Who cares about the Cowgirls. From their owner to their receiver, what's his name,#81, they're a bunch of errogant snubs. They have to be errogant to call themselves America's team. As far as I'm concerned, they're not America's team, the Colts are since they are the most recent winners of the Superbowl. Go 'Skins!

Hah, skins--thats pretty fun. Considering that the Cowboys will more than likely go to the Super Bowl and the skins won't win 4 games you may want to calm down. I like Jerry Jones and Steinbrenner because they only care about one thing--winning. TO will dominate this year, I hope you can handle it.

Attaboy Spence!! Play hard and keep your nose clean in Big D.

Reading the previous posts, it's tough to say who the bigger jerk is between Snyder and Jones. I hate to see either one win.

Go Steelers!

Geez, I feel like I've been dealing with arrogant, annoying Cowboys fans my whole life. "...Cowboys will more than likely go to the Super Bowl..."

That's pretty funny!! More than a 50/50 shot they are SB bound ;) Silly Cowboys fan!!

The DEADSkins will definitely win more than 4 games, I'd say atleast 6, maybe 7. After last season, I'd be happy with that. How many playoff games have the Cowgirls won in the last 10 years?? They couldn't even win with the Tuna, and you think they'll go to the Super Bowl??!! That's your heart talking. I don't care if the Skins go 2-14 as long as those 2 wins are against you guys like 2 years ago when we stunned you guys in Dallas. This is a great rivalry, I love it. Cheers mate.

It isn't arrogance. It's fact. They are called "America's Team" because they have been in the Super Bowl 8 times. But it's not only for that reason. It is also because they are the most watched team. When they play ... America watches. This is why their games are broadcast as often as they are ... even when they are not doing well.

This is not true of Indianapolis. They are doing well now, and people watch. But lose their star QB, and only a few faithful fans would continue to watch.

And as for the Redskins ... long time rivals for America's team ... but so sad. Gibbs can't win without the talent, and likely this will be the end of an era for a great coach. When their owner decides he wants to win football games, perhaps they will be thought of again as a team to be reckoned with, but that is not the case right now.

And oh, by the way, it is the case with the Cowboys.

Now did you notice I didn't need to lower myself and call the Redskins by some "put-down" name in order to make my point? You might try it sometime. Perhaps then people might think you actually know what it is you are talking about. But as it is, you don't.

Perhaps you haven't been reading what is going on in Dallas. Let me fill you in.

No one can predict a Super Bowl. Even the best teams falter in play off games. But a winning season this year?

Oh yea. I don't think there is any doubt of that!
This is the best team being fielded in Dallas since the days of Aikman. By far the best team. In their division, only Phily represents a threat, and with McNabb's history, I don't think a serious threat. Redskins are not a factor. And the Giants kept their coach, which means they will be good, but not great.

Everything is looking waaaaaaaaaaaaaay up for the Cowboys.

I have been a fan of football for 40 years. I find it just a tad bit odd that you consider Cowboy fans arrogant. I find them just the opposite. Confident at times, but not arrogant.

Have you seen how the fans act in Chicago? Or Phily? Or Oakland? Or a lot of other places.
You see very little of that foolishness in Dallas.

This is a true example of why so many people including myself hate the Cowboys. You can just feel the erogance coming off this post. I am an American, I pay my taxes, I drink beer, I watch football and your Cowboys are not my team. Just because you like watching them doesn't make them our team, the 70s are over pal.

As for the Redskins, come on, they have the worst owner in the NFL next to Jerry Jones, I don't even want to waste my time commenting about those jokers. I think the whole NFC East is over-rated. In the NFC this year, you got Carolina, Tampa Bay, Chicago, Greenbay, San Fran, Seattle, St. Louis, so many good teams, who knows who'd make it out of there.

The Cowboys coaching staff is just so questionable, how can you hire all the assistants before you hire the coach?? This is exactly what Jerry Jones did, it reminds me of Parcel's famous saying, "if you want me to cook you a meal, you should atleast let me buy the grocieries!". That's exactly what's going on there, and then evertime the game is not going their way, Jones comes down on the side line to coach, it's hilarious, what a joker he is. You want to see a classy organization, look at the Pittsburgh Steelers, you never see mess like that.

Cheers to all, even the Cowboy fans! I'm so excited it's almost football season.
