Dallas Cowboys following the Mavericks soft example
READ MORE:
What's going on with Dallas sports these days?

First, the Dallas Mavericks set a new low for being soft in the 1st round. Now, the Dallas Cowboys are taking their turn sucking on the pacifier.

Poor Bill Parcells is a meanie. A big, bad bossy man that makes them cry. The Dallas Cowboys minicamp has turned into one big complain-fest about Bill Parcells, while applauding the new coach.

Julius Jones points the finger towards the Hall of Fame coach for his sub-par season:
"Maybe I was being told a little bit where to run and wasn't really able to use my instincts," Jones said at minicamp. "Maybe I listened to (Parcells) a little too much and was kind of running like a robot."
Naturally, Terrell Owens had to dump some baggage saying he got "Nothing, really" out of his one season and went on to praise the new philosophy:
"Everybody knows he's a laid-back coach, obviously a little different than Bill. ... I don't think you have to be a disciplinarian to get your point across," Owens said. "I think having a new head coach is good for everybody.

"It's a little bit more relaxed. I think you can tell that by the atmosphere in the locker room. I don't think I just have to really spell it out for you, but I think it's very evident."
Translation: Bill Parcells was strict, Wade Phillips is soft. Boo-ho.

Who knows, maybe we'll find out the stress free life under Wade Phillips will work out but I sure wouldn't want to hear a football team complaining about discipline.

I think it's Jones way of telling Garrett "hey, this is my contract year, give me the ball and I'll run where I want to, understand."  It'll be interesting to see how Garrett splits playing time between Barber and Jones

Great, I am glad to see you are in line with ESPN and not telling the whole story.  I didn't realize that Julius Jones and T.O. made up the entire 52 man roster.   Most of what you got from T.O. was actually an ESPN spin, their way of making a nonstory a story.  Here is a copy of the T.O. transcript of what was actually said: http://dallascowboys.com/news.cfm?id=91D4F0B2-FE63-FDA9-3BB25862A2D03837
