Patience is bitter but it’s fruits are sweet

Jake said:
Cowboys fans, not to mention the GM, have been overestimating the talent on the roster for years. No speed in the passing game and a bunch of JAGs on defense - who in the world would be intimidated by the cross-your-fingers-and-hope-they-force-a-field-goal Cowboys defense?

Granted, a coaching philosophy rooted in 1992 doesn't help but the roster isn't all that either. Don't kid yourself, Stephen Jones.

Disagree with the 1992 coaching philosophy. I think the philosophy comes from the Rich Kotite, Bruce Coslet school. Which is to say just plain bad.

Certainly doing it his way is the most important thing of all to him. His own words affirm that.

And he's in such a position as even when he fails - and he fails a lot - he can't actually fail.

Cowboys don't win on the field? They still win off the field and he makes a ton of money. Half of the TV revenue - almost half the cap - goes in the owner's pocket each year, the players get that other half to share. All of the merchandise sales, anything with a star on it, goes to him. As well as the profits from the stadium, as well as those from several other stadium arrangements he profits from.

He can't lose. Even when he does.

Jones wants to win more than you or I combined. He just doesn't know how to get out of his own way.

Your fruit is bitter.

If contact high was real, this board would be on cloud nine. Find another outlet. People just want results-not declarations that they are beeching or whining because they expect more or faster results; it's just called reality. I shoot over to see if anything interests me but really the reality is this team is going nowhere fast based on past results (under current leadership). Perhaps some more wins this season because of the above average rushing attack, but no way to win consistently in the postseason. If your general expectation for the season has already removed the possibility of any more than a wild-card victory-it's a fairly meh type outlook. Eh Cowboys-they used to be something worth watching!!! They still wear the same uniforms!!!

Really no need for you to follow them then I suppose.

No, what's bitter is the incompetent Jones family running this football team for nearly a quarter century, with nothing to show for it but a couple playoff wins.

Anyone showing patience for sweet fruit down the road is investing nothing more than blind, unwarranted trust in the drunken old man whose been playing fantasy football with our team since he ran Jimmy Johnson out of town.

I'm legally separated. I may decide to follow more at some point (I've been rabidly following for 3 decades). I don't try to alter your expectations-that would be ridiculous. Anyone that feels the team is not headed in the right direction has plentiful evidence to support the claim. Let them have at it-once they are done venting either they are still following or they aren't.
