How the Reeves deal fell through (At least How I think it did)

I think Grizz hit the nail on the head with this statement:
"So Reeves thought he was creating a position with executive authority and Jerry was viewing it more as an assistant coach."
And this is how I think it all could've went down:
Jerry: Maybe we should hire a consultant?
Wade: Hey my buddy Dan would be a great choice!
Jerry: Great let's bring him in.
Jerry to self: Thank God now we have somebody that will help Wade out.
Wade to self: Thank God now we have somebody that will help Jerry out.
Wade: Hey Dan, Jerry wants to hire you as a consultant!
Dan: That sounds great I would love to be part of the Cowboys again!
Jerry: Hey Dan how would like to become a consultant for the Cowboys?
Dan: That sounds great when can i start?
Jerry: Just come on down and we'll get you an office and hammer out the details when you get here.
Jerry: Thanks for coming Dan. So here's the contract. You will be reporting to Wade.
Dan: Whoa. I thought I was being brought in as a consultant?
Jerry: You are being brought in as a consultant. A consultant to Wade.
Dan: Isn't that basically being an assistant coach?
Jerry: No because you won't be coaching you will be consulting.
Dan: I thought I was being brought in as an Executive?
Jerry: Oh heavens no I handle all of the executive decisions and sometimes I let Stephen think he's an executive. I have got everything under control. It's Wade who needs help. That locker room is a nightmare. And did you see that Philly game?
Dan: Sorry Jerry my health won't let me work the hours necessary to assist err consult a head coach. I am going t o have to pass.
Jerry: I'm sorry to hear that Dan, Wade was really excited about the idea of having a consultant on board.
There you have it folks.
And it wasn't T.O.'s fault!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I'll tell you how it happened
Wade wanted someone to watch over the offense, and Reeves wanted to get more involved on the offensive side of the ball than Jason Garrett wanted him to, and he told Jerry he wasn’t comfortable with that. So Jerry ended it.
Yeah think your right saw similar post by Cowboy78 on Grizz's thread.
But hey I was just having fun.

+1 quincyyy....that's the reality of it right there....
Reeves started pulling out coaches film on the offensive unit, and went over to Jerry to advise him of what needs fixing, and Garrett caught wind of it through one of his “sources” , and made a plea to Jerry to add " no authority over offensive personel, schemes, the offensive coordinator, offensive play calling, or game planning of offense " into the almost signed contract, or he was going to pick up all his marbles and go home.
Jerry blew this one badly…..I NEED to know what was written into that damn contract..

Lemmuce
Lemmuce was a cornstalk in a field full of grass and pollen. One day, a weary genie stumbled into the hot, dry field for a rest. He was most likely on drugs. When Lemmuce saw the genie, he requested a wish. With a click of his heels and a hoarse grunt, the genie transformed Lemmuce into a boy.
Once Lemmuce was a boy, he died. You see, Lemmuce’s only wish was to be transformed into a boy – but at heart, he was nothing but a cornstalk. And when he went into heaven, he wore his cornstalk jersey.
Hahaha love it.
Much better than mine. So was the jersey made out of cornstalk?

Nice Ricky.
Obviously there were some communications issues between the 3 head dudes.
George Teague, Brock Marion, the Roy Williams-of-old: Where are you?
Good one, Ricky. lol
Probably not far from the truth. I’m thinking it might be for the best. There’s too many cooks in the kitchen as it is and no head chef.
Thanks Everyone!
People seemed to be getting to uptight round here and I was trying to lighten things up. Glad some of you enjoyed it and recommended it. This was my first fan post!
