I don't think Jerry is doing anything positive right now, in the past you could say he was aggressive making moves and reliable in extending our stars.

Now he's just a distraction.

So when he's gone it'll just be more of the same that were saying right now except without the distractions, so not great, but still better.

I mean this is odds on the likely outcome. I do think you'd see a difference in the way guys like Parson's contract are dealt with. I'm just not sure if it would end in contracts getting worked out earlier or if it would end up with Rosie actually letting some star players walk. Ultimately Jerry I think still holds on to how the team deals with star players. No one is getting Parson's contract done without Jerry's approval and strategy. Do I think Jerry is involved with the lesser players? The Ferguson's of the world? Probably not. Jerry has Blue Label to drink and doesn't have time to bother with those deals. Heck, he probably barely knows who the guy is. Stephen probably doesn't either. I'll never forget Stephen not knowing how to pronounce Biadasz's name despite the guy starting in Dallas for like 4 years. It still blows my mind that these dopes can know less about the team and players than the people on this message board who have real lives and careers outside of the Cowboys.

The Rangers did win the World Series.

If that doesn't prove that anything is possible, nothing will.

I'm 40 so that may be pushing it for me. Maybe when I'm a grandpa I can tell my grandchildren that they have some form of hope.

Which means there's a chance you remember SB30. What about 27 and 28?

What I was getting at is I dont think it will matter. You can do all of that stuff and Stephen will fuck it up in different ways.

May be different but I believe its going to be the same results.

So I remember 27 and 28 somewhat. I also remember Superbowl 29 and my heartbreak when we lost to the 49ers in the playoffs. I remember the playoffs and Superbowl 30 very vividly. The interesting thing about that age though is I have zero recollection of the time right before the Cowboys started winning Superbowls when we bottomed out entirely. I was just too young at that point to have any understanding of what was going on.

Laying around injured for 3 years collecting an NFL salary is a nice way to start a portfolio if you're smart.

Remember Fat Mike took a shine to him and several others.

That is one thing that a lot of people fail to understand about is how we draft in the moment, crossing our fingers that we got it right because we have a severely fucked up structure and process.

That is what happens when you have an absentee GM.
