On how many NFL teams are asking themselves, “how did we let the Cowboys just walk out and sign Lae’el Collins?” King: â€œThat’s a great question. Give credit to the Cowboys. That was a stealth bombing. You know what’s amazing? I was thinking about this today, the Dallas Cowboys finished this draft, after the undrafted free agency thing, the Dallas Cowboys finished this draft with three of the top 20 players on their board. Now on their football board, let’s say that, because Byron Jones is going to be top-20 everything — great character, all that other stuff. Now La’el Collins, as a player, is a top-20 prospect, and certainly Randy Gregory as a player is a top-20 prospect. So the Cowboys, and when you think about it, and I got to figure it out — think about the money that they’re going to spend on Randy Gregory and La’el Collins and think that here are two guys who are going to be two of the top-20 talents on their roster come opening day. "And I bet combined that — I bet the average salary of those two guys this year is going to be a million dollars. If that. And so to me, the Cowboys caught a tremendous break in some ways. That is only if you believe that Randy Gregory is — in the Cowboys system and in the nest with the Cowboys, and I believe that what Dallas is going to do, I believe strongly that they are going to find a way to get everything about Randy Gregory to get taken care of — his off-the-field stuff, his mental issues, his marijuana issues — all that stuff. That they’re not just going to do some things for him, they’re going to figure out a system of care to take care of Randy Gregory. And again, I don’t know if it’s going to work; he could be too far gone. I have no idea. But I think that the Cowboys are probably going to put a system in place to give him a chance.”

3 run HR by Choo!!! Game tied at 7

The RANGERS are starting to remind me of a bad high school team. They are finding new ways to lose games each night. They just gave up a run by hitting a batter, on an 0-2 count, with bases loaded. Then, on the next at bat, caught the runner at 3rd in a run down only to have the catcher throw the ball into left field to give up a run.

A fighter that is 47-0 is not afraid. It's a mental game.
