Thoth Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 1. Their second dynasty contained delinquints like Irvin. They have actually won SBs with guys like this as key cogs. This gives Jones confidence that he can manange such players, and be successful with them. 2. They devote considerable effort to providing guidance for garbage like Pacman. They have a structure in place to keep tabs on such guys, educate them, rehab them, etc. 3. Jones thinks the Cowboys are only a few players away from winning a SB. 4. Putting my Cowboys hate on the shelf, I have to admit that picking up Tanked Johnson and Pacman the Paralyzer for next to nothing is fairly impressive on one level. Two almost-elite talents at very-difficult and expensive to fill positions, for peanuts. 5. Winning is more important to Jones than everything else. He'll sell his soul to win a SB again. Tanked Johnson is one thing, but signing a guy who paralyzed a man and has expressed ZERO remorse, has a sleaziness to it that is sickening. If I heard that someone shot Jones in the head point blank, I would just laugh, and figure he had it coming. Others may disagree and say we HAVE to win a SB, but football is still just a game, after all, and I would honestly rather not win a SB, than use a piece of garbage like Pacman to do so. You have to draw a line in the sand somewhere. Drinking and driving and other athlete schenanigans are one thing, but when you paralyze guys and try to beat-up lawyers who document and hold you accountable for your thuggery. . .you can't put a price on never dealing with such a skumbag. Pacman belongs in a penitentery (I'll pay for the stripper pole in his cell), or sitting paralyzed in a wheelchair like that bouncer. I'd never let Pacman in my house or business, would throw him out after I found him there (after arming myself, ha, ha) and wouldn't want him on our team. 4. Finally, I can't respect any QB (Romo sits to pee) that has his choice of hot chicks, and chooses old horse-face, Jessica Simpson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinthePRF Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The reason why the Cowboys can take the risk when no other team can is that they are one of the only teams where the GM and owner are one in the same. GMs don't want to afford to take a risk on a headache player because they could be held liable later if the player screws up again and brings down the team. Jerry doesn't need to worry about that because he won't fire himself. He can take a risk and screw up as much as he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get with the program. He compared our success to Dallas over the past decade. 2 playoff wins to 0. And Dallas hasn't won that trophy either so chill.

When the cowboys won their last 2 SBs they had a Hall fo Fame QB, RB, & WR on the team Cowboys today do not have a Hall of Fame QB OR a RB on their team Redskins do not have a Hall of Fame QB or WR on their team (Portis needs to flourish in our new offense and he MAY have a chance at the Hall of fame) I think the cowboys will eventually self destruct with all of the head cases on their team, where as the people on our team are people with Honor & integrity EDIT:I forgot to say the Skins and Cowboys both have 0 trophies in the past 10 years.

Califan007 The Constipated Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 With Dallas becoming the "Home of the Second Chance" and the Skins following the Gibbs "character" legacy, I can't help but wonder if we're losing out on valuable players at a fairly cheap price.If guys like TO, Tank Johnson and Pacman can keep their noses clean after a change of scenery then perhaps the Skins FO needs to revisit their FA or trade selection process. The clincher will be Pacman. He is more likely to get back into trouble than the other two but if he can keep his nose clean then I think the our FO might have to start considering guys with a past if it will help the team. Maybe, but you don't give players with "questionable character" to a first-time coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
