Personally, I don't watch much pro sports, I think they are overpaid entertainers but, to each their own.
What I don't get is why anyone would look forward to another losing season............

I used to love sports but got tired of politics entering into them. They can all have their opinions and I have no problem with that but I cannot use my job to express mine so why should I pay them to do so. Just play the game and leave the politics out and I would probably return but have not watched in several years and found other productive stuff to do with my time.

Jerry Jones will not be requiring proof of vaccination to attend in person Cowboy games at Cowboys Stadium.

...evidently there's no chance of anyone catching anything there.

I'm with ya "Meat". I have always been a big baseball fan and to a lessor extent pro football(I tend to like the college games better). I don't worry about how much the performers get paid either. If the owners want to pay them the big bucks and there are enough folks willing to pay the price of admission, so be it. I don't care. Every once in a while I will venture into Chi-town for a Cubs' game. I've never been affected by an athlete's politics either. Who listens to that blather anyway?

My company works for the Cowboys at every home game and the Jones' are really great folks to work for.  They provide meals (good stuff) for every employee (even us contract performers), early games get a solid breakfast and the Thanksgiving game is turkey and dressing. They hold a dinner meeting before each season to thank those working for them for being part of the production team and also hold a get together after the season with fun activities and again, dinner to thank everyone for the past season. We are treated with respect.

While football is a sport, it's a show produced for the fans at the stadium to make sure they have a good time, no matter the score.

With that, I am hopeful that the silver and blue gives a good showing tonight against the GOAT and the Super Bowl champions.

I grew up in pro sports.  My Grandfather was a friend of George Hallas.  I worked in the Bears training camp in my hometown two summers. I have clients with the Bears, Jets, Dolphins and Redskins. (all coaching staff and admin)

I am so tired of the political bullshit in pro sports I won't watch a single down any more.
They can do anything they want, just not with my money and support.

just do not listen to the BS and enjoy the game for what it is. 

that pic would be better if no. 12 was in middle of that cowboys hug.  Brady has way too much time in the pocket 1st half the Cowboys have had ZERO pass rush at all.   Give any QB enough time they will find an open receiver eventually.

cowboys should have won by at least 1 TD loosing by 2 points to Brady's comeback as usual last 1 1/2 minutes of the game to kick a chip shot field goal.    NEVER give Brady the ball with over 1 minute to go in the game if needing ONLY a field goal to win it.    Cowboys had NO pass rush all night long Brady just sat back there and easy toss and catch most of the game.   Dak had more pressure on him all night long but IMO Cowboys played a better overall game but still lost to ex-Patsie Brady and Gronk.

Why would you be curious ?  coolsmiley

Was looking at the forum page, saw this thread again and thought I'd ask.
Why would you question such a query and not just state who won?   Don't worry about it, if I really cared I could google it or something.   Thought it was appropriate to ask here since the topic was started.   Never mind.............   Roll Eyes

Why would I question your curiosity ? Oh, I don’t know. Maybe I didn’t judge it as sincere.  Roll Eyes

Call it like you see it, really doesn't matter to me who won.
