Don't worry guys, no one in Dallas media will call him out on this bullshit.

Lulz. Call him out on what that the entire national media hasn't already?

Is there something else you'd like to see laid out above and beyond "a comical, carnival barker, showman masquerading as a National Football League general manager". 

There's more. I know.

He is constantly called out on his shit.  It's not about people not calling him out, he doesn't care at an atmospheric level.

Jerry doesnt care!  93,000 +,in attendance today.

I wish Dak would start referring to Jerry as “the old dumbass”.  to the media.

He cares. He’s insanely thin-skinned. If he wasn’t he’d have ceded control to a football GM and have put up curtains.  He desperately wants to be known as the football man that did it HIS way despite the critics. It matters more to him about any gate.

Yep, that second half was a lot of quit. The eagles started doing bits they got so bored. 

If they don't change out McCarthy then the quit will be full steam ahead. You can't just let the same thing happen every week with no changes unless you want full roster level quit

And you had Jimmy Johnson in 89, not a bloated turd disguised as a head coach.

And Jerry when he was, what? Just 70 years old or so and still and young and humble and willing to defer to people who knew football, instead of the arrogant 104 year old astronomer he's become, debating the movement of stars and planets to justify the failings of his rotten macaroni brain.

If he cared he would have hung a curtain yrs ago…. he would have turned things over long ago….. so yes he cares,  about saying I told you so…….. winning is somewhere down the priority list.

Goddamn.....that nonsense about the sun might be the dumbest shit I can remember that tool rambling on about, and he's provided a metric ton of shit over the years. That mfer is almost braindead. Its glorious.

Ticket guys do. But to answer @PittsburghTiger, yes, credentials would get revoked. DMN best writers have to tread carefully. And, it wouldn’t matter. Jerry would change nothing, and would have sellouts. Cowboys fans, true diehards, are absolute morons. They’re typically tatted up adults that wear jerseys. The pics in this thread are very representative of the season ticket holders. 

Jerry’s comments about the sun are so retarded. And yes, I’d be in total favor or imploding that abortion of a stadium. Everything about the Cowboys is so laughably bad. This season has been glorious. 

I find that to be pretty sad. I’ve been going to games/events with credentials for over 30 years.  I’ve been on the inside and outside as a writer and always viewed my duty just to write what I saw & what happened.
 

 I never had to cover the Steelers as a weekly writer, just some features over the years, so that was easy but, I wrote about Pitt Football through some of the worst games, ever (go back and look at our 1996 season and see how epically horrendous that was), and I did have to parse words and not let feelings get involved. 
 

Just stick to the facts,  I reckon, and you won’t get in trouble.  Now, columnists have a much different row to hoe than guys who cover every day.

No doubt it’s gotta be HIS way. That is the key thing. He’ll never buckle to pressure about anything.

Ok.  I get it.  Injuries and a backup QB.  But, can they at least try something different?  Running up the middle and throwing 1 yard passes DOES NOT FUCKING WORK.  Put in Lance (at least for the mobility) or throw the ball down the field.

Just throw it deep.  Might get a catch.  Might get a pi.  Might get a int same as a punt.  Those stupid sw g passes fat Mike lives don’t work these days.  At least for this ceew

If they had balls and brains they would blow it up and trade everyone they could and start over, and I mean everyone, Micah, Zack, Dak, Ceedee etc..

The big problem with that is now you're counting on a group you know to be incompetent, to not get fleeced on every trade and to make useful draft picks with what they get in return.

[GhostOfTomJoad 9514]

Re: Curtain-gate, it's clear why Jerrah won't use them during late afternoon games: he thinks the glare of the sun is an advantage that will intimidate the opposition.  I'm sure somewhere over the past 15 years there have been a handful of times where the Cowboys benefited from their opponent losing the ball in the sun. Maybe it even tilted a game Dallas' way once. But ol' Jerrah is oblivious to his own team being hamstrung by this stupidity and is doubling down in hopes of it being the difference in a playoff game with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. 

He'd rather make it harder for his own team to have success week in and week out on the chance of hitting the jackpot in January where he could then turn around and crow about how brilliant his design and facility management is. That's it. Don't overthink it.

Exactly. There’s no hope in tearing it down to the ground because we’re stuck with the front office that just traded a meaningful pick for the worst team in the league’s 4th string WR.

I kinda love the idea that the architect couldn’t be bothered to rotate the plans for the stadium 90 degrees, because fuck it, he got his money so who cares? It’s a perfect microcosm for the Cowboys as an organization.

Pretty sure it had to be oriented E/W b/c of existing underground infrastructure that would prevent the underground anchoring that the stadium required.

I doubt it was even considered, but regardless of orientation, in the architect's mind the issue would be easily mitigated with curtains.

He won't close the curtains because the media/fans brought it up first and it made him look bad.  He thinks keeping them open is dunking on the media.

A frustrated Jerry Jones had some comments about the sun impacting play at AT&T Stadium: “By the way, we know where the sun is going to be when we decide to flip the coin or not. We do know where the damn sun is going to be in our own stadium.”Why not put up curtains over the windows?Jerry: “Well let’s tear the damn stadium down and build another one? Are you kidding me?“Everybody has got the same thing. Every team that comes in here has the same issues.“I’m saying, the world knows where the sun is. You get to know that almost a year in advance. Someone asked me about the sun. What about the sun? Where’s the moon?”rm%5E1855776226578743361%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=

They also knew where the sun would be when they built the damn stadium.

Maybe this should be added as an option for winning the coin toss: kick, receive, defer, select a field direction, or close the curtains. 

[AbeFroman 3113]

Houston is -7 next week.  I can't for the life of me see that being a close game.  That looks like too easy of a bet.

I think that's right.  But at the same time, that doesn't really answer the question--underground infrastructure could've been moved.  They moved plenty of roads in that area to accommodate various stadium projects--some water lines and fiberoptic cable shouldn't have stood in the way.

I think the real answer is that he wanted it on an axis to open onto The Ballpark in Arlington.  Jerry wanted his stadium and its big glass wall to glower down on the perpetually cellar-dwelling Rangers.

Of course, now the Rangers have a new stadium that is off that axis.  The former Ballpark is now home to some minor-league football team, which really causes one to wonder about a future in which the NFL embraces relegation.

This is the answer.  This is 100% the answer.

Watch them close the curtains and they win that game, he'll make it seem like he had a hand in the W.

Yep.  It was definitely an alpha move by Jerry.  Oh, you’ve been in Arlington since 1972?  Who the fuck cares.  You ain’t won shit. We’re the Dallas Cowboys.  This is our big ass stadium.

The beauty is that since AT&T Stadium opened, the Cowboys haven’t won shit and the Rangers have 3 ALCS titles and 1 World Series title.  And now their own shiny new retractable roof stadium.  

I’ve been to AT&T Stadium twice in my life, even though I am 40 minutes away.  I went to a Cowboys pre-season game using free tickets from a friend, just to say I’ve been to the stadium.  And a Guns N Roses concert that was decent.  The sound wasn’t great, but neither was Axl’s voice.  I don’t have any plans to ever go back.  I don’t want to give Jerry any more money.
