I really don't understand this comment.

Are you saying that if Jones only kept quiet, the Cowboys would suddenly stop losing games?

Or, are you saying that if Jones would only say that we are doomed, the Cowboys would suddenly stop losing games?

Either way, I would like to know what you base your premise on.
I thought he was saying it is my fault. Either way, that's so superstitious it's funny.

GM/Owner is not part of the team, his Role is to keep his mouth shut, let the coach, coach, and assemble the talent to win a championship.

It been 15 years and we're still not there.

Enough with the BS

Exactly right.

He's saying if the Owner wasn't an egotistical lunatic who needs to be the voice of this team we wouldn't be in this situation.

He's right.

Bingo...thankyou.
 
I can’t stand Jerry Jones and i am not interested in agreeing with him about anything...but, season is still early. Cowboys are a still a good team. I think this team might get on a roll here before Thanksgiving. I am not sure they are close to being a real contender, but they need to continue to improve and continue to hope that Garrett learns how to better manage game ending situations. There is reason enough to keep some sliver hope.
 
Geez guys.....you know the biggest problem with this site? It's FILLED with negativety and naysayers.

Guys look. Luckily our defense is much improved. In fact we're still #1 in pass defense and the 4th overall defense. This is what was IMPOSSIBLE for last year to accomplish. Now the problem this year is our offense tookk a good 4-5 weeks to start clicking. Now that they have, I believe things can be really great with this team.

The problem though is this: this team is undisciplined. The last drive at Baltimore shows this team isn't prepared for situational football. I can only hope Red-J starts to understand he needs to do a better job with that and if he does and gets this team more prepped, good things WILL HAPPEN!!
 
I obviously am optimistic for us this season but jerry has to really shut up. let's put more pressure on this team.
 
It's teams like last years Giants that gives Jerry hope. play .500 football Sept. thru Nov., then light it up in Dec. and January. And February. The difference is the Giants KNOW they can do it.

Just what I feared - the 'ohhh look we almost beat dem der Ravens!' logic has gotten to Jerry's head.

"All of those things give us a chance to take a team that is, if you look at the pluses (Sunday), evolving into a team that can compete for the championship. Not next year. This year."

Damn him for showing faith in HIS TEAM. What is the deal with people getting upset? If you don't like the team or think they sucks then great your view point.
 
The article showed up in my CT paper this morning. I get the sense that it is treated kind of like Rexian bombast, with some humor value, not sure though.
 
Me thinks this is Jerry saying to all who were claiming that this was a rebuilding year (JTT?) and that Garrett is learning on the job that is not what he expects. He's all in for this year to make a run. And he should feel this way and so should the rest of the organization. Now us fans don't have to drink the cool aid if we don’t want to but that doesn't necessarily mean Jerry is mismanaging the team.

Exactly ... and that is the snake oil that Jerry is selling to the masses. :laugh2:

I don't think people believe or not based on what Jerry says. Yes he is standing up supporting his team so what.
 
Been hunting a few times...many times you come home empty handed if you don't know when you're doing, or the people with you don't.

Glad I don't roll with those guys anymore.

I gotta ask -- what's the fascination with killing an animal standing in the woods or a field minding its own business? Does it make you feel like a bad *** that you can kill something with a gun? I mean, you see a deer just standing there, peacefully grazing in a field and your automatic instinct is to shoot and kill it?

Come hunting with me and I think you'll get an answer. Not one you respect possibly, but hunting is not all that easy.

Might not be easy, that's not my point. Plenty of things are difficult, snowboarding, golfing, getting a good photograph of the same animal instead of shooting and killing it.

What's with the desire to just randomly blow something away that is doing absolutely nothing to you? Or anyone? Just standing there, minding its own business? I mean, do you realize you're causing pain and fear in another living creature? For nothing but pure sport? Just because you can?
 
My only problem with this is that we should be in the hunt every year. It should go without being said. Like one other poster said though, I'd rather hear him say we're going after it then we're not.

At the risk of talking in a complete circle, it could also help if he were to say we won't be going to the playoffs with the way the team is playing. Maybe that will light a fire under some *****. Who knows, this isn't really a big deal though.

People have different reasons for these desires. Mine, when I do go hunting, which is rare, is food.
