"I'm not known as a guy who gets hand cramps when I'm writing checks..." - Jerry, 2019 speaking about Dak's upcoming contract.
He was always going to pay him. Personally, I use the term "cave" for posters who deluded themselves into thinking Jerry didn't want him, wasn't going to pay him, agreed with their assessment of him, and argued with people like me who said all along that Dak wasn't going anywhere, whether we liked it or not.
As recently as yesterday morning we had people patting themselves on the back for being "right" when they said Dak wouldn't get a new contract from Dallas.
