La Canfora: Jerry Jones Losing Credibility, Influence With Owners

[KingintheNorth]

Jerry's "power" with other owners has always been about fear, not respect.

He's a powerful man who is used to getting his way and doesn't know how to act the few times in life he doesn't get his way.

Jerry Jones losing credibility, influence with owners over recent tirades
One source suggests Jones has 'at best' three owners behind him in his battle with Roger Goodell

• by Jason La Canfora

Jerry Jones has long been painted as one of the most powerful men in sports. He has achieved a significant cache within the NFL in making the Cowboys one of the most valued commodities in all of global sports, but that is quickly eroding, according to numerous league and ownership sources. Jones' recent outbursts in public and in private, and his attacks on commissioner Roger Goodell, are being seen by his peers as a direct reaction to his anger of Ezekiel Elliott's six-game suspension, the sources said, and are diminishing his respect and influence among other owners.

Jones' threat last week to potentially sue the league and other owners over Goodell getting a new contract extension -- considered a foregone conclusion in league circles since the spring, when all 32 owners empowered the Compensation Committee to negotiate a deal without further approval required -- has angered fellow owners and increasingly isolated Jones. The sources suggest that "at best" Jones has maybe three other owners in his corner that Goodell should go, but is nowhere close to the 24 votes required to derail a process that is in essence already completed (pending just a formal signing and announcement, sources said).

In fairness............... La Canfora is one of the worst and his "sources" are notoriously wrong.

Thatta guy.

I bet he's a real scumbag, lowlife, eh? Go Cowboys.

He's an 80's Skins homer. Funny thing is he basically got ran off by the Skins because of his vendetta with Snyder.

All I ask for is accuracy in reporting and being accountable for that accuracy. Guys like LaCanfora, Werder, Schefter, etc....that just doesn't happen.

And in particular, if that source is coming from the commissioner or one of his cronies, people like LaCanfora and Peter King will run with it just so they can get access to Goodell in the future.

Jerry is only concerned with the Cowboys interest . As usual Jerry is self serving and a potential cancer to the league.

This is what needs to happen to get some changes made. This dude is not worth 50 million a year plus a private jet for life.

You’re a cancer to the board so if we have to deal with you, you’ll have to deal with him. Fair trade

Plus, well, he fired Saint Tom.

 

[Sarge]

Here’s to bringing down Jerry!!
He’s getting out of control.

Rumors are it was part of the deal when he bought the team that he had to fire Tom

 

[Diehardblues]

Let’s hope this ends in a suspension or at least fines like when he spoke out on equal TV revenue sharing.

How special would it be for Cowboys Football if Jerry wasn’t allowed at AT&T or The Star?

Surely the NFL won’t help our football operations that much. That would earn Goodells lifetime jet.

This poster is a clown @Sarge just take a gander at his posting history. Trolls gonna Troll

 

[Risen Star]

As long as the policy for domestic violence is #HerTruth opposition to Goodell will grow as teams experience their own star player suspended for no valid reason.

It's just not going to happen as quickly as we'd all like it to.

Wouldn’t it be great if you got a lifetime ban from our beloved board? That would awesome!!!

 

[rags747]

FAKE NEWS, that is all...

 

[Diehardblues]

Explain to me why Cowboy fans support Jerry as our GM running football operations .

I’ve never known any Cowboy fans who do support this so I’d be curious as to why you wouldn’t be rooting for him going down???

 

[links18]

Jerry is heading for Al Davis quickly. Maybe he will move the team to Oakland?

I am well aware of him. Thanks.

Yes, the gazillions of dollars that Jerry has made the league and questioning why we are paying a dopey commissioner $200 million and a jet for life...that's the problem the league is facing.

Don’t think Jerry has ever let what people think of him get in the way of counting all his money.

Jerry's proven that he doesn't care what we think of him so I doubt he cares about these bozos.
