Cooper was fined $14,650 by the NFL after he violated the league’s COVID-19 protocols. Since Cooper is unvaccinated, he is not allowed to sit courtside at games, especially without a mask.

CeeDee Lamb, the Cowboys’ top receiver this season, accompanied Cooper at the game. But since Lamb is vaccinated, he does not face similar discipline....

Opting to bat at Warner Park here on Sunday, Tridents were lifted to 175 for eight off their 20 overs by inspirational captain Kieron Pollard who smashed 63 from 36 balls, reports CMC. Leg-spinner Jeevan Mendis (2-15), off-spinner Ashley Nurse (2-16) and seamer Rayad Emrit (2-29) then shared the spoils as Tallawahs never recovered from eight for two in the third over, and collapsed to an embarrassing 87 all out off 15....

Still, the Ottawa Senators goalie had a scary moment in overtime of Sunday's game against the Dallas Stars; rookie winger Valeri Nichushkin collided with Anderson in the crease, and Anderson's neck took the brunt of the impact. Scary stuff, and Anderson indeed left the ice on a stretcher, but he was moving his arms and legs throughout and waived at the crowd, as well. Robin Lehner replaced Anderson and couldn't stop Dallas in the shootout; Ottawa lost 4-3....

It’s a 1-2 punch that hurts our veterans more than most realize. In particular, claims for disability benefits have surged. Thanks in large part to the dreadful combo of COVID shuttering and the Afghanistan War, federal records show that 583,904 claims for disability compensation and benefits are now pending with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). A disturbingly high 185,600 of these claims are considered backlogged, that is they have gone more than 125 days without action, skyrocketing past pre-COVID statistics....

Receiver CeeDee Lamb and safeties Israel Mukuamu and Malik Hooker were added to the list on Tuesday, joining defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and defensive tackle Carlos Watkins, who were sent home from the team’s Saturday meeting against the Texans with COVID-19 concerns.

Jerry Jones discussed what went into the Cowboys’ decision to move on from the defensive end on local radio station 105.3 The FAN ahead of the Week 3 matchup. “I think we always got to realize on the motivation — we depend on motivation,” Jones said....

The final tally for the 34-year-old Cowboys quarterback was about four hours. Romo isn’t worried about getting hit. He thinks he can play several more years, even joking Thursday that he’ll still be taking snaps when he’s 45. But he knows he will have to alter his routine significantly after a herniated disk in a season-saving win at Washington led to back surgery that forced him out of a loss in a playoffs-or-bust finale against Philadelphia....

So the question for the Cowboys, fresh off a 31-28 win over the Giants on Sunday night and ahead of a Thanksgiving showdown against the Eagles: How long can their overachieving defense keep the ball in DeMarco Murray’s hands?

His message to the boys? Be thankful, and be ready to come back strong next week. “It was definitely a message of support,” defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford told reporters (per dallasnews.com). “He told us to sit back, take a look at ourselves, take a look at what’s around us, see how blessed we are on this Thanksgiving Day and just go into next week knowing that we’re blessed to be in this position and take advantage of it....

If he misses, the refrain from Dallas fans figures to be something along the lines of, “Dan Bailey woulda made it.” The Cowboys factored that into their surprising decision to release the second-most accurate kicker in league history because of Bailey’s struggles after an injury last season and the relatively large salary for his position. They replaced him with a 28-year-old training camp journeyman with four years of CFL experience in Maher, who wasn’t in the locker room when it was open to reporters Tuesday....

They came in the form of plentiful power-play opportunities. Richard Panik and Alex Galchenyuk each had a goal and an assist, and the Coyotes capitalized on two of five Washington penalties to add to the Capitals’ penalty-killing struggles in a 4-1 victory on Sunday. “Getting a couple of power-play goals helped,” said Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet. “I thought we skated pretty good.
