Even as a Longhorn grad I cringed when I heard what Jerry gave up for Roy. It appears eerily similar to me… Even as a Longhorn grad I cringed when I heard what Jerry gave up for Roy.

I sure hope not but the end of the season didn't look that great for it. I wonder who the Lions will get out of it. Does the Roy Williams trade = the Joey G Trade?

Yeah, he wishes he had done it differently. Then pushed Tex Schramm out the door two months later? In the article, Jimmy Johnson is quoted as saying that Jerry Jones had to do it. Certainly Jimmy hasn't forgotten what Jerry Jones did to him five years later? 20 years later, nothing has changed. This isn't your oil business, Jerry. Oil consumers may forgive your business practices if they get what they want at a decent price. They may not even know about the internal affairs of your oil business. But this is the Dallas Cowboys! Everything that goes on within the organization is exposed and even though it's been 20 years and three Super Bowl wins later, people still don't forget the handling of Tom Landry. That man was larger than Texas! He could have run for mayor of any Texas town and win big. He could have run for governor as many times as he wanted and there would be no contest. People still haven't forgotten that. The mishandling of Jimmy Johnson didn't help either. You just can't run the Dallas Cowboys with the same business practices of the oil industry, Jerry. By the way, I've been wanting to ask you this question since the early 90's. Who runs your oil business now? I know it can't be you. You've been too busy over-running the Dallas Cowboys. Just curious.
