Calvin Watkins drops two bombs about Ellis and Glenn

First let's get to the Greg Ellis and bomb #1, read here.

Dallas Cowboys outside linebacker Greg Ellis will not participate in the last day of organized team activities today because he's upset with his repetitions being reduced in practice, sources said.

Ellis missed the first two days of OTAs this week and doesn't plan on coming back to practice at Valley Ranch unless he gets more repetitions.

Last week, the Cowboys told Ellis some of his practice time would be reduced to give 2007 first-round pick Anthony Spencer more time on the field.

According to the sources, the Cowboys have told Ellis they don't want to wear down his 32-year-old body in May. But a source said Ellis doesn't trust the team's motives.

Man Greg Ellis is one major headache every freaking offseason! Why can't he just show up, practice and play football? He always has to have some weird scenario running around in his head.

Simply put, Greg Ellis thinks way to damn much and it's completely annoying at this point!

Now onto bomb #2 about Terry Glenn, read here.

Because of the fragile status of his right knee, the team has requested that Glenn accept a $500,000 settlement that would go into effect if he re-injures the knee and is lost for the season, sources said.

Glenn has refused to sign the settlement, and until he does, the Cowboys will not allow him to practice.

"I really want to play," Glenn said. "I thought the team had confidence in what I was doing in the off-season program that I can make it through the season. But with this contract, there might not be that much faith at all." 

Goodbye Terry Glenn. I would do the same thing Jerry is doing. The guy's knee is barely holding up so just move and release him already.
 
Let the young guys get some reps and then work with Crayton and T.O. for 2008 if need be. The offense was potent enough last season without Glenn and this team doesn't need any more headaches right now.
 
Never a dull moment in Cowboys Nation, never!!!
