he said parcells wasn't ish, buth he loves him. I didn't take that as a knock.


He said it was a miracle tony saw the field, that tebow would never get a chance, so he wouldn't draft him.

That he can't put the guys on the field so why would he draft tebow? The coaches won't play him.

That was what he meant.

I speak drunk texan very well.

Yeah, he might have meant that he hired Parcells to get the team's reputation back, but the "He's not worth a " almost sounded like he actually liked him, like something you'd say razzing one of your buddies.

I think there were 4 QBs going into camp, if i remember, and was it with QC going that a roster space was available?

Almost didn't get him. The Shanahan offered him twice what Dallas was and Payton wanted him to QB the Aints.

that's how I took it, if anything it was an affirmation of how much Jerry likes Bill.

Now you know why Jimmy took a powder. Thank you, Bill, for your unwitting role in securing us a new stadium.

I think another team offered him more money as an UDFA, but Payton convinced him to come to Dallas.

That and the fact that Payton and the Saints wanted him.

Jerry Jones: Romo was a miracle.

Other guy: It was a miracle, wasn't it?

JJ: He almost never got in, and he almost was gone. Tebow would never…

Different other guy: What if you were the Jaguars or — would you just, just draft him and sell (bleep) jerseys?

JJ: That's the only reason I brought in Bill Parcells.

[Laughter]

JJ: [Inaudible. Sounds a little like, "Sell mammoth (bleep) rake," whatever that means.]

JJ: Bill's not worth a (bleep). I love him.

Different other guy: I know you do.

JJ: Not worth a (bleep), but I wanted — they were on my (bleep) so bad. J's gotta have a yes man. So to get this (bleep) stadium, I need to bring his (bleep) in.

Different other guy: What, you, you wouldn't take Tebow in the third round?

JJ: Why? He'd never get on the field. I can't get him out there.

[Laughter]

JJ: I can't get him out there.

I took it as if we almost lost Romo Once we already had him due to not playing him earlier, maybe because of BP. But you guys are probably right.
