It would be hilarious if we let Dak go but my money is on Jethro’s intent to resign him.
Its really that simple. Jerrys m.o. is to double down. Hoping it works THIS time.

When jerry finally decided to ditch jg, i didnt care about consequences....just wanted that change. Dak is not as bad as that to me, but id be okay with it. This chapter seems to be lingering.

Id love to have regular season dak in the playoffs.

By not reading it you missed my perspective of listening to our owner which wasn’t meant to be as some took it.

I meant we should listen to him of his intentions and how he views this team.

He’s all in on Dak and thinks this team is close which is how he’ll conduct his actions despite whatever we or the media thinks he should do.
I can't believe how many posters don't understand what you are saying. I think when they hear the name Jerry that they get all excited like you are trying to tell all of us that listening to Jerry is a good thing, which I think you are saying it is not. Dak is coming back, Jack, is what Jerry is saying.

Jerry simps for every player he falls in love with. I mean, this is the same person that thought Quincy Carter was going to win a superbowl. We’re floating thru life with Dak because Jerry has a hard on for him, it’s that simple. In reality, we should be churning constantly and already have a plan and players that do not involve Dak.

Well, remember when Jerry said something about seeing Aikman in the shower? I think he's been peeping at Dak taking a shower also. You know the old narcissist is also a pervert, right?

Of course he is. But you dont need to know what jerry recently said to know it. 30+ years is enough.

Also wouldnt hurt to run the op through a pro editor.:)

Everyone is making speculation on what the Cowboys should do in regards to our coaching , QB contract and overall situation but they aren’t soaking in what Jethro is telling us.

Regardless however ridiculous or frustrating we are with our current state of the union it probably isn’t on the same page as our owner.

In order to have a better insight or instincts to our owners priorities and intentions they should at least attempt to take him for his word and what’s he’s trying to communicate.

I’ve invested 35 years now following Jethro . In the early years I met him on several occasions beginning in New Orleans in Sept 1989 as I was part of the initial group of Dallas Cowboys Travel Club which I traveled with team . I was also a season ticket holder and attended all of the Training Camps at St Edwards in Austin, Midwestern Univ in Witchita Falls and Alamodome in San Antonio.

In those early years I was in support and All In because of his hiring of Jimmy . I said from Day 1 that he was a hands on owner we could tolerate as long as we were having success on the field. Once it was revealed after the fallout with Jimmy that his priorities weren’t all about winning placing his personal agendas ahead of what’s best for Cowboys Football is when I begun speaking out against him.

I tell you this because I’ve always felt appreciative of his personal demeanor greeting me and brief converse we had. But that was when we felt his intentions were honorable despite his socks to jocks mantra which initially made us very cautious and uncomfortable.

I’ve been on the forefront calling him out since . After most of 4 decades as season ticket holder at Texas Stadium ( my father had our tickets for first 15+ years) I was part of tens of thousands long time season ticket holders which refused to make the trip over to new stadium.

Anyway, I believe this qualifies me as much as anyone I’ve heard from in this forum to present some insight to what our owner is thinking or what his intent is. I hope fans here will take some credence to this.

In the end it’s still my opinion but it’s based on much history of following the man and his actions which unfortunately have been closer to reality than what I’d prefer. And these thoughts I present don’t necessarily represent my opinions on the matter but rather what I believe his are.

And too many pundits in the media , social media and fans aren’t either taking him for his word or don’t fully understand what makes him tick. But from everything he’s stated in last week suggest he’s still All In on our QB which means another contract . And while he’s not extended our HC he’s giving him his final year on contract in a situation most would probably have made a change.

He still sees this team as being close. At least that’s his perspective he’s perpetuating publicly which is what we need to follow. He’s often brutally honest revealing entirely too much information. He believes more will buy in as he truly believed it. And it appears he believes we aren’t a playoff team without our QB .

I’d suggest fans brace for the reality of the message he’s been sending about these two key elements. Will there be other roster changes , of course as there is always some adjustments needed made with Cap implications, etc.

But this old fool is still All In on our QB. He loves the comfortable situation of being a playoff contender with him even if it comes up short in playoffs. This is a much better situation to him than the risk of starting over and what those unknowns present.

He sold 8-8 as well as we’ve ever seen. I promise you he will sell 12-5 as well. What he can’t sell is 5-12. And that’s his greatest fear and why he will stay with what is a consistent winning situation however frustrating and disappointing these end of seasons are.

I wish I had better news. But if Cowboy fans truly want the change they are seeking will need to root for a collapse or possible career ending injury cause this owner is not about to walk away from this level of success with this QB until he sees another can take him as far like when he let Romo go for Dak.
Well, OK.

Yea, that’s a big part of it. He thinks we’re close with Dak. He’s also comfortable with a 12 win playoff team regardless results.

This^^^^

We just need to shut out all of the outside noise cause Jethro is “All In “ on Dak.

I know fans want change but it’s not happening now.

IT is not really surprising that someone that age is looking for comfort. controversy and change is very exhausting

Jerry can’t say no to 25 year old men the way I can’t say no to 25 year old women

Well, I've been listening to Jerry since the beginning also, and I can tell you, He better begin to learn how to sell 5 and 12.
+ I don't think he's dumb enough to extend the current QB
The guy loses every big game he enters, besides his lack of certain skills, his doubts have now crept into his head and they're not leaving.
I think the doubts have also crept into the locker room.

My parents were apart those clubs back in the early 90’s and we use to use them when we would travel to the games. Back in the mid 90’s my dad and uncle wanted to live closer to each other so they settled on Valley Ranch when they were developing all the homes. My uncle and cousin ended up passing away in a car accident 6 months before our move. It was too late to back out of the house as they had it built on the corner of Cowboys Parkway.

Had the chance to meet Jerry and Ms. Love many times as her and my father had become friends. I totally understand your point, but I can’t listen to him anymore it just always feels empty.
I’m not saying we should heed what he’s saying or but in. Some fans missed intent if my message . Prob responding to my title not the content of message. Which is listening to our owners intent not whether it’s plausible or not.

He’s serious about being “ All in” with this team and Dak especially. I’m not saying that’s a good thing. But many fans want something else . I’m just saying it’s not happening right now . And if we listened to Jethro he’s trying to tell us regardless how much we hate to hear it.

How does it go??? Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. Fool me 27 times???? Commit me.... :facepalm:

In all fairness it shouldn’t have taken 27 times, you should’ve been committed on the first one.

:muttley:


Haha sorry I’ll show myself out, make sure you tip your servers!

are you talking about the same owner, who has said the same thing for 28 year and has had the same dismal results. that's the owner you want us to listen to?

so why should I trust this owner again?

and you are partially at fault. cancel your ticket. don't spend your dollars on stupid Jerry. and things will change. until then, Jerry is getting exactly what he wants. fans in seats, buying merchandise and enjoying the experience. its not about winning.

I'm reading your post and do not quite understand what you are saying. I think you are saying he wants to win and is all in.

Partly . I’m just saying we should hear his message. He’s “ all in” with this team and Dak especially. He thinks we’re close.

Many fans are wanting change but it’s not happening this year. Jethro is trying to tell us but some fans aren’t listening.

I’m not saying I agree or he’s right. I just think he’s sold on it . And most of all comfortable with it.

Oh boy another “go find a new team”. Smh
Yeah, that reminds me? Where has our favorite poster that always says that when Dak is mentioned in bad light? I can't remember the name of that poster, but I have not seen hide nor hair from that poster. lol

Im not saying that at all .

I’m just saying he believes in what he’s saying . And that’s how it’s going to be this year.

I’m not endorsing it.
