Baseball union boss says players aren't suspected of using steroids

6:22 PM Mon, Feb 23, 2009 |

Baseball's union boss, Donald Fehr, says players in the majors aren't suspected of using steroids just because 104 players got caught in 2003.

Of course they're not.

Fehr says he'll do all he can to keep that list confidential.

Some players, not many, but some have argued the entire list should be made public.

So everybody would know who failed and who didn't.

But not if Donald Fehr gets his way, and ...

This Friday's Tylock Lasik SportsTalk (6:30 PM, KFWD, Channel 52) may resemble the Oxygen Channel at times, but we anticipate a fun show. And lots of interest.

Members of the newly-born Lingerie Football League and the Dallas Desire will be in studio, in uniform, and will demonstrate some plays for us. Needless to say, this will be a very different show. It'll be nice to have some beautiful football to talk about for a change ...

In no less authoritative source than the Dallas Cowboys own website, outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware said free agent inside linebacker Ray Lewis told him his dream is to play for the Cowboys.

"When we played Ray Lewis and Baltimore at the end of the season, he came over and pointed to my helmet. He said, 'I want to wear this star on my helmet, that's my dream . . . that's my dream.' When we got to the Pro Bowl, he did it again. He cam...



Let's talk: Jerry Jones silent treatment wrong approach

Instead of looking at everyone else, Jerry Jones needs to look at himself.

The problems with his franchise are not because people talk to the media.

Remember when the Cowboys were winning Super Bowls in the 1990s? There was no media blackout then. No sole voice.

Jerry continues to look at everything and everyone but himself.

So now, as he is about to open his $1.3 billion palace in Arlington, he's decided he ...



Cowboy legend Emmitt Smith no longer working for ESPN

9:34 AM Mon, Feb 23, 2009 |

Former Dallas Cowboys running back Emmitt Smith was one of the greatest football players, and certainly running backs, of all-time.

But he wasn't a very good television analyst. Baffling is more like it.

So it's not too big of a surprise that Smith's contract as an analyst at ESPN, which expired this month, will not be renewed.

He retired after the 2004 season as the NFL's all-time leading rusher.

Smith is bet...
