My Cowboys troll post (1 Viewer)

Here's what I had to say about the almight Cowboys... I sure wish I didn't have to be so nice about it though.
Geaux Saints

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm just trolling the "Zone" here and what bothers me is the number of lame excuses that are offered for the job that the Saints did on the Cowboys. All conspiracy theories involving the draft and Tuna throwing the game aside (I mean, are you serious???), what happened was a clash of two 8-4 teams that were highly ranked on paper and appeared to be an interesting matchup. What actually happened was the Saints superior execution outmatched that of the Cowboys. The gameplan was great on our behalf- utilizing the many offensive weapons at our disposal.
Once the lead was established, Romo (I kinda like the guy, a little) was forced to pass. The Saints, for the most part, played man to man with safety help, which allows for little room for error on the qb's part. The key was to contain Romo so he couldn't buy time for the wr's to beat the man coverage. No Saints turnovers helped too.
I'm not here to rub it in, but all of America witnessed the effort that the Saints put forward. The better team won. If there were a rematch in the playoffs, I am positive the gameplans for both teams would be different, but I'm very skeptical of the proposition that the result would be any different. Surely it'll be a closer game on the scoreboard, but the same result nevertheless. The Saints offense is potent (an understatement) and their defense is a lot better that everyone gives them credit for.
I think the issue that most Cowboys fans have a problem with is losing to a team that has been a laughingstock for so many years. Five superbowls is much more impressive that one total playoff win. I admire the Cowboys history, but as Coach Herm said, "You play to win the game." If only for this year, the Saints are a legitimate team.
Cowboys fans are blessed, but at the same time cursed. You are blessed to have been to the mountain top five times, but the price that you pay is believing that you have the potential, or even worse, the right, to go there every year. As a lifelong Saints fan, who's greatest hour was a single playoff win a few years back, I appreciate any success that is acheived. No NFL team deserves to win just because of who they are. It is determined on the field. With that said, I think the Cowboys will fare just fine the rest of this season. It's not the end of the world that the Saints are a really good team this year.
"Every dog has its day." Here's to a successful and injury-free remainding 3 games. Thanks.

Amazing post. Always be nice, be classy, and show respect. We're SAINTS fans and should conduct ourselves as such. Let them post the tripe and trash that has unfortunately taken over the fanbase of every team we've beaten this season. If they wanna say spiteful things about our city, Hurricane Katrina, etc. -- LET THEM. Karma makes its way to people like that. In fact on Monday some loser posted this on the Saints Myspace group:

Do you have a link to that? I'd like to see what they had to say.

 

[Craig Walker]

That.......was a great post.

I'm really surprised you aren't banned on that board. Some of the guys here have been banned just because they are SAINTS fans.
Really great post you made. I think it shows a lot of class and sportsmanship, that follows a great and winning team -- our SAINTS.
:17:

I wish that everyone from this board who ventures onto opposing teams' boards would post classy posts like that. I'm sure that every board gets a mixture of excellent posts like that with a collection of garbage. That's what we see over here, and we ban the trolls. It would be nice if our fans got a good internet reputation. I think that "foreigners" who come to the Superdome get treated pretty well--unlike other places. That should carry over into our internet exchanges..

I totally agree. We should always show class and try to represent our team and the city well.

Good job wowatkin.

 

[mvtrucking]

Very good post Wowatkin. I would really like to check out the responses to that. Classy job indeed.

 

[Domeination]

Yeah, how'd they respond?

 

[kfran]

Very professional and truthful, wowatkin. I'm sure reciprocal Cowboy fans will appreciate your words. Yet, many of the folks up here in Dallas who are still in denial, won't.

Good Job!
