Once upon a time, in a pigiron kingdom known as Jeraldinia, the football team was stalled as an also-ran. Jerald the ruler at last said, "let someone else do the hard work an take the abuse!"
So he hired Jimmy Johnson as GM.
As soon as the helmet-haired chap arrived, he looked around and saw bejeweled players lounging at the Star.
"Everyone, especially the fat louts, take a lap and then run by and say " Thank you" and run another lap. You're warming up to do sprints!"
A big defensive player rolled his eyes and his mate next to him mutters "This is bull sheet."
Jimmy runs up and confronts them.
"You!" Jimmy shouts, pointing at the eye roller, "You are now on the practice squad!"
"You!" Jimmy shouts, pointing at the mutterer, "You are lucky you are a Blue Chip or you'd be traded to the Bears!"
The following day Jimmy looks upon his kingdom.
On offence he keeps CeeDee and ... Gallup (I dunno, ask Jimmy!) Aubrey, Turpin, Fergie, Martin, Anger and Tyler Smith.
Yes, that is it.
The rest of the O will be traded or packaged for draft picks.
Those we cannot get rid of will have to reapply/compete for the job.
And who is our Herschel Walker?
Micah the Mouth.
We cannot afford him, and his blabbering is producing friction among fans, management and fellow players. And we have to offer quality to get quality.
So Jimmy looks at the D.
He shakes his head.
He anoints Parsons, Bland, Diggs and Hooker as players and the rest expendable.
Blowing it up the way Jimmy did in 1989!
Blowing it up and have a conveyer belt of high-energy, inexpensive players coming in.
Announce that Dallas' priorities are QB, RB, DL, DL, CB, S. Go hard at hungry, inexpensive youth to offset our cap stars.
The alternative?
That is to remain in a rut with the same cast of expensive, entitled clowns.
Nice fairytale. Yes, lads?
