In the last 30 years the Rangers, Mavs, and Stars have played in 9 championship series and won 3 titles. The Cowboys haven't even played in the NFC championship game in that amount of time. Jerry was right to defend himself from criticism in the late 1990s. Father time has not been friendly to him or the franchise. Sell the damn team.
Don't forget that Starship Bagel won the Grand Prize at New York Bagelfest '23, and Ironroot Distillery won Best Bourbon at the World Whiskies Awards in '20.
Can everyone just remember when Jerry Jones, along with a group of other white students, helped block black students from entering his Little Rock high school in the 50’s during the first day of desegregation of that school? It’s literally captured in photos and he’s admitted that it was him. The fact that he’s still around and successful is insane but expected.
I’m from casa view in east Dallas but went to a rich kid school in north Dallas.
For four years I dated a girl from a very wealthy, prominent old Dallas family.
One time I was at an event and Jerry Jones tried to schmooze the grandma of this wealthy family. She liked me. She was actually really cool and down to earth.
Jerry Jones grabbed her and tried to start twirling her around a dance floor because he thought he was part of this old money Dallas crowd. She came over to my girlfriend and I right after she escaped his grasp and said, “he’s such an asshole!” Coming from her, the word “asshole” was otherworldly. She hated the guy.
He was such a prick and obviously glad-handing. Fake as hell and everyone saw through it. Even I could as a poor kid from another echelon of society.
Well, Jerry Jones’ grandkids couldn’t get into the high school I went to because they couldn’t pass the entrance requirements ( ISEE tests, aptitude tests, etc).
And it was an all boys school that wasn’t catholic… if you’re from Dallas this will be enough to identify the school. My former girlfriend went to the sister school. The grandma even went to the sister school…
At least the rich kids I went to school with were intelligent as hell; even if a lot of them were arrogant and conceited and ungrateful. I was essentially top of my class in magnet schools in DISD but there I was absolutely battling to be middling.
Whats crazy is my high school actually has a bigger endowment than the college I went to.
He’s also a sick prick who messes with underage girls. Worst Fourth of July weekend ever. I had no idea he was invited. Ruined it for most of us and we left. He had one of his lackeys telling us we had to act like these teenagers were the friends with Couch’s daughter when his wife got there the next day. I’m sure no one cared we left but that’s when I realized not everyone has decency.
I don’t think so, JJ teams is the most expensive team in the world. Considering Real Madrid is second most expensive. And difference is that Madrid have been very fuckn successful the last ten years. What’s the point when the biggest losers are beating them. And Madrid are world wide and cowgirls are only a Dallas team, thanks to the fans support no matter what. His making a killing whether they win or lose. Very disappointing.
I honestly don't understand why people give him unreasonable proportions of their attention and money. People used to joke that the Cowboys are a religion in Texas, but it's really kind of true. There is no amount of bad for no length of time they can be that will stop people from giving this many their attention and money. It really is like a religion. Jones can do this abusive crap and give you nothing in return because he knows you will still show up on Sunday.
(Not bashing religion. Bashing people that worship the Cowboys.)
Same. I think the Landry-era fans got spoiled by a team that was always going to be competitive but with class and wasn't going to embarrass themselves or their fans, even in a loss.
Tbf, some are fans of other teams (who have owners/GMs that actually care) that have to pay unreasonable proportions of money to see their team that one week every few seasons.
I mean religion is kinda of the same thing. It's the ultimate "are we the baddies?" Like [Christianity] let's follow a "god" that once turned burned an entire city with sulfur because people were having a good time and ignoring him. Cast the only two people out of paradise because they seek knowledge. Or flooding the entire planet because he felt left out. Here's my favorite, the Tower of Babel:
And the LORD said, "Look, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do; nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. 7 Come, let us go down and confuse their language there, so that they will not understand one another's speech." 8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. -Genesis 11:6–8
So the humans are peaceful, and working together to accomplish great things? Better mix up their languages and spread them all over the world so they start fighting again.
And yet, people across Texas still flock into churches on Sunday and give large amounts of their income to the cause.
Do they work for him? Maybe if people stop lining his pockets by going to games and stop buying merch he will get the message and hire an actual GM. Right now he's laughing all the way to the bank
I don’t know but if they actually run Shan and RJ out the door over this…then they count my listenership gone as well!
Jerry needs every ounce of crap he’s getting. He can whine and complain about how he doesn’t get the credit for all the good…and it’s the same ol song and dance from long ago when he ran Jimmy out the door. Guess what bub? Go get your team even to the damn conference championship game, and then I’ll entertain giving you a cookie. Until then…you ain’t done jack caca for three decades now
He’s not gonna fire those guys specifically but he can end the Cowboys contract with The Fan. If that were to happen, that station’s listenership would drop big time. I don’t see him doing that, but guaranteed a high level exec at Audacy was on the phone with Jerry to clear things up.
He won’t run Shan and rj off he just wouldn’t do the show anymore which is a contractual obligation more than likely. So in other words he just got pissy and nothing will happen.
Tickets to Cowboy home games are so expensive and to pay to see that product, I'd be furious.
Jerry Jones is a grade A bitch that really doesn't care about competing, lies about going all in. He cares about the Cowboys being talked about in mainstream sports media and being front and center if possible.
Jerry Jones is a marketing genius, but his response to those radio host was chickenshit. Sooner or later he's going to lose his fan base because he's a terrible GM. He's lost the flow of the game itself, and now we have the same quarterback that we've had since 2005. Two decades of losers. A free agent in Romo, and a fourth round pick in Dak. Huge difference between them and a Heisman trophy winner (Roger Staubach), and a first round pick (Troy Aikman). Reality will set in to Cowboy fans like myself, and now I'm cheering on the Stars, Mavericks, and even the Rangers. Thanks Jerry
His ass has reached a point to where he’s so old, that he is set in his ways. We will never admit that he’s the reason why the cowboys have been mediocre for decades, but it’s the most valuable sport franchise in the world 🙄. Like that means anything to fans who want to win…
The thing about people is that after they become a certain level of rich, they assume a certain level of infallibility. And so when they admit that they were wrong about something, it's not because they believe they were actually incorrect, but because they think it's what people will want to hear to feel better about themselves and their lack of relative success. There are very few "human" billionaires on this planet. I'd count Mark Cuban and Warren Buffet among them.
Jerry, despite his ego, despite him believing he's gods gift to football....has been exposed for 30 years now. He is not a good GM. He is great at generating revenue and value of an organization, I'll give him that, but he is terrible at building championship teams and everyone knows it....except Jerry. The way he behaved on 105.3 today....he behaved like the whiney little spoiled brat he is. "What would you do guy?! Let me hear it!" Then they try to tell him and he doesn't want to hear it, gets butthurt and then threatens to fire them. It's not often you tell an 80 year old man to "grow up", but somebody needs to tell him.
JJ is a cheating, lying, bullying SOB. He is an awful GM and has created a dysfunctional culture within the Cowboys that will never allow them to succeed. Until that hush money paying, cheater drops dead the Cowboys will continue to lose and unfortunately lose spectacularly.
For the first time in 30+ years, I haven't watched a single game this season nor will I watch any games. This organization is a cluster fuck and I'm done with them until Jerry dies...
Sometimes those clowns on the Fan need a reality check, especially Bobby and Broaudus, they talk so condescendingly to the listeners when the listener questions them, now the tables are turned, I say get new hosts Jerry, do it, make it happen.
Typical rich person behavior. I hate this trend of lumping everyone from a certain age cohort together.
I know some cool boomers and some assholes in Gen Z… and usually the strongest determiner to how much of an asshole they are is how much money they (or their parents) have.
I stopped listening to the fan this year due to them always having Jerry on there better off acting like he is dead and gone , would probably have better ratings
I, for one, am shocked. Jerry Jones is well known for having everyone involved in his decision-making process, and if God forbid something goes awry (which doesn't happen often with the Cowboys), taking personnel responsibly.
