If you were Jerry Jones

[Hidesert58kowboy]

who would you give the size 16 San Antonio boot in the arse to next?

I, for one, want our team to regain our reputation as America's Team, not San Quentin's Team. I never thought I would say this because I can't stand the Stillers, but I sure wish our ownership and management ran our Boys the way Rooney runs the Steelers with CLASS.

First time poster here guys, so be easy on me -- I'm stuck in Nevada where the sheep are better looking than the women and my only thrill in life is our Cowboys. I'm hoping that Jerry Jones continues to purge this team of the undesirables -- Packcrook Jones was a good start, but let's face it, there are a few others who need to go and go now. If you were Jerry, who would you send packing next?

He should start with himself.

That might speak more to your tastes than to the women. Or you live in Fugly, NV. :

 

[Zimmy Lives]

I'd give myself a good butt kicking if I were Jerry. Then I'd fire myself.

The "family site" provision prevents me from saying what he should do.

I would have went all in for Pioli as Personnel man.

Pioli can evaluate talent and having him set up to work with Stephen for the next 20 years would mean more to me than any T.O. drama.


I'd have Wade call a team meeting and address the guys about doing what it takes starting TODAY to win week 1 next year. Not Next year's Super Bowl but just week 1. Time to focus on these games 1 at a time and go to work. I'd tell the players I know they suffered through injuries but there were times when the effort was lacking and that simply can not be, ever again.

So basically I'd be a BP fill in for Wade and let Pioli run my draft.

I'd spread rumors to NFL execs that Tank Johnson has a few underage boyfriends too.... just because I could.

I'd also call in T.O. tell him he is our only offensive Hall of Famer and it is his responsibility to make Tony Romo a better player. He has to keep TR's confidence high and help him be the QB this team needs. He has to give over the top effort because everyone is watching and if he goes 110% other players will follow his lead. I would also tell him not to just talk to Irvin but be like him, support your Qb like he did Aikman and play as hard as him and keep quiet to the media. When his time is done if he wins a title here and has a big year doing so he'll then also have the guys talking about how he was the "heart" of the team like they do Irvin now. That alone would cause Keyshawn to cry.

Great post -- so true!!!

Tank Johnson would be next in my kick aim, followed soon after by Brad Johnson. Not because Brad is a bad guy, but because he just stunk.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

Pioli is pretty good. I would rather have Ozzie Newsom but I would not complain if we had Pioli.

Welcom to the board Hidesert58Kowboy

Newsome is very good but I like that Pioli having been with BP previously knows a lot of guys who came through that chain. We do alot of those things here still in the front office and Pioli could work with Jerry having already had to deal with Bill and Bill and the strong-willed owner in NE, Kraft.

Never was into foot or shoe fetishes...just not my cup of tea I guess.

We were a dynasty when we were "San Quentin's Team" and had our undercover meetings at the White House.





Oh yeah, *smh* @ sweet talkin sheep. Keep it in Vegas.

No need to kick Tank, he's a free agent, if I'm not mistaken, so that foot can be saved.

I'd go Brad Johnson first, then kick Gurode, just to wake him up (damn snap issues), then slap Flo a few times (Mr. False Start), then punch Romo in the face and tell him to quit pouting and looking like a baby after a loss. He needs to stay positive and be a leader of this franchise.

That'd be about it for now. Well, I'd have to yank on WP's earlobes for a while, just to make him upset and keep yanking them until he just stays in a constant foul mood, that way he can be more in charge of that locker room.

Changing Teams: The story of soon to be ex-Cowboys fan
By MJD
Yahoo! Sports

Recently, a man confessed to me that he's considering giving up on his current favorite team, and either adopting a new team, or forgetting about his NFL fanhood all together. I don't believe in "changing favorite teams." I don't believe it's something that an honorable person would do. So I was interested in this man's thought process, and asked if he'd agree to answer some questions and let us follow along with his decision-making process. He has agreed, under the condition of anonymity. We'll call him "Big Al." His favorite team, up until now, has been the Dallas Cowboys.

So, you're considering changing your favorite team. Why?

It's hard to reconcile for me rooting for a team owned by Jerry Jones. He seems to make only two types of hires: he either hires cronies and yes-men who will do whatever he says without challenging him on his questionable personnel moves, or the rare times when he does hire good football men to run the organization, he runs them out of town within a few years because of his own pathological need to take credit for the team's success.

Do you consider yourself a loyal person? A person with dignity and integrity?

I consider myself a very loyal person. If the Dallas Cowboys were sold to almost anybody else tomorrow, this would not be an issue. I just have a serious problem supporting a Jerry Jones-owned franchise. As a football fan, I have a hard time reconciling the way Jerry Jones has operated this franchise with the way good, decent teams have been run in the years Jerry Jones has been an NFL owner. Jerry Jones has as much business being the personnel man on an NFL team as I do, but yet he remains in charge of the team.

Do you realize the seriousness of this move?

I do, which is why I haven't made the decision yet to switch teams. I'm not even sure I could simply root for another team; it would go against every natural instinct I have. I may ultimately wind up simply no longer following the NFL, simply because I can't root for another team. But I do think it is at least worth investigating.

Is this something you've ever considered before?

I have never, ever considered abandoning this team before, even during the Dave Campo years, which were probably much more depressing than the current reign. I see this team circling down the drain in much the same way and I don't know if I can handle that, or if I can handle Jerry Jones running another competent football man out of town simply for not allowing him credit for personnel moves. That is my main motivation here.

You know there are worse owners than Jerry Jones, right? William Clay Ford seemingly wakes up every day and thinks to himself, "What can I do today to further weigh this franchise down with my own manure," and Lions fans are still Lions fans. What would you say to fans of those teams who would accuse you of being a bit of a spoiled wiener?

I certainly couldn't begrudge a Lions fan for feeling that way, but I also wouldn't begrudge them if they chose to follow another team, either. The situation in Detroit is one where the owner flagrantly does not care about the football team that is put on the field.

Say what you will about Jerry Jones, but he does care about putting a good team on the field. The problem is, he thinks he is the best man for the job to put that good team on the field. He craves the attention that would come with being seen as the most brilliant personnel man in the history of the NFL, and I feel that by supporting him, I am supporting this crazed belief. I'm not sure if I could fully, truly support another team, but I also feel like supporting Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys somehow makes it seem that I approve this fantasy, when I don't, and I'm not sure if I can continue to support it.

 

[CF74]

I say we pull a fast one or at least try and trade him to Miami

 

[joseephuss]

What is so classy about the Steelers?

They drafted Santonio Holmes who has had trouble off the field. They drafted Plaxico Burress.

Just like every franchise in the NFL, the Steelers will take chances on players with a checkered past.

 

[ddh33]

I know Jerry Jones loves this team, and I believe he truly wants to win. But I always get that feeling that Jerry can't see the forest for all of the trees in the way.

I think Jerry has tried very hard over the years to be more of a "big picture" kind of guy. I think that is why this locker room is why it is.

He saw Jason Garrett, and he saw the future coach of this franchise. But he knew Garrett probably wasn't ready for all of that, and he really did want to keep the 3-4. After all, he had dedicated time and talent to that side of the ball. So he got Wade Phillips and Jason Garrett and was sure everything was going to work.

BUt things didn't work out this year. The coaches didn't seem to have much authority, and the players seemed to tune them out easily.

So Jerry has to make some tough decisions, but he still has the big picture in mind. Jason Garrett didn't prove he was the guy yet. Mike Shanahan is out there. Even promoting Garrett might be a possibility. But who would run that defense. You see, Jerry isn't that short-sighted anymore...

And I think that is exactly what is getting him into trouble.

Honestly, I believe this team would be better off if they committed to a coach, style, system, something. But when you commit to whatever you do, you have to follow through on it.

If your head coach doesn't have the most respected voice in the locker room, you either need to get a new coach, or you need to get rid of the loud players. He can't have it both ways.

In a perfect world, everything would work out for Jerry. Wade would run the defense to perfection, while Garrett flawlessly runs the offense and waits for his day as the head coach. The players respect each other and the coaches, and they win. But this isn't perfect.

If Jerry wants to win, he needs to make the hard decisions to set himself up for winning. If Wade is his guy, he needs to act like it, and he needs to let everyone else know about it. If Wade isn't the guy, then - as much as you like him - get rid of him. But this team is (or did) falling apart from the inside. That's where he needs to look.

 

[Q_the_man]

If I were Jerry Jones, I would hire all females.

I would have a little dressed french and Italian Maid.

A chinese and Jamacian half dress nurse.

2 australian and 1 Russian half dressed gardner.

4 half dressed supermodel chefs, 1 from puerta Rico, 1 from Japan, 1 from England and one from Brazil.

I'll also have 3 trainers all half dressed, 1 from Italy, what the heck 1 American and 1 from Sweden.

Finally I'll have 3 half dressed maintanence helpers, 1 from New Zealand, Mexico and South Africa....

OH I forgot, I do need a couple men for the job, therefore I will gather 52 football players and a couple of great coaches for any amount of Money to put a winner on the field.........

Welcome!
I am like one of the senior and most important people here so you can look up to me and stuff. And feel freud to ax me anything you want or even ax for advice.

If I were Jerra I would first, get my assistant to call Jolie Richardson for a date and once that was consumated I would start cleaning house.

(Jolie upon gazing upon my contenence for the first time)


I would stand at the front of the building and wave goodbye to Proctor, Zach (oh, I forgot, that worthless heap of man is leaving anyway), Crayfish (to give Miles more game time), Brad Johnson and to Roy Williams (the bad Roy, not the one we foolishly gave up all them draft picks fer).

Then I would go get tank and tell him Wade was spreading roomers about him and let Tank go at Wade.
Then I would waive Tank and go visit Wade at the infirmary and give him and his son their pink slips and slippers.

OK, that brings me to lunch.

I'd have the most expensive meal at that Furr's in Irving. Then I'd call my board members in and fire two or three (just because I can.)

OK, after that I would sign in as TheChosenOne at the Zone and talk smack about what a good selection I made with Wade as Head couch (but didn't mean it).

That takes me up to dinner at the Mansion at Turtle Creek and eat them shrimps and crawdads.

Next I would call in Garrett and give him a raise and tell him "You're doing a fine job, Red-dy!"
I'd then take Stew to the local Greyhound bus station and leave him there with $200 in his pocket and tell him to "Go West, Young man, Go West."
After he falls for that I'd tell my driver to cruise down to Farmers Branch where I'd throw hundred dollar bills out the window and then watch them folks scramble and fight over them monies.

After picking up Jolie Richardson at the airport and buying her dinner at Furr's again, we'd go dancing and invite Tony and Jessica along.

I would then retire to my penthouse and change the roster. You know, like penciling in T.O. as a corner and Witten as a fullback just to mess with their minds at camp.

It would be a fine day. Oh, I'd also name the new stadium after me.
Who's gonna object? and most important what would I care.
Too, I'd give naming rights to some wealthy Middle East sultan. he could name it the Allah Bowl or Death to America Stadium or whatever, I don't care cause I am rich and powerful and i could squash all of yew like the little ants you are!

Lastly, get Warner in from Phoenix (after they lose) and sign him to a contract to backup Romo.
After telling Jolie Richardson I really didn't care for her I only wanted to use her, I'd leave her crying at the Greyhound bus station.

Man, this rich man's life is tiring.
Oh, then I would buy me a big dessert at the Dairy Queen and then send the Zone a $1 million donation.
