"I've always said Dallas isn't so much a sports town as it is a winner's town,"

I've BEEN saying this.

It's ridiculous. And it's this way in EVERY sport. Yeah I know when teams get good, fanship increases....but Dallas is ridiculous.

Dallas is the place where sports marketing is realized 100%. When a team gets better, people here go 1000% overboard in their "fanship"

It's why my whole family has always hated the Cowboys and probably why I grew up disliking them.

LOL @ The Rangers comment, that's pure comedy and 100% truth

Just look at the evolution of the Coli' ... the last 2 seasons birthed the TX Ranger season threads

Actually, there were Ranger threads since lik '08 or 09. You just never noticed and obviously they weren't AS big.

Let me put it like this, there are many diehard fans here....but the majority that attend games are casual fans. Mexicans here LOVE the Cowboys

This pretty much sums it up.....

Of course you'll have those cheering even if they have a terrible season but let them start winning....nikkas start coming out the wood works saying they been cheering for years....

Can't speak for any other fanbase but as a Mavs Daniel definitely noticed an uptick in fans as the team made the run to the 2011 Finals. I do know quite a few local Mavs fans. Most of the ones I know are loyal to Dirk before the team.

That's true. Cowboys fans outside of Dallas LOVE the Cowboys more than Dallas folk.

You could argue the same for the Lakers, too.


That may be true for you but in my experience,nahhhh..

I ran into a dude back in 2007 who was wearing a Cowboys jersey,u know when they were contenders. I had my Favre jersey on and he straight up said, Packers gonna lose to Cowboys next week! I said,we'll see,i bet your QB throws more INT's then TD's. WARNING: the following comment will change your outlook on Cowboy fans....He replied with, Yea right,Emmitt Smith is a great QB....I was like :wtf: Smith aint even playing no more let alone a QB. He then replied with,did he get injured or something? haven't been watching the news lately....I nearly died from his ignorance....No joke here brehs...No exaggeration...That day sealed the fate of all Cowboy fans in my eyes.(well most)
