Goodness, I understand that perspective, we all get it. Let\u2019s just say what\u2019s going on here is we\u2019re not winning, we\u2019re not playing the way we want to be, the way I want to be, the way any of us want to be. And when you do that, you check your whole card with everything you\u2019re doing. You check where you spend your time, how you spend it, and that\u2019s what\u2019s going on here. It\u2019s no secret at all that ever since I\u2019ve been involved, my days are involved, in a manner of speaking, in many areas. I frankly don\u2019t know many people in football that don\u2019t have their days involved in different areas. To the degree is of course debatable. This is called professional football to make a point. That means it takes money to make it all go. Money. And so that any time, that I\u2019m doing anything that\u2019s away from looking at a specific player and how he\u2019s playing defense, it has to do with the latter. And ultimately, that latter leads ultimately to the benefit of the Cowboys. Me sitting here talking on this phone with you, the visits that I\u2019m having with our fans through you, that\u2019ll help score touchdowns. Because it ultimately involves in a way that makes it doable, and there\u2019s no, in the real world, Santa Claus does not put the tricycle on the Christmas tree, we all know that. You have to have juice to make it go. So I\u2019ve always combined and never been unabashed about it since the day I walked in. Every day, every time I can, I\u2019m looking for ways to give advantages to the Dallas Cowboys. Anybody that says I don\u2019t focus on the Cowboys is just living in the moment of frustration, and I get that, and I\u2019m frustrated too.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cWe probably will get criticized if we aren\u2019t doing that.
