I mean. You keep saying the haters are going to pop in.

If you are ok with this statement, and his actions on first take last week (rubbing his hands together regarding the fans making the money gesture) then you my friend are part of the problem. Admitting the guy is a malignant narcissist who doesn't care about the fans or winning isn't being a hater. Its what he has proven time and time again. With statements like this lol

What he did was cringe worthy, and I stated as much.
All I said today was what he said PERTAINING to today, is he is correct. Keep people talking about you.
Who did I call a hater...I asked if the haters are logical. Which in this case is true, he makes a correct statement as a business person, but this draws the ire of the fans.

Yeah, I'm talking about you Jerry, but you would not want to hear what I have to say.

NO thats our Owner and i hate to break it to you but the owners of any and all business' have job#1 is profit, you can't own a team and not fill the seats and selling the team is how you do that, ironic that as bad as fans around here want to make out our last few decades we will year in and year out have the most primetime slots and still get highest ratings of many games on at the sometime even not football games. they are and have always been a big draw, jerry didn't name them Americas Team but his 3 SBs in 4 years continued that tradition. like it or not Jerrys doing his job, keep the team relative to fill stadiums is not a knock its his JOB. you all act lie its bad thing. its not.

think about this, main reason hes was able to purchase this team because the old regime was struggling with finances wasnt playing as well either etc guess what Jerrys not and never will be..

his GM role is sperate yet some if you don't get that the Cowboys are Like Apple and Apple CEOs /owners #1 job is what? Sell your product, make it as popular as possible, so when next model comes out people, line up to buy it.

this is necessary, jeez, get over it,

marketing is the #1 priority for all successful businesses, if you're not growing, you are dyeing!


The way Jerry markets this team is the same way a used car salesman tries to market a lemon on the lot. A winning team, like a quality car, does not need marketing as it sells itself. The problem is Jerry realizes he has to market the Cowboys because they have not been a winner in over a quarter of a century.

Here's the thing... everyone LOVES Jerry the owner. Not one person can deny his business acumen. And what you've stated about the owner's primary function is 100% correct. This is why, however, most don't prefer the owner and the GM to be the same individual. It presents a bit of a conflict of interests.

Most real GM’s do. Therein lies the problem.

No, I don't think they are. They do need to sleep. :muttley:

Jerry pays Will McClay for that.
Jerry has the GM title for his ego. He is not evaluating players.
I know that rubs many the wrong way. But it has been that way since day 1 when he bought the team. I guess it does not bother me like it does some.
We know he pays Will McClay well, to be that guy. And Will wants to stay and he is happy to keep it this way. He does not have a big ego.

This is where MM and his staff need to be great mechanics, and turn the lemons into lemonade. Take a junk car and win the Indy 500. :thumbup:

Not even Sam Maloof himself could fix what is under the Cowboys front office hood. Sorry but putting a great detailing shine on a turd....it's still a turd.....and that is what this organization has been for the past 25+ years.

You know what else gets people talking about you?

WINNING CHAMPIONSHIPS.

Imagine the amount of press and facetime with cameras ol Jerry would get if he hired a GM and the Cowboys started winning championships again?

Are not that is what they are trying to do? Win.

Hey, I wish Jerry would just be quiet. And you know he will not give up that title. And what make everyone so sure if he names Will McClay the GM that things would not change?
It is just hope things would change is what it comes down to. I mean, I agree, I wish he would do that. I truly do.

I also know it will not happen. I just choose not to let it be consistently be on my mind.

Exactly. You don’t have a problem with it while plenty of others do.

We know he pays Will McClay well, to be that guy. And Will wants to stay and he is happy to keep it this way. He does not have a big ego.

And while Will handles the scouting stuff, Jerry ultimately decides what to do with that information. And his always-rosy outlook of his team is often detrimental to the process.

the morons will always go to the folder they keep the stale overused narratives they saved to copy and paste it on almost every thread. Same tired played out nonsense.

The same could be said about you, it figures. Defending and justifying Jerry as GM, no one is talking about ownership. Everyone knows he uses that position only to try to get credit if the Cowboys ever won anything. . Anyone who defends Jerry as a GM is just as moronic as you say everyone else is. That crap and same nonsense also gets old after a while and you are not at all hard to figure out. And to think Jerry got you doing this for free.

Yeah, but what IS consistently on your mind is fear of what others are going to say about a topic if it could be critical of the organization. Was I not right when I said you are uber-sensitive? You didn't even start this thread to be worried about what someone else was going to say but hopped in already in defensive mode.
