Jerry Jones continues to believe all publicity is good publicity
While it's likely that some within the NFL's overall apparatus will find a reason to formulate four-letter words about things said and/or written by ESPN employees once the NFL owns 10 percent of the four-letter network, one person will never complain. Cowboys owner and G.M. Jerry Jones does not care what anyone says about him or his team. He just wants them to be said. Being talked about means being relevant. Being relevant means being interesting. Being interesting means being profitable. 'I do believe if we're not being looked at then I'll do my part to get us looked at,' Jones said at the Netflix premiere of the new docuseries about him and his team. 'The beautiful thing for networks or, if you will, streaming companies, is that the NFL is a 365-day-a-year interest factory. A lot of programming, you have to spend as much to promote it as you do to make it. The Cowboys are a soap opera 365 days a year. When it gets slow, I'll stir it up. 'And so, oh, it's wonderful to have the great athletes, have the great players, but there's something more there. There's sizzle, there's emotion and, if you will, there's controversy. That controversy is good stuff, in terms of keeping and having people's attention.' While some may think Jerry is taking it too far since that approach tends to undermine his presumed objectives, it could be a mistake to presume that his primary objective is winning Super Bowls. His primary objective could be to retain the title of America's Team. His primary objective could be to make as much money as possible by making his team as interesting as possible. The rest of the league benefits from the Cowboys' notoriety. For each of those Dallas games that millions can't miss, there's another team playing. And the higher the Cowboys' profile, the higher the league's profile. As it relates to media coverage, Jerry gets it. Every company that covers the NFL promotes the NFL's product as no charge to the NFL. The very existence of this outlet, which launched 25 years ago next November, has been to promote the NFL's product at no charge to the NFL. That's been my life, for a long time. Promoting the NFL's product at no charge to the NFL. I'm not complaining. I've enjoyed it. I still do. And I've made more than a little money at it. But I've also made more than a little money for the NFL, by promoting the NFL's product at no charge to the NFL. The Cowboys have never complained about anything I've ever said or written about them. And I've said and written plenty of critical things. Of course, not everyone who relies on The Shield feels that way. Some, if not many, prefer the free publicity on their own terms, heavy on praise and light on scrutiny. For that reason, plenty of folks who work for the league and its teams won't be thrilled about my next book, which explores topics the league would rather leave unexplored. But Jerry Jones will love it. Because Big Shield, while an objectively entertaining and compelling story (if you don't believe me, roll the dice with your 99 cents) and officially not about the NFL, also operates as a 385-page advertisement for the NFL's 365-day-a-year product. At no cost to the NFL.

Jerry Jones reveals 2010 cancer diagnosis in new documentary
Jerry Jones reveals he battled cancer in an upcoming Netflix documentary series about the Dallas Cowboys. In an episode of "America's Team: The Gamble and His Cowboys," the 10-part documentary series scheduled to premier next Tuesday, Jones mentions that he underwent cancer treatment "about a dozen years ago." On Wednesday morning, the Dallas Morning News reported that Jones overcame stage 4 melanoma after a decade-long battle beginning with his diagnosis in 2010. "I was saved by a fabulous treatment and great doctors and a real miracle [drug] called PD-1 [therapy]," Jones told the Dallas Morning News. "I went into trials for that PD-1 and it has been one of the great medicines. "I now have no tumors." REVIEW: 'America's Team' Netflix series a fascinating look at Jerry Jones, Cowboys According to the American Cancer Society, PD-1 therapy targets the PD-1 protein on immune cells. PD-1 is a "checkpoint protein" that can prevent immune cells called "T cells" from attacking normal cells. However, some cancer cells have enough of PDL-1, a different protein that bonds with PD-1 and allows it to prevent attacks from the immune system. The goal of checkpoint protein-related therapy is to block PD-1 from bonding with PDL-1, essentially allowing the body's immune system to attack other cells more freely. The aim is to "help the immune system to better find and attack the cancer cells, wherever they are in the body," but it can lead to some brutal side effects as the immune system might attack other, healthy cells in the body. Jones' stage 4 cancer diagnosis means that the cancer cells from his melanoma had spread to other parts of his body, which is what led to his four surgeries surgeries on his lungs and lymph nodes. According to the American Cancer Society, melanoma patients who have had their cancer metastasize to "distant parts of the body, such as the lungs, liver, or skin, or lymph nodes" have a five-year survival rate of 35%. Jones was one of the fortunate survivors of his battle.

‘Create some championships or shut up': Fans slam Cowboys owner Jerry Jones over 30-year hiatus
(Image via Getty: Jerry Jones and his wife Eugenia Jones pose with Michael Irvin at the America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys' premiere) Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones recently attended the premiere of the Netflix series, 'America's Team,' at The Egyptian Theatre Hollywood in Los Angeles, California. Jones shared a vital fact about the Cowboys at the premiere. The 82-year-old American billionaire businessman said, 'The Cowboys enjoy great visibility in all of the cities and towns that aren't NFL teams. We have a very big following, both the ones that want to see us getting our ass kicked and the ones that want to see us win.' A video clip from the premiere was shared by Jon Machota of The Athletic on X. One X user commented, 'Create some championships, Jerry, or shut up.' Another said, 'The first group of followers have been winning for 3 decades, unfortunately.' A third fan wrote, 'So what, same story since the 1900s.' What was the story? Let's find out. It needs to have some conflict and some interest Jerry Jones shared at the premiere that the Dallas Cowboys team could win three Super Bowls in the 1990s because they had equal amounts of 'conflict' and 'interest'. Elaborating on that very point, the owner said, 'The Cowboys enjoy great visibility in all of the cities and towns that aren't NFL teams. We have a very big following, both the ones that want to see us getting our ass kicked and the ones that want to see us win. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ngamprah: Unsold Sofas Prices May Surprise You (Prices May Surprise You) Sofas | Search Ads Search Now Undo Now, that's not the NFL cities. In those cities, we've got a good chance of being the one that wants to beat the most or the other, bless all of them - not just the ones for the Cowboys. And you say, well, what are you, Jerry? What I am is I want the interest, that kind of interest up there, and that interest doesn't just need to be powder-puff stuff. It needs to have some conflict; it needs to have some interest. Well, this group sitting right here(former players from the 1990s Dallas Cowboys team) knew how to have a little conflict and a little interest around there. You're good, seriously, in a very, very good way. That is a part of what our story is about - creating that interest and keeping it coming because Netflix has such a breadth of visibility. What I'm proud of is that we can do our part in adding a little special interest because it's got something to do with the Dallas Cowboys. Maybe we'll get out of here tonight, Michael(Irvin), and give them something else to be interested in. Michael - in the Hall of Fame. John Madden said - What I'm interested in is what happens when they shut the doors and the lights go down and the bus of all the Hall of Famers, these two guys are in it–what happens is when the lights are down, doors are shut, then the bus in there starts talking. Michael and I were down there for, I guess, we were talking on the stage, and I said - Michael, we'll be the first two that sneak out.' Fans severely criticize Jerry Jones for not winning a championship in 30 years An X user bluntly wrote, '3 decades of the same nauseating comments. Get this clown away from the football team.' Another too, 'You've been irrelevant for 30 years you dope!' A fan felt, 'I get less interested every year & it's because of him & Stephen.' Another genuinely asked, 'Can he do anything for those that want to see him win?' A fan commented, 'Thanks to Jerry, the ones that want to see the Cowboys get their ass kicked have had a good thirty-year run. ' Another fan said, 'This guy. I can't watch it.' A third fan chimed in, 'Dude should be working on team and he's doing this crap.' A fourth fan frankly jotted, 'This guy just never shuts his fat mouth. He should be embarrassed that he's having docs made about our team from the 90s, but has nothing relevant to show from the present day. I wish he would sell the team. He doesn't care about winning.'
