[QUOTE="Jock Ewing Fan, post: 400381, member: 40536"] In part, yes. JR was raised to be the President of Ewing Oil. He was denied the approval of his parents, who chose both of his brothers, instead. He built Ewing Oil into a billion$ company And yet... Jock id not leave him the company JR and Bobby had to compete for it. Bobby was given a less complicated path, because JR was prepared by Jock for his entire life, under harsh criticism by Jock. JR did not become JR in a vacuum I agree completely. Miss Ellie was happy to live a life of wealth and privilege, but she was willfully ignorant of how it was achieved. She almost never showed JR any love. Before someone mentions when she helped on the occasion of the cartel loan... it was only because Ewing Oil was effected, which in turn would have effected her. I despise the way that Ellie constantly supported Clayton, who was a clear JR adversary She invites the man to the barbecue (Jock would have sent Clayton out, in no uncertain terms), She ignores Clayton cheap-punching JR at the wedding, She marries Clayton and gives him half of SF...unbelievable. Please stop this hero worship of Miss Ellie... she was as avaricious and unethical as any of the Ewings, especially when her own agenda was a factor And I am talking about the[I] character[/I], not BBG, for clarification [/QUOTE]
