Stephen: We don't want apathy in our fan base

[MyFairLady]

Daddys big boy is all grown up and gets to play with Daddys big boy toys now.

Is there a more tone-deaf franchise in the League at this point? SMDH.

Further proof all they want to do is not be terrible.

I don’t at all see the path to winning in todays NFL if you aren’t willing to be bad for at least a short period of time.

First to build it, then to suck it up cap-wise on the money you borrowed from the future to get over the hump once you’ve got it built.

I get that these two refuse to work that way, but they are competing against other teams that dont…and those are the teams that are going to prevail.

The funny thing is Dallas is a market that will still have season tickets sold out ASAP even during a rebuild year. Sure, you may see more opposing fans in the stands towards the end of the season but ownership already got the bag, and still get bag from parking, food, etc....

People will still buy jerseys, hats etc... It's not a fickle fanbase. For better or worse.

No playoff success is not acceptable. 12-5 isn’t acceptable if your are built to get blown out in playoffs. I can accept 7-10 for a couple years if they would work to build a winner and go for it when the window is there. We are staring at 7-10 again.

 

[JW82]

Stephen. Be smart but show some guts and also get rid of those awful glasses. You're welcome.

 

[Doomsday]

I just hope they don't do something stupid like trade for a WR or something. The Mingo trade was bad enough.

You never know what bonehead move they will do next.

 

[Gameover]

They're the biggest crybabies on the planet

This is funny coming from the biggest lap dog on the board.

 

[MS17]

let me know when he quits saying "you "know" after answering any question asked of him.

That Stephen; he's a real wordsmith, huh?

 

[SinceDayOne]

1) Stephen or Jerry one speaks.

2) The fan base cringes.

3) The rest of the NFL world laughs.

Over and over again and again.

That Stephen; he's a real wordsmith, huh?

anytime someone has to say "you know" after every answer he gives, means he doesn't know!!

 

[MS17]

Yep. "you know" isn't a cliche to Stephen. He probably learned it from his 'Dealing with the Media' seminars.

 

[ChuckA1]

Too late for that, you dope! What a pathetic FO. I've been following the the Cowboys since 1962 and have never seen fan disillusionment like this. You and your old man have ruined this storied franchise and are the laughing stock of the NFL.

 

[LonnieElam]

The funny thing is Dallas is a market that will still have season tickets sold out ASAP even during a rebuild year.

Uh, yeah, if you have a seat license you are obligated to buy the tickets every season, or you lose the license.

 

[Carson]

They don’t care about apathy. They care about the money not coming in

 

[NotForLong]

Stephen I hope more and more Cowboy fans join the financial boycott and stop buying DAL merch, and stop attending games.

Apathy will do that to a die hard fan

 

[Floatyworm]

Apathy is a lack of interest, emotion, or motivation that can impact a person's daily life. It can be a symptom of a number of mental health conditions and neurological disorders.

So.....when you have a front office that demonstrates this in an off season....sitting out free agency....Not attending pro days....Showing the fan base very little interest in getting the team better......

Then why is it the fan bases fault for being apathetic? Stephen might want to look in the mirror and realize this is ALL his fault.

Really starting to think the entire Jones family is all about deflection.....and never taking any kind of responsibility.....when in fact.....It's always been their fault.
