Today is a big day for us at Lone Star Struck as we honor and celebrate the enshrinement of our beloved Cowboy, Emmitt Smith. Today we will be treating you to a day dedicated to one of the greatest players ever to wear the Dallas Cowboys uniform.

I don’t know where this is coming from and how much of it just overblown, but I came across an article on ESPN.com that took a swipe at Kevin Ogletree’s character. Tim MacMahon believes that the Kevin Ogletree, who kept making plays a year ago in the Alamodome when he was fighting for a roster spot, no longer has that same sense of urgency in this training camp.

Are you freaking kidding me?! See, this [...]

It was reported on ProFootballTalk.com this morning that Brett Favre will not be returning to the Vikings this season.  Favre is expected to issue a press release later this afternoon. He has also started to communicate this to teammates. Reports are that Favre’s ankle has not responded after surgery and rehab this off-season. I believe Favre said the same thing last season during training camp and a few days later he was on a plane to the [...]
