Every Cowboys fan must read this...

and thank their lucky stars (pun intended) that Jerry Jones owns the Dallas Cowboys.
It is hard to slam Jerry for his many football blunders after reading this. I realize that Jones may have skeletons in his closet that he has done a better job hiding, but the owner of the Redskins is a tool.
Dan Snyder is truly a slimeball.

Dan Snyder, Mike Brown, and Al Davis are the worst
I have no clue how any of those 3 teams have fans. They will always be failures of franchises.
At least we have some hope our Cowboys won’t always be average-at-best…
The Ohio State Buckeyes are your Sugar Bowl champions... and for the 7th year in a row Michigan still sucks.
Al Davis does not belong in the group
He has had a lot of success in the NFL and was one of the driving forces behind the NFL-AFL merger. So he has not won in awhile, but he same thing can be said about Jones and what he has done to the Cowboys since JJ left the building

Jerry isnt that bad
he really isnt
yeah some bad decisions but he has done some good for us
Dez Bryant, huge acquisition man huuuuuge
Jerry isnt that good
Yea he really isnt.
Roy W. Brad Johnson. Barry Switzer. T.O. Jimmy. Wade.
bad decisions
and rotten record since Jimmy left. But wasnt everybody gushing how much talent this team had until the 2010 debacle?
huh
Jimmy was bad?
TO was productive and one of the best WR’s in the league until his last season here

I think he means running Jimmy off.
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.
Bingo
Thats what iam talking about. Running Jimmy off. Signing T.O to an extension, then running him off. T.O got 6 million for nothing. So that 6 million went against the cap. Then to replace him, Jethro trades for Roy Williams and signs him to a huge contract. With all that wasted money and draft choices ( 1 2 and 5 ). A few smart moves and the Cowboys could have been a top team.
Most of this stuff
just isnt relevant to anything football….but for some reason I just read the WHOLE thing…TWICE!!!…LOL
I have said it before...

Makes me want to buy Jerry a drink and tell how much I appreciate him.
Well, almost.
If at first you don't succeed - blame someone else.
Trying to get wirter fired
supposedly Snyder has told the paper that if they don’t fire the writer of the article he is going to sue them.
I live in DC, and I can attest
that probably 90-95% of the article is true. Truthfully, living in the heart of Redskins country, I realize that there are a lot of very nice people who love their team no matter what. Snyder’s approval rating with the fans is probably 10%…he’s almost like Donald Sterling is to Clippers fans. It’s hard for me to hate the Skins when they are run with this kind of incompetence leading to the yearly demoralization of a lot of very nice and team-loyal people.
Jerry is better than Snyder, far better. But still, I think Jerry gets way too much credit from fans as a “great owner” because of the three rings. In the last 15 years, Jerry has been about an average owner: terrific at marketing the team, but we have to count his weak coaching hires and his employment of a bad GM against him.
Judging from some of the stuff...
former employees at the local Six Flags have told me, it’s easy to believe the outdated peanuts and other food shenanigans , employee treatment and “marketing ploys”. It starts at the top…
Rabid and luvin' it
regarding those "dream seats"...
my cousin’s hubby has front row cardinals tickets, and acts like they are concert seats, advertising them as such. he was trying to sell those seats for the dallas/az game on christmas for $850, when they were going for $250 on stub hub. i told him that, and he claimed that he wasn’t stub hub. funny how those tix dropped, the closer the game got. last i heard they were $200 a few days before the game. i’m guessing he got $100 for the pair, if he was LUCKY. i once sat in those seats…and they SUCK!! i’d rather watch the game on a 19" black and white tv, drinking warm beer. what a tool!
Snyder is also suing that Washington City paper
You aint been around in awhile, maybe you haven't heard........I don't shine shoes no more
Yup
The suit claims the weekly newspaper used ‘’lies, half-truths, innuendo and anti-Semitic imagery to smear, malign, defame and slander’’ Snyder.
The anti-Semitic is for the altered picture where they made him look like the devil. Hmmm, didn’t think that would qualify, but whatever.
Rabid and luvin' it
Well it wouldn't qualify if you think about it rationally and reasonably.
Try thinking about it as a paranoid hysterical or a calculated opportunist… see how it qualifies now?
Truly another must-read
Now that’s entertainment. Couldn’t happen to a “nicer” franchise.
Payback, Mr. Marshall, it’s a b!tch, ain’t it.
Point After (rule change): You score, you kick. Debate welcomed.
What idiots.
Taking on a paper with bullying tactics. Great way to win friends and influence your fans.
If at first you don't succeed - blame someone else.
Who was it that said never get into a war of words
with someone that buys ink by the truckload, or something to that effect?

Danny Boy is already backpedaling
This from the cbssports rapidreports:
Owner Dan Snyder said his defamation lawsuit against The Washington City Paper was the advice of Tony Wyllie, the Redskins senior vice president of communications. “He wanted to do it,” Snyder told ESPN 980.
Riiiight. The devil made me do it…

One thing you have to give Snyder credit for..
He keeps a lot of lawyers employed. What a weasel d*ck.
I started out with nothing and still have most of it left
Steve Young
Now there is a guy, that thanks Jerry every day. If Jerry had not run Jimmy off and then hired Barry Switzer. Steve would have never got that monkey off his back. No ring and no HOF. Bret Farve would not have gotten a ring either. Oh Jerry, It’s not too late. Jerry the owner must fire Jerry the GM. A Dallas Cowboys with a Jerry owner and GM, will be forever sucking Alan Balls!!!!!!!!!!
Its time to end the cartel
All NFL teams should be owned by fans like the packers, instead of being held hostage by the likes of Snyder. Sure some teams have great owners. But the league would be more competitive (and perhaps more fan friendly) if the presidents of football operations had to answer to a board of directors.

You know some of the redskins fans are calling these guys mediots... sounds familiar

The ice cream deal was kinda funny, actually
Childish, but humorous.
"I just wrote the check, it's up to you guys to cash it!" - Jimmy Johnson to defense after failed attempt on 4th down deep inside Cowboy territory. AND THEY DID!!!!
Snyder is scum
I actually feel bad for Redskins fans who are getting squeezed for every dollar possible. No owner treats his fans worse than Snyder. Though the Jerry has been coming up with innovative ways to gouge fans. This is a problem league wide, and is a natural growth out of the massive popularity of the league. However, the NFL has gone too far between PSLs, charging full price for preseason, parking, etc. If there is a major work stoppage next year they are asking for trouble with fans.
