Now wonder we have guys like T-Will and Barry Church starting. Now wonder we waste picks on guys like Escobar and Swaim. Now wonder we give guys like Carr and Crawford huge deals, but let guys like Demarco, Harris, and Durant leave. With JJ's talent evaluation skills I'm surprised we've won two games.

Okay, so I have to understand something here.

For about a year now, I've been about how great this team's evaluation of talent has been. Now all of a sudden, it's awful. When we were succeeding, McClay was being praised. We're losing, now Jones and back to being the one drafting these guys.

Which is it, the board is all over the place on this one.

And I'm sure we'll get a 5 paragraph thread about it from you. I look forward to it.

Nah I'd be ecstatic that means we'd get mr. Stone hands off the team or out of the #2 role. Gregory is a moron for smoking on the day of the combine, but hey if he didn't we wouldn't have gotten him so I'm glad he did.

I don't know if I've ever mentioned McClay in my life. My comment completely based on JJ and his man crush on Johnny Football, even after we see how big of mess he is.

There is no way Escobar is as bad as he's been playing here. Martellus Bennett was pretty much only a blocking tight end. He goes elsewhere and he's one of the best tight ends in the game. Here, Dwayne Harris is only a return man. In New York, he's scoring touch downs. A lack of talent isn't the problem. The talent here needs to be utilized better.

Five or six more years with all the injuries Tony has taken? Wow Jerry, you have out done yourself here.

Well, if the crowds start dropping into the 30,000-40,000 range and season ticket sales drop 40%...

you might see a different tune from Jerrah.

Not before.

When he can pull in 90,000 paid seats on a 2-6 team..

he's not going to change.

Last time he hired Parcells to be the distraction while he built his stadium and take the focus off of losing.

He 'd look to do that again.

Not hire Parcells but to hire a big name coach to replace Garrett.

Jason needs to watch his back after this off-season.

And he'll get 90,000 paid seats even if they're not Cowboy fans in them.

Romo might play another four years or so.

10 games here, 12 there, 8 here. Like Aikman ended up doing when he started breaking down.

It might rival the divorces caused by Terrell Owens around here. I cannot wait.

Jerrah wants bargains if it comes to Romo's replacement.

Becuz he plans on keeping Romo..

he will look for another low risk/hi reward choice like RGIII or Manzel if he becomes available.

Or draft somebody in the 4th Rd that won't consume too much salary cap.

He is ever the wild-cat driller.

no kidding, not sure how I missed that

Don't feel bad. I missed it too. After years in the newspaper business and now an ex-newspaper reporter, I'm kind of tired of the constant barrage of news. I used to watch CNN, MSNBC, Nightline, FOX News, the O'Reilly Factor, etc. I'm taking a nice break from it all.

Delusional was the previous 15 years.

He's a straight up lunatic.

Don't make eye contact lunatic.

I never know when Jerrah is being serious or just saying something politically correct or what.

I realize Romo hears all the criticism and that just adds more pressure for him and that not right.

He has had a tough career and the future looks rougher yet.

So it may well be that they will play it out as it is.

I do think Cassel is a much better backup than Weeden. So at least that phase of the QB equation is being improved.

Griffin played baseball.

Well, I’m a fan of RGIII. Right on this field two years ago, or maybe it was three seasons ago, he put on a show and had a game that just floored me. And they won, and they won in large part because of his play at quarterback. I thought ‘my goodness, and we’re going to have to be playing this guy for years and years.’ And so he’s got it.
“Once you see a player do it, especially if you see him do it two or three times, you know he can do it. And of course he’s a driven young man. I’m a big admirer of RGIII.”

I better stop as I am scaring myself.
