I just read an article where the Dallas Cowboys are doing a reality show... you can read about it here. I know Jerry Jones is a publicity master, and he thinks tabloid items and drama surrounding his team are a good thing (that old saying about any publicity is good publicity). I have to admit this idea really does nothing for me, for two major reasons:
1. I dislike pretty much all reality TV. The genre has really played itself out already. Let's get back to writing good stuff, not writing reality show scripts and trying to play it off like it's "real".
2. There are a ton of college football players who have literally worked their asses off trying to get to the NFL. Why should a reality show winner get a chance some young men NEVER get (even though they might deserve it)?
Come on Jerry Jones - fix the problems you already have, and let the team make their own publicity, by WINNING, sheesh.
