You don't know me from before...I've never thought these guys were Super Bowl contenders. I thought we were a 9-7, no playoff team from the get-go.
Really? Then why are you like a menopausal banshee and spouting off crap like this?
Why wouldn't you be upset? You should be. This team was supposedly a Super Bowl contender. Many expected this team to win 10+ and now we're 'okay' with 7 wins?
If you truly thought that this team was a 9-7 non-playoff team, then why are you upset and telling me that I should be upset because this team "was SUPPOSED" to be a Super Bowl contender? And yes, I will be ok with 7 wins. You miss the point entirely. The goals have changed. The goal naturally is to finsih the SECOND HALF of the season better than the first half. The team is looking to next year. It is a time now of evaluating coaches and players.
You're all over the place. On onehand you consider the Cowboys going 9-7 as UNDERACHIEVING, and then you claim that you thought that they were a 9-7 team from the get go. Well they may fulfill your expectations. So why are you upset?
Essentially, I'm just saying that you're already seeing the media and fans get excited about beating the Giants and I'm sure beating the almighty Lions will fuel the fire...it means nothing for this season and little for next. No need to get hyped up over a couple wins.
I'm excited about it. I'm excited for Garrett of all people, being that I was and possibly still---but a little less, one of his harshest critics on this board.
I'm excited for guys like McCann.
I'm excited about guys like Sean Lee.
I'm excited about guys like Barber, Davis, Colombo, and Sensbaugh because I hope this year is the last we will see of them in a Cowboys' uniform.
What since does it make to be pissed over a win? Myself, and many others are looking to the future. That's why we are excited.
As for beating the almighty Lions, had Wade still been here, we would have lost to them. Or do you really think that had Wade been here, that we would have went to New York and beaten the Giants?
Just stating that the majority of people thought we were Super Bowl contenders.
So what. They were brought back down to Earth.
If we beat the Saints on Thursday, do we have your permission to get hyped over win #3?
You're miserable, and you're looking for company. Sorry, you're not going to find it in abundance here. Just because many of us are hyped over the two consecutive wins, doesn't make us homers, but if it does... so what.
