Could have had many many more since 1989 then just 3, if he had only not fired Johnson. Oh, the team would be worth even more than the 1.5 billion.

BTW, you haven't won a playoff game since 1995 because of his firings and hirings.

[quote=GMScud;491889]This is great. Jerry Jones: "I think I am unreasonable sometimes relative to my passion and my interest about the team,'' he said. "I admit I can be unreasonable and, if you will, illogical sometimes."

HAHA! Bye Cowgirls!

The late SportsCenter's headline for the Cowboys? "All glamour, no guts."

HA! Bow to the galmour gods!

Re: Jerry Jones' top gaffes - a retrospective
 

I just love the face Jerry makes when the Cowboys lose at the end of the game. He looks so excited, ready to burst, then he clinches his jaw and curses under his billionaire dollar breath. I'll take Danny boy and his lucky belt buckle over this guy any day.

And he fires the coach that builds a championship team and wins him those championships!!! Yeah............He's a freakin idiot alright!

He gave up two draft picks for pacman and three more for Roy Williams. Yep! He's an idiot!!!

He gets TO on his team after TO had destroyed two other teams.........I can keep going on and on and on.

Re: Jerry Jones' top gaffes - a retrospective
 

Well with the mistakes Snyder has made over the years I'm not going to start throwing stones at JJ.

Re: Jerry Jones' top gaffes - a retrospective
 

It's not about making mistakes. It's about learning from your mistakes.

and don't forget to mention he is now running the team as if he was the football coach.

Re: Jerry Jones' top gaffes - a retrospective
 

Snyder has made his share of mistakes, but he doesn't meddle like Jones does. Jones is in team meetings, he patrols the sidelines, and he's heavily involved with personnel decisions. He's become more hands on over the years while Snyder has wisely backed off.

Therefore I have no problem throwing stones at JJ. It's apples and oranges.

Re: Jerry Jones' top gaffes - a retrospective
 

MATTY,is'nt there some league rule about owners on the sidelines during regular season games?i understand if a player gets seriously injured why he would be down there then,but jerry jones is down there almost every week!i have never seen snyder on the sideline,i have seen him when the team came off the field and in the locker room after games and playoffs,what gives with the nfl protocol on owners on the sidelines?

Very true. Plus JJ is basically the GM too. No question he is the most hands on owner in sports. I'd like to throw stones, apples, and oranges at him.
