A reader has passed along to us the following gem from former Cowboys running back Emmitt Smith, regarding the challenges presented by players like Pacman Jones, who’ll be a Cowboy if/when he’s reinstated by Commissioner Roger Goodell.

Says Emmitt:  “You can be with the guy and in his ear 24 hours a day, but at the end of the day you can’t be there the whole time.”

Emmitt, thank you for helping us end the day with a smile on our face.
