A petition to hire a real General Manager

[JBS]

One thing (and I think this is a fair-and-correct assessment) most fans ignore is the fact Jerry Jones anointed himself General Manager and President atop his status as owner. Point being, Jerry Jones would make money regardless if he was not the general manager.

Jones' intractability for being general manager is an issue existing between his ears. It is inflexible, managerial, philosophical problem much more deep seated than most have, are or will ever self-acknowledge.

It has always been my opinion that the only way to manipulate Jones into compliance is not through his wallet but by attacking his narcissism. Maybe that approach would not work but one thing has been proven over the past 2 1/2 decades. People talk about financial boycotts but no one has ever been seriously committed into creating a well-thought, long-term plan for accomplishing the net goal.

There have been hundreds of thread boycotts created on CowboysZone since its inception. The only difference between all of them has been the wording. In other words, they have (and will continue to be) all the same.

People say Jones is insanity personified for trying to gain success his way year-in year-out but netting the same results. How is his behavior different from 20-plus years of boycott scheming?

The difference is nobody executed any sort of plan. They've all talked about it, but nobody took any sort of action. I'm not suggesting that this time is different, bc it isn't, nobody is going to take action now either. And that's why no change will be in store. But that's the answer to your question.

Jones' incessant managerial approach is the exact same as all the perpetual boycott talk. Jones has zero desire to self-evaluate whether a different outsider mindset could net him championship results. Boycotters have no inclination in self-assessing alternative strategies for motivating Jones into doing something atypical of what he has done for three decades. Both are mirror images of each other's never-ending, dogged perseverance--manifesting nothing in the end.

Let's make it happen. Get everyone here to sign it and we can forward it to other Cowboys and friends for them to sign.

Then send the petition to some major news outlets and maybe they'll pick up the story and it will spread.

This forum could make some noise and put pressure on Jones.

What do you all think?

Who could get this going?

I nominate @Reality

Lmao and were suppose to convince the Owner of this.....

Have you thought about a billboard? Maybe get a billboard.

btw. This will definitely work

I started a thread this morning that was deleted but this was what I was getting around to. Right outside the Ranch. Someone start a **********. I'll contribute.

 

[ryanbabs]

Your idea, why does someone else need to start it?

Right...start protesting at the Death Star and you’ll have hundreds there before you know it. ESPN would be all over that.

 

[zrinkill]

Oh God ....... The billboard is back on the menu boys!

Second worse thread of the year. And the cherry on top was the threat starter stating he wants someone else to do the work for him. LMAO. As if a billionaire cares what random people in an online forum have to say.

As stated before, no one has ever put together a systematic plan to attack Jones's massive influx of money each year via merchandise, ticket sales, and tv money. Stop wasting time with second grade "I wish" petitions.

Learn to be more constructive with your criticism.

It will help you get further in life.

Zzzzz.zZzzz.. Hasn't this been done like a 1000x by the fan base. LOL Nothing is going to change.

There’s only one way to get his attention. Challenge the revenue. Anything short of that will be a wasted effort as he ducks driving under the drive thru at the bank.

Nothing will get his attention like a hit on his revenue.

Jerry will probably use your petition as a placement so his Johnny Walker doesn't leave a mark on his mahogany desk.

I’m personally on year 5 and my disdain for the joneses prevented me in ordering that Poe jersey I spent the past few years thinking about ordering.

I want Charlotte to take over. She's our last chance...

Oh God ....... The billboard is back on the menu boys!

 

[ghosttown cowboy]

Anything that takes the shine off Jerry isn't happening. He is gonna keep digging this hole until he gets to China.

Have not all owners received hits to their gate revenue? Heck. Is that not been true of all major sports owners this year? Why would a different causation prompt Jones to relinquish general managerial control?

This is a fair stance. It doesn't change the fact that nobody has ever taken action on the issue.

I haven't invested any money in the team since January 2017...so closing in on 4 years..I traveled to the divisional playoff game and witnessed another letdown..I promised myself I wouldn't spend another penny until this team made the nfccg..I'm still waiting..I'll probably be waiting for a while..oh well..screw them

Yep, exactly why I don't buy anything "Cowboys" related anymore. Stopped about 10 years ago. My own personal protest of the low standards. That's what people really need to do.
