Florio is correct. Most casual NFL fans can see that the Jerry habit of waiting a long time to sign his star players is just as Florio said, “Either stubborn or stupid.”

Or both.

Get in line.

Yes seriously!

Yeah that line wraps all the way around the block.

You do understand that Jerry took a 140 million dollar purchase and turned it into a 10 billion asset right?

Hate the player but respect the game - like I said I am anti Jerry but if you don't respect what he has done from a business perspective then you are either a moron or bitter bc of your fan pov

So Shad Khan bought the Jags, one of the worst franchises in the league for $770MM in 2012. Little more than a decade later the lowly Jags are valued at $4.6B. George Steinbrenner bought the Yankees for about $10MM in 1973. They are worth $8 billion today. The Spanose family bought the Chargers for $70 MM in 1984. They are worth $5.1 billion today. Jerry Buss bought the LA Lakers for $16MM in 1979. They are worth $7.1B today. Fenway Sports bought Liverpool for about $380 MM in 2010. They are worth $5B today. The list goes on because ALL sports valuations have gone parabolic in the last few decades. Jerry did NOTHING special in Dallas. Please be better.

Florio? What's a Florio? He's a talking head, an entertainer. He's an actor whose script is to create controversy or lose his ratings. His pronouncements are no more interesting nor insightful than any of ours 'cept he's paid a lot to ham it up on camera. And he doesn't say anything we don't already know and discuss ad nauseum in this forum.

Florio is nothing but hype.

Keep telling yourself whatever makes you happy but to take an organization that was losing money and turn it into the most valuable in the world, I would call that quite an accomplishment.

It's the tale of 2 cities:
3 SBs in the first 6 years
Can't even get to a NFCCG the last 29 years.

Yup that sucks

 

[DuncanIso]

Meh, easy to pile on Jones at this point...he's near the end and has accomplished more in this world than anyone on this site and more than 99.9% of humanity.

I am anti Jerry but I respect his accomplishments...

Yup.

They are cheering the Eagles, and hating on Dallas.

Of course, the Eagles push the signing bonus into the void years, and pay everyone league min base salaries.

That money is due someday.

We did the same with Martin’s final contract.

I gave you facts. From a ROI point of view Jerry did nothing other owners haven’t done. Pick up a book or go online and read about the history of the team. It was well established before Jerry came into town. Lastly don’t you feel a little bad spinning for a paternity dodging louse like Jerry?

Sounds bang on to me. Mike isnt a fan of Mr Jerry Jones

Jerry has no clue when it comes to roster construction and HC hiring.
Outside of the Jimmy hire its been an unmitigated disaster.

Those that defend him must have some sort of cognitive disability. His supposed “build” of the value is a farce. Pure “beta” of the sporting world. Jerry is a figment.

 

[Catpappy]

It was Jerry that Robert Johnson met at the Crossroads. He’ll never need a lighter where he’s going.

Yeah, Jerry mentioning that right before the draft and then crickets after just feels like more carnival barking. Maybe something comes, but it probably won't. If it does, it probably isn't substantial. Maybe they sign Cooper.

It is just frustrating that we are working the fringes hoping for gold to drop from a tree at a heavy disvount. Entering the offseason, I didn't think we could do worse at rb and WR #2. Well as far as production from last year goes, that is where we are. Just really disappointing. Sure someone may surprise (like Dowdle did last year...btw I was fine letting him go). Although what we have seen from the Jones Cowboys, they always don't patch all the holes and it winds up killing the team.

Not a fan of what Jerry has done or not done. Really trades, trades require 2 to tango. Would Florio give him a better articel if he did those trades and got fleeced or would he have done an article about how its better not to trade if you get fleeced int he deal.

 

[J-man]

His show is one of the worst on tv so I'm not surprised.
He's a hack like most of the professional sports commentators. They will say anything (especially about Dallas or Jerry) to get clicks and publicity.

Not even worth my time to click on the link.
