I think back to the early days when Jerry bought the Cowboys and had a great coach in Jimmy Johnson. It almost seems like yesterday when Jerry "sold his soul to the devil" to miraculously turn the ailing franchise around.

But then came the day when Jerry said - "any one of 500 coaches could have won those Super Bowls".

Isn't that like biting the hand of the devil? So began the "Curse of the Cowboys".

They have had alot of coaches come through the doors of Valley Ranch, all with the same results in the end. I really like Jason Garrett as the head coach, but it seems we have a long way to go to break the "Cowboys Curse" that began with a statement by a drunk who sold his soul to the devil.
 
I think it has more to do with the ego of Tagliabue and the Pepsi fiasco than anything else. If you don't think the former has as big an ego as Jerry, you're fooling yourself. It just happens that Jerry was right and Tags was wrong and he's probably been searing ever since. There are no curses. There are just people out to get you who have more control behind the scenes than you think.

Bad decision making isnt a curse, it is mismanagement.

Ummm.....this was meant to be funny (I think it's blatently obvious that the problem IS Jerry Jones)
