I don't mind what the Cowboys do either. But it's different.

Rangers have only invited these guys to Spring Training, which is basically an invite-only tryout. No guarantees...no roster spot.
Cowboys sign these guys to deals, and give them a roster spot.

a roster spot that can be nixed at any given point. There is no commitment involved.

Its no different than in Baseball. He is taking up a spot there too.

So, you guys are saying they can invite as many people as they want to spring training? Is this true?

No he isn't. No roster spot was given to him. he will. Just like Pac man didn't take a roster spot until the beginning of the season. Also, at anytime you can deactivate/activate players in the NFL. If one isn't producing, add another from the practice squad. Its no different than in baseball. So, you guys are saying they can invite as many people as they want to spring training? Is this true? No. There are limits. That is why I don't get what they are trying to say. He takes a spot, just like Pac Man did. |
