Jerry and the Hall

[CCBoy]

I don't think there's a waiting period. Unless I missed one, there's only 12 owners in the HOF. Not a very big group.

Owners in HOF

Charles Bidwell
Al Davis
Edward DeBartolo
George Halas
Lamar Hunt
Tim Mara
Willington Mara
George Preston Marshall
Dan Reeves
Art Rooney
Dan Rooney
Ralph Wilson

Thanks for the work...

 

[Gameover]

Who cares.

Only those who wore a jock should eligible for any hof.

My opinion

 

[Swanny]

Jerry will forever be completely defined by Shante Carver, Ebenezer Ekuban, Kavika Pittman, and Greg Ellis over Randy Moss.

And I can keep going if you like.

You're preaching to the choir. I agree he's a terrible GM.
He will forever be defined as a man who showed the NFL how to make some serious coin. And he will forever be remembered as a terrible GM who's head is bigger than anyones ever has been.

Now, let's see who has the most Super Bowl victories, since Jerry Jones became owner of the Dallas Cowboys -

4-New England
3-NY Giants
3-Denver
3-Dallas
2-Green Bay
2-Pittsburgh
2-San Francisco
2-Baltimore Ravens
1-Washington
1-St.. Louis Rams
1-Tampa Bay
1-Indianapolis
1-New Orleans
1-Seattle

The only team to have more Super Bowl wins since Jerry has owned the Dallas, is New England with 4 Lombardis.

Dallas is tied with NY Giants, and Denver for second, with 3 Lombardis.

Just for the record involving trophies while Jerry Jones was owner...He was Jerry even then.

Care to add some facts to your brag?

Pre-internet during Clinton's first term. Zeke Elliott wasn't born. Romo was rooting for Farve in 8th grade.

And entirely the work of Jimmy.

Ever been to a peaceful march in Georgia when the dogs were let loose?

How about the assassination of President Kennedy, did you follow the investigation?

Then Water Gate...did you see the Senate investigation led by Senator Baker from Tennessee?

Know Simon and Garfunkle, Moody Blues, and drug losses of Jimi Hendricks and Janice Joplin?

NO, huh? Then don't feign intimate knowledge of when Jerry took ownership of the Cowboys and how things really went down then...

Just so the foundation of America's Team isn't really lost...

SUPER BOWL SAVVY

Most Super Bowl appearances by a head coach or assistant coach in NFL History
Bill Belichick 9 (Six as a head coach)
Dan Reeves 7 (Four as a head coach)
Don Shula 6 (Six as a head coach)
Chuck Noll 5 (Four as a head coach)
*Tom Landry 5 (Five as a head coach)
Marv Levy 5 (Four as a head coach)

 

[CCBoy]

I selected a 10 win season or better as an indicator, because very rarely does a 10 win team not enter the playoffs. That is a general indicator of an above average team...

Since Jerry Jones has purchased the Dallas Cowboys, this is the total 10-win season leaders in the entire NFL are:


New England 17-4 Lombardis
Philadelphia 16
Green Bay 16
Pittsburgh 15
Indianapolis 14
Denver 13-3 Lombardis
Kansas City 11
Dallas 11 - *(3 of which were with Jimmy Johnson)-3 Lombardis
NY Giants 10-3 Lombardis

Now with 32 NFL teams, that firmly places Dallas winning record, (above average) in the top 1/4th of the NFL...

Care to add some facts to your brag?

Facts? It's an opinion. An opinion needs no facts. And I dot get what facts you'd be looking for? You want facts as to why I think he's an awful GM? Or do you want facts showing how he has shown the NFL how to make money? Both are very easy to come up with.

 

[Section446]

He'll get in, he's too chummy with everyone that matters, and has the resume to make it happen.

 

[Nav22]

If anybody goes in will be when Bill Parcells was buying the groceries.

Parcells wanted Marcus Spears at #11. Jerry overruled him and took DeMarcus Ware.

Jerry also signed T.O., another future HOFer, when Parcells wanted nothing to do with him.

The winds are spinning an ugly tale right now. The once-shunned Eddie DeBartolo was enshrined into the Hall of Fame last weekend, and now Jerry Jones is being bandied about as next on the list.

Lord, help me. As if two decades in a football vacuum wasn't enough to endure, I may have to watch this Jed Clampett in Brooks Brothers give a Hall of Fame speech? Do teleprompters transcribe bumpkin?

The aftermath could be ugly. Such a stamp of validation will only encourage the same frivolity, irresponsibility, and self-promoting football ignorance that this franchise is desperately trying to grow out of. Somewhere, the Maras are laughing under their breath. Scheming *******s.

Jerry honestly believes we care about the $2 billion value of the franchise. He thinks pretty stadjums are the same as Super Bowls. He thinks we give a rat's rip about the Sky Mirror. He thinks we fist-pump when he finds a new sucker to sponsor the bimbo dancers. Here lately, he thinks we're all about this completely unnecessary gaudy practice field 45 minutes away from Jean's Art Museum.

Who wouldn't trade Jerry's shrines for 20 years of good football at the Texas Stadium? Nobody.

Listen, Jerry, nobody cares about your erector set collection outside of those tucked firmly in your last will and testament. You measure yourself in peripherals because there's nothing else to measure. You're a hollow soul that shredded the statesman-like respect and distinction that once defined the Dallas Cowboys.

A 23-year-old with an MBA has no recollection of the Cowboys playing in an NFC Championship game. None. He and his friends must wonder what all the fuss is about. They must wonder why we're so obsessed with a franchise dripping in constant controversy, embarrassment, empty promises, and haughtiness. They laugh at P.T. Jerry and his travelling band of gypsies, tramps, and thieves.

I honestly don't know how anyone who can't remember Tom Landry would choose his team. I still love it....but I'm not particularly proud to say so sometimes. I love Jason Garrett for trying so hard to restore its former image. God help that man.

The fact is, the Cowboys are tied with the Lions in futility the past 20 years. Each has won two lousy playoff games in that tenure, fewer than even the lowly Commanders. Most embarrassing is how many times Jerry has uttered "Super Bowl" to every camera and microphone he could find throughout. You'd think Dallas had won 15 championships since the internet explosion. Nope. None.

Jerry clings to those three Super Bowls in complete delusion. Habitual liars can convince themselves of anything, and Jerry must think he quarterbacked those teams by now. He had less to with it than Jimmy's hairdresser-turned-wife, Rhonda, and that's not a stretch. He was a bystander when it came to football, period.

True, he's made a ton of money for the league. Other owners have reaped willingly from it. They'll probably put him in on that fact alone, probably just to stick it to us. Such an ego stroke would cement the delusion, and I fear Jerry would don the Darth Vader mask for good. God help Stephen, too.

Just imagine. Jerry in the Hall of Fame. While Jimmy, Drew, Harvey, Too Tall, and so many others more deserving.....wait.

Football blasphemy.

Post of the year!!!!!!!!! It will be hard to top this direct, call it like it is....yet very insightful observations. There will be plenty who will call you whining, or crying, or spoiled....but you will have some who see EXACTLY what you see. That watch football for the love of the sport. And don't even notice the dancers, panty shops, gourmet meals and money Jerry is piling up. And I am not jealous of Jerrys accomplishments. But they do NOTHING for me. I like football. And you don't have to win the Super Bowl every year to satisfy me as a fan. But the drought we are enduring as a team getting past the divisional round of the playoffs is mind numbing. And it's even more glaring when Jerry leads us to believe every year we are on the brink of something special.

 

[NoLuv4Jerry]

An obvious bias against Jerry is showing...

No doubt about Jason Witten. DeMarcus Ware? Dez Bryant? How about three offensive linemen presently on the roster? Tony Romo? Yea, Jerry deserves in as well...

Demarcus Ware is more of a lock than Jason Witten. Especially when you consider the position he plays

And there's no excuse for it. We've had a franchise QB since 2006. Jerry's biggest legacy is wasting Romo's career.

 

[Super_Kazuya]

Depends on who you ask. Bill Barnwell recently estimated Ware's chances to be 98% and Witten's to be 95%. Fox Sports ran a feature in February listing 15 Hall of Fame locks that included Witten but not Ware. I think the general consensus is that they both have become locks.

 

[CCBoy]

Demarcus Ware is more of a lock than Jason Witten. Especially when you consider the position he plays

Oh, I disagree...for the Hall of Fame, it goes on merit of position played. Jason is one of the two very top tight ends to have played the game. That at least is always up for a discussion...
