The Five "Real" Reasons Dan Reeves Did Not Join Cowboys

3:51 PM Fri, Feb 06, 2009 |

Just in case you missed SportsTalk last night on KFWD, channel 52...here are the five "real" reasons I suggested that might have lead to Dan Reeves not joining the Cowboys.

1) He wasn't issued a team of bodyguards. Apparently, Pacman Jones sapped all the bodyguard resource money the Cowboys have. This, of course, is highly unfair. Why couldn't Reeves have his own bodyguard entourage? Jerry, again, being short-sighted.<...



Rangers re-sign Jason Jennings to minor league deal

The Texas Rangers have re-signed right-handed pitcher Jason Jennings.

Don't freak out.

It's a one-year minor league contract. The deal does include an invitation to major league spring training camp, though.

Jennings, 30, joined the Rangers as a free agent last year after spending his first 8 campaigns in the Colorado Rockies organization.

He made 6 starts in his American League with the Rangers, including the ...

We have a Cowboys-heavy show tonight on Tylock Lasik SportsTalk (6:30 PM, KFWD, Channel 52).

We'll be joined by Tony Dorsett, who talks about the many issues facing the Cowboys...many, many issues. Tony has been very outspoken in his criticism of the team and we expect tonight will be no different.

Also speaking with us from his off-season home in Oregon, Cowboys punter Sam Paulescu. His future on the team seems in do...



Another former Cowboys assistant gets top job

Maybe the Dallas Cowboys kept the wrong coaches.

First it was the great Tony Sparano, the Cowboys offensive line coach, assistant head coach and running game coordinator under Bill Parcells.

All he did was take a 1-15 Miami Dolphins team to the playoffs with an 11-5 record.

Now Todd Haley, the passing game coordinator when Sparano oversaw the running game, is headed to be the head coach of the former Dallas Texans, th...



Does Jerry Jones think Dan Reeves is lazy?

Jerry Jones continues to baffle me.

Now we know the big sticking point in the contract that would have brought Dan Reeves back to the Cowboys: Jones wanted Reeves to log a specific number of hours at Valley Ranch.

Does Jerry really think Reeves was looking for a cush job?

Reeves, like all NFL coaches, is a man who has put in very, very long days (we're talking 12-18 hours a day during the season) in his time coaching i...
