Things aren’t going so well for Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys coming off an embarrassing 47-9 loss to the Detroit Lions at home.
During his weekly radio appearance Tuesday on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas, the Cowboys owner appeared to threaten the jobs of the hosts Shan Shariff, R.J. Choppy and Bobby Belt after they asked Jones about some of the issues with the Cowboys roster.
“Listen, let me tell you what I’ll do about it, I will let us sit down and look at the decisions we’ve made over the last several years. OK? I’ll look at it,” Jones said Tuesday on 105.3 The Fan in Dallas. “Now if you think I’m interested on a damn phone call with you over the radio and sitting here and throwing all the good out with the dishwater, you’d have got to be smoking something over there this morning. I’m not. And I really don’t … and I don’t even want our listeners listening to me talk about. This is not your job. Your job isn’t to let me go over the reasons that I did something and I’m sorry that I did it. That’s not your job.
“That’s not your job or I’ll get somebody else to ask these questions, men. No, no. I’m not kidding.”
Here’s the full clip:
