Right. Geeze, what a screwed up situation: The best case scenario has Dez's mom relapsing on crack.

#3 is an interesting story. It doesn't make sense to me, though. If your son is mad that you are allowing drugs in the house, is that the time to call the police to come to your house? I have no idea how Dez's mother thinks, but that seems like a dumb move. Then again, it appears that...

nah, he just had a tough childhood.

agreed.

PacMan had some great highlights with the Titans. Sorry, that was a cheapshot.

Yeah. Hard to know. At some point, I gotta believe his family understands that it isn't in their best interest to say things that put their meal ticket in jeopardy. I don't think we'll ever know with certainty what really happened.

It is bad, disconcerting, tiring news. No argument from me on that. My take is a little different, though. Here's the situation -- Two people go through somewhat similar traumas. One manages to thrive despite it; another has lingering issues. Just because one of them is doing well doesn't...

Not bad! Ouch!

After the latest incident, there must be several jokes circulating about Dez and Dez's mom. What have you heard? Insert jokes here.

This is exactly correct. ... the hit rate on draft choices league-wide simply isn't as high as most assume.

I like the theory. It makes sense to me. But I don't remember hearing the draft analysts on draft day say that the Cowboys' 3rd, 4th, or 5th round choices are usually taken a round or two too early. Have you heard otherwise?

In the right situation, I think Murray could be very effective. Besides his own ability, Murray has got a couple of things going for him. 1) The Cowboys' passing attack demands the respect of defenses. 2) Murray will be playing behind an outstanding FB in Vickers. On the downside: 1)...

I really like the Lawrence Vickers signing. I'm hoping he'll be a difference maker who improves the short yardage running game. Otherwise, I'm underwhelmed by the off-season attempts to improve Romo's supporting cast. T-New was a glaring weakness last season and obviously needed replacing...

I couldn't agree more.

Midswat, I'm with you on the Panthers. If Newton can cut back on the turnovers and/or if the Panthers' defense can get a bit better, they've got a good chance at being a playoff team.

I think you are right on both counts.

I feel the same way about Center, except there aren't that many candidates there. And somehow I doubt there will be a September waiver wire solution at Center. Oh well. I guess we'll get to test the hypothesis as to whether quality matters in the interior OL.

If I were Beasley, I'd get sick of the Caucasian-only comparisons.
