Sounds like a real group of "motivated" players. Look for the Cowboys to again be 0 - 2 against my Eagles this upcoming season. The Cowboys have little or no chance of 8 wins this upcoming season and ZERO chance of getting in the playoffs! Ha!

Owens getting his bonus from Cowboys, not practicing
IRVING, Texas (AP) -- Terrell Owens will get his $3 million roster bonus from the Dallas Cowboys even though, like several other starters, he hasn't been practicing with the team.
Owens will get that bonus, plus a $5 million salary for the 2007 season, since he was still on the roster Friday, when he was again absent from voluntary organized team activities.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones had repeatedly said since the end of last season that Owens, who had 85 catches for 1,180 yards and an NFL-high 13 touchdowns, would remain with the team. Jones wasn't made available for comment Friday.
Terry Glenn, the other starting receiver, has also missed organized team activities this week. Glenn got a $5 million roster bonus in March, but his salary will only be about $820,000.
Among other players who have missed training the past two weeks are running back Julius Jones, Pro Bowl safety Roy Williams and linebacker DeMarcus Ware.
Owens took part in the mandatory minicamp two weeks ago while recovering from two operations this offseason to repair a torn tendon in his right ring finger. He caught passes and took part in offensive drills without any problems from the finger.
The Cowboys gave Owens a $25 million, three-year contract when they signed him in the spring of 2006.

Edit; At least Philly did their best to mimic a football score (13-0) tonight!

Phillies have taken a step back from some good progress. They really needed to continue with that progress which I had every expectation that they would.
I've been watching baseball standings for a long time, and doing some quick math, and understanding the teams, it's going to be very difficult for the Phillies to make the playoffs unless some really good winning begins immediately. Any slumps at this point and the season is basically over.
But that's okay because I can still root against the Mets in the playoffs.
the only thing he is doing is vacuuming up money. Drew and Tuna jumped the quitters wagon, and all that is left is
who knows who as head coach and Tony Budderfingers Romo.
Its funny, there was ten times the smack last year at this time from Cgirls fan, but this year its deathly silent. Its no fun when your
team sucks and others dominate.
Speaking of dominate, the Bucs have solidified their place as the 07 Champs by picking up the last missing links. Thats right, Gaines
Adams is coming into a living room near you, and he will be carrying the likes of Drew Brees, Mike Vick and Jake Delcrapp with
him. look for Bucs domination once again. Caddy is over the 06 speed bump, its clear sailing ahead.
Eagles and Cgirls are still looking for rings, or donuts..take your pick. Bucs will be reeeling in their second in four years.

It could get ugly beyond the most loyal Cowboys fan's belief. Rosie O'Donnell naked and bending over ugly - yes it could get that ugly!

Yes, I took it way too far and I profusely apologize.

Very imaginitive and humourous. However, the visual picture that in conjures is totally uncalled for. >>
I agree with you. I just drafted a long letter of complaint to the CU moderators to please delete that particular post immediately!
