Yep, and you cannot fault him for that, he is not the greatest GM in the world but he has provided for his family for many generations, not too many people can claim that.



You want to have his baby - it's SO obvious roflmao roflmao roflmao roflmao roflmao

Childish


Your posts speak for themselves, you're the only person who still defends him after all these years of being a clown-owner. Proof is in the pudding. He's the PT Barnum of football.

Dallas makes more money and is worth more money than any else.

Dallas doesn’t win championships.

It’s about the money.

Prove me wrong…..

The first couple of seasons were rough; but he gave the reigns to Jimmy who then boldly traded away one of the top ten running back talents of all time. The genius Jimmy was a decade ahead of all the other football minds with his player valuation and projection formula (very similar to the Oakland A’s moneyball analysis).

Then, the worst of Jerry’s character traits start to surface….he doesn’t appreciate the people around him and disrespects them. Then the worst possible thing happens (long term consequences) and Barry wins a Super Bowl (with Jimmy’s team)

This then perpetually fuels Jerry’s ego that he can strike the Glory Hole with any coach while he disrespects and undermines coaching authority while also disrespecting his wife with similar ego driven behavior.

He treats the people who he should have the most reverence and loyalty (his coaching staff and wife) with the most disdainful behavior.


Another 3 run home run.

I agree. I think its right and good that Jerry make tons of money, it's America. I'm going to put an asterisk by this however in certain cases. There are things. Businesses, property etc that are bigger than the owner. Legacy type entities that is you are blessed enough in your life to be able to own you have an obligation to handle in a certain way. Yes it's yours but it's bigger than you. A place like the King Ranch, some historical building, an iconic brand, America's Team.... Jerry owns the cowboys and profits greatly from this, at the same time he in my opinion has a moral obligation to make the best effort possible to put a consistently winning team on the field and grow the brand and the legacy while it's in his hands. I'm not sure he has been a good caretaker of the brand for some years now. He has done a wonderful job of growing his personal brand.....

This pretty much spot on, that being said he does want to win, he is just to dam stubborn to let someone else guide the team, he wants to win a SB all on his own, highly unlikely with the QB situation they are in.

It's about 3rd on his priority list....unless you're referring to wanting to win enough to be relevant...both his team and himself...

Yes it makes a lot of sense just to win enough to be relevant , it would be stupid to want to win a SB.cannot imagine how much money he would lose or how his ego would suffer
