LITTLE ROCK — Jones tops firing list in Dallas

The Dallas Cowboys’ 38-31 loss to the Washington Redskins on Thanksgiving Day has Randy Galloway of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram fired up.

Galloway believes that Cowboys Coach Jason Garrett and owner Jerry Jones should have been fired after the game.

“Applications are now being taken for the Dallas Cowboys’ next head coach,” wrote Galloway.

“And next defensive coordinator.

“And next general manager.

“And why stop there. How about a new owner, too?

“Fire every damn one of them, pronto.

“It’s a housecleaning, of course, that would require Jerry dumping himself. All in favor, call 1-800 J-ER-R-Y S-U-C-K-S.

“Another wasted season died here on Thursday, another in a long line of ongoing failures for a joke of a franchise that continues to joke up the game of football.

“There wasn’t a turkey on any table in Texas picked cleaner than the Cowboys on Thanksgiving.

With RG3 [Robert Griffin III] back on native soil, both The Special One and his Washington Redskins feasted every way possible, hanging up 28 unanswered second-quarter points on the way to a 38-31 punking of the feeble and the clueless.

“Is anybody angry? Well, anybody outside of a nationwide fan base.”

The Cowboys fell to 5-6, one game behind the defending Super Bowl champion New York Giants in the NFC East, and are tied with the Redskins.

“Afterward, the owner/GM was left wondering if he had even a meager 8-8 club with five games remaining,” wrote Galloway.

“ ‘I sure don’t know if we’re going to be 8-8,’ admitted Jones.

“Just a thought, but I’d say no, and hell no, on 8-8, and who cares anyway about 8-8.

“Everybody must go. Fire ’em all. And you go first, Jerry.” Fire’s gone

Apparently Fireman Ed has had enough of the New York Jets.

Ed Anzalone, one of the most recognizable Jets fans, left MetLife Stadium during the Jets’ 49-19 loss to the New England Patriots. The Jets trailed 35-3 at halftime.

Fireman Ed’s Twitter account was also deactivated Thursday.

“That about says it all,” CBSSports.com columnist Mike Freeman wrote. “That’s the football equivalent of Walter Cronkite saying the Vietnam War is lost.”
