Parsons trade - A select few voices were called upon, none spoke against the idea

But don’t get it twisted. The extensive damage behind the scenes was irreparable.

*THAT* is why Parsons is out.

That is VERY telling.

Even though Micah pushed himself out of Dallas, I’m pleased Jerry finally traded a player while they still had great value.

Parsons is a selfish ‘me first’ guy who isn’t a leader
You can’t pay that guy that much money

at his "sources". Schottenheimer and Eberflus are sick to their stomachs right now.

Look, Micah’s on line “trade me manifesto” post was a “he pushed the nuke button” move. There was no coming back from that, no matter the BS Jerry was feeding the media that it didn’t matter. Micah was done with Jerry and playing for this loser front office.

Isn't that essentially like saying Jerry asked his yes men if they were in favor of trading Micah and they said yes?

 

[chuck520]

Sounds like a bunch of "Yes" men, what a joke this franchise is

 

[chuck520]

More lame excuses for the GM not getting the deal done, blame the player, blame the agent, etc. His job as GM is make the team better by signing the top players.

He messed around all offseason then randomly decided to trade him. No thought given to this. Worst GM in sports.

That is VERY telling.

Very telling that they still offered him a contract?

Schottenheimer will be one and done, this wont do him any favors

Micah and his super greediness created this mess, especially when Jerry called him in May while Micah told Jerry not to call him.

Sure you can, he has HOF talent and you pay those guys to make your team better.

 

[Bamx]

Any mention of who the "Select few voice" are

 

[DasTex]

His poor back....

Very telling that they still offered him a contract?

Exactly…. Or also telling that JJ probably lied about it the whole time

I mean….Eberflus did trade Khalil
Mack….he may be one of those sources lol.

 

[montgod]

Like they’ve ever spoken out against anything JJ would do in the first place. Just like Deion has Jerry listed in his phone, they thinking about that “direct deposit “ over anything else.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

When Malik Hooker came out and said Micah needs to stop….people wrote it off but he was essentially the voice for some of those in that locker room.

He offered what he was willing to pay. The number was a substantial amount. The player/agent wanted more. Jerry said "no, play out your contract and we can revisit later". Micah threw a fit, isolated himself from his teammates while at practice, and acted like a fool on live TV representing his teammates. I've never shied away from blaming Jerry, but the forced trade is all on Micah. Best of luck to him, but I think we just dodged a bullet.
