This is not news, he has already said all the game plans get passed by him as they did with Garrett.
The question I had when this first came out was is this standard in the NFL, what other GM's "approve" the game plan from their HC's? Do they even ask for them?
You thought this tool was kidding about "jocks to socks", didn't you?
The level of involvement of the Joneses in the day to day, usually regarded as the HC's territory, is unknown except with Johnson and Parcells, the only two times this has actually looked like a real football team.
The first time this reared it's really ugly head was that DB we had as a FA for almost a season before he moved on to another team. He said he had never been with any team that held up the team meetings because the owner and his son were running late. Guess their priorities are suspect?
Camp Cupcake counselor, Wade Phillips, asked to increase fines for players being late to even missing meetings and was not only denied by this enabling buffoon but he issues "media passes" for the stars so they can fulfill their first requirement, priming the marketing and promotion pump. Have you ever heard of anything like this with any sports organization?
If this is a revelation to you, I hope that was warm sand you had your head in about the management of this team. This is the Cluster of the NFL and the main reason the team struggles. These aren't veterans used to working for mismanaged companies and circumventing the problems, management, these are inexperienced young men that don't know how a real team operates until they go to one.
