Slurring Jerry Jones Bad-Mouths Bill Parcells, Tim Tebow
Edited on Wed Apr-14-10 12:49 PM by JonLP24
Jerry Jones: Romo was a miracle.

Other guy: It was a miracle, wasn't it?

JJ: He almost never got in, and he almost was gone. Tebow would never…

Different other guy: What if you were the Jaguars or — would you just, just draft him and sell fucking jerseys?

JJ: That's the only reason I brought in Bill Parcells.

(Laughter)

JJ: (Inaudible. Sounds a little like, "Sell mammoth fuckin' rake," whatever that means.)

JJ: Bill's not worth a shit. I love him.

7. From the Dallas Morning News...
Cowboys owner-general manager Jerry Jones could have some explaining to do to former Cowboys coach Bill Parcells and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.

The Web site Deadspin.com on Tuesday posted a 47-second amateurish video in which a free-talking Jones used colorful language to describe Parcells and draft-eligible quarterback Tim Tebow. It appears Jones was secretly filmed, and the men questioning him in a public setting could not be identified.

Jones was ambivalent about Parcells, saying, "He's not worth a . I love him."

Jones said he hired Parcells as coach to help get a new stadium.

"They were on my so bad," Jones said. "Jerry's got to have a yes man. So to get this stadium, I need to bring his in."

Jones acknowledged that line of thinking could make a team select Tebow in next week's draft. Jones said the Cowboys would not take Tebow because "he'd never get on the field."

Rich Dalrymple, the Cowboys' director of public relations, said the club had no comment. Parcells, who resigned after the 2006 season, could not be reached for comment, but he has described his relationship with Jones as friendly.

Jones could run afoul of NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. The commissioner has used the wide-ranging personal-conduct policy to police the behavior of NFL employees.

"As an employee of the NFL or a member club, you are held to a higher standard," Goodell said when the beefed-up policy was announced.

Greg Aiello, the NFL's senior vice president of public relations, said the league was not aware of the Jones video.

9. One superbowl with Barry Switzer and ONE playoff win in a decade.

And personally, I don't see a SB appearance anytime soon with the sucky current coach. They have been consistent underachievers for awhile now.

11. I don't see what the problem is with the Tebow comments...
Edited on Wed Apr-14-10 05:57 PM by hughee99
Dallas has a good, quality young starting QB. Why waste a draft pick on a backup? The backup wouldn't (and shouldn't) see the field. If the backup does ever get in, you want a veteran, not a rookie development project.
