like he was going to do any good anyway.

I heard on the radio last night I believe, when they were airing the Dan Patrick Show, that the Cowboys are going to cut T.O.

Don't think that is going to do much good either.

Stories are out now...
RVING -- Former long-time NFL coach Dan Reeves got an office and phone extension at the Dallas Cowboys’ Valley Ranch headquarters on Monday.

Two days later, the man who was supposed to come in and be a consultant and overseer -- while helping instill discipline into the organization -- is out, continuing what has been off-season of discontent for the Cowboys.

According to sources, Reeves and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones couldn’t come to an agreement on duties and/or compensation, ending the relationship.

According to another source, there was never any contentiousness in the negotiations, while saying the two sides differed on Reeves’ schedule and how much he would be at the the team’s headquarters and practices with Jones wanting more of a full-time committment than Reeves, 65, was willing to give at this point in his career.

The Cowboys, who had never formally announced or even talked about the impending union, released a statement from public relations director Rich Dalrymple.

"We had two very good days of dialogue with Dan Reeves, and both the Cowboys and Dan had an interest in working together," Dalrymple wrote. "By Wednesday afternoon, we were unable to reach an agreement on all of the details of a contract, and both parties were comfortable with the fact that Dan would not be joining the organization. Jerry (Jones) holds Dan in the highest regard as a friend and a tremendous contributor to the history of the Cowboys and the NFL."

Reeves was unavailable for comment.

The Cowboys’ off-season has featured primarily bad news following the disappointing and embarrassing end to the 2008 season that began with them talking about making the Super Bowl but saw them finish 9-7 and not even make the playoffs.

Special teams coach Bruce Read and defensive coordinator Brian Stewart were fired. Linebacker Anthony Spencer was arrested for drunken and disorderly conduct. The team nearly lost offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, who interviewed for head coaching jobs in Detroit, Denver and St. Louis. He lost out on all three.

Tight end Martellus Bennett was fined $22,000 last week for conduct detrimental to the team because of a profanity-laced and inappropriate rap video on his YouTube Channel Marty B T.V.

They have also dealt with questions about team chemistry, leadership and whether the team will part ways with receiver Terrell Owens.

Cowboys coach Wade Phillips and Jones promised change and that the organization would re-examine how they did things. The hiring of Reeves was supposed to be a step in that direction.

But that apparently didn’t work out, either.
