One of them is inarguably “flare” (more on that in a little bit) but the other seems to be apathy. Through all of the press conferences, interviews and really any session behind a microphone and in front of a camera (why do we call those behind and in front if they are the same thing, effectively?) Dallas Cowboys brass has been asked if they sense the apathy that seems to be percolating among the fans of the team.
Some are upset about the lack of free agency acquisitions. Others are bothered by no long-term extensions for the big three. Ultimately you would be hard pressed to find someone who feels like this has all gone according to a plan that they agree with.
If you were unaware, Jerry Jones does a series of sit down interviews with the local markets in the initial days of everyone being in Oxnard. This also includes a conversation with the mothership.
Jerry sat down with Nick Harris and I highly recommend watching it in its entirety.
Both Jerry and Stephen Jones talked about season ticket sales and the rate of renewals during the team’s opening press conference last week and that caused some eyes to roll. We noted in the recap of that presser and will again here that it was brought up specifically to combat the idea of fan apathy. This hardly feels good or cool to see as a fan, but in a literal way what Jerry is saying makes sense. Obviously no fans benefit from that, though.
