6. The uniforms don’t even match

Have you ever noticed that the Cowboys have sliver pants that don’t match the color of the numbers on the jersey? The numbers are dark blue. Also, on the road, Dallas has these ultra-blue jerseys that they don’t like to wear (the Cowboys are almost always in white). What gives? When they made the current jerseys, were they done up in the dark by some blind guy?

Americans are about looking good. Hell, some people coordinate everything from their sneakers to their watch. It’s all about putting forth a quality appearance to make sure people respect you. The Cowboys look like their moms dressed them and didn’t have the right pants out of the wash yet. Come on, Dallas. You are better than this, we hope.

5. Texas doesn’t even want to be part of America

There are always these rogue reports about how Texas wants to become its own country. Frankly, most of the United States would be fine with that if it wasn’t for the great city of Austin and the loss of some terrific football players. Texas has this immense amount of local pride that makes absolutely no sense to most other Americans.

For that reason alone, no team playing in Texas can be considered America’s Team. Shouldn’t that distinction go to a team that plays in a state which loves America? I mean, look at this website. Look at it! This is how Texas feels about the United States. Get outta’ here, and take the Cowboys with you.
