We love you just the way you are

First, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones cuts Pacman Jones loose.

Then comes word he’ll not lift a finger to keep Tank Johnson from leaving as a free agent.

Then there are whispers he might — gulp — release Terrell Owens, all for the sake of locker room amity.

Could Jones finally be wising up?

"I think we all know that chemistry is the problem with this team more than the schemes or anything else," a Cowboys source told ESPN’s Ed Werder. "Are we going to continue to allow talent to outweigh everything else in the decisions we make with players and putting the roster together? We're like the Redskins used to be when they signed every player they wanted. There's more to it than talent. It has to be more about the team.''

As a longtime Cowboys hater, one who's enjoyed watching the team implode because of the low character of Jerry's favorites, I can only make this plea: "Say it ain’t so."

"I think some of people want to just cut our losses and get rid of all those guys _ TO, Tank, Pacman,'' another Cowboys source said. "But I really think Jerry likes the thrill of trying to make it all work."

Whew!
