We win, anyone putting away their pitchforks and torches yet?

Not me, because I've been teased like this far too many times already. yeah, the homer in me gets happy for a win after such ugly losses, but the realist in me who sees long term thinks this was not the time to rebound because it hurts draft position as well as keeps Garrett around longer.

This time there is evidence of less than sell outs at the Death Star. This pic is around the time of the coin flip.
Someone who was at the game mentioned that more fans did come into the stadium but he estimated it was only 80% full. I've also been reading that fans are having a hard time selling their tickets. Pretty much can't give them away.
As I tried to explain last week. Jerry purposely did it this way so the fans wouldn't have the voice they used to have in the old stadium. Back then when we didn't show for games it really hurt his pocketbook. Only way to hurt him by voting with our dollars is a complete boycott on swag sales. Just STOP buying Cowboys shit.The article I posted stated that Thursday’s game did indeed sell out
But that the fans couldn’t sell off their tickets and did not show up
So what does Jerry care?
He sold his tickets either way
Attendance doesn’t matter
Money matters
And he got his money!
Plus the stats will still show that it was a sold out game
So Jerry is good
E-Zackly. By design.Jerry has set up a winner even when his team is a losing commodity
You're right though -- on merchandise sales, Jerry is the only one who opted out and gets it all himself.As I tried to explain last week.

Even that is blunted somewhat by the league's revenue sharing program but still, it's the only way to have any real impact.
