Jerry Jones is dumb as a motherfucker

Jerry Jones in this era of the NFL is to Dallas as Ronald McDonald is to the McDonalds franchise. Is he a good mascot for the Cowboys? Yes indeed, much like Ronald is for the largest chain of fast food restaurants. There's that persona of his that is good for certain areas of the business, like calling for the big-scale state of the art icon of excess that is the new Cowboys stadium. Texans have never been efficient at anything really, so it fits in.

Then there's the more complicated business side of the organization. I don't think there's a Ronald McDonald in McDonalds headquarters ordering the executives to institute a new balloon animal training requirement policy for its employees. Comparatively, I think Jones is inept at operating his franchise the way he has in the NFL in its current form.

Jerry doesn't seem to think so in the least, even though 12 of the 16 teams in the hunt are led by first time head coaches and the last two coaches he had probably had more prior HCing experience between them than just about any other combination you can think of, yet could only provide 1 measly playoff win.

I hope he's dumb enough to let Garrett out of the Arlington playpen. The guy's very capable of leading a team. I think he's proven that when he inherits a 1-7 team with a backup QB and has them 4-3 and in three games lost by a total of like 7 points

      THIS MIGHT PISS OFF SOME STEVE SMITH SR. FANS:  He WAS detrimental to this team.  Sure, he is on the hall of fame ballot and is probably our best player ever--but he punched 2 teammates--and that is the tip of the glacier.  Remember, I watched him haze and belittle Dwayne Jarrett at an OTA. Jarrett even reacted by giving me a hard hand slap when I mentioned it to him--.  I know bullying when I see it (educator who has written books about trauma caused by abuse and bullying) I have commented on the fact that nobody seemed to be friends with Smith except Kasay.  He was a bully and the coaches allowed it. Bunch of Alpha males chewing the tall grass. Here is a list of all the WRs Steve Smith 'mentored" after they were drafted:  2003: Walter Young 2004: Keary Colbert, Drew Carter 2007: Dwayne Jarrett, Rhyne Robinson 2010: Brandon Lafell,  Armanti Edward, David Gettis 2011: Kealoha Pilares 2012: Joe Adams That is 10 WRs drafted and only 1 had some degree of success, Brandon Lafell, who averaged around 600 yards a season for 8 years in the NFL--it is noteworthy that his numbers increased after leaving Carolina for NE.   This proves nothing, but it is interesting and coincides with the list of free agents we brought in during that time.  My argument:  It is possible that whatever Smith contributed to this team could be a result of bullying others into more diminished roles--Smith called it competition, and in fairness, he was the hardest practicing player I ever watched at OTAs over the years.  But it seems he was Napoleonic in his approach to teammates, possibly damaging the unit and keeping young players from developing--transitioning from college to the pros must be intimidating--especially when an established player is constantly attacking (challenging, to Smith) you as you are trying to learn the plays and culture.  It was so bad when I saw him doing it to Jarrett, it pissed me off.  I think Jarrett was pretty slow and was unsure of the plays etc--it was his rookie OTAs.  This is not proof, just an interesting possibility.  If you have ever had someone at your place of employment with some authority start harassing you, you might understand how a 21-year old kid might feel.
