Ed Werder savior?

[TellerMorrow34]

I don't think I'll be giving Ed any credit for this. Sorry.

I honestly think Werner had as much to do with TO being released as anyone. Personally....I am thankful to Ed...even though I thought what he did was wrong with whole TO thing. In any case...Dallas has a fighting chance next year.

Without reading the rest of this thread I must ask, WHO is Ed Werner?

You read the thread you WILL find out who he is. We got the hookup.

So if Dallas goes say 7-9 next year and the offense tanks because Roy E. Williams isn't nearly as good as Owens and has been a headache and Crayton continues to shoot off his mouth and not get open and Romo continues to be careless with the ball and Garrett's playcalling continues to be mundane and baffling at the same time (which is hard to do, but he did it last year) is Mr. Blue Suit still the savior?

I really, REALLY hope I'm wrong.

As I posted on my blog, I really WISH that I truly believe that Owens was the root cause of the problem and his presence is the main reason why the team went 9-7 last season. It would be an easy solution for me, release Owens and watch the team blossom again. Unfortunately, I hardly see Owens as the problem on offense.

Furthermore, I think we're just fooling ourselves if we really think that the press won't do their best to come up with some other BS story on the Cowboys which will wind up being a distraction.

For the most part when Owens was in Philly the media adored the move by the Eagles. There was the one tussle up where Owens was yelling on the sidelines in a game against Pittsburgh, but other than that, they downright adored the move. Then things legitimately blew up and the media rightfully reported it.

But from day one with Dallas the media scolded the move and tried to dig up controversy at every chance they could get. Remember, Mr. Blue Suit was the guy that reported that Owens 'attempted suicide because he was depressed over the way Parcells was treating him.' It only tells me that while Owens piques the attention of many people and reporters understand that, it's still a Dallas Cowboys thing. And it's not going to go away anytime soon.

Some savior.



YAKUZA

I feel the same way but it's something about your post that has it being said better though....

It is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Keep saying TO will be releaesed for 3 years, stir up continous drama, and when it happens, you say you were right. Funny how it was Mike Smith who broke the story, not Ed Werder. Ed Werder is about as dumb as any bum reported.

 

[cowboyjoe]

I highly doubt that. Can't say the same about a bunch of fans, but I won't name names.
LOl Hostile that was a good one.
Hey, Hostile you noticed werder to where i called him weiner werner, that was suppose to be satire and see if anyone caught it,

Werner is a weinei???

 

[cowboyjoe]

most of the reporters i like like jenn engel, jjt, mac engel, smoaky, main guy on nfl network, but i detest ed werder

 

[cowboyjoe]

yeah someone finally caught it,

werder is a weiner
to me, he is a rat, a fink, a bad apple, a snitch,

 

[TNCowboy]

Ratliff makes absolutely no sense here, just as many other players haven't.

Complete homers have lost their ability to objectively look at this team.

 

[TNCowboy]

werder is a weiner

Or maybe he's just a reporter who has more inside knowledge of the team than everybody on this board put together, who reported some ugly stories about the team, which, in hindsight, have been proven true.

 

[cowboyjoe]

no, michael irvin caught ed weiner warder in a lie, found out that when weiner was saying some things, he was assuming some things,

michael irvin caught him on that, and michael just shook his head and said Ed

 

[cowboyjoe]

ed werder will take a little of the truth, then add in his some of his conclussions, but wont say its his conclusions, then he lets it build and build

just like when wade phillips was giving a press conference, (ed weiner werder )im trying to make this rhyme) asked wade repeated questions on adam jones, while all the other reporters were asking questions about the game etc, ed weiner was getting red faced (looked like he was ticked off wade wouldnt answer him about adam jones) and wade wouldnt,

thats my point, ed weiner werder started this stuff, just like ed weiner werder said bradie james sings like a bird, that was weiner werder does, to me try to start stuff so he can make a story and blow things up on the cowboys

i dont like him, i think you get that drift, and i pray and hope jerry jones finally doesnt like him either, and the cowboys players and coaches dont talk to him now

Did you forget to complete your thought?

What lie did Michael Irvin catch Werder in?

 

[khiladi]

Note to Ed Werder defenders:

Michael Smith broke the story, not Ed Werder, who supposedly has the access to Valley Ranch.

So what? A radio station in Lubbock broke the story that we had signed him.

give him a few minutes.... he'll remember.. :laugh1:

And didn't a local radio station (or maybe CBS radio) break the news that Parcells would be coaching the Cowboys?

I'll use your point to discuss the thread topic.

Ed Werder is no savior. He's a reporter, who is suppose to cover the internal and external workings of the Dallas Cowboys, America's Team.

He's been covering the Cowboys for several years, both as a Dallas Morning News reporter and now an ESPN reporter. Werder is not unlike anyone in any profession. He scores scoops. Sometimes, he's off. He's not different than a doctor who misdiagnoses a condition, a lawyer who loses a case, a police officer who doesn't get that one lead to arrest a suspect, etc.

Ed Werder isn't the reason T.O. is no longer a Cowboy. T.O. is the reason T.O. is no longer a Cowboy.

T.O. knows how the media works. It's obvious he does because throughout his career he has run to the media to complain. He has used the media to his advantage when it suited his purposes. But he failed to understand that the media which was so attracted to him because of his own doing used him to continue generating stories about the Dallas Cowboys - a team America can't get enough of reading or seeing in the newspapers or on television.

T.O. didn't understand this. But he kept running to the media complaining about his quarterbacks, his coaches, how he needs to get the ball, how he can't throw it to himself, yada, yada, yada.

He could have nipped all this in the bud (as Barney Fife would say) if he had just gone to work, done his job and kept his mouth closed. Then, people would be more sympathetic to him because he would have given them a track record to support his efforts to reform. He did not do that.

Now, I do believe that media people had a vendetta against T.O. I'm in the media and I know that media people are as human as you and I. And they can go after a person they don't like. You'll get no arguments from me on that.

But if you know this, why give people ammunition? It's like people complaining why ministers are always criticized worse than Hollywood celebrities if they're caught in wrongdoing or immoral situations. Hello, ministers preach about living an upstanding moral lifestyle. Hollywood celebrities don't. So of course, one is going to get more attention if one draws attention to one's self, one's morality, one's standards, etc.

Stop complaining about how the world is, and do your part so that you're not a part of the negative publicity.

In summary, T.O. did this to himself. He ultimately controlled himself and his voice. No one could make him talk. No one forced him to sit down with Deion Sanders. No one forced him to publicly criticize Garrett. He did that himself.

And given his pattern, which HE established, he's gone.

T.O. wrote his own story. Ed Werder, et. al., just furnished the commas and, in the case of T.O.'s career with the Cowboys, the period.

 

[dougonthebench]

T.O. was not the entire problem,and Ed Werder can go jump off a bridge for all I care.Werder doesnt know his head from his you know what about football,and I mute the TV when he is reporting.
Good luck T.O.,and I hope our secondary can stop him,like other teams have done to us with him.
