I watched Redskin Nation this evening and there was a stat that the Cowboys are 4-11 in cold (below 40 degrees?) outdoor football games.

Plus, 2-10 in last 12 years in week 17.

Case in point. I registered to talk some football in the biggest game of both team's seasons. My Username was RGThreesus. I see a thread titled "What Color Will We Wear Sunday"

LOL

These fools are talking about which jersey colors they like.

Cowgirl Fan #1 "I hope we wear white!"

Cowgirl Fan #2 "Yay, me too! Love those jerseys."

I answer the question and say "Romo will be wearing Burgundy & Gold with Kerrigan & Jackson all over him all night. And, your team will wear a sad face home."

Their admin banned me.

How weak is that?? But I'm not surprised. True Story.

HAIL

I joined. Username is III.

They had a thread about earliest/favorite Cowboy memory.

I posted about the Ice Bowl (first game I ever saw). Mentioned hating Cowboys immediately.

My post was deleted by mods.

Talk about weak.

They really are ghey. But, then again, are we surprised? At first I was like really? Then I was like--figures.

Over here, we are secure enough to mix it up with fans bold enough to come here and talk trash. That's what men do. Apparently, they don't get that whole competitive concept.

In light of what I've seen elsewhere THN is the bomb. If some Cowgirl fan posted about Clint Longley over here we'd simply have at it. Pretty sad.

Speaking from an old school perspective, having attended all of those great games at RFK during the glory years, and especially the Cowboys games ... we had great success in those big games ... but since then, for the past 20 years, not so much. And the biggest factor in this long struggle, I believe, has been the instability at QB.

Patriots=Brady .... Saints=Brees ... Colts=Manning ... Cards=Warner ... Rams=Warner ... Giants=Manning ... Eagles=McNabb ... the list goes on and on.

Add to that list, Redskins=Griffin III .... he's the catalyst that's been missing, and as remarkable as his on-field play has been this year, it is the confidence he inspires in the rest of the team that has turned this 3-6 team into a 9-6 team, and one game away from the NFC East Championship. This kid is a big game player ... he excels in the big game .. he inspires ... he leads ... and everyone else's play is elevated by that confidence he exudes.

Normally, I'd be worried about this game ... but I find a quiet confidence that head to head, RG3 vs Romo ... RG3 wins ... hands down. Romo is a fine QB, and can play lights out when he's on ... but the big game is not something he's nearly as comfortable with as our rookie, and that has to worry the entire division at the prospect of having to deal with this kid for the next dozen years .... big game QBs win the big games, and RG3 is a big game player ...

Without a healthy Demarcus Ware causing havoc in the backfield, and backup nose tackle, Morris runs for 100+, RG3 moves the chains and puts the points on the board .... Redskins win by 13 ... 30-17 !!!

+1. I like your quiet confidence, sir.

Man, I gotta start lining up my afternoon football viewing. Are the Bears and/or Vikes going to be on for us tomorrow?

I'm REALLY hoping both those teams lose so I won't be so stressed during the Cowboys game.

On the flip side, I'd kind of hate for both of those teams to lose, we beat the Cowboys and the freaking Giants slip into the playoffs.

I will be stressed out REGARDLESS.

But think ahead:

Do you really want the team to travel to another stadium next week?

or Would you rather have home field advantage against Seattle or Vikes/Bears?

We should take care of business REGARDLESS of any other games. The NFC East title, playoffs, home field advantage and PRIDE is at stake.

Most important thing about that quiet confidence? It has led to the above post from RayNAustin.

RAYNAUSTIN!?!?!?!?!?!?!

That's it. Now I'm confident of the win.

For the first time in years i am not stressed, this is going to be business as usual for G3 and the boys - the cowpies have got to win, thier fans stressed adnausium but they just ain't good enough.
Our guys know it, they will win and there just ain't nothing the cowpies can do about it. G3 and the boys have confidance, they believe in themselves and they know they are the better team.
I see low scoring, lots of Mr Morris and G3 directed TD drives when they want one but it'll be ball control and ball possession.
I see something like 17-3, whatever but i see a 2 touchdown differential.

Cowboyszone mods:

Hmmmm... In my opinion, when you call something a "discussion board"... ummm... you should probably be able to actually "discuss". Weak.

On the other hand, it pretty much matches up with the realities of Cowpukes County.

You know... you just can't fix stupid.
