If Fish has ballz enough to takes this kind of stance, I'm guessing he knows that there is more biting commentary to follow by other media members (not named Mickey, Babe, or Brad).
no they are not. Jones is getting exactly what he wants, setting things up for next year.
lots of attention. fan interest (negative interest doesn't matter as long as its interest)
excuses set up, meaning injuries were the cause.
plan is to sell hope this off season. new coach. players back from injuries. focus on draft and over sell. and then sign one big name FA.
and tell everyone, how we are back, and we were good to compete and injuries set us back and now we will do it this year, blah blah blah.
and keep attention on cowboys. the media will argue did they do enough, some will say, yeah they did, remember they were good before injuries....and it keeps interest on the cowboys.
this is set up perfectly for the joneses
