The Dallas Cowboys have taken a hard look at themselves in the mirror and they’re ready to make changes to improve the way that they’re viewed. They’ve realized that signing Greg Hardy was a mistake. They know now that they should’ve cut Hardy, at the latest when photos of his battered and bruised ex, Nicole Holder were released. They know that Dez Bryant’s attitude is toxic. They’re ready to start over.
In a huge announcement on Tuesday, the Cowboys announced new social media rules for reporters. Wait, what? They’re kidding, right?

I guess not. You mean to tell me that after all of the nonsense that they’ve allowed to go on within their organization for years dating back to the 90’s, this is what they’ve chosen to take a stand on? Good grief these guys are absolutely clueless.

One of the funnier rules is that there can be “NO detailed speculation as to the nature or severity of an injury or level of practice participation, until the injury report is issued.” This is absurd. Essentially, they’re telling the media just to stand still and do nothing. I wonder if reporters are allowed to breathe.
They have a lot of nerve with this. Instead of punishing the shit bags on their team, they’re going after the media. Yeah – that makes sense. Screw off Jerry!
