Poor Jerry Jones, first his 'Boys get curb-stomped by the Patriots, then it turns out the attorney representing them at a domain name auction has no idea about the starting or ending price. I'd like to state that as a long-time Giants fan, I'm deriving no personal pleasure from hearing about how the Dallas Cowboys know nothing about how much a highly-desirable domain name like, oh, Cowboys.com, will sell for on the open market.
Ok, I'm joking, I danced a happy dance like a preschooler on Pixie Dust and orange drink when I saw Cahn posted about chatting with the Cowboys' representative:when I spoke to their attorney...he was dead serious, had no idea that it was $275K and was shocked when he received the purchase agreement ( he thought he bought it for $275.00 - thats right two hundred and seventy five dollars!). I almost asked him what he was smoking. after falling out of my chair....not ever experiencing anything like this one, we are going to let this dog stay sleeping for a while. someone should pick this name up and it will ultimately cost the cowboys millions when they finish that $800M stadium they are building. I told the attorney that my guess was that they probably sell $275K in popcorn and beer in one game and that they were foolish not to look at their brand in a different way.A Terrell Owens-autographed ball costs $425, and this guy thought he was grabbing Cowboys.com for the price of a ROMO 9 Reebok authentic jersey plus overnight shipping? Sorry, Jerry Jones, domain names are a commodity, like it or not, and $275K is a discount compared to what it could cost in a few years. Unless of course that lawyer redeems himself and somehow can prove the Dallas Cowboys are entitled to the domain name due to trademark law. Until then, I hope the Giants buy the domain name and send Jones an invitation to bid on it.
