No Cowboys fans are from Dallas. They are all from Largo, Maryland or Tucson, Arizona. They all just decided to root for that team because they won a bunch of Superbowls. I find this to be lame, and shallow and so do the Arizona Cardinals. They don’t do much right out there in Glendale, but I think they are handling this the the right way. They are trying to keep these loud, obnoxious, unloyal fans of coke-heads out of their gorgeous new stadium.
In the past two seasons, there was little concern about this since the team sold out every home game. But with ticket sales a bit slower as the third season approaches, the Cardinals are requiring fans who want to buy tickets to the Dallas game on Oct. 12 to also buy tickets for the Aug. 7 exhibition opener vs. New Orleans. Cardinals fans have “created a decisive home-field advantage” the past two years, and the team wants to keep it that way by discouraging single-game ticket sales to Dallas Cowboys fans, team spokesman Mark Dalton said.
Good. Fuck em. If yer from Dallas, we got no beef. It’s the fact that I have never MET a Cowboys fan from Dallas, Texas. The Cardinals would be better suited to put a better product on the field rather than resorting to this type of shikanery, but we all know that’s not going to happen. Until that happens, just throw anyone from Mesa or White Marsh in Cowboys colors over the side of the stadium.

I’ve floated around the country a bit so I have a hard time settling on a team that is really “mine”. I’ve never been stationed anywhere that the team isn’t godawful so its a crapshoot. I’ve always sort of hated the Cowboys though. I remember excitedly watching to see if Troy Aikman would get permanently knocked into retardation. Now when I see him on Nerf commercials all I can do is chuckle. I guess he’s got a handful of Superbowl rings and bazillions of dollars though so he gets the last laugh. I bet he laughs like Corkie.
Good for AZ. I don’t know if ultimatums are the smart way to increase revenue, but damn its funny.

I heart pics of Tony Romo crying

Get your ring finger ready? Huh, I guess Tony Romo is going to get his engagement ring.

F the Cowboys. For a team that hasn’t won a single playoff game in 12 years to get the amount of off-season coverage they’ve gotten is ridiculous. Better yet, F the Giants as well, stupid Eli and his one great game against my boys. F him the most. Yeah, I’m still bitter.
Drab is gay.

You nailed it Fukes, I’ve been preaching this philosophy for years. Nothing in sports annoys me more than cocky, trash-talking Cowboys or Yankees or Lakers fans who have never been further from the DC area than a Sonic in Fredericksburg.
I will however allow someone to be grand-fathered into a team if their father raised them that way. Only exception.
July 23rd, 2008 at 5:44 pm
My father works about ten minutes from FedEx field and he is the only person in about a office of 50 that is a skins fan. The rest of mooks are Cowboys fans. Like Jimmy said to Tommy when Spider told Tommy to go fuck himself and Tommy didnt do anything, “WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO!”

A great video clip of a bandwagon Cowboys fan about 1:00 into the video
July 23rd, 2008 at 8:15 pm
Cowboys fans not from Texas are so goddamn annoying. When I worked at Lids they all came in and started cackling about how we need to just dump the Redskins section for more Cowboys stuff. Go choke in the post-season and cry about it on National tv again.
July 23rd, 2008 at 8:54 pm
Hey, do you know where I can get some hookers and blow?
July 23rd, 2008 at 9:11 pm
Bandwagon fans are not true sports fans. THey just go for whoever is popular at the time … or they are foreign. Simple as that. Let them revel in the fact they’ve been a fan for two years and have no idea what they are talking about.
July 23rd, 2008 at 10:08 pm
I totally agree! I’m a devoted Steelers fan who is actually from Pittsburgh. I’ve lived in Arizona and now Virginia and if I meet one more person who tells me they’re the “biggest Steelers fan,” I’m going to choke them. You have to be from Pittsburgh to really understand the blue-collar mentality of our Steelers. You can be a fan, just don’t tell me you’re the “biggest” fan! And screw the Cowboys! I hate them!
July 23rd, 2008 at 10:48 pm
They are pretty Arrogant that’s for sure. I got a fellin all the other NFC East teams are gonna be poundin on them this year. Givin the Skinz, Giants n Eagles fans plenty of ammo for the verbal wars.
July 24th, 2008 at 2:57 am
Cowboys fans in DC aren’t even bandwagon, they are just assholes who want attention and like to argue by rooting against the home team. Unless they grew up in Texas, they totally suck.
Hail to the Redskins!
July 24th, 2008 at 12:07 pm
I couldn’t believe it when i went into my local ghetto walmart and found they had a shitload of Cowboy gear and no redskins shirts!!!!!!
July 24th, 2008 at 3:01 pm
Romo is a homo. And T.O has B.O.
Am I 5 for saying that?
Yes.
July 24th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
wtf, Cowboys gonna whip that Skins ass AS ALWAYS this year
July 25th, 2008 at 12:20 am
As a Seahawks fan I will always get a laugh when I see that photo.
Also all this talk about you can’t be a “Huge” fan unless you are from said place (I lived in Seattle by the way) is retarded. If you are a fan of a team you are a fan of a team. Just as long as you don’t jump from team to team, that is what makes you a fairweather fan.
Also Cowboys fans aren’t A-holes, A-holes are A-holes, the fact that they like a sports team just makes them an A-hole that likes that team (It just seems that Dallas has way more A-holes than any other team, OK maybe the Raiders and Pats give them a run but it’s close).
July 25th, 2008 at 3:57 am
My parents were from Texas, they support the Cowboys…if I didn’t they would probably kill me.
I’ve got my excuse: What’s yours?
July 25th, 2008 at 10:57 am
You are now known as king fukerton to all of us cause you got all these dumb ass cowboy fans here in DC. I am so sick and fucking tired of hearing their mouths when none of them can’t even find texas on the map! cowboys suck and all of you who like them cause TO and Romo are in that Team should roll with Drab cause all of you are straight GAY!
July 25th, 2008 at 11:06 am
To JustinWF:
Pat’s bandwagon fans are A-holes. The rest of us from that area have suffered for decades with our basement dwelling team. I don’t talk smack and know eventually my boys will be bad again. Let us have our time in the sun. You Skins fans had that.
July 25th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
how the fuck does this DTC crew still get away with this shit?? How many videos do these deutches need to make of them more or less assaulting random fans in the parking lots and flashing their heaters before somebody at fedex will do something. If it was just some randos that floated around the stadium i understand it woule be hard to track them down. They openly advertise where they will be found each sunday morning smoking weed and doing god knows what else.
I cant wait til they finally fuck with the wrong dude and they press charges not only against the mayor and his crew of assbags but against the redskins and the managment of fedex field. It would be an open and shut case that management knew what they were doing, where they were doing it, and did nothing to stop it.
I dont care if you are cheering for… the eagles, the skins, the giants, whoever… you have to agree these guys are not only bad for the city and team but bad for the sport as a whole.
August 2nd, 2008 at 11:12 pm
maybe if d.c didnt have such shitty fuckin teams,then there would be a reason to root for them.fuckin homers are just as bad.technically,if your not from landover m.d.you cant be a redskins fan.so as a virginian,im supposed to root for a team that plays in maryland.why not root for the ravens?assholes.
August 4th, 2008 at 12:50 am
I’ve been a cowboys fan since I was 6 years old. 20 years later i love them more than ever. It’s been a rough DECADE and while there are a ton of bandwagoners, there are even more genuine fans that have stood by the ridicule, the hate, the losses and everything else.
Go Cowboys!
August 4th, 2008 at 7:39 pm
if you dont like your home team, your either gay, a loser, queer, a moron, a closet homosexual or a woman who picks your team based on uniform. not that there is anything wrong with that
October 1st, 2008 at 1:22 pm
Really can’t talk that much S, cause they skins did beat the Cowboys last Sunday.
But I guess to Fukes I am one of those not from Dallas, Dallas Fan. But I was brought up from it through my mom, pops, and brother. I have been a Dallas fan from when I can remember, even before ALL of their superbowl rings. But I don’t have much to celebrate out here with the AZ Retardinals, so I’m proud to be a Dallas Fan.
So F all you haters!
October 8th, 2008 at 1:24 pm
Redscar you are a douch! My whole Family is from Buffalo but i was born in VA so by default I am a redskins fan and will always be.
Quit using your parents as an excuse you turd!
October 9th, 2008 at 7:35 pm
Couldn’t agree more. Except substitute “Cowboys fans” with “Red Sox fans” and it wouldbe even more accurate.
Take away the bandwagon jumpers and there’s no Red Sox Nation. Just good fans that rooted for their team when they sucked for almost a century.
October 11th, 2008 at 10:49 pm
Hopefully the Cards are going to kick some Cowgirl ASS tomorrow! I expect it to be 40% Cowgirl fans but make no mistake, the Cards fans will rise up and be heard! Here’s to TO crying on the sidelines again!
October 15th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
I love Dukes, when he says, “What part of Dallas you from?” and the stupid fans say , “Reston” or “Rockville” or Douchebagville…
Go get em!
October 16th, 2008 at 11:52 am
Fuck’em.
Fuck’em where they breathe.

Texas oil tycoon Clint Murchison, Jr. was having a hard time bringing an NFL team to Dallas, Texas. He tried buying two teams, but the negotiations fell through. In 1958, Murchison heard that George Preston Marshall, owner of the Washington Redskins, was eager to sell the team. Just as the sale was about to be finalized, Marshall called for a change in terms. Murchison was outraged and canceled the whole deal.
Around this time, Marshall had a falling out with the Redskin band director, Barnee Breeskin. Breeskin had written the music to the Redskins fight song, now a staple at the stadium; additionally, Marshall’s wife penned the lyrics to the song. Breeskin wanted revenge after the failed negotiations with Marshall. He approached Tom Webb, Murchison’s lawyer, and sold the rights for $2,500.
Murchison then decided to create his own team, with the support of NFL expansion committee chairman, George Halas. Halas decided to put the proposition of a Dallas franchise before the NFL owners, which needed to have unanimous approval in order to pass. The only owner against the proposal was George Preston Marshall. However, Marshall found out that Murchison owned the rights to Washington’s fight song, so a deal was finally struck. If Marshall showed his approval of the Dallas franchise, Murchison would return the song. The Cowboys were then founded and began playing in 1960.

COWBOYS SUCK!!!!!
October 22nd, 2008 at 9:35 pm
I know your pain.I have 1 bro who is a dallas fan 1 that is a steelers fan with my mom and none of them have ever lived anywhere but Virginia WTF. By the way Dukes you remember banging chicks @ Orange Hunt Elementry on that massive wooden Playground hahahaha ……
October 24th, 2008 at 12:48 am
I moved from a London to Washington DC in 1994 and saw so much hated for Dallas Cowboys that i become Cowboys fan since than, What is wrong with that? now its what 14 years and counting and a die hard cowboys fan living in this area, i think its amazing.. also, i dont have nfl package and still get almost all of the cowboys game on local tv, i am loving it. Go boys and i accept, its not looking good for us before it gets too late so Cowboy up NOW!!!
October 24th, 2008 at 6:13 am
I’ve met only 2 Dallas fans actually from Texas (not exactly Dallas, but I figure close enough). They are the only excusable Dallas fans I know. And I know a lot of them.
I hate Cowboys fans. Almost as band-wagoning as Giants or Colts fans.
November 7th, 2008 at 8:24 pm
I know plenty of people who always pick fights bc it’s the only way anyone will talk to them…..and there is the true explaination of a DC Cowboys fan.
November 10th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
I’m from the DC area…and I have been a Cowboys fan for over 20 yrs. Not like the bandwagoners, I became a Cowboys fan for other reasons. When we went 1-15, I was still wearing my cowboys gear. When I moved to Seattle & worked for the Seahawks, I still repped my Cowboys.
November 12th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
I am in the military and have been all over the world and the problem I have with DC is the majority of Skins fans I run into are fair weather fans. If the skins are winning you see all the cars with helmet stickers and a flag on each window. But if they lose even a hard fought game they abandon ship as if it were the Titanic.
November 17th, 2008 at 3:55 pm
What a joke. At the game last night all the dallas fans that wanted to talk shit, I would pose the question, what part of Texas are you from?? 99% of the responses were uhh virginia..following that I would say your probably a yankees fan too right….uhh yea. STOP WATCHING SO MUCH DAMN ESPN!! All this americas team bandwagon losers how can you look in the mirror and actually consider yourself a fan. Gimmie a break!
November 21st, 2008 at 10:21 pm
what is even worse than all these bandwagon douchers, are the Cs who are die hard fans (when their team is winning). But, if the shit hits the wall and their team starts to suck they stop supporting their team. it is just like, are you serious? those are the posers…
December 12th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
it aint just cowboy fans that arent from texas,yall trippin.im from houston man,i hate the cowboy fans that arent straight from dallas.they are all from the valley or san antonio or wherever.they aint from houston cus we got a team.i understand if u dont gave a team.but let me guess….if the texans won a ring next year there would be a bunch of texans fans not from houston?thats sum bullshit.true fans are fans throught the good and bad times.fuck the cowboys,romos overraited and chokes in big games,owens is a crybaby,and jerry jones keeps pickin up players that are headeaches.
December 18th, 2008 at 9:37 pm
yea fuck the cowboys the suck man
