3. Dallas Cowboys News
TO is getting his 3 million roster bonus. (story)
No surprise here, Jerry said all along he expected TO back. I am for it but very leery. If the Cowboys get off to a slow start and Romo struggles, expect TO to toss his butt under the bus quickly.

This makes me worry about Staubach and Aikman (among others), who both suffered numerous concussions during their playing years.

Mark, this has been tried 3 times (unsuccessfully) over the past 30 years, don't bother.

Julius Jones like the new coach: says he felt like he was running like a robot under Parcells (story).
He looked to me like he was running like a robot sometime last year. I was optimistic though after the playoff game in which he appeared to be his old self.
