Ugh...

Jones said Saturday that he's the only Cowboys official with a "full picture" of the team's operations.

Wow...we are in trouble...:bang2: :bang2: :bang2: :bang2: :bang2:

Sounds like most GMs of most operations. What's the beef here?

No.. Quarterback Coach is just another anti TO guy, and knows that Jerry wants to keep him.

Most GMs understand football.

Wasn't talking just about football. Who else should know all about the team's operation?

The player's, the stadium, salary cap, concessions sales, marketing and everything else...

The last time I checked Jerry still owns the team. If it were me I'd want to know what is going on at all times.

go yell at him, that'll teach him

Trust me, as much as I would love to, why?

The guy just wants to be "the man" in this organization. He owns it so it is his right, but think of one GM that has pressers like he does, one that says he loves the media attention around his team...oh, and then gags them after it looks like it may be hurting the team.

When your owner is trying to be the face of your team you are screwed...ego, making money, and then winning, as long as it is his way is how Jerry operates...period.

or I dunno maybe he isnt going to give the media the satisfaction of saying they are hurting the team during the season? So he says he enjoys the attention hoping they will go the opposite? This isnt rocket science here

I'm glad that the something minor like GM responsibilites makes that list...the fact that we have someone with very limited football perspective making the calls on this club when he is worrying about naming a stadium is not good. Jerry is great at dtermining coke or pepsi...sadly the concept of how to build a successful team evades him...

I don't know, but I doubt Jerry is the smartest man in the building

esp. as it pertains to coaching football teams

if he didn't hire Jimmy Johnson, Jerry would just be another Al Davis, and that wasn't even a brilliant hire, Jerry knew the guy, that's it

Its an alternative sure. The media does all kinds of things to put Jerry down why wouldnt they not cover him if he said he enjoys it?

Last time I was there it was all Pepsi, so you are wrong about that one.

Luckily he isn't the coach then

When it comes to players to be cut or kept, contracts etc who would know more than him?
