OK, this is going to be a bit of a long story.

I grew up a Redskins fan almost 30 years ago because John Riggins was the man. Still is.

I had Joe Theisman as my QB, who I now absolutely hate.

I also hate the ownership. I would like to personally punch Snyder in the face.

I think Shanny is a good coach and I think they can work it out, but I think the reward I get for pulling for them is worth the pain.

I have been living in DFW, TX for 5 years now. I have been the ultimate anti-fan. Now a few things are happening.

I like Jason Garret. I think they are going to keep him as a coach.

I like Jason Witten. He is indeed the man.

My five (almost six) year old son has informed me he is a Cowboy fan. The scene was akin to an afterschool special.

He is really enjoying playing flag football this fall and I would like to have this Father-Son bond we could have by going to Cowboys games together.

I feel as if I am Hulk Hogan starting the NWO.

Feels weird.

Guess who has been doing powerpoints with lists in them.

Wait what?

Redskins and Cowboys are eternal enemies.

That would be like me being a Colts or Jets fan.

Sounds like you are torn. There is no rule saying you can't root for both of the teams. Just keep it hush hush.
:cool:

Blood in, blood out punk. It's the NFL. By your son a cowboys cheerleader outfit and see if he gets the message.

In other news I am going to troll my wife IRL by proclaiming my AFC team to be the Chiefs.

I am going to pull strongly for them against the Colts. I am going to use as my reason the greatness of Eric Berry.

When she scoffs, I am going to throw Peyton in her face and call her a racist. This is going to be great.

Wife and family very happy in DFW. It is a nice place to live. Taking Powers to some games at Cowboys stadium as a fan would be fun.

IRL trolling is the best IMO

BTW, I blame your situation on Fulmer. He is obviously responsible for your son accepting mediocrity in a football team.

I would move to Huntsville or Greenville, SC which are both viable options for me, but my wife has a great job and is very happy right now.

Plus, we are very active in our church.

He was born in 2005. Not a great omen as a vol fan.

In better news, he is totally rocking the Manning TN jersey in flag football practice and throws a pretty spiral. Also catches with his hands instinctively.

Wise advice ITT.

I would also add that I am very happy in my job and house and I am currently working on getting my black belt in Kenpo. I really like my situation now.

You could just buy Barney Fife's karate book. It has some some sweet moves.
