Is Witten a strategic decision by Jerry or a publicity stunt?

-----Witten, in the booth, was "must watch TV" You never knew what he was gonna say or do next, he was an under-appreciated comedic genius

You mean like the ability of player to pull a rabbit out of his head.
Loved that.
I mean... c'mon! It was amusing! So much now is just stuff we want to mute because they are grating, or boring.
He was neither.
To me...

I enjoyed his work.
He was becoming a modern day Yogi Berra, but more country.
I did too, unfortunately, people couldn't appreciate his unique ability. He was kinda mix of Yogi and Harry Caray. Harry was great and he couldn't pronounce guy's names either, he'd call a ball low and outside when it would almost hit a batter in the head, but no one cared because he was very entertaining. Of course, I don't think Witt was enjoying an ice cold Bud while he was announcing games either. :p

He looks a ton better without that animal tranq'd on his head.

Oh the times, they are a-changin'...

I would totally watch if someone gave him another chance and told him: you just keep being you, full-force buddy.

Witten will be a solid addition. I wouldn’t put him on the field 3rd and long though.

So you wear a rug too and is sensitive about it...
Good to know!

I also compliment the hell out of him, moving forward, but I should encase my head in casing-liner-proof material.
I'll make sure it's breathable.

Or Witten helps Dak and the offense, because now they have to respect him and game plan for him. Even though he was not as hw was 3 years ago. He still is good enough to demand respect. Dallas just needs to figure out how to use him effective enough without being a progress stopper as well.
I think they will.
And it will open up the offense more.

It's 5 O'clock somewhere.

Yeah... He's like the newer, PC'er Harry Caray.
He just didn't get time to let the pub ruminate upon how awesome he truly was and he's kind of what we need sometimes, if you're willing to enjoy what he brings...
