Twitter: Jerry's support is helping Dan Snyder remain an Owner

[plymkr]

Sounds like jerry is being blackmailed but it works out for the best keeping Snyder has n charge over there

What if the "dirt" Snyder has on Jerry is 25 years of being a bad GM. I can see it now. Snyder whips out his "file" on Jerry and it's 25 years of bad trades, draft picks and contracts and he throws it down in the meeting saying, "this is Jerry Jones". Then all the other owners look at each other and start laughing like Snyder is Dr. Evil from Austin Powers asking for a 100 billion trillion dollars.

I bet most owners hate Snyder. But none want to set precident on getting an owner removed. You can find dirt on any one.

Didn’t Snyder say he has dirt on Goodell also?

they all have dirt on each other.

Shows you how influential Jerry is around the league. They need 24 votes. Jerry's but just one of 32 yet if you don't have him you don't have your 24.

The NFL should have removed his father as owner of the Colts too but it never happened.

Too bad the Eagles and Giants are relishing the fact that Jerry is as incompetent as Snyder as well. Their getting two for the price of one.

Does Jerry own any race horses?

[Corso]

He got dirt on everybody

He's the most litigeous and outwardly conniving owner of them all.
He's proven this over decades.

Dude has dirt on everybody he needs dirt on.
Not just owners.
But definitely owners.

And they all know it.

I well imagine Jerry wouldn't favor criticizing Snyder, knowing that he has a good thing going, as is. We've beaten Washington on a fairly regular basis for as long as I can possibly remember. Jerry's also not too free of criticism, himself, seeing as how his reputation with "painted ladies" isn't spotless. Some things are better left alone.

Jerry knows snyder has enuf dirt on him to bury him.

Honor amongst White Collar Crooks.

 

[plymkr]

Well that settles everything. I'm convinced.

As someone on here accurately mentioned the other day, NFL owners are like the mafia. Powerful, exclusive, greedy, secretive, vindictive and petty. Their loyalty to each other is not based on what’s best for the game or its future. It’s based on what’s best for them.

That’s why I side with the players in almost all contract and labor negotiations. The players are gladiators who risk their bodies and physical future and have a very short time to play the game and make the most money in their careers. The owners literally have almost zero risk and can make a fortune year after year forever.

You know, I was just going to say "exactly what has Jerry done with the Cowboys if it weren't for Jimmy Johnson?"

 

[atlantacowboy]

Jerry may support him but he is no longer a power broker/consensus maker among owners as witnessed by the 31-1 defeat he just suffered over Goodells new contract. So, Jerry's support will not be enough to save Snyder.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. The man has made one good decision as a GM since 1989. He hired Jimmy Johnson and got out of his way........... for awhile anyway.

Snyder needs to be and I think eventually will be ousted as an owner. Regardless of whatever dirt he may or may not have on anyone, this will happen. There would be far too much outcry against the NFL and the other owners from the general public to allow him to remain in place. In today's super hyper WOKE society, the things that he has reportedly done, said, tried to do etc.. against minorities and woman will not go unpunished in the court of public opinion.

Perhaps I'm wrong, but generally good NFL owners keep a low profile on exactly what decisions they make for the team, and it seems the smarter ones try to stay out of the limelight because they know they hired the right people for the job and let them do the work. For some reason, Jerry seems to love the limelight.

Al Davis and John Madden come to mind with the raiders as another "dynamic owner / coach combo", but Davis actually had a lot of coaching experience before he became the owner of the Raiders.

And yet if you compare Jerry’s overall accomplishments to Mara and Laurie…

Davis had a legitimate football resume' long before he became an owner. Football was always his life. He was a college scout, an assistant coach in San Diego, and the AFL coach of the year in 1963. He was an offensive innovator. So, when he "meddled" it was coming from a place of knowledge and experience. Jerry was in insurance sales before getting into the oil game. He had nothing to do with the NFL or even college football after graduating from Arkansas.

He is all about the limelight and has spent the past 27 years trying to gain the respect of real football men by building a winner in Dallas. But, all he has accomplished is to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that he has no business running a football team and all the good was coming from Jimmy Joihnson.
