Jimmy J and Bill P

[cowboybish]

These two would never let players say anything via internet or twitter etc. about the team. Micah “Big Mouth” Parsons would be shut down or sat down.

No one can control what players say on social media. With a salary cap you can’t just threaten to cut players or bench them to prevent them from free speech and expressing themselves online. It’s a lot different these days.

Yep. BB used to be able to keep his guys under control through a culture he built with an older group of vets that were able to basically set the tone and expectations of the players in that locker room. Do Your Job wasn't just a saying it was almost cult-like mantra there. Now that the old guard is gone you saw things start to fall apart around him there. Oh, and Tom Brady leaving.

Yeah, Jimmy only allowed the White House to operate that caused the demise of several players.

Jimmy was a bully to weaker players. He cut Curvin Richards but do you honestly think he would have cut Emmitt Smith? Jimmy had different rules for different players and would today, if he were coaching anywhere.

Jimmy would send messages. No need to cut an Emmitt Smith or a Troy Aikman, or even Michael Irvin. But if you're a fringe player, and you're fumbling, constantly missing assignments, committing penalties, or sleeping in meetings.........you're sacrificed for the others doing the same, to see. An accountability message.

yeah but people are saying they want Jimmy to coach here, wrong era, HE would go before they went!! lol

 

[Big_D]

It was a different world back then. Social media is very much a part of every day life and no coach could police it at this point. Today’s player doesn’t really respond to that in your face or my way or the highway style of coaching. Those days are long gone and never coming back.

Tom Landry - let Hollywood Henderson do drugs on sideline and ignored off field crimes.
Bill Parcells - let Lawrence Taylor do drugs on sideline and ignore off field crimes.
Jimmy Johnson - let players have a drug and prostitute rape clubhouse that was raided buy the police.

Cowboy fans ...... man those coaches were strict guys that would not let players get away with anything.



Todays coaches - lets players say mean and dumb stuff on internet.

Cowboy fans - these coaches are weak and have no control over players.

They were just having a little fun back then!

Rape? Seems maybe too lenient.

These threads show why the Cowboys have lowest I.Q. of any fanbase.

Yes they would.

Every team has different rules for different players. You aren’t benching your QB for being late to a meeting but you might a player you have a solid replacement for. That’s just the way most things in life works

There is no protection for “free speech” or the 1st amendment if representing the business or in this case the Cowboys. Teams can absolutely control the messaging on social media if they chose to.

But I do agree that teams are allowing this so it would be hard to put the genie back in the bottle.

I agree and I will not argue against the results Jimmy got. I was just saying that Jimmy would have different rules for Parsons which means he would still be on twitter.
