Destined for suspension and subsequent arrests for GF/dog beatings.

Found a link on the DMN website saying Gregory had bipolar, but when I clicked on it it went nowhere.

How are his hands

"The blocking ability of Geoff Swaim, in line, what you would call the normal wide tight end, he can do a little bit of (pass catching) but that’s not his stock and trade folks. His stock and trade is knocking people off the line of scrimmage, pulling and moving and leading people up into the hole, but he can do a little bit (pass catching)".

Looked up his stats and he has 13 catches for 84 yds.

“I was pleasantly surprised to see him,” said private equity executive Bill Kunkler, who helped organize some of the Chicago events. “It would be significant -- he was a key player for Mitt. I kind of just assumed he’s on the bus now. But I can’t speak for whether he’s still doing his due diligence.”

I'm so shocked 'old money' is supporting Jeb.

Only in post-modern America can names like Bush and Clinton even be seriously considered again. Americans need to say 'no' to both.

All I can name is Namath.

Butt fumble Sanchez doesn't count:)

Yeah, Namath is synonymous with "Jets."

Didn't like his flash at the time but the guy had guts, called his own plays, and didn't accrue his passing stats on RB checkdowns as QBs do so often these days. Seemed as if Namath's typical pass play was a 20 yard out or bomb.

Heh -- "Butt-Fumble" Sanchez will *never* live that play down. OR "count" as a *real* QB. It's a miracle the Jets actually got to a title game with that guy.

The big kid is my pitcher. He had a great day too. He knocked his own in the park HR. Almost cleared the fence. He has no wheels so I was spinning that arm to get him in gear to make it home:)

Aaaah...my bad. Thought sonny bopped his shot of "that" pitcher. Well the day was even better; star hurler AND hitter. Lol -- no wheels?? Man, what a scene -- you frantically cranking the arms (as third base coach?) as sonny is staggering toward home plate. Was there throw home? Did he have to slide? Was wifey at the game to videotape the scene?

NY Rangers lost a TOUGH game, 1-zip last night to the Caps :-(

It was a frenetic, wild action-packed display of skill, heart and determination -- despite a 1-0 score. #1-seed Rangers are now down 2-1 in the series. Tomorrow night is a must-win (in DC.)

Meanwhile, with the Yanks up 1-0 in the 8th to the Jays, MGR Joe Girardi inexplicable decides NOT to go to the league's best set-up guy and closer to finish what should have been a masterpiece. They lost 3-1. Girardi blew it.

Sorry I wrote as if you were 'there.':)

Big kid different kid than my son. My son is tall for his age (10) and thin (and has wheels:). The big kid is a bit chubby and very tall. Puts the smoke in the strike zone. His grandma is his guardian and she keeps a copy of his birth certificate in her purse as he has been challenged on his age by other coaches in the past.

So the big kid almost put one over the fence which is pretty Hooah for his age.

http://espn.go.com/dallas/nfl/story/_/id/12841444/dallas-cowboys-sign-former-lsu-offensive-lineman-lael-collins

Did you see where the Cowboys signed undrafted free agent La'el Collins to a guaranteed 3 year contract. Kid was supposed to be a first round pick but went undrafted because there was talk he had a hand in the death of his girlfriend.

They sure are making a haul this year, this makes 3 guys who should have went in the 1st round. Albeit 2 of them may turn out to be big headaches BTA they may just work out. Oh well time will tell if they were good moves or not, if not minimal financial outlay..

Have found out they have signed 15 undrafted free agents but haven't found the full list will do some research tonight after work to see if I can find them all. One was a RB and another is a potential replacement for Harris, 5 WRs in all, don't know about QBs though.

Yes just read the article on Collins. He is not a suspect in that horrible shooting. Someone went in there to murder that woman...truly sad. She was 8 months pregnant and the child survived for a few days if I remember correctly.

DNA tests showed the kid was not Collins'.

This is the latest/greatest list I could find on signed undrafted free agents and mini camp player invites, 40 players altogether. Only 2 QBs though, usually they do 3 or more to spread out all the throwing so somebody doesn't get hurt.

Out of this list they're hoping to find at least one WR/PR/KR/Special teams player, and I think they're also looking for another Special Teams/LB or Special Teams/S/CB.

Haven't really seen much on how the rookie camp went other than Gregory not being hydrated enough on the first day and about Dez not showing up. Most of the buzz I'm seeing is which WR is gonna replace Harris as KR/PR/WR/Special teamer.

I actually think the average of the top 3-5 is proper pay for Dez. He is not better than the top 3 but more like the 5th best receiver in the game.

The problem for Dez is that Tony has only another year or 2 and thats it. After that Cowboys are in a rebuilding phase and do not need to be held down by crazy contracts. No win situations. Dez wants a 5 year contract with guaranty pay.

This team "overall" is way too young to go into another "total" rebuilding phase. Teams are always rebuilding to some extent (get rid of 3-4 older guys acquire 3-4 younger ones every year) some just require more rebuilding than others. And some have the right players but the coaching staff needs to be schitt canned.

Jerry and Company will either find Romo's replacement in the next draft or will go after one via the trade/FA route.

Well the funny part about this situation is "BOTH" of them called 911 and accused the other of attacking them. And then after it's just about all over with she can't be found to testify at the trial so all of the charges are dropped.

Since he only played one game last year because of this and lost all of that money you would think "time served" would be enough. At least it was in Adrian Peterson's case so why not in Hardy's case?? (I guess the seriousness of the charge outweighs the actual validity of the charge)...

Remember when Michael Irvin and Erik Williams were accused of rape and it was found out the woman lied about it. Hmmmmm kinda makes you wonder about Hardys case.

Horn: What ESPN plans to do in 90-minute Cowboys training camp special

Barry Horn Follow @bhorn55 BHorn@dallasnews.com

Published: 24 July 2015 05:02 PM

Updated: 25 July 2015 01:28 AM

Largely boxed out from prime-time regular-season Cowboys games by NBC, which has an annual three-to-one advantage, and outside the lines when it comes to training camp sagas as brought to you by HBO’s Hard Knocks, ESPN has come up with a way to add Cowboys content to its programming lineup.

Coming to a TV set near you on Aug. 4, a Tuesday, will be a live 90-minute special from the Cowboys’ Oxnard, Calif., training camp.

The idea is to take viewers through an afternoon practice with Kenny Mayne, Jon Gruden and Darren Woodson as tour guides.

This will be ESPN’s second such foray into training camp. Last summer the concept debuted with the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks. If you think the New England Patriots, the Seahawks’ successors as kings of the hill, would be the logical choice for this summer, you haven’t been paying attention.

Patriots coach Bill Belichick would rather have outside cameras at his anesthesia-less root canal than invite them into his training camp laboratory. The Patriots, history has shown, prefer to be on the other side of the lens.

So when ESPN producer Jay Rothman decided on an encore performance of his inside training camp experiment, he went directly to a team with “meat on the bone” that doesn’t mind offering a taste. The Cowboys provide the perfect ingredients, including an owner who likes cameras and a magnet that draws eyeballs.

In an interview this week, Rothman said he approached the receptive Cowboys at the Super Bowl and got the final approval last month.

“Jerry Jones is terrific, he gets it,” said Rothman, whose main role is producing Monday Night Football. “And there’s no secret that with the Cowboys, the ratings are big.”

(Note: The Cowboys-Redskins appearance on Monday Night Football in October was easily the highest-rated and most-watched game on ESPN last season.)

The idea for the training camp series popped into Rothman’s head while he watched an ESPN special that focused on Boston Red Sox batting practice soon after the start of the 2014 season.

(Added note: The other team taking batting practice that day at Fenway Park was the Rangers.)

Rothman thought the idea would easily translate to the NFL.

Unlike Hard Knocks, which lingers at training camps and depends on character development, Rothman’s production will rely on Xs and Os. Already he has met with Gruden and Woodson for six hours of Cowboys film study.

You might expect ESPN to “mike up” several players, coaches and a certain general manager. But that won’t be the case.

Rothman explained he tried that approach with the Seahawks and didn’t like the results. Besides, it’s always dangerous to have hot microphones in a live athletic setting.

Toward the end of our conversation, Rothman noted that although his show, scheduled to kick off at 6 p.m., was booked for 90 minutes, it could go longer.

(Final note: Last season Gruden sat down with Jones for what was to be a four-minute feature. They talked much longer. Rothman deemed it worthy for more. There was “enough meat on the bone” for a 30-minute special, which drew surprisingly strong ratings.)

Most assuredly there will be replays of the Cowboys training camp show on a variety of ESPN networks. Who knows? This could translate into an annual event. Maybe even a series. When it comes to the Cowboys, the networks’ appetites are insatiable.

Didn't know if you guys had seen this or not.

“Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rapidly promoted by mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.”

Since we are not talking much about the Dallas Cowboys, that means the Rangers are still in the hunt:)

the boys didn't pick a RB ... interesting .

They either believe McFadden solves that void, OR will rummage thru roster dumpsters and free agency.

From what I'm hearing from training camp McFadden is doing just fine, they are happy with what they have... Now that could change tomorrow as you all well know...

“Let me see which pig "DON'T" I want to vote for, the one with or without lipstick??" Hmmmmm...
