Because of your hatred for Jones, you can't see things that don't add up with your thinking. Jones was very instrumental in the Cowboys winning the 3 Super Bowls in the 90's. Proof was in the pregame round table discussion on Super Bowl XLV in Dallas. In that discussion with Aikman, Johnston, Emmitt, Irvin, Jones and Johnson where Johnson admitted he didn't have all the power and authority those outside of the organization thought he had. It also came out that in his first 2 drafts Jones over ruled him on who he initially wanted to take with their first picks. In 1989 Johnson originally wanted to take Tony Mandarich with the first pick and Jones over ruled him and the Cowboys took Aikman. Johnson had a problem with Aikman because he turned down Johnson on a scholarship when Aikman transferred from OU to UCLA and then in 1990 Johnson convinced Jones to trade up to take James Francis a LB and about 2 minutes after the trade was completed the begals took Francis. So Johnson then wanted to take LB Tony Bennett and jones said no and over ruled him and the Cowboys took Emmitt.. So because of Jones 2 out of the 3 triplets came to Dallas, Irvin was already there the year before Jones bought the team.
Your what if with what if the Cowboys had beaten the giants and gotten into the playoffs by no means in any stretch of anyone's imagination was a guarantee the Cowboys would have gotten to the Super Bowl and beaten the patriots. There would have been no guarantee the Cowboys would have beaten the falcons then packers in Green Bay and then the 49er in Frisco. I wish it would have happened and even though there have been things that Jones has done that I really don't like, I don't disregard all the things that Jones has done that helped the Cowboys. I also don't let those things that Jones has done cloud me from the fact that there are former Cowboys players and coaches that have said they've never been around an owner that wants to win as bad or as much as Jones does and that he was always working on building a winning team.
The huge difference between me and people like you is I know to continually whine about Jones and doing your what ifs will not change a single thing except grow negativity towards the Cowboys. Because neither Jerry or Stephen read a single thing here all of the negative comments will not change a single thing you want changed. All the negative comments do is show those who are fans of other teams that the Cowboys have fans just like the eagles and most people think the eagles have the worse fans in sports.
