Another day, another emergency edition of PFTPM,

how could we not convene, even though it is after five o'clock Eastern time to discuss

one of the biggest trades that has happened in a very long time, an unlikely

resolution to an ugly situation that had reached the point of no return.

The Cowboys apparently realizing it at some point on Thursday, it sounds like things

happened quickly.

I checked in yesterday on this potential Green Bay Packers' interest in Michael Parsons, Cowboys

Linebacker.

Now, Packers Linebacker, it's still weird to say it.

It's going to be even weirder to see it.

And I was told that the interest was real, but it wasn't as far along as the smoke

that was on social media would indicate. Well, the past 24 hours took things up a few

notches and the deal got done. We first got the indication earlier in the afternoon when ESPN

reported that for the first time the cowboys are willing to listen

to the calls they had been getting about Michael Parsons.

So one day short of four weeks after he asked to be traded, he gets his wish.

And he never rescinded it.

And it always felt real.

And the Cowboys misplated every step of the way.

Let's make no mistake about it.

Let's call it what it is.

This is a colossal screw-up by the Dallas Cowboys.
