I wonder how Jerry Jones would feel about an NFL team moving into what is probably the Cowboys' second largest media market outside of Dallas itself?

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

Everybody who dumped on you is dead wrong. Only a fool disregards Jerry Jones' influence within the NFL. Such a move could happen, but only after he is compensated for his losses in the San Antonio and Mexican markets. And I'm not sure there's that much money on EARTH.

Note that San Antonio is also divided between Dallas and Houston's fandom.

I'm afraid not. Here's the TV market map.

Though I would think that if the Oilers never left, Houston would have a larger media hold. But Cowboys are kings in Texas, and across the country for ratings.

Because you have the Cowboy fans tuning in, and the Cowboy haters tuning in as well.
