Additionally, I'm going to take this further! Now it's going to put the person who asked the question in a tough spot. He may really want to criticise what we can all see needs to be pointed out. Sometimes, you have to highlight where the problems on the team are for them to be fixed. Part of being a fan is knowing where the flaws are so we can understand what needs fixing. In the media, the person asking the questions needs to be able to tell Jerry where we all see the problems are. Now, he had his job questioned for doing what probably every Cowboys fan was wanting to know from Jerry.
This leads him, someone who is probably not making a huge amount of money, to have to choose whether to kiss Jerry's tail or do what needs to be done to do his job. It's further why I am DISGUSTED with Jerry. I hope people now see how slimy Jerry is. For him to do that to a media person who makes a fraction of what he makes who's trying to do his job, PATHETIC AND REVOLTING.
Shannon said that he wouldn't shed a tear if we never make another playoff for the remainder of the time Jerry is the owner as a result of what Jerry did. I always want us to make the playoffs and win. That said, as I stated in one of my threads yesterday, this team probably has at least 2-4 years needed to rebuild (assuming it's done right) to even be close to championship caliber. it may not even be something that Shannon hopes happens. Jerry is 82. His response today reeks of a man who knows the grim reaper is drawing closer and is in a corner. He probably knows he hasn't got long left. And he probably realises that, even if he went into a full rebuild, he may not be alive to see its fulfillment.
So, it begs another question in my mind. Is Jerry trying to make things so bad to the point where Stephen has no chance of rebuilding this team? Look at where the Raiders are now! Look what Al Davis (Jerry's mentor) left Mark with! Is that our future?
