Talk about being ignorant, look in the mirror dude. I have been a Dallas fan for 40 years and for my own reasons. There is no law anywhere that states you must be a fan of any given team if you live near them. Last I checked, this is a free country and you can root for whatever sports team you like. I my opinion, rooting for a team JUST BECAUSE they are the local team is ignorant. And YES, we were having a fun time in this thread until you stuck your nose in with YOUR ignorant comments. I'll probably regret making this post but you struck a nerve.
Excuse me. Why don't you reread this thread and tell me again, if you have an open mind if people were having "fun" prior to my post OR did the ignorant comments made about Eagles fans in general were justified because they weren't targeted towards Dallas fans.

There were some out of line comments made and I just wanted to clarify a few points. Also, if you feel my way of thinking is ignorant then so be it, again we differ on our opinions. But do tell me, were you loyal to your high school or college? To me pro is no different. Also, I look at sports as fun, for crying out loud my sister is a Giants fan and I refer to her as a fraud. All in fun, but I feel that way. We just disagree. She never saw a Giants game on TV growing up, but at least they are 100 miles away so it makes a little more sense than rooting for a team halfway across the country. It is always easy rooting for a winner. Your argument is poor regarding your friends harrasing you when the Eagles win. I mean you are rooting for a team a thousand miles away and a hated rival of that home team...what do you expect?

I lived in north Jersey for 4 years and took a beating from fans up there. However, unlike you I understood I was the minority. It is like that anywhere along the east coast. I accept you for feeling like you can root for whoever you want and yes no one is telling you that you can't. I, however, think you should support the teams in the area for which you are from much like we Americans do with our country. We just disagree on opinions, but to call me ignorant without knowing who I am as a person is ignorant on your behalf.

I am done posting on this thread. Even though the Eagles have never won a SB, at least we do not have to listen to all the fake Cowboys fans talk for now. I must end this thread by saying I think it is funny that after 1 game all you fans think the season is lost...that is pathetic. Some support you all give to your team. LOL
