It was about as clear of a glimpse into his fucked up thought processes as you are going to get.
That is exactly right. It's why every second cousin, grandkid or whoever gets a top level job in the organization.

It feels so long ago that Jerry was throwing that massive contract at Deion. That Jerry went away a long time ago though. Ever since Stephen started having real input this team has turned ultra cheap.

Of course Jerry never cared for paying coaches. He has always thought it was about the players and not the coach. But in today's world of salary cap and parity that dumbass doesn't realize that the real advantage you can get over other teams is your coaching staff and training staff.

If Zimmer is a front runner, God help us.

But then again, pretty much anyone who would take this shit job carries the same sort of hesitation from me.
Exactly.

The Giants fired three straight coaches (McAdoo, Shurmur, Judge) after only two years, meaning they owed them millions. They didn't care about saving money; they cared about fixing a mistake.
:lol

They might have cared, but they sure failed.

And at the end of the day, those same dummies have trophies in the case since we got our last one in the early 1990s.

I am well beyond celebrating our two-fer, the distress of the missed three-peat and then the third title.

The emotional capital of that wore off for me a long time ago and should have worn off by now for anyone with a functional brain.

But hey, we can snicker all we want at all three of our divisional rivals, but it could be a case where pretty soon, our jokes will run out.

Like I said there will be no real coaching search or interview process. It's going to be a drawn out joke. We won't even talk to real top candidates. We will interview a couple minorities that no one heard of and then make a decision on somebody that is washed up or has family (player/coach) ties to the Cowboys.

You are incorrect.

We will interview the likes of Rivera and other persons of color that you HAVE heard of.

:lol Nobody was talking about who won what or when. I was laughing at their string of coaching fuckups. Which they're still riding. So, yeah. We can snicker all we want at the giants. They're a bigger dumpster fire than we are. It's ok. You don't have to be a giant fucking pant load of baby shit all the time, booze. It's ok to laugh at the giants. You don't have to invent shit to grrrr at.

How in the hell did you get that from me laughing at the Giants hiring guys like Joe Judge? That was what, 3-4 years ago?

Outside of franchise valuation, this franchise has very little to hang its hat on any longer. When we were kids the mantra was, "The Cowboys haven't won a Super Bowl since 1978". Three decades later the 90's success is the punch line.

When it's all said and done none of this means a damn thing and it's just a diversion. But we've all invested the time for whatever reason and it'd be nice to see a serious effort made. I understand protecting the bottom line but what I'll never understand is refusing to invest in the product on the field. It's never made sense and it never will...but it sure as hell is going to continue on like this and we all know it.

College makes sense for him. Not a great coach but use that personality and stardom to get top recruits to then out talent other college programs.
Well, he didn't say he was staying.

Right now, I'd say Deion is the front runner until he declares otherwise.

We married this guy last year. Nothing will change about that.

Going forward, the decisions we make will involve him.

From head coach, even down to personnel.

That is the problem with how we do things.

If you get paid, you get made.
This is largely true, certainly the conventional wisdom, and all the more likely because of how unrelentingly cheap Jerry is.

But Denver chose a different path.
