he borrowed a million dollars from Jimmy Hoffa's Teamsters union to open up a string of Shakey's Pizza Parlor restaurants
When that venture failed, Jones was given a job as executive vice president at his father's insurance company
After several other unsuccessful business ventures (including an attempt, again using Teamsters money, to purchase the San Diego Chargers
he began an oil and gas exploration business in Arkansas, Jones Oil and Land Lease, which became successful
self made in the sense he had access to large sums of money via loans that were seemingly covered by his dad, who gave had a cushy executive job waiting for him if things ever went bad

It is not accurate to call Jerry Jones a "nepo baby," as his fortune was not inherited. While he benefited from his family's connections and initial support, Jones built his wealth primarily through his own business ventures in oil and gas before buying the Dallas Cowboys.
Details on the origin of Jerry Jones's wealth:
Family background: Jones's parents were entrepreneurs who started with two grocery stores in North Little Rock, Arkansas. Later, his father became the president of Modern Security Life Insurance Co., which became very profitable.
Early assistance: After college, Jones had some failed business ventures, including an attempt to open pizza restaurants using a $1 million loan from the Teamsters. His father also talked him out of buying the San Diego Chargers in the 1960s.
Work for family business: After his pizza business failed, Jones joined his father's insurance company as an executive vice president. When the company was sold, Jones reportedly received $500,000.
Oil and gas speculation: Using funds that may have included his share from the family business, Jones founded the company Jones Oil and Land Lease in Arkansas. The venture was extremely successful, with Jones reportedly striking oil in 12 of his first 13 wells. This success is the foundation of his immense fortune.
Purchase of the Dallas Cowboys: In 1989, at age 46, Jones used his oil and gas fortune to purchase the Dallas Cowboys for $140 million. He built the struggling franchise into one of the most profitable in sports history, increasing his wealth exponentially.

Although I think with all this said, it makes me think he is more of a nepo-baby because his father's connections made life easy on him, and he could make mistake after mistake until striking gold

More or less the same, Russ is situational just as much as Flacco it isnāt a popularity contest
Jameis Winston is the backup for Russ
Jameis Winston is āserviceableā
As you see Russ went to the Steelers and had a playoff team the year after Pickett couldnāt bring them to that level, Flacco every now and then has his games in Indy he was iffy, just like how Russ was iffy on the Broncos, like I said before for them at their age its a situational league for them, depends on what team they are on that will bring something out of them
You guys can crap on his character but I donāt know what he did wrong as a person, if I donāt like them as a man I will treat them as that, but there is a difference between calling someone trash and then just having an incentive to just hate them
Russ is not like DeShaun Watson or Big Ben or Michael Vick who have questionable character so the slander is ridiculous š

i like russ more than most ppl here, but even so its pretty clear he hasnt been a winning or even serviceable QB for the past couple of years. steelers went 10-7 and got their asses kicked in the WC both in pickett's last year and russ's first year, and that was also including the first couple weeks where fieldsanity happened too
it's basically been their MO the past 4 years or so
true elbow

I mean Russ is nothing like what he used to be, I donāt think he ever will get back his level of where he was at the beginning of his career, I think as long as he isnāt on a good team (like the Giants or Broncos at that time) he will be okay nothing amazing but just okay
So on New York I think he is gonna be cheeks and thats just the way its gonna be
olive knot
i guess that was the point i was trying to make, if we're comparing him to flacco they're basically at the same place in their careers where they're just a bridge for their franchise's next QB. the only difference is the browns don't know whether they have theirs even rostered while the Giants think they do

My hatred chart of the division flipped when I graduated college
It was packers, bears, vikings because of kirk, but now its vikings, bears, packers because I tutored Reed in math a couple times in college and I want JJ to fail
true elbow
Hmm
Well for me the Bears will always be first, that aināt changing no matter how ass they are, I will never forget my first couple years understanding football Bears fans would talk shit about the division and take low blows
The Vikings are 2nd, when I grew up watching football the Vikings usually were our competition, and I grew up around teachers that bragged about the Vikings too

looking at the standings after 3 weeks and a few things stick out:
AFC has only six teams with a winning record: Bills, Chargers, Bengals, Steelers, Colts, Jaguars.
and four teams have yet to win a game: Jets, Dolphins, Texans, Titans
compare that to the NFC: ten teams with a winning record, only two teams yet to win a game

https://sny.tv/articles/jaxson-dart-nfl-debut-start-something-giants-9282025
EAST RUTHERFORD ā Jaxson Dart was among the few players remaining in the Giants locker room. You could tell he was sore. The way he moved from the far corner showers to his stall, how he now stood collecting himself. Those six sacks and 10 hits laid on him by the Chargers defense took their toll.
Thatās when Brian Daboll joined his quarterback. The two had already embraced each other on the field, but this was different. It was quieter now, less around. Daboll reached his hand out, grabbed the back of Dartās neck and brought him close. They held each other. Daboll then walked away with a smile.
This felt like the start of something.
