After the debacle that was the Packers loss earlier this year, Jerry proclaimed that he was " ALL IN ".
He then proceeded to do mostly nothing in free agency, while we had a ton of free agents leave.
He then drug his feet most of the off season before signing CD to a fair market value contract.
The cherry on top of this crapfest of an off season was to give a good regular season QB the largest average salary contract in NFL history.
I have said this until I am blue in the face, this team is never having meaningful success until Jerry and and son are no longer in their current front office positions.
The NFL is a very competitive league. We are at a severe competitive disadvantage having two amateurs at the two most important front office positions.
No other NFL team has the lack of accountability in the front office that the Cowboys have.
This dysfunctional set up filters down to the coaches and players.
This is why the team has no heart and folds like a cheap suit the moment they get punched in the mouth.
I am at my limit after 49 years of giving this team my undying loyalty.
So I am stepping back and limiting my involvement with this team.
I am no longer having my Sundays revolve around this teams schedule.
If they are on local TV fine, I will watch. No more trips to the sports bars.
No more rearranging my families plans to accommodate watching games.
Until Jerry gets serious enough about winning to make meaningful changes thats gonna be my strategy.
I am beyond fed up with this poorly run excuse of a football team where the mantra seems to be just staying relevant.
As a side note, I really appreciate the Cowboys Zone. The banter and gameday game threads has kept me more involved with the team
that I otherwise would be.
Really have enjoyed the friendships made here.
You will see me some, but I will not be posting as much as in times past.
All the best, and hopefully this team will have better days ahead.
