We've been saying it for weeks. In our view, a day will arrive in which Cowboys coach Bill Parcells tells owner Jerry Jones that Jones has a choice to make -- player or coach; T.O. or Tuna.

ESPN's Ed Werder reports that they day could be coming. Citing a source close to Parcells and familiar with the Tuna's thinking, Werder says that an ultimatum could arise if the problems with Owens continue. And the players, as we've reported, are getting fed up. One player told Werder that Owens is like a "bucket with a hole in it," and that "no matter how much you put in, you can never fill it up." The key to the situation continues to be Jones, who has been T.O.'s chief enabler. Werder says that, when Jones was asked about whether there would be any discipline arising from Owens' recent dust-up with receivers coach Todd Haley, Jones angrily said, "Yeah, against Haley. This is not a reflection on T.O."
