TRUE DALLAS COWBOYS FANS

Last night the Dallas Cowboys lost to the Philadelphia Eagles 30 to 27. A valiant effort by the Pokes.

A true Dallas Cowboys fan lives and dies, wins and loses with his team. A loyal fanatic does not go hitchhiking down that NFL Highway hoping to catch a ride on the next Great Bandwagon. No Sir. No way. No How. A true and loyal fan sticks to his guns with his squad. Through thick and thin.

I became a fan of the Pokes back in the 2nd grade. I had the Dallas Cowboys notebook. I kept both sides nice and clean. Sure, it had the protective plastic cover. This did not stop me from wiping off the dust. I after all grew up in the country. Dust and dirt were tag team partners that wrestled with windshields and windowns. With kids' faces and dreams.

I grew up rooting for Dallas as Roger Staubach lead them. Plenty of victories and plenty of defeats. The next morning in school I kept a stiff upper lip as the juvenile Cowboy haters hissed in delight of their defeat. The Houston Oiler fans loved to tease as well. Love ya Blue too.

I lived through all the tough years in the desert after Roger The Dodger retired. Always faithful.

We watched as some fans tossed the Dallas jerseys in favor of the flavor of the gridiron day. Green Bay first and on it went. NOT A TRUE DALLAS COWBOYS FAN.

For me the season never really ends. I wear my Dallas Cowboys cap every day!

So yes, the Cowboys lost to their hated divisional rivals from Philly last night.

YOU won't see me out by the roadside trying to hitch a ride on another team's bandwagon. It just is not going to happen.

WE live and die...we lose or win with our team.

GO COWBOYS!
