This asshole really went down to the sideline to "advise" his head coach? This guy ran a oil surveying business, he has no idea how to run a football team. We can only hope this keeps up. I'm loving to see this as a Skins fan.

You do know that Jerry Jones was the captain of the Arkansas football team that won the National Championship back in the 60s, right? Oh, and Jimmy Johnson was his teammate - - and I think they were fraternity brothers also - - at Arkansas.

He did indeed run an oil service business; that is where he made the money it took to buy the Cowboys. But Jones did play the game at a fairly high level.

Having said all that, I doubt that his "advice" was of any value to Jason Garrett who was probably juggling ten balls in the air at the same time. But do not make the mistake of assuming that Jerry Jones knows nothing about football the way many NFL owners know nothing about football.
