The Hollywood Reporter asks brothers Chapman and Maclain Way — and Netflix VP of sports, Gabe Spitzer — just why the streamer loves the Dallas Cowboys so damn much.
When Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys in February 1989 and then fired legendary head coach Tom Landry, much of the franchise’s fandom was unhappy with the Arkansas oil man, as detailed in Netflix's 'America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys.
Love him or hate him, Jerry Jones' impact on the NFL, and thus on American culture, is undeniable. He took a popular sport, and through his relentless gambles and media savvy, pushed it to the center of American entertainment skyrocketing its value into the billions of dollars.
A viral clip of Jerry Jones from the new Dallas Cowboys Netflix documentary reveals what the owner wants in a head coach.
In Netflix's new docuseries, America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys, Jones detailed how he came very close to purchasing the San Diego Chargers when he was 28 years old. According to Jones, he got the Teamsters, a labor union led by the controversial Jimmy Hoffa, to help him finance 10 pizza parlors.
The Cowboys remain one of the most recognizable brands in sports. The new Netflix docuseries delivers candid tales of the '90s dynasty.
Tony Romo in the Netflix Cowboys series says he believes Dallas has had teams over the last 30 years good enough to win the Super Bowl. They just didn’t have the key play or key quarter. Romo: “You want to blame Jerry for those things? It’s hard for me to ever think that.” pic.twitter.com/AhxKdKyYjv
