Cowboys: Jerry Confirms Roster Talks as Defense Keeps Thinning

RF Sports Radio branded title card: Dallas Cowboys Jerry Jones roster talks as defense thins before Texans

isten up, Dallas — the M.A.S.H. unit just got a Jerry Jones subplot.

Owner/GM Jerry Jones told 105.3 The Fan the Cowboys have “conversations going on” about potential roster additions after a secondary that keeps taking hits. That comes as DallasCowboys.com’s Tuesday injury roundup laid out the damage: Jonathan Bullard is looking at three-to-five weeks with a calf, Jalen Thompson is out a minimum of four weeks and likely headed to IR with a designation to return, and Cobie Durant is unlikely to make the trip to Houston while he rehabs a hamstring.

The one bright note? Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Shavon Revel (knee/ankle) is progressing and will be worked back into practice this week — with a shot, not a promise, for Sunday. DeMarvion Overshown has a practice opportunity after missing two; Malik Hooker may still need more time. The club has even worked out former Cowboy Juanyeh Thomas and others as Christian Parker’s defense scrapes for healthy bodies.

Next up for the Dallas Cowboys (https://rfsportsradio.blogspot.com/search/label/Dallas%20Cowboys): Sunday, Oct. 4 at the winless Houston Texans. One-and-two after Rio, zero margin for another secondary meltdown. Radio question — does Jerry actually pull the trigger before kickoff?

I think they bring out buried feelings of joy and happiness in people that don’t often get to see the light of day anymore. Folks are happier, kids are giddier, and teens are pressing their folks for gifts, even on Mother’s and Father’s Day. But my favorite holiday of them all is Halloween. And it has absolutely nothing to do with costumes and or candy but rather the date on the calendar it represents. October 31st signifies the start of the basketball regular season! Either your team has one game under it's belt, or is preparing for game one or is glorifying a local television broadcast with fun Halloween graphics heading into and out of commercials. The 2013-2014 NBA season kicks off two days in advance of trick-or-treating with national broadcasts coming on October 29th put October in the rearview and gear up for the season ahead.

Lamar Odom: Flesh and Blood

by Matt Silverston Say what you want about Lamar Odom, and go ahead and criticize his lifestyle and the choices he's made, but I will never hesitate to stand up for those human beings who suffer from addiction and mental illness. Given that Odom's story as well as his whereabouts are uncertain and up-in-the-air at this time, the biggest issue at stake here is so much more than money, a reality TV drama, or a basketball hoop. His future livelihood as a healthy, spirited human being is under attack and in immediate jeopardy.
