Twitter: Broaddus talking about Stephen Jones

[dsturgeon]

Regardless of the results, if I owned the team, I would be the GM and make all the decisions I wanted to.

It is a game. It is fun. Everyone who plays fantasy football can understand.

The cowboys are profitable. Why give away the fun

I can understand this sentiment.

So, Like Father, like Son!

Jerry struck gold with Jimmy. Jerry also wasn’t afraid to go get guys to help win ... Haley and Prime.

Stephen is just cheap lol

 

[dsturgeon]

I can understand this sentiment.

People act like the jones are letting down the fans. They have built the most profitable sports franchise, and it is family run. It is an amazing feat, and people want to destroy how it is run, and backseat drive it

What Stephen did do was talk the old man out of drafting Manziel.

So...

We got that going for us.

Which is nice.

That’s the creepiest picture of broaddus I’ve ever seen

 

[Bigdog]

Wasn't Bill Parecells high on Stephen when he was here?

 

[Ranched]

Thanks Broddaus. Now I'll be able to sleep tonight.

 

[pitt33]

Bill may have been high when he said that.

On what exactly I can’t be sure.

 

[Bowdown27]

Same radio station that said Dak's career might be over last week?

LOL ahhhh yes. With the gem cavangaugh as well.

 

[Mr_437]

Nothing new really, but other GMs recognizing the Cowboys GM is struggling

 

[cowboyec]

that poor ol' s position is gonna get shorted again...isn't it.

 

[TwoCentPlain]

But...but...he has a degree in Chemical Engineering!

Coming from an electrical engineer myself, that is a good thing. Shows he has logic and problem solving abilities. He also played the game in college. Spent the good part of his life immersed in football.

I keep asking those who complain about GMs to list out the traits of good GMs. What makes a good GM? No one has an answer. A few will mention Ozzie and slither away since they have no idea. A few might pick the latest SB winning GM and slither away since they have no idea.

Former player? Former scout? Business experience?
Masters degree?

My guess is that some of the GMs have some sort of connection to the owners. It’s a big club - they keep recycling the same GMs.

 

[Stash]

We were making smart football decisions.

Demarcus, Demarco, and even Dez.

There were a few other smart decisions we made.

Then we got stupid again with the Zeke deal.. Then Jaylon.. Waited forever to sign Lawrence.

So no wonder Todd France knows he can get Dak all that money. They know the Jones's are bluffing.

Can’t argue this.

 

[Whirlwin]

Same radio station that said Dak's career might be over last week?

Can’t believe How naïve ignorant some people are. Uneducated on the final subject

 

[Stash]

That’s the creepiest picture of broaddus I’ve ever seen

There aren’t many - if any - good ones. Poor guy.

We're fans. We want them to win, not make money. Even though that is the name of the game: be profitable, but winning is also the name of the game because, well, it is a game.

Fans drive the business in the end and they want what they want.

But I do get what you said about if you owned a team, you'd want to play with your toy.

No way nobody has answered.
@AsthmaField ? Would you choose not to answer what makes a good GM?
@stasheroo ?

 

[visionary]

Wow....you mean to tell me that guys that worked for free for years working their way up the ranks to finally make GM dont respect a guy that got the same job because daddy owns the team?

go figure

 

[Dre11]

LOL ahhhh yes. With the gem cavangaugh as well.

wrong it wasnt cavanaugh, it was mike Basik and completely different show
