Your Dallas Cowboys after Jerry moves on.

[john van brocklin]

There is ZERO chance the Jones clan post Jerry will sell the team.

It's too much of a cash cow for them.

I can see that.
I have no problem with them maintaining ownership if they would hire a quality GM and give that person space to do their job.

 

[john van brocklin]

My bet is more of the same.

My pipe dream is that once Stephen is not under Jerry’s thumb, he will feel free to adjust v following the same tired plan that has proven ineffective.

My double pipe dream is he hires a real GM.

Unfortunately, I don’t ever see the Cowboys leaving the Jones family.

Just hire a real GM!!!!!
LOL

 

[john van brocklin]

The only difference is then I track Stephen's age.

I am older than Stephen so that ain't gonna help me, lol

 

[john van brocklin]

i admit, i had to google the last 2 words.
Im just a dumb farm boy from upstate NY, not bright at all .

Some question my intelligence for being a Cowboys fan after 29 years of futility, but I am addicted to the star

 

[john van brocklin]

I can see many threads and posts getting deleted or not approved when that happens.
Some on here will be out of control.

Pretty sad when people cheer about the death of someone.
Will you participate in that social media crap?

Not me, I wish Jerry nothing but the best.
I would love for him to retire, and enjoy it.
Just quit mismanaging my favorite team.

With Stevie at the helm Jerry will still be here in spirit.

And after that you will need to track Spaulding's age, and on and on and on.

not at all, what leadership would I be showing joining in these, i'm trying to be a mod, I'm tired of this boring life!!!!

No there's nothing funny about it at all, but it'll surely be taken too far, and I agree posts will HAVE to be deleted. Like him or not he's still human

stevie lol lol lol

This isn't that complicated. We are seeing what happens after Jerry transitions from His meatsuit to his next stop. We been seeing it for many years. Only now are we seeing the reality of it.

stevie lol lol lol

Post of your life! looooool loooooooooool loooooooooool.

(so annoying).

So, as Jerry gets older, speculation abounds: how will the Franchise look after he moves on ?

The consensus is that Stephen will take control.

How will that play out you may ask ?

That's the purpose of the thread.

Below are are my random predictions/observations:

As poorly as Jerry has GM'ed this team, he still has a lot of charm and guile.

The P.T. Barnum in him has got him through some rough patches.

The just keeping the team relevant and hanging around the rim has kept the Star full of the casual fans.

Jerry also enjoyed the afterglow of the 3 SB victories he presided over.

He also lucked into 2 good serviceable QBs for next to nothing in cost in Romo and Dak.

These 2 QBs fit perfectly into the keeping the team relevant philosophy.

Stephen is not going to have any of the above benefits.

He has no charm, gets defensive when asked tough questions, and has actually insulted the fans with

his "air quotes" playoff drought response, and more recently his ridiculous response when asked about dragging out the

contract negotiations with star players.

Once Dak ages out, and we get really bad QB play like in the Campo years, this team will no longer be relevant.

The heat is gonna get really high, and frankly I don't think Stephen will be able to handle it.

I see him either hiring a real GM or selling the team.

I am really curious as to what you other folks think is going to happen?

Sports are just a money making business. The fans don’t matter anymore. Between gambling, entertainment, fantasy football, etc. real fans who care about the team are way down the totem pole now.
Stephen is an entitled billionaire that won’t care what the fans think. As long as he’s making plenty of money he won’t sell the team.

 

[DuncanIso]

nothing will change.

 

[StylisticS]

I’ve made these exact points many times. Stephen does not has the charm, charisma, and experience to do what Jerry can do. Perhaps patience too. I don’t see this franchise being ran the same way.

I also think after Jerry is gone, it will pass to Eugenia.

It is definitely a non zero number and depends on how the trust is set up. Jerral is the one who wants to own a football team and wants the attention. Not sure the rest of the family cares as much.

Coog--you will have to delete a lot of posts that people try to sneak through when Jerry passes.

 

[Hardline]

From a human standpoint I will be very sad when Jerry leaves us.

 

[CowboyFrog]

There is one MAJOR diference between Jerry and JR....one has no equal the other has Siblings who will have equal power.

 

[DallasEast]

I see him either hiring a real GM or selling the team.

I know people want to see this happen. I would too but it is extremely unlikely to ever happen.

It is more likely Stephen Jones will hire someone to manage football operations. Perhaps he will end up doing the same managing other areas of the franchise as well.

He knows he is not his father. It is unlikely he will continue to run the franchise according to all the cliff notes he has jotted down through the years. He is not nearly the salesman as his Pa and will be incapable to talking his way into the same type of lucrative deals, sponsorships, etc., that fell into his father's lap.

No one will ever see Stephen's CGI hips gyrating in a Papa Johns' pizza. It is not in him. He can barely sell stadium rodeo shows as entertainment.

It is more likely he will be a more hands-off owner. There is too much defective DNA in him to step completely out of the limelight.

He will never stop pretending to be just like his Daddy Dearest, which is why selling the team will not happen. All the kids are billionaires. Dude is (I guess) a chemical engineer. He became super-wealthy without doing any real work. Why the heck would he give it up the opportunity to make billions more doing the same after becoming head honcho?

everyone take note - this is how to easily display a longer style post in a manner very readable, well done!

I think Stephen is going to hire a gm and step back personally.
