IRVING – There's a reason you didn't see Rowdy on the field very often Sunday.
The Cowboys' lovably obnoxious mascot has been placed on double-secret probation with the NFL. That darn rabble-rouser's trouble started when T.O. and Rowdy exchanged a chest bump after a touchdown in the Monday night game against the Eagles.
Some uptight NFL dudes got their britches in a bunch about prearranged celebrations involving mascots and threatened to slap the Cowboys with a five-figure fine. Jerry Jones, who had some trust issues with Rowdy during training camp, eventually decided that it'd be in the Cowboys' best interests to minimize the mascot's exposure during games.
Rowdy is supposed to be banished to the locker room after the pregame festivities, but he hung around long enough to catch the opening kickoff of Sunday's win over San Francisco. The overgrown foam fella did pop up on the stadium big screens early in the fourth quarter, but he was far, far from the action on the field, mingling with folks in the upper deck.
I know this is a massive blow to lifelong Cowboys fans, so I'll end on a positive note. Rowdy's role was first reduced for the Tampa Bay game, and the Cowboys have somehow managed to win two straight home games without his help.

Crazy Ray is one of the few exceptions.
