Injury Update: Terence Newman Out For At Least Three Weeks
The Cowboys announced that Terence Newman will miss at least three weeks due to a slight groin strain. Initially the thoughts were he would miss 2-3 practices after Newman was injured Monday during a play. Newman got an MRI Tuesday and it revealed he had a strain. It’s like deja vu all over again. Newman missed three preseason games last season and the first two regular season games. The Cowboys top corner will miss the [...]

Phillips finished 13-3 last year. Now everyone [...]

Talk Back Tuesdays
5.8 Earthquake Felt At Oxnard! I just heard on 103.3 ESPN radio that there was a pretty huge earthquake felt at the Cowboys Training Camp. Reports are saying there were no injuries reported thus far, but some are shaking up from the ordeal. I myself believe this Quake is due to the massive amount of weight from the offensive and defensive line. Cowboys are letting the L.A. area know they are there! Your Time [...]

Seeing Stars Can Make You See Straight
I was having a horrible day at work, just one of those days. I’m sure everyone can relate. On my lunch break I decided to stop into the music/book store and possibly find something to lift my spirits, or at least distract me. Surprisingly, I couldn’t find any new music that I couldn’t live without. I wandered through the store as if I was lost, not knowing what I was there for. I made my [...]

Newman Will Be Fine, If Not We Have Backup This Time
Many people worry when they hear the name Terence Newman and injury in the same sentence. Can’t say that I blame them, he missed the first three games last year because of problems with his foot. However, Newman came back and had an excellent season, earning his first trip to the Pro Bowl and later getting a nice extension for six-year, $50.2 million. T-New was injured yesterday during morning practice when, according to Coach Phillips, he ”got tangled [...]

All Roads Lead To Tampa, Florida
Not to anyone’s surprise, but Terrell Owens has been the most impressive Cowboy at camp thus far. Owens continued to sweep past the defense catching deep passes, often lined up against Adam Jones. The two have definitely formed a friendly competition and so far Owens is ahead. ”Every day is going to be different, depending on the feel of each individual. Some days he will feel a little better than me and the majority of [...]

Will Patrick Crayton and Sam Hurd Answer The call?
With the news of Terry Glenn being released… a move that I applauded, it now falls on our young receivers to step up and fill the void left by his absence. Most notably, Sam Hurd and Patrick Crayton. Let’s first look at a short synopsis on each player. Patrick Crayton – After spending his first three seasons as the club’s primary punt returner and as a reserve wide receiver, Crayton had the opportunity to showcase his [...]

A Stampede of Wide Receivers
Training camp is here! Pre-season kicks off on August 9th… I was just sitting around thinking about the new season. We have so many exciting rookies in camp. I think the wide receiver corps is going to be the most fun to watch. As I looked over the roster I saw that we have four rookie wide receivers competing for a job this pre season. Then of course, we have Terrell Owens, Terry Glenn (I think?), Patrick Crayton, Sam Hurd, a [...]

The Waiting Is Over…
“I’ve paid my dues.. Time after time.I’ve done my sentence… But committed no crime.And bad mistakes… I’ve made a few.I’ve had my share of sand kicked in my face, but I’ve come through.” “But it’s been no bed of roses… No pleasure cruise.I consider it a challenge before the whole human race,And I ain’t gonna lose.” What a way to open up a new season… I prefaced this post with some well know lyrics from [...]

Freedom isn't "Free"
As the new dawn of a new season approaches, the 2008 Boys are thankfully faced with very few question marks. There is the ongoing Terry Glenn fiasco, which I don’t really understand, because if TG really wants to be on this team, then what is 700 grand to a multimillionare (the difference between his salary and his injury settlement)? And that is ONLY if he does get hurt. TD to Terry: sign the dang paper! [...]
