Webster’s simple definition of insanity: “a severely disordered state of the mind.”
Of course we’ve all grown up hearing that the definition of insanity is “doing the same things and expecting different results.” Tonight I believe the second definition is most appropriate describing the owner and GM of the Cowboys.
Reading that ridiculous statement crafted by Jerry’s PR department tonight about retaining Mike McCarthy as head coach because this team is “close”. Hahaha! How many times have we heard this? Was there ever even 30 seconds watching that slaughter Sunday at AT&T by the 7th seeded 9-8 visitors that any honest Cowboys fan thought that this team is “close” to anything other than early elimination?
Let me make this clear: I have nothing against Mike McCarthy. Honestly he’s been way better than the last coach Jerry was “comfortable” with. My disgust is not with Big Mac or Dak (although I’m ready for a change at QB too) Folks, Dak was not forced at gunpoint to sign his big contract. And any fan who is honest should admit Dak had a good season.
But being 2-5 in the playoffs as your signal caller means every year it gets harder for him to climb that mountain. He will be back here next year and probably many more years because our owner/GM either does not know HOW to rebuild the right way or lacks the stones to admit he was wrong about what kind of team he has. Or both.
So if you’re mad about McCarthy coming back I hope you weren’t actually believing that any coach- Bill Belichick, Jim Harbaugh, an 80 year old Jimmy Johnson, or the ghost of Tom Landry is capable of turning this Titanic around with Captain Jones at the wheel. It…does…not…matter….who is coaching. No one can fix this as long as Jerry is dominating this culture.
If you don’t believe that you are refusing to look at three decades of evidence.
I am a loyal Cowboys fan. Been a fan 59 years. But my loyalty is to that blue star on the silver helmet. Not to the 81 year old fool who apparently has no one around him who tells him that HE is THE problem or he isn’t listening. Whichever it is, I’m as clear eyed as can be. I love the Cowboys and always will. I want them to win. But expecting Jerry Jones to be the architect of a team that can raise a Lombardi is the definition of insanity to me.
