Moshier: Too much Jerry Jones

C’mon, NBC. Your “Football Night in America” this past Sunday was more like “Football Night in Dallas,” and the only thing worse than Tony Romo’s quarterbacking was the peacock network’s telecast.

 

Enough, already, with the palace in Dallas (actually Arlington) that Jerry built. Outside the lines, NBC’s coverage was overdone and overbearing. Real football fans are tuning in to watch the game, not a gloating Jerry Jones or the former First Lady parked in her luxury suite, right there between Jones’ wife and daughter. Find some other filler, please. Real football fans simply don’t care.

 

Real football fans already have seen more than enough of Jones. What other NFL owner gets more face time? And why him? What have his Cowboys done for him lately? Fortunately, thanks to Romo and the Giants’ last-second win, Jones wasn’t on the Cowboys’ sideline handing out high-fives.

 

You know he would’ve been there in the end, and you know NBC’s cameras would have found him. That’s too bad. Win or lose, we’ve all seen enough of Jerry Jones (unless, of course, he wanders too close to the real action and is accidently leg-whipped to the turf by Flozell Adams).
