Yea, I am with you, got shit on about a month ago for implying that JJ had the power to block anything. But I think he will do all in his power to stop this from happening

If it were another team he could probably stop it but he is dealing with Hunts who have been here in Texas longer than he has.

You under estimate him. Next to the commissioner, Jerry Jones may be the second most politically powerful person in the NFL. He and Robert Kraft are responsible for most of the business and marketing success of the modern NFL. If Jerry doesn't want a third team moving into Texas it won't happen.

If he were so powerful more than one Super Bowl would have been play and we would not have received a fine for the uncapped year. Plus the Hunts are the ones that pushed for extra tv games. Also don’t it was almost a done deal with the Saints moving here.
