Edit: I dont know if you are a man of faith, but if you had happened to be in Texas that day and popped into the chapel for a little reaffirming of the faith would you have expected to see Coach Gibbs at the podium?? Lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Joe Gibbs Motivational Speaker For Dallas Cowboys
Five pages so far about a guy, who no longer is in the NFL, giving a speech to a team in his home town, the night before a game. SMH
Where the **** is Allen Iverson at when you need him?

Re: Joe Gibbs Motivational Speaker For Dallas Cowboys
No problem with this. His coaching days are well behind him. I equate this to Clinton and Bush Sr. working together after the Tsunami. Big whoop.

Personally I dont have a problem with it. I would expect any religious person to be willing to talk about their faith anytime and anywhere, which does include trials and tribulations of their personal lives (making clock mistakes that possibly cost a game). They struggled to beat Carolina by 5, its not like he turned them into world beaters. If someone from Dallas was asked to speak to the Skins about faith (not football), then I would expect them to do it (barring a legitimate previous engagement) or else I would more than willingly tell that person face to face that he makes his faith into a joke by prioritizing football over his faith. |

Re: Joe Gibbs Motivational Speaker For Dallas Cowboys
The way i see it, it's a complement to have your nemesis seek the man who kicked your ass for years to get seek his advice. That speaks volumes, it's an act of desperation and humility.

I just want to be clear that all i am saying personally is it is strange. I agree with you all. It actually gives me goosebumps that Jones thinks that much of Gibbs. Also what was Gibbs supposed to do - say no?
To say its not threadworthy or "interesting in a bizzaro world way" is crazy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Third of all you are making it sound like the Cowboys came to town on a pilgrimage. Lol. The Dallas Cowboys were here to play a football game and if there was no football game on Sun they arent in a chapel. There are plenty of priests in and around that city that could talk to Dallas about God that are alot more qualified to do so than Joe Gibbs. It had everything to do with Football and if you read what he said he talked about football and specific moments in games where he made mistakes but u have to overcome those mistakes. Mentally challenging the Dallas Cowboys to keep the faith on SUNDAY and everyday. Was he shouting - now go beat those Panthers- of course not, but make no bones about it this was in some way shape or form a spiritually uplifting pep talk the day before a game. If you are going to try and tell me that Jerry Jones just wanted his players to be quoted the scripture by Father Gibbs and it had absolutely nothing to do with the fact there was a game the next day well no - just no. And I have pointed out the fact that Gibbs is the type of person that i dont think would say no. Ultimately i have no problem with him obliging jerry jones request to speak to the team.
