NFL Discussion Thread - Hall of Fame Game: August 3rd

[100027]

The short version: The ******** were the last team to integrate. George Marshall heavily opposed desegregation and it took the Kennedy Administration threatening potential action against him before he finally decided to cave in. Being that at the time this occurred, there were quite a few African American's in the area, they naturally rooted for the team the Skins hated the most which were the Cowboys.

Judging from your post you really hate Dallas

.

If you are being serious, I have no problems sharing how I became a Cowboys fan.

And if you re-read my post, I never said there was an equal amount of merchandise around town. I said on those off brand stands around the malls there is a ton. When I first visited D.C. back in 2002, I nearly died after seeing all those "D.C. stands for Dallas Cowboys" t shirts.

That ether must burn the souls of ******** fans in D.C....

That's legit.  I knew that about Marshall, but didn't know that explanation about the Cowboys.  TIL.

The Rams were the first team to integrate in 1946 but as soon as the Cowboys were established in 1960, they integrated which was another reason why the people in D.C. decided to be Cowboys fans. One of my good friends is a Cowboys fan because of his pops, but his pops is a Cowboys fan because of HIS pops being a fan and that happened due to the above.

That's not to say that the Cowboys don't have many bandwagon fans. But IMHO, a bandwagon fan generally likes a team only when they are winning and will hop to a different team once that winning ceases. Miami Heat fans are a prime example. However, the Cowboys have not won in 17 years

If you are a fan of a franchise still after not winning for 17 years, you are good in my book.

56 yards in the first half. Just terrible. If we lose to a Thaddeus lewis lead bills team again we don't deserve to be in the playoffs.

Yea, but after double checking, probably won't be the best option since everything is in Chinese or something.

Maybe feed2all will work??

If they draft a QB in the first without addressing their skill position talent, they'll be firing everyone in another 2 years.

 

[elpablo21]

Say what you want about Mark Sanchez (this is not a post to excuse some of his more horrendous plays, butt fumble) but the guy is a class act. The organization set him up to fail since day 1. Threw him in at QB even though you knew he needed more experience and let him develop with a horrendous QB coach. Gave him an offense to work with that is equivalent to a high school team, brought in the whirlwind that is Tim Tebow, 3 offensive coordinators in 3 years, ruined the mans health in a meaningless preseason game in the 2nd half.

Where is he now? On the sideline clapping it up for Geno and the team. Just an observation.
