This is emotional trauma that will be digested and unpacked for many years to come.@Codeine Bryant talk to me breh.
The fact that I'm not even referring to the Cowboys while being in this thread makes it 7.7x worse.
Rangers won. Stars are an A1 organization the last 10 years with Jim Nill.
Longhorns brehs have Vince Young and Nepo Baby Manning.
I'd like to say it's gonna be alright, but I gotta call a spade a spade. These are devastating times, brother.
It's been 3 days and I'm still not ok, man.
Jerry and the Boys have been peppering me with hits and breaking me down over the years and I was knocked down after the latest playoff chokes and coaching hire.
This weekend was a fukking curbstomp. I feel like a family member died.
I might be completely out.
Said the same thing to my sister yesterdayI feel like a family member died.
I am. Definitely until Nico is fired and maybe longer. This fukkery has made me do the unthinkable. I'll root for Luka to win trophies in a Lakers uniform.
Rather that than support the Nico Dumont Adelson SuperPAC thinktank. They killed the entire basketball culture in Dallas with this move.
I am down bad brehs. Can't even peek in that Luka thread. I want Nico's head on a stake. Nothing more, nothing less. This is the greatest betrayal in DFW history. There is a black cloud over this town. The children of DFW are crying to sleep every night. This type of sports betrayal happens to low-level cities like Houston (Oilers), or Cleveland (Browns). It doesn't happen in my city. No, Nico needs to be dealt with and the soulless freaks from Vegas need to be forced to sell. There are too many billionaires in this city to not have a local owner.It's been 3 days and I'm still not ok, man.

This is worse than 06 Finals, Nelson Cruz, Jose Bautista, Dez Catch, Romo fumble combined x20.
I was thinking about moving back to Dallas once this run in NYC is done for me, but I don’t think I’ll ever look at the city the same.
This goes beyond sports. Nico fukked over the entire fabric of society in the city of Dallas. Dumont greenlighting this trade is equally as braindead as Nico snaking the organization and fanbase.
This didn’t just ruin my appetite for basketball, I’m done with sports in general for a while.
Emmitt Smith: Cowboys shouldn't draft RB Ashton Jeanty for one key reason
The NFL's all-time rushing king has seen some impressive ballcarriers come and go since he last wore the star in 2002. And while the Hall of Famer has never been shy about calling for his former team to get back to establishing a smashmouth run game like the one that…

But when asked if the Cowboys should select Jeanty with the 12th overall pick, Smith was blunt.
"I don't think so."
It's not, Smith went on to explain, because he doesn't think the Frisco native is a talented young star in the making.
In fact, that's exactly why Smith says he hopes this current iteration of the Dallas organization steers clear.
"I don't think the Cowboys clearly understand what they really want," the three-time Super Bowl winner said. "They're after excitement and thrills and stuff, and they don't have a plan. First of all, they don't even have a plan, truly, for Dak Prescott, let alone CeeDee Lamb. Where's the plan? The plan they have right now has not made sense over the last couple years, so all of a sudden you're going to wake up and come up with a plan for a new kid?"
Smith- and other former Cowboys players- have been increasingly vocal about the Cowboys' apparent lack of direction in recent years: playing games with superstars' contracts, refusing to spend on high-quality free agents, and paying nothing more than lip service to the idea of assembling a roster designed to contend for championships on a regular basis.
Adding another playmaker to an offense that is already fumbling about with Prescott and Lamb in the huddle is not the answer, according to Smith.
"Plan for what you already have and allow things to fit that plan and be committed to that plan," Smith said, "and I think that's been the problem."
"There's been a commitment to excellence on the brand side, but on the operations, when it comes down to the football side, there's no commitment to who we are and the brand that was built," Smith offered. "And the brand that was built was balance: Troy, Michael, myself. That's why you call us the Triplets. You cannot have one without the other; you've got to have it all. You've got to have a ground attack as well as an air attack.
"Now, Ashton Jeanty could be good for us under the right plan and under the right commitment and under the right vision. Right now, I think these things are bifurcated, and that's why you're getting all this disjointedness throughout the last 25, 30 years."
Dez Bryant on Brian Schottenheimer as Cowboys head coach: 'It won't be successful'
Yahoo Sports’ Caroline Fenton chats with the former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver from Super Bowl LIX Radio Row about his skepticism about the new Cowboys head coach and what's missing in Dallas. Dez joined Yahoo Sports on behalf of Fanatics.

"I'm an energy guy," Bryant said. "I don't know the coach, I can't wish good or bad on him, but my energy is telling me that it won't be successful."
"I just think it's gonna be too much for him. I think it's bigger than just him being the head coach. I don't know if he can deal with the scrutiny of the fans," Bryant said. "Us Cowboy fans, us Texans, we love our football, we ready to win. Cowboys ain't won a Super Bowl since the '90s. Like I said, I was a fan playing for the hometown team, so I get it. I don't know if he'll be able to deal with all that rah-rah from guys like us. So I don't see success.
