Dear Jerry,
I've been a Cowboy fan for 25+ years, and I've witnessed three world championships (the other two I was too young to remember, the first Cowboys may have been the day I was conceived). The ones I can remember were the ones on your watch.
You've done alot for this organization, building a superb new home for the 'Boys, clearly attempting to field a competitive football team each year- and there have been some hard times, true. You've made some questionable personnel decisions, you've irritated fans, you've insisted on remaining GM and truth be told, you have every right to.
I believe you turn 70 next year and have begun the turning the keys over to Stephen to run the organization soon. I would like you to do one thing before you do, and that is do NOT stop being yourself, especially now.
None of us are on this earth for long, next year is next year and we don't know for absolute certainty we will see tomorrow. I like this current batch of Dallas Cowboys- Romo, Witten, James, Ware, Spears, FJones, Bryant- I like them alot. Underachieving? Somewhat. Talented? Definitely. I think with Jason in place we will get more heart out of this team than we know.
We are closer than people think. This is the one time if I were to meet you face to face, I would advise you to be yourself and trust your instincts and to hell with everyone, the salary cap, the media- everyone. With Romo, Ware, Witten, Austin etc in place for years, we WILL be competitive cash strapped or not.
Asomugha is a terrific, skilled athlete and extremely high character. He IS a difference making football player. He is healthy, and I see alot of Charles Woodson in him- a smart player that can transition and be tremendous even when his physical abilities start to wane.
Jerry- if you want Nnamdi, go get Nnamdi. Let's worry about next year next year.
