Jerry Jones: I'll stir things up before fans grow apathetic
09:37 AM ET 11.03 | Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones has his decisions questioned publicly probably more than any other owner or GM in the NFL. But Cowboys fans probably wonder who is questioning Jones to his face. Unlike other general managers, Jones answers to himself. Jones doesn't want the Cowboys fan base to think that he's not trying because that could cause them to become one of his worst fears -- disinterested. "As to being criticized, I'm not going to say that I'm used to it, but there have been criticisms since the day that I got involved with the Cowboys," Jones said. "Serious criticism, but that's part of the interest. That's part of having people involved. What you don't want is apathy. And we're not going to have apathy. I promise you that. I'll stir something up before we have apathy. I say that tongue-in-cheek.

Guess maybe those TV ratings do have a little power. Now all we need is some sponsors and alot of season ticket holders to spend their money else where.

Jerry, I'm interested in championships. I'm not interested in the team just being interesting.
Restore the trenches, restore the rings.

The Cowboys used to be the top draw because they were winning. Now we have a soap opera and a situation more akin to the series Dynasty where no one knows what Jerry (a.k.a. JR) will do next. Stay tuned. He's a joke........ |

Jerry most your fans are already apathetic. Yet we continue to run out guys like Olgtree instead of giving other guys chances.
To be fair I see this far to often in the NFL the teams keep losing but refuse to put young guys in because the vet may know more or still gives us the best chance to win mantra. Big Bill did it with Viny and some other guys and i seen other coaches do things like that.

Exactly! Jones is a salesmen first and foremost. He "stirs up interest" when the team is not well thought of by the big trade (Galloway, Roy Williams) or the big signing T.O. This keeps the lemming fans "interested" I think this is fading as the fans are starting to understand this shell game he is playing. Mediocrity is the common denominator in Dallas and has been for the last decade or more. Until the fans start voting with their wallets Jerruh won't change. I said this a couple of years ago and I think it is more evident today. Jerry gets cheap coaches that won't stand up to him. He signs flashy players and goes cheap on the big uglies on both sides of the ball. He goes cheap at kicker and special teams. His drafting, trades and cap management are terrible. The product on the field is embarassing at times. Don't buy these overpriced seats until the team is professionally ran. Not ran like an oil guy playing fantasy football. Jerry will then get the hint that the fans know which shell is hiding the pea. |

I think when you talk to other people that really play the quarterback position, there's a few guys that really have incredible greatness in them, and Tony is one of them. I think the issue here is he needs more help from his teammates. I think they are not nearly as talented as people say they are, from 1 to 53. I'm talking about the total roster.” |

Not too much he can do other than a trade & Stephen says none this year.
I doubt Jason is going anywhere although a coaching change would "stir things up." |
