Cowboys Add Playoff Tickets for Season Ticket Holders
Jerruh Jones, owner and general manager of the Dallas Cowboys, has legitimately lost his marbles.


Untethered to reality, space and time, the Dallas Cowboys are at it again.

'Boys season-ticket holders opened mailboxes this week to find their annual batch of preseason and regular-season vouchers packaged alongside a "sheet of playoff tickets, including a ticket for the NFC Championship Game," according to ESPN.com's Darren Rovell.


NOTE: This is something no NFL team has ever done.

"It's a convenience for our season-ticket holders to have everything in one package," said Brett Daniels, the Cowboys director of corporate communications. "It's an evolution to be fan-friendly. They have their tickets online and if we clinch a playoff berth they go to the computer and click they want the tickets."

To be fair, Brian Lafemina, the NFL's senior vice president of club business development, told ESPN.com that he expects more teams to follow suit.

"It's operationally efficient for the teams, and it's convenient for the fan," Lafemina said. "There are times when teams don't know if they are hosting a playoff game until a week before, and doing this helps eliminate some of the friction that exists among the teams and fans. This dovetails nicely with our new policy. If a fan says they will pay if a game is played, the team can now charge that fan and the ticket is already in hand."

An efficient play by the Cowboys, but also one that -- to the average human -- reeks of hubris from a team that hasn't qualified for the NFC title game since Bill Clinton roamed the White House.

Coming off three straight hyper-vanilla 8-8 campaigns, Dallas -- according to Around the League scribe Chris Wesseling -- looms as a far stronger candidate for the No. 1 pick than a football game in January.

I see the angle of trying to be "fan friendly", I guess, but let's not go putting the cart before the horse just yet.

Just give them your credit card and they will push the button if and when hell freezes over.

Those will be sold on EBay after they're eliminated from playoff contention.

Nah, lots of NFL teams sell playoff tickets then don't make it. Chiefs have done this repeatedly, just late in the year. This makes a lot of logistical sense unless playoffs are virtually impossible for some reason.

So they are charging the STHs before they even make the playoffs or are they just getting permission from the STH to charge their card IF they make the playoffs?

No, they'll have to pay online to activate them.

No...just printed tickets. You won't pay till later with a simple click on site...actually pretty smart and was more cost effective
