Posted: May 2, 2009

IRVING, Texas (AP) -- An air-supported practice bubble that covers a practice at the Dallas Cowboys' facility collapsed during a strong thunderstorm on Saturday.

At least four members of the team's support staff are being taken to the hospital, a Cowboys spokesman told the Dallas Morning News. All players and coaches are believed to be safe.

Emergency medical technicians were seen entering portions of the bubble that were still standing.

Irving fire-rescue officials ordered all reporters and team personnel away from the immediate area.

just got word from someone i know in the dallas area that he didn't know about any tornadoes that came through but said it had been a constant heavy downpour for about an hour that dropped a lot of rain.

So the same as the cowboys seson...gets overblown and deflates in the end!!!

Glad no one was seriously hurt...Wonder if Jerry could've afforded a better one??

it sounds like it is a temporary structure.

i do wonder if this was an omen about this coming season for them but how would you know? roof seems to collapse on the every year once the pressure is put on them.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
