Jones thinks with his tongue and he makes commitments he cannot possibly keep and he flies by the seat of his pants -- "Blowin’ and goin’," he calls it -- in an oddly absent-minded way.

It's Jerral W. Jones, thank you very much, and since December, 1992, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys and his wife, Gene, have been the proud owners of a 1931 mansion at the southernmost tip of Highland Park.

 Reporter-News Online: Dallas Cowboys - What is Jones’ face next to in the dictionary?
He was a starting guard and co-captain of the 1964 Arkansas team that went undefeated (11-0), beating Nebraska in the Cotton Bowl for the national championship.

After a rocky start on the first question (“You want me to answer that?”), Jones played along until right after the fourth question when he spotted HBO’s “Hard Knocks” camera crew and politely shooed me away.

This was Jerral Jones, 46, a native of Rose City, Ark., who had made a fortune in insurance, gas and oil over the years and who had used most of it to buy the Dallas Cowboys for a reported $140 million on the same day he fired Tom Landry.
