Reeves left after 2 days…Jerrah doesn’t want to give up any of his “power” over personnel or play calling. Jerrah must be trying to do it all…owner, GM and HC, and doesn’t want someone who will question any of his decisions.
Jones needs to use some of his cash and buy a clue….

I would suggest that Reeves got there with the idea he would have some say over personnel. When he arrived he said he wanted to dump TO, and Jones told him to go sh1t in his hat.

Disclosure is a good thing in the NFL. Right now, Jerry’s asking Cowboy fans in DFW to fork over a ton of money for seats in the new stadium. Anything that can be done to give them confidence in the team probably helps.
Of course, I don’t know that this episode would inspire any confidence in anybody, full disclosure or otherwise. The franchise is rapidly turning (back) into a joke.

The contract provision that prevented the deal required Reeves to address Jerry Jones as “Boss Hog”. Jones just couldn’t let it be removed from the agreement.

Thank goodness I hadn’t finished typing in my credit card order for the Welcome fruit basket.
P.S., Jerry’s ruined my childhood favorite team and Owens is pissing in the corner.

Why not just say, ‘We talked but could not reach an agreement.’ and leave it at that?

Because it’s the Cowboys and everyone in world must put in their two cents about the who, why, and what.

He clearly has too much character and spine to be a member of the Cowboys trainwreck.
