A Cowboys win would be infinitely better than seeing Tom Brady advance in the playoffs.
Plus, I think having three teams from the same division still alive in the NFC playoffs is exactly the kind of chaos I'm looking for as a neutral observer.

Jones is one of the easiest to hate and simultaneously easiest to like guys in the league.
Dude was a straight up wildcatter. He was literally out there chasing oil strikes and hit a couple. He was a college jock who wanted to buy a football team and took a pretty massive risk (at the time) on a team that was hemorrhaging money. Then turned the damn thing 180 degrees virtually overnight.
Then he made '**** you' money and proceeded to...well...tell everyone **** you.
Because why not? he's not some stooge of the shield. He's not a family money trust fund kid who's never taken risks. He's always had as much/more skin in the game than any other owner in the sport. And he puts his money where his mouth is - good for him.
I can't bring myself to dislike ol' Jerrah.
