Life is too short to be listening to your BS on a website where I just want to think about my favorite football team. I'll avoid bothering you if you'll do the same for me. I think that's fair. For what it's worth, I don't think I've ever even seen an airboat.
I knew a guy named Joe King a long time ago. I thought it might be you.

I hate airboats. They’re loud and obnoxious and screw up my fishing. Never get behind one at the boat ramp.

I asked you to avoid me. Please respect that. I'll do the same.
Shut the F(reak) up. You don't get respect by posting moronic stuff on a message board.

If you want someone to avoid you then quit following them around and replying to their posts.

You should get a clue and realize that everyone here even the trolls know more about everything than you do.

How do you go through life and not understand who you are?

It's OK because everyone has the right to live their life but the hospital janitor shouldn't go around debating medical procedures with the Doctors. If he tries then they with laugh at him then get irritated with him.

Some people run 4.2 forties and some can't break 6.0 in the forty.

Some people have low IQs and some have high IQs.

Just realize that you're Rich Eisen and don't challenge Deion Sanders to a footrace.

Put me on ignore if that's not too complicated for you.

I don't know why I bothered to post this. I'm certain you won't understand any of it but maybe all the other people that you've annoyed will find it refreshing.

That’s just speculation. Just because you say it doesn’t make it so.
Try to grow up.

You could be a good poster if you quit coming across with the maturity of a 1st grader.

To adults your response sounds like this:

Why do always resort to personal attacks? And you’re telling me to grow up?

If you top off in Rockport at the Exon station at the turn onto 35 North...go inside and get a slice platter of brisket and cheeses.

Garrett can't seem to handle any mental make-up issue type players.

Jimmy got to Super Bowls by handing Charles Haley.

Taco
  • Taco failed because he was or became uncoachable.
  • He did NOT fail due to a lack of physical ability.
  • Dorance Armstrong does not have more physical ability than Taco.
Was it the Pick of Taco that Failed or did Garrett fail to make Taco accountable?

Has Garrett handled any character issues players?
- They kept Dez happy by force feeding him the ball.
- Zeke has only been in limited trouble.


Garrett as Head Coach:
Taco
Greg Hardy
Josh Brent
David Irving
Dez (eventually)
Rolando McClain
Jay Ratliff
Ahmad Dixon
Joseph Randle
Rico

Others that had issues:
Beasley - Complained on twitter while he was here.
Ryan Switzer - Openly complained to the media.
T.Williams - The 2018 move to IR seemed to be more of a flake out and an long term injury.
Kyle Orton - Faked injury or illness to get cut (I forget the details).

Garrett as the OC, not HC:
TO
Patrick Crayton
MartyB

I think Garrett handles the players very well . They like him and will play hard for him . He did a great job of keeping the team together after Josh Brent had the accident

Also last year he did an excellent job of keeping the team motivated and believing after that rough start . They could have easily tanked but took off on a streak and even won a playoff game .

As for the above mentioned problem players . SOME MEN YOU JUST CANT REACH !!! So Im not holding that against him , he has been stuck trying fix some of Jerrys gambles

I mean what is he supposed to do with guys drinking cough medicine , driving drunk , Stealing underwear and cologne, guys who make smoking Dope the #1 priority in their life , beating there spouse or ones that just hate Jerry . Heck I think they basicly appointed a guardian to Dez after he smacked his Mama .

He isnt getting paid to be a shrink just coach football and I feel he is handling the players very well under the circumstances .

Bottom line is the COWBOYS as an Organization have given all these guys every resource and opportunity to GET THE HELP THEY NEED for there specific problems . They chose not to follow through and most are out of football . Garrett cant save every puppy in the pound so he has to move on and concentrate on coaching the team

I'm not a pro-Garrett fan but I can't really fault him here. It happens. You fill a room with people and there is bound to be a bad apple or two. Just the way it is. I have watched immensely talented individuals flame out all over the league in my time as an NFL fan. Some players hold a real passion for playing on the field, and that transcends to us fans, and others just simply do not. So they fade away.

Taco became uncoachable because his ego was bigger then his ability. He blamed the team for his lack of success instead of his own effort.

[QUOTE="Hennessy_King, pos

Talking about a clown, this definitely makes you look like Homie.. Lol

He was in Elementary school when his father coach with the Saints, he coached there for 1 damn year...lol he coach 3 years with the Giants, Garrett was 7 years old...lol he played at Princeton, his dad was there, he coached under Nick Saban as qb coach his dad wasn't there, he coached at Princeton his dad wasn't there. Was a qb in the world league and Canadian league, his dad wasn't there either...you have got to be the dumbest, the only place you can remotely say he got influence from his father was at Columbia and the Cowboys and yet he still had to put the work in. Clown

Read up. Thats a lot of privilege and silver spoon that maybe 1% of his players can relate to. Also no swag wears tightie whities and only has sex missionary style. Im sure you can relate

I think the big problem is the organization giving problem players chance after chance. Tom Landry had problem players as well but often the problem player was sent packing. I would also add these are grown men making big money and HC or any person can only do so much to change a person behavior.

I don't like garrett and think he sucks as a coach but with taco the only thing wrong with taco was that he was over drafted should of been a third or fourth round pick and not all of that falls on garrett

Each of those mentioned are different cases and really totally different cases. In Taco, and no Armstrong no better physically, it was his effort in practice and game time, sometimes it was there sometimes it wasn't and you never knew when it was one way or another. Is he talented, sure, but how many 1st round picks fail and fail every year. If interested, just google it, going to be close to half never live up to there talent.

Greg Hardy - mental problems that he is still dealing with
Josh Brent - never grew up until after a horrendous accident
Dez - classic head case and very much a ME guy, last time I looked football is about team, and whether one wants to believe or not talent was failing or 31 other teams would have rushed to pick him up
Rolando McClain - the man is one step away from a drug suspension and a mental hospital
Jay Ratliff - always liked him but his time was up as far as other better than him
Ahmad Dixon - who would you give up for him
Joseph Randle - do drugs mean nothing to you
Rico - he couldn't even stick with the Browns, bad example

You want your team with talent but you also want the players on the team to want to be around those talented people and with head cases that just does not happen. And it doesn't matter who the head coach is. Frankly with Dez, it was Jerry they had to convince to let him go if you go back and read a little between the lines not anyone but Jerry wanted to keep him.

Will Garrett be the HC next year is anyone's guess but as to who it might be is well probably not anyone currently coaching in the NFL this year, yes, not even Kellen Moore although one day soon he will be a HC.
