1st!

Awesome news on both fronts. It astounds me that Jerry Jones spent $95 million on the two guys.

Newman got a six year deal worth $50m and a $12m signing bonuse. Pretty sweet.

Barber got a seven year deal for $45m, with $16m in guranteed bonuses.

It seems Barber might be a tad bit overpaid, but I’m not complaining!

Did you see the DMN post about Newman’s age. He is a little old for a contract like this. You ever wonder what the short term effect of no salary cap will be. Apparently, in 2010 there won’t be a cap. Maybe Jerry Jones is trying to sign every player possible now instead of 1-2 year extension deals… who knows.

As a Dallasite, it is very frustrating to have these great teams; ‘Boys and ‘Mavs, yet fail so miserably in the playoffs. I like the moves JJ is making. The draft made sense as well as these latest contract moves. What I can’t get my head around is what they need to do to prepare for the playoffs.

Injuries are a much bigger deal at the end of the season. I think we got lucky on that score last year. But without a injury its hard to see how we don’t have a good shot to go all the way this year.

I’m a huge Romo fan. When he is “on” he is as good as anybody. When is off you just scracth your head and wonder why.

Cya guys at Oxnard!
