Cowboys bring a sideshow along with a main event to Edward Jones
Jones is the straw that stirs this crazy concoction of misfits, headcases and incredible Pro Bowl talent that will either lead him to a Super Bowl title or drive him to insanity as he tries to buy his way back to the top of the NFL world.
He is building the most expensive football stadium in the world on the outskirts of Dallas that will hold 100,000 people and carries a price tag of $1 billion. But there's a bigger price for his enabling ways as he stops at nothing to go after players with big names, big games and oversized athletic egos.
By the end of this season, Jones may find out the hard way that's a price tag that may end up being a bit too extravagant even for his tastes.
