Let's put aside the fact that this "logic" is chock full of unverifiable assumptions which pass as "logic."

The indisputable ground floor is that it requires rooting against the Skins. The fact that you are willing to leave this year's team for dead by actively rooting against them makes your argument cowardly.

Given that you root against the Skins just like a Cowboys fan does, I suggest you hang out on a Cowboys board where you can mingle with like-minded individuals.

Finally, I don't have to make you look like an idiot. You once again are doing a great job of that all by yourself.

I'd rather root for my team to lose one year, and root for them to win the rest of my life, than root for an inconsistent, broken, gives you hope but fails franchise year after year after year.

Also on the whole cowboys thing why would I go from one dysfunctional franchise to another..

I know I'm just focusing on one portion of your statement, but I just can't seem to wrap my mind around that. And I respect your desire for us to Suck for Luck, but as a fan, I can't stand seeing my team losing even if it does mean getting an all-star player next season. And as someone who used to play team sports, I can't just give up even if we were a bad team.

I just can't root for or respect a team of quitters.

This is true, respectable, and a much better answer than other people have been giving.

The whole root of my argument and bottom line, was basically "don't be mad skin fans when Andrew Lucks making Pro Bowl after Pro Bowl and appearing in Super Bowls, being like Oh we could have had him!" Ya we could have if we had sucked! We already suck enough to win 3 games, whats the difference between winning 3 games and 1? (Its a rhetorical question. Don't answer with 2)

Your statement is a false either/or. Those aren't the only two possible outcomes. That makes your statement irrational.

Further, rooting for your team to lose is cowardly.

So I'll end this conversation by saying that I get you now. You not only argue for irrational and cowardly things, you will insist on doing so.
