I can understand the hate for the Cowboys - I think most of it stems from that string of games a few years ago where somehow the Packers repeatedly seemed to have to play them at there place. Aside from short term allegiances - who needs to win or lose to help the Packers right now, my most consistent favoritism is NFC over AFC - going back to the AFL days. There was genuine HATE back then, and with good reason. The frosting on the cake of Super Bowl I was when Vince came on national TV and dissed the AFL saying something to the effect that most of the NFL teams woulda beat the Chiefs.
What I see from this Cowboys team is similar to when they emerged as contenders in the early 90s - a lot of sharply procured players coming out of nowhere in some cases, wisely drafted in others, etc. I WISH the Packers could put together an O Line as well and as quickly as Jerry did. I WISH we could dig up some ILBs like the Cowboys have - even with their best D player out injured. As for Romo, a good Wisconsin boy from about 20 miles from my hometown, yeah, he has a history of inconsistency; I've called him a "Favre-wannabe" myself in the past, but as beat up as his old body is, he still has that escapability and a flair to make big plays. Obviously, he ain't Aaron Rodgers, but IMO, he's better than what about 25 - 27 other teams start at QB.
It's always traumatic for me when my two favorite teams play each other. I could see than happening in the NFC semis or finals this season.
