Watching it. Has given me a new appreciation for Barry Switzer. He took a lot of shit for following Johnson and coaching the team another guy built to a SB win. Also didn't realize how intense Aikman was as a team leader and how much he and Switzer feuded. Woulda thought that Aikman was easy going (always seems like that kind of guy) and that his history with Switzer, whom he knew from his time as a recruited kid growing up in Oklahoma, would have made them close. But as much as any player he missed and wanted Johnson's coaching style.
Goes to show again that multiple styles can work. One end of the spectrum you have the hard asses like Saban, Meyer, Johnson and on the other you have guys like Pete Carroll and Barry Swizter.
Also didn't know the personal story behind Switzer's family life. Pretty rough.
Also didn't know he was a coach at Arkansas when Johnson and Jones were players there. Would have guessed he was younger than those dudes.
Also came away with a bit more of an appreciation for Jerry Jones. His deal with Johnson, who is a complicated dude, had more nuance to it than I previously appreciated.
It's a bit corny and the music scores intended to create dramatic crescendos throughout were a bit uninspired. But still … I love a good sports miniseries.

This is what baffles me. In watergate the coverup was 100x worse than the crime.
Here the crime is 100x worse than watergate and the coverup involved the media and the intelligence community.
To this day, none of @HHusky @HuskyBuck @MelloDawg @SwoopTheMoon , @DucksFC or any of the other usual “contributors” here have been able to acknowledge or address that reality, let alone square it up and attempt to rationalize it to the rest of the users here.
Just more of the “sure, Gladys” or “two weeks!” bullshit. You can hate Trump, and I get it. You can hate his supporters and ok whatever.
But you gotta also kind of hate the fact that our government used the fbi, cia, and the media to orchestrate espionage and lawfare on an opposing political campaign and administration, regardless of where you land on the political spectrum.
For a group of people who desperately tried to own the phrase “our democracy is at stake” yall are deeply conflicted on this issue, if not wholly compromised, intellectually and morally. That’s pretty much undeniable at this point. It’s not up for debate, which is why you’ve all been too pussy to address any of it directly. Just keep up with the evasive, snide, pointless quips. None of it holds up under any sort of strict scrutiny and you’re on the wrong side of history.
But yeah we know you don’t give a shit. Orange man bad!

There was also someone called plushandicap that Fleenor wanted a detailed GHIN report from so he could ridicule it and still claim he was the best golfer on dawgman.
