300/300 yes

[SBR_John]

"I'm distraught to say the least," Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips told reporters. "It was embarrassing I thought, the way we played, (the way) we coached," Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips told reporters.

"We didn't give ourselves a chance to win the game. It's very painful at this point in the season to be where we are."

I still like the bet...poor wade needs to keep away from rope like material and keep the bbq's outside tonight.

[sneak-a-peak]

Im surprised the line hasnt moved yet

Sharps are pounding the yes like jj pounds his monkey

[Sunde91]

edit.

[katstale]

John I am all in 402 to win 402. I think he will be there at least one more week. guess he could resign, but obviously i think he won't. thanks for the opportunity.

[sneak-a-peak]

I based my yes after the fact that Jerry Jones has never fired a head coach during a season.

I highly doubt that he would have Wade be the 1st one even tho he should.

[BarkingToad]

500 on yes

[Sunde91]

edit: loan acquired.

[gryfyn1]

Ill go for it ---

500 on he will be there ---

My biggest concern is that a Dallas Fan knifes him and he has to coach from the hospital.

[Naz18]

Yes for 400

[Sunde91]

Boys, I was supremely confident in YES after these two sources:

http://espn.go.com/blog/dallas/cowboys/post/_/id/4673868/jerry-jones-is-sorry-but-wade-phillips-stays

http://www.profootballweekly.com/2010/10/31/jones-maintains-phillips-will-not-get-fired

But now, after already taking out loan and placing bet, this most recent one is saying Jones is now really thinking about firing him with Wade sounding like a total puss with the confidence of a 13 year old pimple face spazz.

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/columnists/jtaylor/stories/110110dnspotaylor.1e5af436f.html

Jones may want to keep Wade for financial reasons and believing interm head coaches are not useful, but I'm afraid Wade will stumble into Jones' office and start crying and licking his shoes pleading to fire him...I swear to christ, Wade, you bitchass.

[ericthegangster]

i will take YES wade will be on the sideline this weekend for 148 points

[ThaddeusB]

I'll take "yes, will be on sidelines" for 300

[TobiasFunke]

I'll take Yes for 500 to win 500

Thanks John

[Tree Rollins]

500 on Yes.

[Hotdiggity11]

Yes, he will be.

[3PtShooter]

yes wade will be on the sidelines for 100 sbr pts

[SBR_John]

OK, uncle... I'm closing the bet. Good luck to all(especially me).

Jerry Jones: Wade Phillips will coach Cowboys rest of season

01:14 PM CDT on Friday, November 5, 2010

From Staff and Wire Reports The Dallas Cowboys are 1-6, going nowhere fast, but Jerry Jones will not make a head coaching change.
When asked if Wade Phillips will finish the season as Cowboys coach, Jones told KRLD-FM on Friday, "Yes."
Everyone is talking about him firing coach Phillips, including 82% of SportsDayDFW.com voters. Jones doesn't see how that would help, even with Phillips all but offering up his headset with what sounded like a concession speech following a loss at home to mediocre Jacksonville last Sunday.
But when asked about midseason coaching changes, Jones said this week, "The key is will it do any good? The history of football and in the NFL shows that it rarely can do any good other than a momentary ‘feel good’. The other thing that happens is if you do consider a change and don’t have success, then that ‘feel good’ doesn’t last very long. That’s the reality of it.
"The real world is, the one I’m looking at, where we are. I want to see what we can do. ... We’re going to Green Bay and we all know what that challenge is up there and we need to be better."
When asked if there a time and place for a "feel good" move for the fans, Jones said: "It is important because you got to live with the ‘feel good’ move and is it important to do that for 30 minutes or is it important to do that ‘feel good’ for an hour? Feel good for a week? Feel good for two weeks? The significance of improving on what we’re doing on the field right now is very critical.
"I think this: I do want to remind every fan that is listening, that if some of the fundamental things that help teams win are…the franchise, frankly, can be important and the stature of the franchise can be important. The amount of money in professional football, professional sports, the amount of money that is expended to help the team win; that’s a big deal. We spend more on this team than any team in all of football. So, I’ll answer that one for you."
Keeping Phillips would be unpopular — heck, it already is — but few people are as well-versed in doing unpopular things as Jones, who fired Tom Landry and Jimmy Johnson, hired Barry Switzer and cut Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith.
Criticism doesn't budge Jones, but money usually does.
And that's likely the crux of all this.
If Phillips is fired, he's still due at least $3 million for 2011. That said, he's not likely to walk away, especially if he thinks this could be his last NFL head coaching job. Jones, meanwhile, would expect someone he was paying that much to stay on.
Sure he could go after a Super Bowl-winning coaches Bill Cowher, Tony Dungy or Jon Gruden, but it's not that simple. Sure it would shake up the locker room and, with nine games left, give Dallas a head start on a rebuilding plan. Would that be enough or worth the expense of signing one of them?
Then there's the pending labor war.
Jones is a member of the league's management council executive committee and will have a big role in the upcoming negotiations with the players' association. He's dug in his heels, ready for a fight over the collective bargaining agreement that could scrap the 2011 season.
"The last time around was a tweak, but this time it's structural changes," Jones said. "It's just totally unacceptable the way it is."
Replacing Phillips would be an indication Jones is preparing for 2011, which would go contrary to the negotiating stance that there might not be a 2011 season. It might explain why he would avoid the risk of paying two coaches not to work next year.
The whole CBA-related rationale stems from an interview with Jones last week.
Asked how the labor uncertainty factors into his decision about a coaching change, he said: "I wouldn't try to or weight how that impacts decisions, but certainly you aren't going to see a lot of coaching changes as we go into next year."
He clarified that "we" meant the NFL and that "next year" meant the league's fiscal year. Then he ended that line of discussion, saying, "I'm not going to go into why."
Jones still could fire Phillips without making a dent in his payroll.
The easiest move would be promoting someone already on the staff, such as offensive coordinator Jason Garrett (once viewed as the head coach-in-waiting), receivers coach Ray Sherman or special teams coach Joe DeCamillis, who is loud and profane on the practice field, the antithesis of Phillips' style.
A new voice calling the shots and demanding more discipline might squeeze out an extra win or two. But, with the playoffs a lost cause, each win only means a worse draft pick. So that could swing Jones back in favor of riding things out with Phillips, for better or worse.
In 22 seasons, Jones has made six coaching changes — none during a season. He says research shows it rarely helps a struggling club change directions.
On Sunday, he noted that there are only about 35 "real practice days with pads" left this season.
"You've got really some serious limitations or some serious challenges when you start talking about changing philosophy, which (is) why I don't go there," he said.
Another wretched performance like the last one — a 35-17 loss that felt more like 53-7 — could make Jones change his mind, especially if the worst unit is once again the defense that's personally overseen by Phillips. (That's another issue: firing Phillips means finding another defensive coordinator, although there are two former NFL defensive coordinators on his staff.)
It remains stunning that Dallas could be off to its worst start since going 1-15 in 1989 when there were legitimate reasons to think this could be its first Super Bowl season since 1995. With the upcoming NFL title game at Cowboys Stadium, Jones spoke openly about becoming the first team to play the big game at home.
The hopes were rooted in fact: The Cowboys went 11-5 last season, winning their division and a playoff game. Continuity was the buzzword because they brought back every key member of the coaching staff and 20 of 22 starters, with both replacements backups ready for promotions.
A team that's built to win isn't.
