Terence Newman Groin Injury

Cowboys CB Terence Newman will have an MRI taken on his groin after getting tangled up in practice this afternoon. This shouldn't be a shock to any Cowboys fans because Terence Newman is always getting hurt and he's old now (32). And yet, the Cowboys have done nothing to address their secondary which was downright disgusting (actually disgusting....this is not meant to be a good connotation) last season. Yet EVERY SINGLE CULPRIT, from that horde of misfits is still on the team. Alan Ball is the only one who won't get a starting job this season. They re-signed Sensebaugh, who is decent at best. Jenkins had an abysmal year last season and Newman wasn't much better. Compile that with the fact that Newman will almost certainly not make it through the entire season and you have a situation that can best be described as fucked.

Why not at least sign some people to create competition. How can we not punish Jenkins for his play last season. How can we continue to rely on old CB's who get injured and who just don't have it anymore? The Cowboys best area is not on offense or defense. It is their PR department, because year after year they somehow get us to believe that all these crusty old, washed up, worthless veterans are going to bounce back and take the league by storm. The Cowboys need to address this secondary situation now.
