I hadn't heard that, but I suspected it. I've been getting about three emails a week trying to get me to spend a couple of hundred on some of those stupid Texas Stadium seats they're ripping out and will throw away if fans don't buy them. They've also held about ten "Closing Texas Stadium" events. Just started getting emails trying to get me to buy pieces of Texas Stadium Astroturf. The most expensive seat license is $150,000 for a thirty year license, and you have to buy season tickets every year at $340 per game. Least expensive ticket is $59 way up in the corner.
Here's Jerry's problem: As soon as Parcells started turning the team around, Jerry decided he wanted to run things again. Parcells leaves and takes the Cowboys brain trust with him to Miami. Jerry's kids are left. Jerry gives huge contracts to Roy Williams (about to be cut), Flozelle Adams (good for two false starts a game), Anthony Henry (traded for a backup QB), T.O. (just cut), Tony Romo (paid like Brady, ain't playing like Brady), and several others.
Soooooo, the Cowboys are opening up a 1.4 BILLION dollar stadium with a team that was barely above .500 last year, and IMHO, will be fortunate to be .500 this year. The Cowboys aren't the Browns or Eagles. Those fans will show up no matter what. When the Cowboys dropped to .500, they were playing to 20,000 empty seats in a 60,000 seat stadium. They're going to 80,000 seats at higher prices and Wade Phillips is less popular than Switzer in Cowboyland right now.
Yep, at least it was never boring with Switzer.
Fixed it.
Crayton, Roy Williams, Miles Austin, Sam Herd.....
“They’ve also held about ten “Closing Texas Stadium” events.”
Cher has had less farewell concert tours and had the same amount of plastic surgery as Jerry Jones.
Cher > Jerry Jones
