Mavs can be teaching tool for Jason Garrett

June, 16, 2011 Jun 164:28PM CTEmail Print Comments By Todd ArcherIRVING, Texas -- If you paid attention to the Mavericks’ run to the NBA Championship, you heard coach Rick Carlisle use the terms ‘process,’ and ‘journey,’ and ‘staying in the moment,’ a bunch. His players repeated those words, too, and took home a title.

Jason Garrett must have been smiling because that is the same mantra he has preached since coming to the Cowboys in 2007 and told the full team that once he took over midway through the 2010 season.

It can only help Garrett’s message to the Cowboys that Carlisle’s message worked so well. Garrett can point to the Mavericks as a team that remained in the process and trusted the system and had success.
 
Gotta love journalism today. This is about the fifteenth different way the same subject has been written since last weeks NBA finals
 
Come on they are acting like the Mavs are the 1st team to every win a championship and somehow Garrett can learn from it?

Maybe the writer forgot one major point. Garrett has a SB ring he has played for a championship team he saw 1st hand how the job is done. Unless the Cowboys are going to have more charity basketball tournaments I doubt the Mavs win will help the Cowboys in any way
 
Maybe Cuban can teach Jerry a thing or two also.
 
i will now be on the look out for an article titled...

"Cowboys stadium could learn from AAC and Ballpark in Arl"
 
I thought Cuban was not buying rings for the players? Anyone heard anything different on this, or what he is going to replace the "old school rings" with?

"We've got to talk to him about that," said Dirk Nowitzki, the finals MVP. "I don't think the last word has been spoken yet. We know he always wants to do something different, something bigger. But the ring is just so classic. I think I would vote for a ring. I mean, I'm a man. I don't know how I'd feel about a bracelet."

To be fair, how many does Jerry have without Jimmy?

To be fair how many does Cuban have without Dirk? :D

I just think trying to draw comparison of the Mavs and Cowboys is reaching. Then again many of the sports writers are having to reach for things to write about during the lockout

I agree about the comparison being pointless, but I also know that Jerry has had very little success since he decided he was smart enough to do this without Jimmy telling him who to pick and who to sign.

Then again Jimmy did not hire himself it was Jerry and people laughed at Jerry when he let Landry go and hired a college coach. Wasn't it Buddy Ryan who said there were no William and Mary's in the NFL.

I would also add Jimmy was going to leave anyways and has said this himself. I think the argument at the owners meeting was an easy out for Jimmy.

Lastly there have been many things I have disagreed with Jerry on over the years but I also think he has learned from mistakes and I have seen this franchise making moves in the right directions. Like everyone else I hope this move to Garrett will be what puts us over the top
 
Heres the lesson.

Go win so you don't have to see so many terrible articles wrote.

As they say winning solves everything.
