Former Tennessee Titan and Dallas Cowboy Adam Pac-Man Jones has signed a one-year deal with the CFL's Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Good luck.

The Bombers get what they want: a reason for someone to remember if Winnipeg has two i's or two e's. Jones gets what he wants: money and a chance to show anyone he's not a bad guy.

He'll also get cold. NHL guys are glad that the Winnipeg Jets moved because there is no where colder than that place during the winter. The good news is that the Blue Bombers are 3-5 right now so their season most likely will end in November. But think how cold Buffalo and Minneapolis (there's that word again!) are in the fall.

It will be interesting to see if he gets into any trouble in Winnipeg. It ain't Dallas or even Nashville. Also interesting since the Bombers ... like the Green Bay Packers ... are a community owned franchise (as are fellow CFL teams in Edmonton and Saskatchewan).

Cowboys feel good about Doug Free

By and large, the Cowboys' backups have had a bad preseason. LT Doug Free is an exception. Free has performed well enough that Flozell Adams' backup isn't a big concern. That's a significant chance since the start of training camp, which is why Leonard Davis got some reps at left tackle in the Alamodome. Free, a fourth-round pick in 2007, has been a bright spot...

Felix Jones won't return punts

The Cowboys experimented with Felix Jones returning punts this off-season. That experiment has been put on hold. Special teams coach Joe DeCamillis said that Patrick Crayton and Terence Newman will return punts when the Cowboys open the regular season in Tampa Bay. Jones will continue to field some punts in practice but won't be part of the game rotation. "We've kind...
