Let's get this Jerry thing right out in the open

If you know me long enough, you'll find that I actually want to LIKE everybody I run across in here... even those who have stepped on my last nerve, if they make an effort to work and play well with others (LOL), I'll happily back off, and give them a chance...

TheProphet seems to want to fit in these days, and has approached me with some talk about the Shenandoah Valley... and we're having a real nice conversation, utterly devoid of the hostility that characterized our earlier exchanges...

I'm not claiming credit for that, mind you, I'd have to be a card carrying jerk to respond with hostility when somebody approaches me in a friendly manner, even if we do have a history of antagonism... I'll still argue with TheProphet when I disagree with him, but I will keep in the back of my mind that he made an effort to deal with me with civility, and hope I'll be able to do the same even when I disagree with him...

As for you being a "numbskull", seems to me that you were just giving back some of what you were getting... that's just human nature...


When I admitted to these mess ups, I figured I'd get pounded in the ground even more by you and others. But I have misjudged you, you're certainly being fair to me. So I would like to be civil as well.:)

Let's find out who knows football and who is a homer! BleuStar-homer

The hate for jones as a GM goes like this....for 10 years he put our team in such a disarray, it took parcells 4 years just to get us out of it! and we are still not there! what did jones do? he only overpaid for one of the biggest busts in recent history...he overpaid for a one year wonder in gurode...he overpaid for brad johnson...who is finished...all jerry does is overpay...he overpaid for rivera,,he was done...he overpaid for henry in my opinion. He hasnt done much but be injured. He overpaid for Roy Williams and now we couldnt get rid of him if we tried! He brought in a player that ran out Parcells! The question is what has he done that has been smart in the last 10 years....and dont get me started on the drafts the last 10 years before parcells got here. Dont get me started on the Galloway trade! Come on man I cant even believe you just made that statement bleustar!?????????????? Do you know anything about football?

So this is what I will say about Jerry. The two things he does consistently.

He latches onto a player, or a theory about a player and nothing gets in his way to stop him from getting him. I.E. Quincy Carter, Tony Dixon. Carver, Ekuban....should I stop now?

He also overpays for mediocre players. Those are the two things he does consistently. If that wins a championship then so be it! LOL....it never will. Bleu Star you need to take out what Bill has done the past 4 years and then look at our team. Dont look at what BP did in talent acquistions and mix it in with the stupid mistakes Jerry has made and say that Jerry is a God.....what a joke...I mean look at all the mistakes Jerry made the past 4 years....Wiley, Price, Anthony Thomas, TO...the list goes on. The thing about it is this. Almost everything that Jerry does individually from a GM standpoint with no help he screws up. You need to face that. He wants to know what to do but he just doesnt and that's the truth. I wish it wasnt so but it is. The only thing he has done right in the past 4 years is hire Parcells and semi-get out of the way.


I don't have a problem with your points, but you forgot to mention he makes $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
And big MONEY. He got T.O so we could;d buy his shirts and put Fanny's in the stadium, Who in your opinion are the 5 top GM's in the NFL? can I hear your list.

ROTFLMAO... we may have more in common than either of us realizes...

What makes this board tough for me is I frequent other boards where you can get away with a LOT more than you can in here... and sometimes, I just kinda lose sight of which board I'm on...

Other times, I'm just in a foul mood, generally because of stuff completely unrelated to this board, and sound off without thinking at all...

So you do your best, but don't feel that you can't return fire if you're being insulted... just be careful how you choose your words, and you can return fire while remaining within the rules...

You can't run around lettin' the likes of me abuse you... :D

Welcome to passive-aggressive night at Cowboyszone. I'll show you to your seats.

New England has one of the best philosophies in football. The front office and coaching staff has been very consistent under owner Robert Kraft. They have a versatile 3-4 defense and a potent offense with a superb QB leading the attack.

They have stuck to it for years and their recent success has been very attractive to free agents shopping the football market. For that purpose, the players buy into it and tow the company line willingly.

I hope Dallas can find that kind of success in the near future.


Really and little Bill did so well in Cleavland, thanks for cutting Berni Kosar,

Hey there chicken little. I see you're at it again. Hey here's an idea. Let's try to keep the board halfway clean. Instead of creating a new post every time you want to call someone out and flex your cyber manchest why don't you just reply to the threads and posts that you read. Here. I'll help you again. Keep it clean CL. :rolleyes:

jimmy was handicapped with marino...if he could have gotten a real qb things would have been different down there

People in Miami still think he is the greatest QB. I hate that bogus excuse.
 
Since I've been avoiding this thread, let me get my 1 post in to say, too bad.. Jerry isn't going anywhere, so deal with it.

Hey, it's entirely possible that I misjudged you, as well... other posters, when confronted with such "mess ups", have either tried to bluster their way through, or ignored the mess, moving on to their next argument...

But you didn't do that... you showed character, and I can't help but respect that... a man will mess up, I think it's in his DNA; a man of weak character will do everything he can to avoid accepting responsibility for his actions, a man of strong character will do more or less what you did...

So yeah, I think I probably ought to make more of an effort to be civil to you, to be fair to you, as well...

You understand that doesn't mean I suddenly agree with you about our earlier arguments... LOL...

So, you're going to be our waiter for the evening, Shiloh??

Major props to anybody who recognizes what movie THAT line came from... it's rather obscure, but quite funny...

Awwwww.. Group hug now...

:grouphug:

I'll settle for a manly handshake, if it's all the same to you... I don't even much like huggin' my relatives... :D
 
bbgun;1415520 said:
Because Jerry said that every player on the squad was the result of a joint decision. If Bill had complete control over personnel as alleged, a certain disruptive wide receiver never would have landed at DFW.

I didn't read the whole thread, but where was this alleged?? I thought this thread was talking about all things Jerry... Jerry has his hand in everything, Jerry forced players on Bill, yada yada yada.

Everyone knows BILL didn't have complete control. Jerry would never give that up. But the joint decision stuff is really what seemed to be going on... see Marcus Coleman, Jason Ferguson, Richie Anderson, Vinny, both Glenns, etc.

And another clue, since nobody's bitten yet... that movie also had a line I've never heard in another movie:

"My grandma drank my pot"... :D

you gotta remember - facts are about as pertinant to bbboy as a kennedy on an ethics committee. the JJMG (jerry jones must go) club knows no common sense, they allow no leeway, jones is the reason for our destruction but didn't have anything to do with our success and blah blah blah. there's no "middle ground" to this crowd, only an agenda that's just as annoying as a kennedy lobbing morality.

some people are open to conversation - well, the bulk of the board is. even silverbear back off when people show some form of being reasonable (lord knows he came after me with a vengence for awhile till we found our own middle ground) but if you're not willing to be reasonable and consider options, alternatives or worse yet - that jones could be doing something *RIGHT* then talking to bbboy will likely only result in frutration mostly because most people *can be* reasonable.

he and his crowd can't. they'd rather put a nail gun through their own privates before giving jerry jones credit.

looking for logic in such hatred is just a waste of time. : )

found it but i've never seen it, so i'll let you keep looking. : )

If you've never seen it, do so at your earliest opportunity... it was on one of the movie channels a week or so back, and the nephew was watching it, so I sat down and watched it too... it's a B movie all the way, but really, really funny...
