Sorry about that TG, here's the story:

IRVING - Coming soon to a television near you: All Cowboys all the time.

According to several sources, the Cowboys are set to launch their own 24-hour channel on Comcast Cable.

The Cowboys and Comcast Corporation are expected to make a formal announcement, possibly as soon as Wednesday.

The channel is expected to be available this season to roughly 500,000 Comcast cable customers in the Fort Worth-Dallas area.

The sources said the Cowboys will produce four to six hours of original programming that will run daily on the channel. They will include the Jerry Jones Show and Cowboys Huddle, which features coach Bill Parcells. Those two shows could only air after they appear on KTVT/Channel 11 because of prior contract arrangements. The Cowboys might also show their preseason games and Bill Parcells' daily news conferences.

Other shows in the works are reporter round tables, a possible Cowboys SportsCenter, and a morning Internet radio show produced by DallasCowboys.com and featuring Mickey Spagnola and Bill Jones as hosts.

Outside of the original programming, the channel could air reruns of past games and Cowboys Broadcasting Network programs.
