Want to be a Cowboy

Reality TV offers spot on Cowboys Roster

Michael Irvin will host a cable television reality show this spring during which 12 “football neophytes” will compete for a spot on the Dallas Cowboys’ opening 80-player training camp roster.

The show’s lineup will include six receivers and six defensive backs. It will air on Spike TV during the spring.

“I’ve been waiting to do this since the first time I watched American Idol,” Irvin said Thursday. “ American Idol is about singing and dreams. This is about football and dreams.”

Irvin said the concept for the show is his. He will serve as an executive producer for the show, which does not yet have a name. Irvin is working with 3 Ball Productions, the reality television company responsible for NBC’s The Biggest LoserBiggest Losers.

Irvin says former Cowboys teammates like Deion Sanders and former coaches will appear on the show as will Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who gave his blessing to the project.

“Nobody believes more in dreams than Jerry Jones,” Irvin said.

Spike is available in 97.7 million television homes. That’s about the same number of homes as ESPN.

Cowboys spokesman Rick Dalrymple emphasized the show will be completed long before the team reports to training camp in San Antonio.

“It’s kind of an extension of when the Cowboys used to have open public tryouts at Texas Stadium and sign two or three individuals to take to training camp,” Dalrymple said.

Dalrymple said reports that Jones will serve as a guest judge and help select the finalist are inaccurate.

“This is nothing like Hard Knocks was last summer,” Irvin said. “That was invasive. We are not. We won’t change one thing the Cowboys do to prepare for the season except we’ll find them a player.”

How very sad for the Cowboys organization.

I'd love to do it, but I don't think I'm qualified...

I've never had a hooker.

I've never been arrested on gun charges.

I've never been involved in a Las Vegas nightclub shooting.

I've never made it rain in a strip club.

I've never been caught in a Dallas hotel room with hookers and blow.

And I've never done sit ups on my driveway while whining about my contract situation.

I was just thinking how I would not fit in with the Cowboys because of this. I wonder if Michael will run the drill on "what to do when caught with hookers and blow in a hotel room"

Point of order - it was Las Colinas My bus went by that hotel daily. It wasn't unusual to see Michael in that area in his car. I kept on thinking it was because Valley Ranch wasn't far away. Unfortunaly it was the Valley Ranch Hooker and Cocaine Club.

All the ladies love Tony.

He actually had daisies in his holster because he couldn't bring his guns, obviously. So, he'd "draw" the daisies and give them to the girls in his class and his teachers.

GEORGE (singing): Everybody's talkin' at me...I can't hear a word they're sayin'...just drivin' around in Jon Voight's car...

JERRY (yelling from his room): Kramer! <We hear Kramer's door slam open and shut. Kramer enters. Jerry comes out of his room.> Hey! Where's all my sneakers?

KRAMER: You said take 'em.

JERRY: Not all of 'em!

KRAMER: Well, obviously there was a miscommunication.

JERRY: Obviously. So what am I supposed to wear?

KRAMER: Jerry, I left you a pair right here...<goes into Jerry's room and comes out with a pair of cowboy boots.> C'mon. There, put on those boots.

JERRY: I can't wear these!

KRAMER: Well, why not?

JERRY: They're uncomfortable.

KRAMER: C'mon here, try 'em on. <Jerry sits down and puts the boots on.>

GEORGE: Where did you get those?

JERRY: I worked a club in Dallas one time and they couldn't afford to pay me so they gave me these. Oh, I can't wear these! <Stands up.> They look ridiculous!

KRAMER: Ah, you look like a cowboy! Huh?

JERRY: But I don't wanna be a cowboy!
