I think this is just an attempt to scare Jerry, it will have the opposite effect and cause more strife. They think they can scare this man? They think $10 million in legal fees will stop him? LOL
:laugh: I know. Didn't the guy just spend $15 million on his HOF party? ONE SINGLE PARTY.

The action would be under the guise of Goodell himself concluding that Jones “has been or is guilty of conduct detrimental to the welfare of the League or professional football.” Under the current CBA, this is well within Goodell’s power.
:lmao2:

Goodell and his Bob Kraft collusion with SpyGate and other machinations has been far more detrimental to the league that Jerry Jones has ever been.

Jerry has only been detrimental to his own team.

The Draft next year will be a spectacle to watch. If all this plays out

I wouldn't doubt it because they want him out so bad. And I can understand that . It's like your damned if you do and damned if you don't. It's probably why this is being leaked. The NFL knows how popular Jerry is with Cowboy fans.

This isn't an attack on the Cowboys. This is a threat against Jerry. They're not going to do it, but they darn sure want the media talking about it because it cuts him at the knees for these lawsuit threats he's making.

There seems to be some confusion by some here on what a forfeiture is. The Cowboys don't go away or go to another league. A forfeiture would mean Jerry would be forced to sell the team.

I would like to have the new owner one that would hire real coaches , a real GM then the Cowboys might be real winners but it will never happen.

Lol so the other owners are going to choose Roger Goodell over the Dallas Cowboys?

1. No chance
2. If they did, they truly are absolute morons of the highest level


Do not underestimate the stupidity of the NFL or the huge egos involved in this. I actually think Jerry has let far too many things slide over the years.

They wont get rid of the Cowboys they would just take the Cowboys away from Jerry. The problem with that as an option is that it would damage the league to such a degree that it potentially may not recover. But people do really stupid things when it comes to stuff like like this.

I think there's more going on than meets the eye here. The last couple of years should be enough for people to grasp how deep corruption runs in most of our institutions. The NFL is not exempt. I'm thinking of what Jerry said when the flag controversy was at it's peak: "Make me the Bad Guy".

Oh. Well. Listen. If Roger Goodell can somehow remove the Jones family from the Dallas Cowboys I'll never say another bad word about him. Ever. That would be the greatest day in sports ever.

Yeah you got to ask yourself this question "which benefits the Dallas Cowboys more, Goodell leaving or the Jones family leaving?"

Just think about this .. imagine the skeletons in the NFL's closet that Jerry knows about :D This is a fight the NFL should think long and hard about.

It's also a fight that we should root for the NFL to win.

I believe some NFL owners are jealous of Jerry's business acumen, stadium, headquarters and the popularity of his team.

The most popular team in the NFL before Jerry owned the Cowboys was ...... the Cowboys as the NFL has grown so has the Cowboys. It's not like he took the Jaguars and made them the most popular team in the league, Jerry just squeezes everything he can financially out of that popularity.
