A Dallas Media Myth: "Jerry must do X to sell this team to the fans and fill the seats"

If you want change, money won't do it.

However, laughing at him, constant media ridicule, fans booing him every chance they get, will do the trick. That's what got Parcells here, pure humiliation.

The one man promotion machine known as Jerry Jones thinks he has to sell something to the fan base each off season. I don't give a rats backside about that stuff. Just start winning games on the field in January and everything will take care of itself.

Great post.

He has the cart before the horse for yearsssssss now.

Jerry said he likes the pain but it's probably just talk. I cannot think of an NFL exec/owner who craves the spotlight more than Jerry.

the desire to get a new stadium got Parcells here, Jerry knows what the fans want and don't give a rip

But that is how good Jerry is at promoting.................we have not won games in January for a hell of a long time and yet fans turn out in droves to watch his head coach in training put up 500 records every year.


That takes talent!

I realize communication via hyperbole is the norm these days but Jeez Louise!

Don't know if it is true or not, but heard Jerry Jones and the Cowboys spent $250M and netted a profit of around $300M for last year. When you're making that kind of money, the media gets very jealous. Who really cares about what the media says about the Cowboys. They are almost always negative anyway. Doesn't matter what you do.

Like it or not we as fans have a choice in the matter. Stop supporting the team in any manner, stop watching them, and
just let the media know we don't want to hear anymore about the Cowboys as we are done.

Not where I'm going but the reality is JJ has put his money on the line to make money and in that regard he wins every year.

Face it, we are the Kardashians/Honey Boo Boo/ Jersey Shore of the NFL. People watch because they want to see a train wreck. Jerry loves it because it fills his pockets and allows him to get his face on national TV which sates his ego.

lol, we're 8-8, not 2-14. I'm not going to stop watching the games unless I start seeing players quit. But I actually like the game of football, regardless of who is playing...

Why would I stop supporting the team and quit watching? I like the Cowboys and have for 37 straight years. And I think Jerry Jones put together a team with enough talent to advance to the playoffs again for the 3rd straight year. Injuries and the head coach hamstrung the team again. I would like a different coach. But, I'm not going to throw a temper tantrum and make ultimatums. It's not about Jerry Jones even though the media keeps feeding that line to the masses.

You and I are of the same vintage and share the same optimism...... So true on the media they " love to hate"
