Nobody in this entire organization wants to roll up their sleeves

Is that the FO or the fans. Of course, it could be both.
Fans are fans. Various opinions, passionate, typically inept, but they want to win more than anything. They certainly do not care about whether or not the team keeps labor costs down while profits are at an all-time high. This is the NFL, not Walmart.

Sure...,if you live for it. I know how hard it is to win championships....I've seen 5 SBs... I'd love to see more, but it ain't paying my bills or helping me sleep at night. I enjoy my personal accomplishments....,those I busted my butt for....those mean a lot to me. Cowboys are just along for my ride.

Never been to a Walmart, but I get the analogy. Fans that live for someone else's accomplishments? That's lazy....

not me sir. When Dallas loses my family and friends know to leave me alone for the next 24 hours. Minimum.

LAZY, LAZY, LAZY, LAZY. That is why they extended Dim, and that is why they are fixin to extend Corky....it's just too much damn work for them to switch gears....let alone EVER do it on the fly.....see 49ers, Eagles, Rams, and NOW Denver....embarrassing. Other teams have almost ten (10) coaches lined up to interview, and our own organization can't be bothered with even ONE. Like I said yesterday, the media and fans are to blame for this....NOBODY else....Michigan was about to hire a football coach a few years back that nobody wanted, and there was a hug fan protest at the University Presidents house....that coach did NOT get hired.....NOT advocating that, but we do NOTHING as a fan base....except take it. Corky was a dead man walking two (2) months ago, and now you have media members talking about how good he might be as a CEO/walk around coach.....huh? What? It all started a couple months ago, when Booger threatened the trio on The Fan 105.3, and ever since then every media member has become absolutely pathetic....like I've said for years, nut up as a group....he can't pull EVERYONE'S credentials....just sad. Trust me, Booger has a breaking point....but nobody has done anything to force it yet....still WAY TOO MANY idiots...some probably in there 50's or older...who still have nothing on their Christmas lists but Cowboys merch. Look in the mirror before blaming Booger....and you too The Fan 105.3, The Ticket 96.7, Fish, Mickey, Brad, Babe....and EVERYONE else working out of The Star in Frisco. Next year WILL be must watch TV, because things are gonna get bad....and I'll be smiling every time I see how uncomfortable Booger and Chuckles look up in the booth knowing what a mistake they made in Free Agency, Dim, and Corky.....I'm rubbing my hands together and laughing already. Happy New Year everyone!!!
Practically the entire executive team has not earned their role. The only outside executive is Will McClay who only had 1 year of experience prior to joining the Cowboys.

We by far are the most inbreed organization in all of sports.

This is why this board needs to support people like me who are trying to turn into independent media...

Well, I'm in my 50's and haven't bought any Cowboy crap in the past 15 years because I'm so fed up with it. I REMEMBER when this team was hated because they were known as a winning franchise not as a laughingstock that finds new and embarrassing ways to lose each week. I'm so numb that it doesn't even bother me when they lose anymore

There is an article out that says the Booger Crew has been doing a coaching search behind the scenes, leaving Big Mac in purgatory.

The writer uses quotes from someone in the know who has heard if from other coaches.

Booger is always looking to get better and I don't blame him for that, but when you screw someone out of a chance to better themselves to your benefit? Yeah, that's...not nice.

I suspect the guys he's spoken to behind the scenes have said, "not interested," or, "the money is not right."

I still hope Mike walks and we see Booger struggle to find a cheap option.

Soft organization. Top down. That simple. Everyone, including players, have too many creature comforts to be a gritty ball club. Football is supposed to be hard. Not a country club. McCarthy wants more of that easy comfortable paycheck. That said, Jerry is playing dirty. If we gonna let him walk, darn it, let him. Shiet or get off the pot.

It's even harder to win a championship when the owner is an idiot and the GM. I've been around long enough to see us win 4 SB's. But doubt I will see another as long as a Jones controls the team. It's a shame.

Y'all realize MM is staying right? They are just negotiating the contract.
