Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones defends Jason Garrett for his participation in the World Series game

FRISCO, Texas – Two-time Super Bowl winner and Super Bowl winner Jimmy Johnson did not believe Jason Garrett was playing in the third game of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Boston Red Sox series.

Owner and General Manager Jerry Jones is not in agreement.

"I'm not associated with anyone who works harder than Jason Garrett," Jones told The 105.3 The Fan in Dallas. "I can be sure that he had his wit in our team … I know where Jason Garrett's spirit is and I know where his work ethic is." A little respite from time to time as well far that week off is not a problem. "

Jones said the Cowboys were still active during the weekend of departure, even though they were not present at the Star, noting the decision to part with the offensive line coach Paul Alexander. Jones spent Saturday hoping to see his grandson, John Stephen Jones, play quarterback in Arkansas.

Garrett was sitting behind the plate and spending part of his time with country singer Brett Paisley instead of correcting the inconsistencies of his team despite the break that did not accord with Johnson on the basis of perception.

"I think it sends a bad message, not only to the fans, but also to the players," Johnson said on Fox's pre-game television show. "At 3-4, there is work to be done."

The immediate comparison was made with the decision made by Tony Romo, Jason Witten and Bobby Carpenter to escape to Cabo during the weekend without special cards from the 2007 playoffs. The Cowboys, who had the advantage over their opponents in the playoffs lost the following week to the New York Giants, who then won the Super Bowl, further angering fans.

Coaches were on vacation during the weekend and players were not to be at The Star until Wednesday for a training or meeting. They will not hold their first training for Monday's game against the Tennessee Titans before Thursday.

"Nobody recognizes the visibility and the interest, if you will, for what we do when we do not play football this weekend, and everyone takes it into account," Jones said. "But when it comes to Jason, I'm kidding when I think about the possibility of criticizing where his mind and his work ethic are."
