Cowboys continue to top the Forbes list of most valuable sports franchises

[75boyz]

Championship (the one that matters)!

EXACTLY.
Who needs Lombardi trophies?
So over rated, geez.
Shrugs.

 

[maryquality]

We're number one!!!

 

[conner01]

Jerry's target is 11B valuation and long term to hit 15B....
business as usual continues.

I think he could get 11bilion right now. The cowboys are a cash cow. The stadium brings in huge revenue that Jerry doesn’t have to share.

That's how good the Cowboys USED to be.

Did you know that, to this day, they still have the highest winning percentage of all 32 franchises?

The Cowboys were so good that even the past 28 seasons of mediocrity hasn't changed their #1 ranking, although it is now razor thin.

The Packers are now 3 games behind the Cowboys and the Ravens are 5 games behind.

Cowboys 57.39%
Packers 57.31%
Ravens 57.02%

Most likely, the Cowboys are #1 in value because they have a fanbase that is older, and the previous era created strong loyalty. The older the fanbase, the stronger their buying power.

In other words, Jerry Jones is still milking the Cowboys fans that were here before he stepped in.

He also prioritizes corporate purchases for season tickets to the point that it squeezes out lower middle-income" Joe Fan" types. The people for whom the NFL was originally built for can no longer afford season tickets.

He sold the naming right for his stadium instead of doing the right thing and giving something back to those that made the franchise so valuable, as well as their fans. AT&T stadium should be Landry Stadium.

Jerry Jones has looked for every possible penny he can squeeze. He was a major force in NFL games being broadcast on pay-only venues, something that former commissioner Pete Rozelle promised would never happen.

Ironically, the NFL was not intended to be profitable. Originally, teams were owned by a prominent businessman in a community as a way of giving something back as well as promoting good public relations for the owner's business. The NFL used to be a tax-free entity, I don't know if it still is.

plasticman....this is the absolute BEST post to be written on the subject of Jerry Jones, the Cowboys and money. The best out of probably hundred of thousands. Congrats sir.

Jerry and Stephen Jones true Super Bowl.

It's true.
They're businessmen, not football players.
They built the most valuable sports franchise in the world, and are working on a Tenpeat next year.
We may often hate how they run the team, but we shouldn't kid ourselves that they're morons.

 

[DAL1180]

..yeah, that never bugged me. Jerry is self made man.

He even stated recently, "If I could buy a SB, I would".. Show's to tell, the guy wants to win.

Then why doesn't he? Pay a top head coach. Pay a top football minded guy as GM.. Ok paying for useful FA's. All of these things he CAN pay for. He just won't. He would rather lose doing it his moronic way than spend the money to win. Thirty years championship-free is proof enough of that.

Well at least he is a great human being….a loyal and devoted husband and father.

We sit here and wonder how they continue to find new ways to lose.

Jerry actually said about a year ago….”you ask what you’ve done to deserve this…”

I have a few answers for him. Karma. What goes around comes around, etc. Thanks for taking us all along for the ride.

you are most probably right.

 

[MS17]

All the money in the world can't fix stupidity!!!

All the money in the world can't fix stupidity!!!...or buy a Super Bowl.

 

[Cydios]

It's cool, but we don't deserve it.

..good points, mate. IDK..... I'd be first to tell ya.

You have to admit, he's egotistical. I guess that's our problem

 

[KJJ]

As long as they keep topping that list the Joneses will be happy regardless the product they put on the field.

 

[big dog cowboy]

That's how good the Cowboys USED to be.

It's got nothing to do with that.

 

[TheCritic]

Even Cowboys fans are offended by this. No way the Cowboys should be the most valuable anything right now!

 

[SultanOfSix]

No why the hell are the Jets on there?

I've gotta agree.
Simply outstanding, plastic.

 

[Cowboys5217]

Jets have played in three AFC Championship games since the Cowboys last played in an NFC Championship game.

 

[Cowboys5217]

We live in a world where being ridiculous is more valuable than being useful. Here's more proof.

 

[Cowboys5217]

..yeah, that never bugged me. Jerry is self made man.

Nope, he was born wealthy. His father was a grocery store chain owner. It takes money to make money. Nobody would have ever heard of Jerry had he been born in a trailer park.
