No, he's your typical Dallas fan. I could tell stories for days about the absurdity of living among them, you seem pretty intelligent and even-tempered, I'd say you're not the typical Dallas fan. And I mean that as a compliment. And yes, he and many others truly believed they'd beat Green...

That just happened Saturday night so I haven't really had the opportunity to go back. I don't plan to boycott the restaurant or anything. It's a restaurant I don't go to a lot, maybe once or twice a year, but I enjoy it. And it's a college town, so wait staffs turn over on a monthly basis...

No, you don't have to. I didn't pay for the meal/tip, and it had already been paid for anyway as we were walking out when he said that.

I'm conflicted about Favre. He was my hero as a kid and one year my mom and dad took me to training camp, I think in '94, and I was face to face with him. He didn't ride a bike down to the practice field like the other players, he was driven down. And as he walked up I asked if he would sign...

I take some crap sometimes, but they're harmless idiots. When I was 13 my dad took me to the Thanksgiving Day game in '94 at Texas Stadium when Jason Garrett played against us and won, some stupid redneck pelted me (a kid wearing a cheesehead and Favre throwback jersey) with a cup of beer and...

So glad the Packers won. I live in the Dallas area, I never would have heard the end of it, and Cowboys fans were already annoying after they won last week. They've been especially annoying since last year. In fact last night I was out to dinner with my brother, sister in law and parents and...

I was at the Thanksgiving '94 game at Texas Stadium where some red-headed third-string QB named Jason Garrett beat Favre and the Pack. So I know better than to get cocky about facing a Cowboys backup. The Cowboys, even at their worst, have a habit of hanging in there and never getting...

How about instead of thinking on the bright side you jump in your TARDIS and rewrite the outcome of the game? For me personally, I'm just glad they beat the Cowboys. As a Packer fan living in Dallas it could have really made my life hell. So I'm still very happy.

I agree there have been some great come from behind victories lately in the NFL and college (the Cotton Bowl comes to mind), but I don't think it's some larger issue plaguing the sport. This year some teams just got caught not getting it done, perhaps more than usual. Or not, I don't know...

I'm sorry, I didn't catch that. I was inexplicably distracted...

Do we know they're fans? Could be gamblers, people who were just rooting against Seattle, bandwagoners, etc. But even if they are fans (though I'd say they're not very good fans to begin with), it doesn't reflect on the entire fanbase as the title of your thread suggests. You shouldn't be...

This is a symptom of internet culture, not Packer or football culture.

They did play amazing for most of the game, but they looked pretty crappy at times, specifically near the end. Seattle got some big plays because it looked like our D was trying to play touch football. That or they were afraid of contact. But they're probably the biggest reason we ALMOST won...

I didn't expect them to get this far either (especially after Rodgers' injury), but really that just makes it all the more sickening that they blew it the way they did.

Thanks Swan
