Also, you don't have speakers at work.

I am touched you remembered.

It's not loading for me, either, or I'd give you the quick rundown. I'll I know is it suggests 'Jimmy Johnson doesn't think bad calls should be blamed for losses.'
Thank you.

Was that $8.99 info

American dollars? No.

Hopefully, the fact that CLE failed with the guy trying many of the things the Cowboys likely would have tried means something. I really don't want the Manziel circus in town with all the other circuses we've got going on. How can we even enjoy the Hardy sideshow or the Tony Romo debacle when we're worried about what our backup backup QB did over the weekend when he got crunk again.

Basically said a call can cost you a game. He lost the National Championship to Notre Dame on a bad fumble call. He told the team if you were good enough one call or refs wont matter. Said that people accused him of running up the score but he wanted to ensure he had a big enough lead to weather uncontrollable factors

Twenty-seven NFL teams went into the 2015 season with a draft pick at quarterback. The Cowboys were not one of them. Eighteen teams went into the season with a draft pick on the bench and in the pipeline at some stage of development at the quarterback position. The Cowboys were not one of them.

And I'd only give you a bucket of spit for one or two of them.

If it's about drafting and developing quarterbacks, the NFL is woefully inept and doing either. Most of them actually make Brandon Weeden look like a prize.

Jerry behaving this way should not be a surprise to anyone.

As a matter of fact, I can think of another institution that meets on Sundays that is predicated on people being this gullible/faithful/stupid and it has tons of followers that behave the same way.
nfl fans? or fantasy football fans? ;)

I just wanted an excuse to say 'got crunk,' really. I don't even know if Manziel gets crunk, honestly, it just sounds like something he'd do if he ever came here, doesn't it?

I loved Johnny Football at A&M and I'll admit that when it he plays in the NFL I usually try to tune in but he CAN'T play here in Dallas. Can you imagine the circus that would attract? I've had enough about Krakens, monkeys and stealing underwear. Anytime Johnny Football had a drink at a Chilis, it would cause a global nuclear meltdown in the media with Ed Werder standing in front of grilled fajitas as he reports on the circumstances. No thanks.

This is coming from a guy who wanted the Cowboys to draft JF in the first place. I can admit I'm wrong.

He will be in dallas next year.

That's about the only reasonable way to look at it. The referees are the margin for error. Depending on the crew, that margin can be larger some times than it is at others. You gotta win convincingly enough that the margin doesn't matter.

yeah, I miss Jimmy too...


Jimmy Johnson A Football Life was on NFLN again last night. I tuned in briefly when they were talking about the Walker trade. Jerry couldn't help himself:

"well, yeah Jimmy was in the football business and certainly he knew what a football player looked like...but my background was the trading business..."

what an absolute clown

My take from this is those that expect the Cowboys to draft a qb in the first round are going to be disappointed
