A Special 'Thank You' to Grizz.


A special 'thank you' to Grizz.

Star-divide

I've been on the blog a few years, and certainly have seen some evidence of how awesome the staff is here.  However, I just wanted to say how great it is that we have a classy guy like Grizz at the forefront here at BTB. 

I just went to HogsHaven yesterday and read how their rep, KevinE, tried to turn what is essentially one of the coolest portions of the blog- unbiased assessments of our team's weekly matchups- into a joke.  He, and likely his fans, weren't interested in dissecting the matchup, but rather just wanted to throw some mud at the Cowboys.  It was very rude.

I would have taken the bait.  I'm not known for having a really long fuse.  But Grizz simply noted that the conversation was going in a direction he didn't expect or appreciate, and excused himself from it.

My hat off to Grizz, a classy guy, and one that I'm proud to have representing me as a Cowboys fan and a member of BTB.  Thanks, man.

Grizz took the high road and the skins fans blasted him in the comments. I guess I understand their frustration but I never thought of skins fans as so classless.
Then they go on to explain that we don’t view the rivalry as much on our side because we are all bandwagon fans.
I could really use a good old fashined azz whipping of the skins tomorrow to slam the door shut on their season and their fan’s mouths.

+ infinity ... cool :)

It must be tough being a skins fan, when even your most traditional rival considers you THIRD on their hate list. I grew up hating the skins, but it’s hard to get up for a game you’re always favored to win.

The Skins will be back when Clown Snyder disappears … until then, that entire franchise remains little more than a whipping post.

also the BUCS almost beat them. Yeah we struggled against KC but it was an away game for us. Skins lost to them at home

in that decision. Very classy, c’mon none of us are children and thus we shall not act like it

People that has no class, at all, can’t indentify class when it’s sitting in front of them.

I’ll use a signature of a fellow blogger (can’t remember who):

Never wrestle with a pig… You’ll both get dirty, and the pig will love it.

And those guys are Hogs! Fits perfectly!

Viva México! Go Cowboys!

That sig belongs to BTB's very own "Dunkman" -- aka DUNK!

I agree, Chandus. That does fit perfectly when it comes to the classless Skins’ fans — LOL!!!

Is playing smart too much to ask?
