It should have went like this.

Are you embarrassed?

Jerry: Would you be embarrassed standing in this stadium?

Yes.

AT & T is a circus. Give me Lambeau. I want football and w's!!!!
All that money, why did Jerry have to sell the name? All that money couldn't he have kept it Texas Stadium or Arlington.... Oh wait, I know it's a business.

The usual stunned silence from the Dallas media when Jerry gets testy.

Uh, what's he going to do? What are you afraid of? Come right back at him. You are the problem, Jerry. And I'm going to tell you that right to your surgically altered face. The days of you going unchallenged while you destroy a storied franchise are over.

Why is the stadium an embarrassment? Jerry is the embarrassment. The stadium has nothing to do with the outcome of games.

The stadium has cage dancers, Art that has nothing to do with football, dancer lounges, that gaudy screen. It isn't about the team or football it's about Jerry's ego. The thing is a gaudy embarrassment.


Forgot to mention the name change is an embarrassment too.

Yet if the Cowboys were winning none of that would matter. It's possible to have an A1 stadium and an A1 team. The problem is Jerry hasn't done what needs to be done for the latter. The stadium doesn't bother me one bit. If they were still at Texas Stadium it wouldn't bother me either.

Read the whole article. This quote was slapped into the article really no context to it.

I am not a Jerry apologist and the formatting in the article sucks but, this is a case the reporter heard what he wanted to hear and ran with it. I will give Jerry the benefit. Here is the quote with the next line which based on the way the article read it was continuation.

“I don’t know,” Jones fired back. “Would you get embarrassed if you were standing in this stadium? Seriously. The answer is no, not at all.”

Jones said everyone in the Cowboys’ locker room was sick about the two-point loss to Philadelphia.


I think he was trying to say and I could be wrong, he is not embarrassed that his undermanned team was out played and lost by only 2 to a team that should have rolled them up like the saints did.

You know, hate is a word that is of meaning so severe that I rarely invoke it. Uttering Jerry Jones name is one of those occasions I adhere to it vehemently. There is no other constant in the world of the last 19 years of Sundays that has caused as much grief as this addled b@stard.

I HATE Jerry Jones and everything his policies and procedures have wrought on this franchise since 1995.

That's Jerry, style over substance.
As long as the stadium is full and the money keeps flowing, there is no reason to improve and worse, it also validates his actions and abilities as a owner and GM.

Keep fiddling Nero, Rome may be burning, but it keeps you warm and gives off a lovely light.

Yeah ok. I didn't say the stadium was the reason the team wasn't winning as you eluded earlier. I just meant it was an embarrassment. It's also symbolic of what we get with Jerry in charge. Larger than life BS, without substance, meaning or real purpose.

Seems You are picking a fight over nothing.

I'm not picking a fight. I just misunderstood you. If you meant the stadium is a symbol of Jerry's misplaced priorities. I can agree with that.
