Despite their season being over, the Cowboys continue to be news worthy.
For those of you who missed it ..
Jason Garrett was promoted to head coach after the season. Jerry of course had to interview a minority coach and he was disappointed to be told by the NFL that his argument of Garrett being the only red headed coach in the league did not qualify him as a minority. Jerry finally gave in and interviewed Todd Bowles who he spent several hours asking if he thought Garrett was the right choice.
Rob Ryan was recently hired to "fix" a defense that was "fixed" by "Mr. Fixit" just a couple of years ago. No word yet if Jerry got a discount being that Ryan and Phillips are in the same up-and-coming coaches union.
Most fans like the hiring of Ryan though it was tough to accept the offspring of Buddy "Bounty" Ryan coaching the Cowboys. When asked how Jerry felt about hiring Rob Ryan, Jerry responded by saying, "Ahhh .. Who's your 'Buddy'?" We have no idea what he meant either, but he kept saying it repeatedly with his trademark grin and after a while, you found yourself unable to stop laughing.
Garrett along with a few of his coaches departed to scout the Senior Bowl. Much to this dismay of most fans, Dave "The Mad Poodle (tm)" Campo, as he is affectionately known, was included in Garrett's posse. On the bright side, when asked about whether Campo's inclusion on the trip meant he would be back next season, Jerry smiled, winked and said, "Not everyone got round trip tickets." When asked to elaborate, Jerry was distracted when he thought he saw a reporter with a camera nearby.
Later, Jerry was asked about Ryan's thoughts on the defensive backs. Jerry responded by saying they "were ah positive." Given Jerry's southern accent, we're not sure if it was a compliment or Jerry was saying they "were ah positive they were gonna replace 'em". Unfortunately, Jerry caught sight of another camera and left before he said more.
Progress on the CBA seems to be stagnant currently while the players rally the fans to their side. There are rumors that if they are locked out, they will hold weekly fan rally events where fans will be charged hundreds of dollars to enter, $20 for beer and $25 for hot dogs. All proceeds will go to help and support the out of work NFL players.
At CowboysZone, new threads have been appearing regularly wondering if everyone is better than Romo. What started as "Is Rodgers better than Romo?" discussions slowly degraded into "Is <insert quarterback who completed a pass or looks as though he may some day complete a pass here> better than Romo?" At least no one saw Rowdy throwing balls to fans ..
Well, that's the news in cased you missed it ..
