Jerry is THE most insecure, neurotic billionaire I’ve ever seen. He has proven for three decades that he has never understood what it means to have shared success. His pitiful insecurities to be seen as something he never was nor ever will be is the giant monkey that has hung on this team for far too long.
If Jerry had just been happy that he hired Jimmy Johnson and empowered him to do the drafting, developing, coaching and roster moves that made those 90s Cowboys so dominant, we would have won at least two more Lombardis. Jerry got tons of credit (and deserved it) for hiring Jimmy and believing in him in the early days of JJs ownership when the Cowboys really struggled. But his pathological need to be the false centerpiece of this proud organization has given us fans the disappointment of the last 27 years.
The Cowboys may be good enough this year to make a deep playoff run. If so we will all be thrilled. But most fans also know if that happens it will be in spite of Jerry Jones not because of him.
