Stephen A. Smith has embraced needling the Dallas Cowboys and their fans as a recurring bit and the franchise has provided him ample opportunity to do so in recent years. The face of ESPN pushed quite hard for the Cowboys to hire Deion Sanders but Jerry Jones instead opted to go the very boring route with Brian Schottenheimer.

It’s been one heck of a week for Jerry Jones. The Cowboys’ owner had himself a day on Monday during Brian Schottenheimer’s introductory press conference when he began talking about “Schotty Shots” and noting that he got his hiring advice from Steve Spurrier — now he’s out here talking about glory holes for some reason.

Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones pushed back hard on the notion that his decision to promote offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to be his next head coach was one made out of comfort.
