It’s just a guess but ...


A story in Thursday’s Fort Worth Star-Telegram quotes Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on why the team has largely been silent about the collapse of its practice facility.

Jones said there are three reasons:

1. The team wants the full investigation to be complete.

2. It doesn’t want the employees who are still traumatized by the events and/or were injured to see more coverage of the day’s events until more time has passed.

3. Legal reasons.

Considering the collapse left a scouting assistant paralyzed from the waist down and sent two other staff members to the hospital — and considering the collapse is being investigated by United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration — I’m guessing that reason No. 3 is actually reasons No. 1, 2 and 3.
