Next came the five-year agreement to make McCarthy the ninth head coach in Cowboys history.
Said McCarthy in a question about the appeal to this job: “It’s the Dallas Cowboys. I don’t think you need to go further than that.”
Jones said McCarthy’s experience with a “storied and historic franchise” in Green Bay was a factor in the decision to put him in power for “America’s Team.” And then, at he frequently does when in a particularly giddy mood, Jones decided to “work blue,” almost using a cuss word to describe his excitement over the belief that McCarthy can meet the “very high” expectations that are part of the dinner in Dallas.
Jones talked of love and marriage and relationships – and how they sometimes lose their luster – before putting a punctuation mark on his emotions.
