Jerry on fan apathy and why fans should have confidence that the team can win a Super Bowl

I'm with @Hardline

From the tweet:

“Well let me just say this. I think our fan base is frustrated. And I think they want to beat a Green Bay and I think they want to beat the next one that comes up. Now we were the second seed in the whole NFC and we were as healthy as any club that has been in the playoffs in many years. Not just the Cowboys, any club. We were healthy. We should have gone further. And we had a quarterback that arguably was the Most Valuable Player in the league last year. We should have gone further.

Jones' fan frustration checklist:

1. Not beating Green Bay
2. Not advancing in the playoffs
3. Team being #2 in the NFC for nothing
4. No excuse for injuries
5. Losing despite having an ‘MVP’ type quarterback
   

At no time does he stop-and-state fans are frustrated with HIM too.

Really???
28 years, we can't get past the divisional round, and things are gonna get better?
I don't think so.....

Much of what he said is what finally broke me after all this time.

I fully understand that being good is not enough to win. You must catch many breaks along the way as well.

Last year they were basically handed the two seed unexpectedly, and Diggs aside, were about as healthy as you could ask for…and they still blew it.

I don’t mean ‘not winning a championship’ type of blew it….I mean setting yet another futility record. First 2/7 loser after blowing two one seeds prior.

I’m about sure there’s some sort of curse attached to this team. Not sure who may be responsible.

Talk about weird…an 81 year old out of touch billionaire telling his team’s fan base how they really feel. He might as well have said, “Let them eat cake.”

He looks increasingly old, out of touch and completely surrounded by suck ups and sycophants who tell him exactly what he wants to hear.

The trophy for Timing Of Season Tickets is the most coveted in all of sports.

Simple misunderstanding. Jerry measures apathy in not spending time & money on them. He completely overlooked the apathy that this organization can actually get further.

 

[Montanalo]

"we are eons ahead of other clubs when it comes to our ticket renewal, season tickets, timing of season tickets. When you look at television and you look at the teams that they watch on tv, we’re going away number one"

And, this attitude (true be told, is likely the same view I might have if I owned the Cowboys) is at the core of the Cowboy's problem... they make money hand-over-fist without sniffing the SB.

Why the facepalm?

You control whether or not you can make polls not me.

[ArtClink]

Well, tickets are cheaper this season in the ticket exchange apps so there's obviously less demand than last year. He'll realize this when he sees empty seats at some point during the season.

Actually those empty seats will be filled w opposing fans and that continues to get worse.

@Coogiguy03

Damn is that what it's called, never knew that

 

[zekecowboy]

Can’t wait for @rambo2 to spin this and say Jerry wants to win. Lol

Jerry wants to be number one on ticket sales and merchandise sales. It's rather obvious. The team moves this offseason were pathetic.

 

[Ranching]

I want to make a poll but @big dog cowboy won't let me

It's about time they put a muzzle on you!

 

[Ranching]

I'm no longer apathetic. I've reached the indifferent level.

That's where I am.. its more enjoyable that way

 

[kskboys]

Jerry, YOU are the reason fans are apathetic.

Honestly, you just cannot be this dumb.

He is that arrogant.

 

[kskboys]

Well from his point of view, all of what he points out says to him he and his boy are doing a great job! (he also thinks this makes him a great GM)
It is just a mystery why they cant get past the div round, and some years the wc round.

To him it is a mystery lol.

And he does want to win, he just doesnt know how.

Why do you keep saying this when he's gone out of his way to prove it's not true?

 

[kskboys]

I'm no longer apathetic. I've reached the indifferent level.

I go back and forth between the two!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[gtb1943]

I go between apathy and slow burn
