Just For Fun: You Win Lottery and Buy The Cowboys

[OmerV]

The first thing I do is pull Jimmy out of retirement, lol . You be my GM.
I would get Tony Romo to be my defensive coordinator.
Then I would get Kellen Moore as a head coach , and he be the offensive coordinator
I would let them hire their own assistant coaches.
And I would demand intelligence. On the field.

I believe the Kellen Moore hire is the only one you would be able to accomplish

Money talks, I knew someone was going to say that. But money talks. I totally agree with you. I’m in a good mood, I was just having fun with it.

 

[ShortRound]

I'd hire Jerry, give him full control of circumciseing all the mosquitos on my ranch and keeping the squirrel population at bay.

I'd hire Jason Garrett back to give fans a heart attack.

 

[Whirlwin]

once Jerry leaves, they'll be much much more affordable!!

You just bought the team, Jerry is obviously going. He’s the guy you bought it from. lol

 

[big dog cowboy]

Because there won't be as much marketing, not sure that's really Stephens thing, he's a cap guy

You know that makes no sense. The valuation of the Cowboys isn't going down when Jerry leaves.

"I have a ton of experience building teams in Madden and will bring the same philosophy to this great franchise. I also pledge to listen to the opinions of the fans, most notably the Cowboys Zone."

I’m trying to give him a break. It’s the holidays

 

[8FOR!3]

I’ll do it bc it’s a fun little exercise. “I am not an expert on running a football team. But I do excel at evaluating others and I will find the right person who is.”

Clean, short, and precise

 

[McKDaddy]

Announce I'm putting a tribute statue of Jerry out in front of the stadium.
With his head firmly implanted in his lower section.

You can bet that in the crazy instance they might consider selling there would be clauses that you couldn't disparage them in any way, shape or form.

 

[McKDaddy]

I'll send you my resume...I'll turn the haters into homers! Lol

You've been blacklisted!!

 

[big dog cowboy]

What great thoughts.

 

[McKDaddy]

Well .... you might want to discount those who encouraged the signing of a certain QB TWICE. Weed them out & you'd be ok.

Why do you wanna pee in your Cheerios man but first of all I don’t know many lotteries that are giving out $10 billion but the NFL don’t have lotta openings to buy a team and when it comes up for sale then you have to bid on it with a whole bunch of people so the likelihood of winning a lottery for 10 billion then at that same moment having a opening in the NFL to purchase did you say the Dallas Cowboys or an NFL team I didn’t read it too long didn’t read right the irony that’s not gonna happen so anything that’s being discussed here is gonna be the most outlandish trip to the most outer parts of outer space nobody’s ever visited before because it’s not happening. Nobody in here is ever going to own an NFL team because I don’t come up that often and you have to have a **** load of money. Lol

 

[blueblood70]

I honestly don't believe it would be difficult to surpass the last 30 years of playoff failures. Stop trying to be cute and pretending to be the smartest guy in the room. Employ football people and empower them. Build the team around an actual vision and philosophy, instead of always going for the shinny objects. We'd build from the trenches out and use the Shanahan running scheme. I could go on, but this is only frustrating me more.

Not that hard huh? Maybe you don’t pay attention to the rest of the NFL that spent decades and they can’t even win their division 1989 the last time the Cleveland Browns won their division are you serious? I mean go look at all those teams that have been having all these first round picks changing GM’s changing owners and they’re not winning Super Bowls. They are not surpassing anyone you are really need to get a clue don’t many teams ahead of the Dallas Cowboys their top six and win percentage. I’ve been in the playoffs for the last eight seasons. Now go tell me all the new teams getting the championship games because that’s not really happening. Haven’t even won a Super Bowl so this outlandish hypothetical that you would find your way to a $10 billion lottery which doesn’t really. Exist. I don’t remember the lottery for that much but I do know this how often does an NFL team come open for sale even in a hypothetical then you have to bid on it and then you have to win it let alone a Dallas Cowboys but you really think there’s a blueprint for anybody could just run into the NFL enter password the Dallas Cowboys you’re done since 1989 which is three Super Bowl wins there’s only two other teams have done that but oh you mean since the last three Super Bowls but still I think you’re clueless and delusional. All if you think it’s that easy, just a role in by a team and instantly get to the championship game you better look around. Exist I don’t remember lottery for that much but I do know this how often does an NFL team come open for sale even in a hypothetical then you have to bid on it and then you have to win it let alone the Dallas Cowboys but you really think there’s a blueprint there anybody could just run into the NFL and surpass what the Dallas Cowboys are done since 1989 which is three Super Bowl wins there’s only two other teams have done that but oh you mean since the last three Super Bowls but still I think you’re clueless and delusional. All of you think is that easy just a Rollin by a team and instantly get to the championship game you better look around

My Cheerios are definitely dampened

 

[Whirlwin]

I’m not even sure if you’ll win the lottery, If that’s enough money to pay the electric bill, lol

Just for fun, what would you do if you won crazy money in the lottery and you could buy the Dallas Cowboys? What would your opening press conference look like? What actions would you take? To that end, I have always wondered how fun it would be to take over the franchise. Here's what I would do.

My First Conference
"Good afternoon media, fans, family members. The Cowboys have been in Dallas since 1960 and I was born three years later in the Dallas area. My older brother and our dad ensured I was a Cowboys fan since birth and I have enjoyed so many eras of greatness, exciting deep playoff runs, and of course our five championships. In fact, The Dallas Cowboys hold the NFL record for most consecutive winning seasons with 20 from 1966 to 1985. During that time, we reached the playoffs 18 times, won 13 NFC East championships, and reached the Super Bowl five times.

Then the Landry era ended as Jerry Jones bought the team, fired Landry, and hired the great Jimmy Johnson who was the sole architect of a team that won 3 championships in four years.

As a longtime resident of the Dallas area, I am intimately familiar with the hundreds of millions of dollars the local community has invested in the team over the decades as well as our loyal fans worldwide and I want to thank fans everywhere for their support. I do not take this support lightly and as the new owner, I feel a strong obligation to put the best possible team on the field as well as hire the best of the best coaches, scouts, analytics experts, and so on. This franchise has been the benefactor of a tremendously loyal fan base and it is the job of ownership to put winning above all else, no exceptions.

I want to thank Jerry and the Jones family for growing the franchise to the most valuable sports franchise in the world. Jerry's skills as a businessman have created great wealth for the Jones family and his savvy business ideas have greatly enriched the other 31 NFL owners bank accounts with exponential growth.

Taking over as the owner of this great franchise is something I do not take lightly. I remember my pain in watching "The Catch", the losses to Pittsburg in the Super Bowls, the Dez Catch blown call, and many others. Now as the owner, I understand the great challenge that lies ahead in turning around a franchise that has failed to reach the NFC Championship game for almost three decades. But I commit to three pillars of my ownership:

1) Winning will always be my top priority
2) I will hire the best experts in the world and let them do their job without interference
3) We will have accountability from top to bottom which is the foundation of my commitment to winning

It is a privilege to take over as the new owner of the Dallas Cowboys and I look forward to what the future holds for our team. Thank you again to all the fans for your support and let's get to work!"


What about you? What would your press conference look like?

Hire a professional, competent GM and a hard nose HC and get out of their way.

 

[DCwarrior]

Immediately fire the current GM via a scathing and humiliating press conference.

 

[atlantacowboy]

I immediately make myself an integral part of the cheerleader selection process.

 

[morat1959]

The first thing I do is hire a team of attorney and a team of CPA's.
Then I hire the very best GM I can get and tell that GM to hire a coach.
Coach hires coaching staff.
I stay in the luxury box and keep my mouth shut to the media. I stay out of the limelight as much as possible.
I also keep my mouth shut in the draft war room. My coaches and scouts don't need my 2 cents.

No more good ole boy club. If the GM and coaches don’t get the job done….hit the road jack!
