Cat's Out of the Bag

The Dallas "Cowboys" lost another tackle football game today, in Philadelphia to the "Pigeons." It has been a surpassingly disappointing season for the '"Boys" who really do have tons of talent and a very active, knowledgeable owner, similar to what Arsenal have in Stan Kroenke and Man United have in the Glazer brothers. But anyway. Jerry Jones, '"Pokes" owner, for some reason has employed "Jason" "Garrett" as his head coach for like ten years. Dallas has not done shit in longer than ten years but specifically they have not done shit in Jason Garrett's ten years. Every year brings a chorus of "Garrett Out" demands from Jerry World and every year Jerry has stuck with him.

The consensus however is that today was the real final straw for Jones and that his long overdue cashiering of Garrett will finally occur after next week's game, the last in this miserable season in Big D, against Washington. The candidates Jones has in mind to replace Garrett are not known definitively. There was a report that Dallas had sounded New Orleans "Saints" head man Sean Payton out before this season. The ubiquitous Urban Meyer and Greg Schiano are thought to be high on Jones' list. But Jones has always thought Big and thought outside the box and today he may have given away who the real new man is going to be.
That is former University of Michigan head coach Brady Hoke with Jones before today's game. Hoke sat with Jones in the owner's box in Philly. Hoke has no NFL head coaching experience; either does Urban Meyer; neither did Jimmy Johnson. Schiano does, and was a dumpster fire with Tampa Bay (also owned by the Glazers, btw). Schiano is also a control freak who would chafe under Jones. A well-respected Yahoo sportswriter, whose name I done forgot thought Meyer also would find it difficult to work under Jones. (The unrespected proprietor of this here blog, on the other hand, thinks Meyer would thrive under Jones and deliver Dallas a Super Bowl. So take your pick.) But Brady Hoke knows Jerry Jones, Jerry Jones is a friend of his, Senator you're if working under Jones would be a problem for Meyer and Schiano it would NOT for Hoke. You heard it hear first: Brady Hoke, Dallas "Cowboys" new head coach.
