20 Cowboys missed curfew Friday night

[Zordon]

Not following you here. The inability of over 1/3 of the players to follow a simple rule shows an incredible lack of respect for whoever is in charge, whether that be Jerry or Jason Garrett.

Hardly a scorched earth policy to be pointing that out,

let's be real the tone of this thread would be completely different if wade phillips were coaching and 20 players decided to ignore his rules.

I wish had someone we could trust.

Rap -- anti-Cowboys bias mediot
Jones --- clueless
Fish -- pro-Cowboys bias mediot

Could be something, might be nothing. But we'll never know because everyone of the sources reporting it have an agenda.

 

[Zordon]

It just shows the lack of discipline within the team and that starts with the lunatic who owns it.

It's not just about the talent but the environment around that talent. Jerry Jones is a coach killer.

what is our record since the "smell the roses" comment?

when you have that type of leadership at the top, why are we surprised this team has relaxed the last few weeks.

When the owner felt it was okay to don a headset and conduct an in-game interview with a headset on like it was a preseason exhibition, it started unraveling.

It'll come out this week. My best guess is it's a minor snafu or travel related and not a late night drunken party or anything like that.

But hey, 3 weeks ago we had people here saying they love what they are seeing in Dallas.

Smelling the perfume, people.

You mean when we were 6-1? Shocking, I know.

sorry pal but the underground rail network in london is second to none, covers an area bigger than most cities and trains run on average every 6-7 minutes. transportation issues are sn excuse

rail network or buses...anyway, to people who know the system it's a non issue. for those who don't, and especially "visitors" even more of an issue.

go try the NY subway system, bet you will be confused the 1st time you ever tried in.

But you see, there really wasn't any "rule". Or something like that.

I heard this is the first time grown men weren't home before midnight.

Quite frankly i'm appalled.

Exactly
If not for Garrett's influence 30 players would be missing curfew
No one can doubt the discipline and accountability that Garrett brings to this team

Good teams don't bother stopping to smell roses at 6-1. At least ones that have been there before and know what they are doing.

That Washington game was an inexcusable loss where it was starting to become evident the team cannot handle success and squash a team they should.

This is another test in that same vein.

I prefer to see it as 33 players made curfew Friday night.

Mickey just said that his sources say that the players were being "defiant" because the CBA says that they are not suppose to have curfews other than before games.


I thought it was funny that Drew Pearson said that it could be a distraction and then went on to talk about the times he missed curfew under Landry. He got caught as a rookie and his game check was 0.00 because of the fine.

The excuses are never ending for Red...

 

[Risen Star]

Steve Dennis is another source.

He must be another hack.

 

[Risen Star]

I remember it happening several times, but it was before the Internet, so no link. And it was swiftly dealt with... just like Garrett deals with his problems now.

Yeah, and you're talking out of your rear end too. It never happened with Jimmy. Because he had control of his team.

20 players missing curfew shows a glaring lack of discipline.

You mean he has--organ music--an agenda?

Now we might be getting somewhere--when a source known for his pro Cowboys-bias confirms a story by a reporter with an anti-Cowboys bias then there might be a grain of truth to it. What Mickey says also would explain why Garrett was "salty"

 

[jazzcat22]

Tony Siragusa [sp?] just said on FOX, it is not an issue as there was no curfew except last night. And everyone was there and accounted for.

To me, it shows more about the influence of the head coach having zero real mandate with our current structure. Even if Garrett were upset, what could he really do?

classic!!!!

But this does trouble me a little. Where is the fear for their jobs? Where is the veteran leadership on a trip like this?
