Training at the NFL’s Cowboys stadium was delayed nearly two hours this morning, after a player reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the ground.

Initially the NFL team thought it was a prank. Training was immediately suspended, while police and Homeland Security officials were called to investigate.

After a complete analysis, Dallas Police forensic experts determined that the white substance, unfamiliar to most of the players, was in fact, the goal line.

Practice will resume this afternoon after Police and Homeland Security decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again.

2010 assessment done, next up “What to do 2010?”

-Put Stephen McGee in after 2 losses when the season will officially be over. Give him enough practice time to get used running the offense before throwing him to the wolves. He looked pretty damn decent in preseason, if he can’t play, we’re going to need 2 qbs in the offseason.

-After 2 losses, put Romo on Injured Reserve and scout other teams practice squads for 1 player.

-Cut the fat. I don’t even know enough about the players that never see the field to know what ones need to go, but I know there should be at least 4 players cut churn the bottom of the roster and put the fear of god in anyone not pushing to start.

2011 and beyond:

-Cut Barber. Jerry will save enough money by doing this that he can lower the price of beer at the new stadium from 58$ to 54$.

-Keep Roy Williams… weird I know, but he’s been good.

-“Jerry the owner needs to fire Jerry the GM”, couldn’t resist. It wouldn’t be a Cowboys post without those words being typed…

-Fire Wade. Then Fire Garrett. Then Fire Dave Campo, Fire Decamillis, Fire John Garrett, Fire Herring, Fire Houck, Fire Juraszek, Fire Pasqualoni, etc. Eliminate every single coach on the roster.

-Hire a coach, I don’t even care who. Jerry can stay GM, but let the new coach have 100% say on his staff. Let the new coach have 100% say on player discipline. Let the new coach have 100% say on the when, who and how to play the players Jerry gets and cuts.

-Draft big name school players with every pick that isn’t your #1 pick. I’m predicting #1-#7 overall and Jerry will want to get a big name and I’m OK with that. But every single other pick needs to be XXXX from Texas/OU/OhioSt/Alabama/etc. This team simply can not afford a talent prospect gamble. Disregard “upside” and aquire “meat”

-You may notice a trend that I am very Pro-Choice. I think he is pretty good, but he is a great leader. He needs to be the feature back.

And the winner for “you never saw that one coming” (seriously)

-Trade our draft picks for developed NFL players. My moneyball thoughts say draft picks are highly overrated right now. You want a solid offensive lineman, offer somebody a 5^th round pick for him. Even superstars like Moss are going for pennies on the dollar.
