Leading Off-ish (5/8/09)

|

1. Dirk Nowitzki was cautioned by team officials to stay away from his girlfriend Cristal Taylor because of her criminal past. It was also noted that dirk had “dark bags under his eyes.” If you’ve ever seen a picture of me, you’ll know that my reaction to that was, “And what exactly is wrong with that?”

2. Irving’s oversight of the Cowboys practice facility that collapsed is now in question, as the city “has no record of the engineer who signed off on the project’s design [and] does not have the building’s blueprints or specifications on file, even though state officials said Thursday that those documents should be kept for the life of the building,” according to the DMN. Team and city officials blame T.O.

3.  I was going to write about Obama cutting border fence funds, but without comments, what’s the point? Instead, on this important day, let’s all take a moment to remember the absolute awesomeness of this man.
