i guess i need to hear your definition of bandwagon, because to me it means just choosing whichever team happens to be the best at a particular period of time. So when I was young that would have been the 49ers, Bears, Giants, and Bills. The Cowboys got worse when I started rooting for them (which was when I was 3), which would show that your argument has more holes than swiss cheese.
so rooting for the team when they were 1-15, and 3-13 while the Giants were winning the Super Bowl, and the Bills were starting their run means nothing? Huh...your logic mirrors that of George W. Bush, good luck with that.
no..you started rooting for a team when they were good and just stayed with them cause they were "america's team" kinda cheesy my man...and George W can't hold a cndle to my logic pal

doesnt matter. what you are doing in rooting for the cowboys and not being from texas, is lakin to being a us citizen in the 1940's and rooting for nazi germany to win ww2. you're not a nazi, now, are you ryan?

don't even bother dude you are wasting your breath
and with a Cowboys loss, enter all the Egirl fans.....we didn't here a fucking peep the last 3 weeks....it was nice.
If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

Well as a bandwagon fan of The Pittsburg Steelers since their first SB appearance in the 70's and one who NEVER jumped off even in the lean years, I take offense to your statement Sir. I live in Columbus , Ohio and given the choice of NFL teams from my state I of course chose a winner.The Pittsburg Steelers.

being from ny and being a cowboys fan for as long as you have just makes you a guy who has been a fraud for a longer period of time. sorry. i dont make the rules. it also wouldnt count if you are a cowboys fan because your dad was a fan....that just makes you a 2nd generation fraud! we got a lot of them here in philly.
nope my dad is a bills fan, he just let me choose my own team. according to academic studies the bandwagon effect is that to be a bandwagon fan is to root for the popular local team, b/c that's what everyone else is doing (most of my friends were Giants/Bills/Jets fans)...OR root for a team that has a lot of success during one's formative rooting years (went to the playoffs at best between 1983-1991) OR rooting for a team through prolonged failure (they sucked in 1987-1989 but had a history of winning). Of those three my choice to root for the Cowboys as a young kind between 1983-1989 living in NY fits none of the above. In fact you rooting for the Eagles is more bandwagon according to scientific studies than me rooting for the cowboys, because they haven't won shit and they are the popular local team. Try again.

well i'm sorry for you. but at least your not a cockroach!
well i'm sorry for you. but at least your not a cockroach!
Not sure what you mean by the cockroach statement but Since I've been a fan We/They got 5 yes count em 5 rings in 6 tries. Just how many SB wins can you shout about?

academics has nothing to do with this, son. you made a choice, at a very young age, to root for "america's team," the team that was always on national tv, a team that had just finished a decade in which they won 2 super bowls. you chose them over your hometown's team. shame on you. sham on you.
It'll be fun...and yes me too...I hope it doesnt come down to it
A friend of mine that I coached little league with is an Eagles fan....I mentioned we should get together for the final game and he said "not this year man...it's embarrassing".........wondering if he changed his tune:)

What are you talking about? I just demonstrated how you were, in fact, scientifically a bandwagon Eagles fan, and how I was clearly not. Again you are using W. logic and just disregarding all evidence and saying you are right. Just saying that you are right doesn't make it so. Try again.
because that is what they are. and i can assure he never followed the cowboys. that is jodi mac.
Oh you are so wrong....he was a follower of the Cowboys in the early 90's when they were winning. Now when he get's called on it, his excuse is he was a Jimmie Johnson fan b/c he coached at Miami. And I know Jodi Mac, and I am not confusing the two.
And that's fine, make up your nicknames....we call most Iggles fans maggots so it's all good.

eskin is a huge miami fan (which makes him a fraud in college football coincidentally) and i do remember him liking jimmy johnson. but he wasnt a fan of the team. i was a huge randall cunningfan growing up, i am actually wearing his jersey right now. i was still a fan of his when he was on the cowboys but it didnt mean i was a cowboys fan by any stretch of the imagination.

So you listened to WIP when you were 12???
Anyway, it's not worth goin back and forth over. You have your opinion and I have mine...it's all good.

Yes it will be...I heard Jeag's was selling his tickets, maybe he can hook you up....oh yeah, that was a few weeks ago, maybe he's going now.

i bet they flex it to an 8 o'clocker...
While I agree with ya, everyone knows Eskin likes to call fans of the team he used to follow "cockroaches".
because that is what they are. and i can assure he never followed the cowboys. that is jodi mac.
