Long but interesting article showing insight on why some owners are balking at Jones and why they are pretty stupid IMO to do so considering what he has accomplished thus far.
Jones’s eagerness to market and commodify every available inch of the NFL experience may have rankled traditionalist owners like Rooney, who hailed from dynastic families tethered to the league’s founding era. But there would be no stopping Jones when it came to taking the NFL where he was determined to take it. From his very first day as owner, when he unceremoniously fired Tom Landry—the only head coach the Cowboys had ever known—Jones was marking his territory. He was going to do things his way. And was going to make damn certain the rest of the league would, too. It’s been More Jerry Jones ever since.
