPERBOWL??? WHO WENT TO DALLAS AND RIPPED OUT THE COWBOYS' HEART??? WHO HASN'T WON A PLAYOFF GAME IN 12 YEARS??? bringing in criminals and malcontents like tank, pacman, and TO won't get you anywhere. see Bengals. 1913104

<img src="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/nfl/05/28/delhomme.ap/p1_owens2.jpg" height="240" align="right" alt="" width="200" style="width: 200px; height: 240px" />Bring in Denny Green, because apparently everyone is ready to crown the Cowboys. The latest wave of adulation for the 'Boys comes on the tails of news that they re-signed Terrell Owens and Pacman Jones is partially reinstated.T.O. is an outstanding player and the Cowboys are definitely a weaker team without him. But don't get too excited about his four-year, $34 million contract. How many playoff games has Owens won in Dallas? (zero) How old is he? (35) How often has he been hurt? (often). How emotional is he? (postgame tears).The recent drying up of the receiver free-agent pool might have given the Cowboys little choice but to extend Owens. But there's still a lot of risk. At his age, he's not going to get less injury prone. And how many times have we seen players sign big contracts and subsequently get hurt.Several writers have speculated this contract extension is insurance to make sure he doesn't get upset with the team. To even suggest that points to Owens' capricious nature. Although he's behaved fine in  Dallas - except for run-ins with Bill Parcells, his vitamin overdoes and an ill-timed Jessica Simpson joke - his fiery days in Philadelphia aren't that far behind him. That was only three years ago. I have trouble believing players arrive in Dallas and completely transform themselves just by wearing the star. Which brings us to ...Deion Sanders II. That's what Pacman Jones better be to justify all the headlines he's gotten. Finding the chemistry to win a Super Bowl is an elusive assignment, which seems to have a lot more to it than just talent. Whatever the perfect mix is, Pacman doesn't move the Cowboys in the right direction. Dallas is a good team. But stop the offseason coronation. Where's the skepticism? This is T.O. and Pacman we're talking about. And I haven't even gotten to Wade Phillips or the loss of Tony Sparano. Not to mention the brutal NFC East. As usual, I have a feeling some of you disagree. Let me know below in the comments.   http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/397/2/thumb/Perloff.jpg 684 NY
