Today the Cowboys will begin a mini-camp lasting until Thursday, the 19th, the only one so far that is mandatory this off season.  It will be of great interest to see who participates and who doesn’t, but only one is truly expected not to attend, S Ken Hamlin.
Hamlin has not signed his franchise offer for [...]

Live-Blogging Still Not Allowed By NFL

Just in from Cowboys media and other sources, the NFL has reenacted the “no live blogging” rule again this year which basically doesn’t allow anyone in the actual press section of an NFL game to blog live while watching the game. 
I know the NFL has always had the warning/disclaimer about rebroadcasting or any other representation [...]
