Good times had by all

Jimmy Johnson, and his hair, got the party started on the show. I have to tell you — I think he’s outstanding. He’s great on FOX, was a fantastic coach, and he just has a great personality. And he never gets enough for credit for building those Cowboy Super Bowl teams, not just coaching them. Johnson told us that Norv Turner called him to talk about the Cowboys gig. And I asked Johnson if he advised his good friend to work for the now omnipresent Jones. While Johnson has major, and rightful, concerns about it, he advised Turner to take the gig if offered and thinks his former offensive coordinator is the best fit for the Dallas vacancy.
