If you're still spending money on this franchise you're the problem

[Rockport]

These guys are hilarious! I poke at them and they go ballistic....

They’re not use to being held accountable for their behavior. Bad upbringings.

Trust me theirs a ton of blame to go around this franchise but as fans we can only control our impact on the cowboys and that’s giving Jerry jones our money.

It needs to stop! We have enabled this man for far too long making this mediocre franchise the most valuable in all of sports and what have we gotten in return for that?

Embarrassment and dissapointment for 20+ years.

We need to start speaking with our dollar because in this world money talks and sometimes it’s the only way for us fans to make our voice heard.

Not buying tickets and going to the death star buying concession food, drinks, and beer is where you really hurt Jerry Dumbo GM Jones.

I stop renewing my season tickets before the 1996 season and my finances are happier for it.

 

[plymkr]

Except that the Star Wars fan base is not dominated by dutiful devotees and the SW fanbase has spoken with their wallet and declining interest.

Ticket sales and natural gas is up...so...Jerry's doesn't care and there won't be change. Disney is going to have to change.

That is true. Disney’s stock has plummeted and ratings for Star Wars shows are rapidly declining which caused Disney to cancel several projects. They’re hemorrhaging money due to the poor products they produced like The Acolyte, Skeleton Crew.

Also Disney is getting its teeth kicked in on Marvel as well. She Hulk was a disaster, Immortals really hurt and some of the series they made in the Marvel universe crashed and burned.

The fans basically said enough and turned it off and Disney is taking a serious hit money wise. I would give anything if we as Cowboys fans could do that to Jerry and Air Quotes.

shut the hell up. Ill spend my money how I want. You are the problem, an absolute idiot that somehow thinks any NFL stadium

will be empty and that will somehow send a message to the owner.
30+ year fan? Who gives a damn?
CLOWN!

The poor me whining in this thread is telling and entertaining and character defining.

You two got me wondering how accurate this TV revenue thing is, so I did some Google searching. Sure, watching the games helps generate revenue, but there isn't a single team that benefits as the entire NFL has to share the revenue. The thing to keep in mind, though, is that there isn't a direct payment from viewers, but rather it comes from the networks and streaming services who pay the NFL crap tons of money, who then try to recoup this money by way of selling advertising and subscriptions like NFL ticket and other services.

Concerning sports radio and fan sites - I don't think any of the owners make any money off of that, unless they own the stations or sites. Jerry has nothing to do with CZ and doesn't make a penny off of us trashing his team. If I were to find out Jerry is making money from our posts here at CZ I would immediately close my account.

That is my point. Every team benefits so if you want to stick it to Jerry, change sports

Honestly I don’t even think it matters how much money we spend on the Cowboys gear and games, the stadium makes a ton of money. Thanks to the tax payers

 

[CowboysRule]

If that stadium was half empty or completely filled with opposing fans every week the embarrassment alone would force a change imo

It wouldn't. Absolutely nothing you do will change anything. And that's true of any fan. You need to accept this.

That's the funny part of this whole 'stick it to Jerry' thing. Even if the entire state of Texas stopped watching the Cowboys games he still makes money because of the shared revenue. So why bother?

Jerry will stop making money soon enough when nature does it's thing and sends him to his eternal dirt nap. When that time comes it won't matter if he's worth $5 or $500 billion.

Jerruh can make plenty of money selling tickets to our opponents.

Jerry doesn’t like to be embarrassed on national tv and having a stadium full of opposing fans every week will accomplish that

All money is good money to Jerral.

I remember when I was in the 3rd grade, we had the big kid in our class, I think he was like 15 or 16, and when the teacher left the room, she would say, "Rockport, you're in charge, you're the class monitor." I remember it to this day.

Merchandise sales are something like 2% of a team's total revenue.

I really hate the Thank You Jerry sentiment. There is so much wrong with this franchise that two trades that are far too late for this season to matter does not wipe out the flagrant incompetence and huckstering.

 

[Captain-Crash]

You wore a Jerry mask for Halloween, didn't you......

 

[Deionindahood]

Jerry could field a high school football team and the fans would still fill the stadium. I just don't get what Jerry has over the fans that keeps them eatting out of his hand? Why people put themselves through the agony of defeat is beyond me.

 

[Runwildboys]

Is it okay if I buy something that alludes to the Dallas Cowboys, but isn't licensed merchandise?

Gee, thanks!
