Wade gets muzzle removed – for a day
Well, it seems head coach Jerry is allowing his assistants to speak. For a day, at least, and then the muzzle will be re-applied to the assistants since only head coach Jones has the whole picture. It’s sad that your actual head coach gets neutered like this, but it’s right on par with how Jerry operates “his” team. Below is a report by Mike Florio.
WADE GETS TO TALK
Posted by Mike Florio on March 23, 2009, 12:00 a.m. EDT
The muzzle has been removed from Cowboys coach Wade Phillips.
Though owner Jerry Jones had said that he’ll provide the lone voice for the franchise during the offseason, Matt Mosley of ESPN.com reports that Phillips will be permitted to speak on Wednesday at the league meetings in California.
Our guess is that the gag order was imposed for one reason only — to ensure that there would be no disclosure of the internal deliberations that culminated in Terrell Owens’ release on March 4.
