Twitter: Jerry Jones: Has done his best job as GM the last few years

[Fansince64]

This is what a semi-functional alcoholic who's lied himself into an alternative reality sounds like.

One of the absolute best and most succinct quotes describing JJ I've ever read!!! Kudos to you.

This is one of the funniest threads in quite a while. Thanks all!

I've never heard the term used before but I assume he's referring to the imminent salary cap implosion that is going to hit this team within the next two years. From what I hear we are $31 million over for next year but can get under with some restructuring. The year after that though we are facing a cap crisis of biblical proportions that may be impossible to fix without gutting the roster. We shall I guess

Depending how things progress from here, that may not be a bad thing.

these are dark days.

this team has virtually no hope with him as GM, and I've almost given up on them.

how can people continue to endorse this terrible product on the field by putting money into his pocket? It's gotta change here pretty soon. The cowboys are a running joke among NFL fans.

Are we still 5-5 because this sounds pretty bad.

 

[TwoDeep3]

15-20 more years? Well I guess we all have something in common with Sam Hurd now

Freakin' Brilliant!!!!!

 

[EPL0c0]

He trolling y'all... lol

I hope so because as a Cowboys fan....reading this is SO frickin' depressing. If he honestly believes it, I'm also a bit scared.

this is jerry. this is the cowboys. i can't even say the past 16 seasons have been up to mediocre.

insanity: doing the same thing over and over again, yet expecting different results.

keeping a coach that has literally made no improvement since he stepped in: insane

draft defense for 3-4, invest hundreds of millions, then switch to 4-3: insane

hire 73 artifact defensive coordinator with washed up scheme: insane

hire OC before HC: insane

sign unproved/old players to ridiculously high contracts: insane

keeping the same GM with a 131-131 record over 16 seasons: insane?

Yeah, he is insane...insanely rich! I wish I was that insane.

He may not know how to run a football team, but he is definitely not insane. Maybe us Cowboy fans are the insane ones? Ever think about that? If not for us, he would not be one of the wealthy's men on the planet.

The timing of it seems a little cruel considering this is the 50th anniversary of Dallas taking down a family and it's power.

I'm going to hell for what I think and wish about Jerry Jones.

For some reason our fan base thinks 0/16 = .500. I wonder how Texas ranks nationally in math SAT scores.

 

[Jerryrage]

I think he gave Romo all that money because he felt so bad.. lol

 

[mrmojo]

Did Jerry really say that about himself... when I read the title I thought someone else had....hilarious. Bigger ego Jerry or .....put name here.

 

[Redball Express]

Oh man. What is he using to evaluate himself?

I see blunder after blunder after blunder

He's using the Al Davis General Manager Rating System.

It's determining factors are how many facelifts have you had..

..multiplied by the number of years since you last won a SB

..divided by the number of coaches you have hired after your last SB..

Bingo.

NFL GM of the Year Award.

In his own mind.

Has Jones ever won that honor..?

Seriously ?

I don't ever even remember him being in the running.

Anyone ?

 

[BoysFan4ever]

I cannot imagine any other NFL team hiring Jerry as anything but a marketing guy. He'd have virtually no chance getting a GM job anywhere else. But he's old & pickling by the day. He says idiotic things because of that.

Jerry jones trying to upstage The JFK assassination? You have to be kidding me.

 

[DOUBLE WING]

Not sure what all the uproar is about. When you consider how bad we have been when Jerry had full control (any years outside of Jimmy and Parcells), you would have to admit this is probably the best job he's ever done.

That's not saying much, because we're still mediocre and stuck in neutral, but compared to his 5-11 seasons, Jerry isn't exactly lying. Not something I would go bragging about, but he's not lying.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

With 'best work' in recent years, Jerry Jones hopes to be GM for 15-20 more
Oh my god! Holy S! I'am going to be dead before we see another Super Bowl!!!

I'm afraid I will be too.
