The Cowboys are a traditionally winning football team!
The Dallas Cowboys have a record of 550-408-6 all-time.
I've seen some better and I've seen some worse!
I am a golfer, but I never watched the Ryder cup in my youth.
The Ryder Cup was first televised in 1983. I was in my 40's at that time.

There's no denying the team's great history. We're talking about the past 25 years or so. They are tied for the fifth least playoff wins and have the fifth longest drought of reaching a conference championship game. Claiming that puts them in the top ten or so of teams in recent times doesn't match with the results.
now it makes sense. you are a 49ers fan.
so you want playoff wins to matter because your club has even a longer history of not being the best team in the NFL
listing playoff wins and conference championship appearances is what gave it away

Could I interest you in becoming a Chief’s fan? Patrick Mahommes is a really nice guy!
Mahomes is America's Quarterback!
No bout adout that!
We all love that guy!
And wasn't his Red Raider days fun too?

Lighten up a bit, Geeko.
Just having a bit of fun...almost always at the expense of the Eagles or Boys.
I enjoy all football games...and I do not actually hate any team. The Eagles and Boys suck, but not enough to actually hate them for it.
I hate the Eagles and think the Eagles fans are generally trash.
I find the Giants ownership to be pathetic. the owners are pussies to the nth degree. They always tried to act like the class of the nfl, but they remind me of the rich dudes in Trading Places

I know that most teams get really hard up just to play the Cowboys.
What I am proud of are all the Tom Landry designed plays that are now standards on every offense out there today.
I can remember a day, when all NFL teams built their teams to beat Dallas!
That is a measure of success right there!

I am a 49ers fan but my position here isn't driven by that. I absolutely hate the New England Patriots for instance but there's no denying their greatness over the past 20 or so years. Saying playoff performance and Super Bowls is how we judge teams isn't some biased position. I'm not saying anything many Cowboys fans don't say themselves. My in-laws live in the Dallas area and are all Cowboys fans. I hear them speak and read the Dallas paper when I visit. I see the complaining about the team and how young fans have a very different view of the team than older fans who have at least experienced success.
You're honestly the first Cowboys fan I've heard argue they are a top ten team over the past 25 years.
oh,. it most definitely is
the big tell is when you want credit for a playoff win and a superbowl loss. you are cherry picking things to not make your team also be on the outside looking in - when they have also been in on a huge drought

I used to be a hater. NO really! I hated the other teams in our division.
One day I just snapped after a loss, and realized- I didn't hate them at all- I envied them.
Now, I pull for all of them in every game except when they play the Cowboys.
I love this tough division we play in. We basically build out teams to defeat the teams in our own division.
I think even the Washington Whatevers will be back soon.
And do not give up on Daniel Jones my friend- He looks like your future- but get him some offensive line help and some throw to weapons OK?

We only need to improve our offensive line in five spots!
Either that, or Jones learns to do what Eli did...fall to the ground when the defense surges over the OL. Eli realized he had to save himself...and did a great job at that.
Actually, the OL has improved in the last two years, but they are far from one of the better lines. I'm figuring the GIANTS are going to draft with the OL in mind.
It did feel great being the big conference last year.

I'm not cherry picking anything. Success in the NFL is ultimately judged by Super Bowl victories. After that you look at the performance in the playoffs. That's the same for all teams. It's really the same for all sports.
outside of super bowl victories - the stat that I find most impressive - and this was during the Landry era - was consecutive years qualifying for the playoffs.
you need an invite - that is most important.

We're talking about the last 25 years - so more recent time. I've never denied the greatness of Cowboys history. But that's not this discussion. Your argument that in the past 25 years the Cowboys are a top ten team is not back by any data. And I've read the Dallas papers speaking about the Cowboys. Those writers take a very different perspective than you.
I think it would be beyond silly to use playoff wins as the barometer
Team A goes 9-8. gets a wildcard playoff game and wins - loses the second game
Team B goes 14-3. Gets a bye. wins a playoff game and loses the second game.
Team B clearly had more success and is the better team, but playoff wins say they are equal

Yeah right,...your post wasnt political at all....
Just how is the subject of NFL players and some of them not participating in the anthem political?
