FRISCO, Texas -- Jason Witten glanced overhead at a giant picture of him above the walkway to the new indoor practice stadium for the Dallas Cowboys. Wholesale Shoes Authentic .Defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli turned one way through a crowd of media members, only to reappear seconds later going the other way, not afraid to admit he was lost.The Cowboys had their first workday Sunday at their new practice facility -- part headquarters, part spa, part museum with amenities the players probably couldnt have imagined at aging Valley Ranch.I mean, words cant describe it, Witten said about the site about 30 miles north of Dallas. Its an unbelievable facility.Historical displays from a franchise with five Super Bowl titles are scattered through the football wing and the adjacent headquarters, an office building with a view of the outdoor practice fields on one side.The cramped training room at the old facility in Irving has been replaced by multiple rooms and rehab pools, including one with a surface that moves up and down to accommodate players limited by movement coming off surgery. It also has underwater cameras for athletic trainers to see a players feet hitting the surface.And the football-shaped locker room dwarfs the previous one.Probably have to yell if you want to talk to some of the guys down the way, running back Darren McFadden said. But its definitely a great layout.Dallas just finished training camp in California and played the first home preseason game two days before the official move-in to the new headquarters, which was commemorated by a ribbon cutting with owner Jerry Jones and all the dignitaries associated with a project that ultimately will cost more than $1 billion.While the Jones family celebrated outside, the Cowboys practiced inside in their own place for the first time since the spring of 2009, when a severe storm destroyed their indoor facility at Valley Ranch.There is still the business of football, an easy thing to forget amid the hoopla.I think our guys will get that message today from coach (Jason) Garrett, defensive tackle Tyrone Crawford said. And if they dont get it from coach Garrett, theyll definitely get it from me. This is nice. Enjoy it for the day. Get the way around the land and then get back to football. Thats got to be the message.The players have a new team meeting room that seats more than 150. Position group meeting rooms have huge TVs, with large murals of previous stars (Troy Aikman in the quarterback room, for instance). Cafeteria doesnt seem like an elaborate enough word for a dining facility that will feed the players and host parties.When they practice outside, the Cowboys will have a turf field and a grass field. The weight room has a great field-level view of both, along with dozens of dumbbells that have the Cowboys famous star logo on the side.The lockers have cushion seat backs that open for storage. The helmets are illuminated in small cubicles and would like they were for display only if they didnt have scars from game use on them.Its just beautiful, quarterback Tony Romo said. Until you set foot in this place, you cant appreciate it.It was easy to forget that the Cowboys have another preseason game in four days (Thursday night at Seattle). And the regular-season opener Sept. 11 at their suddenly secondary $1.2 billion stadium against the New York Giants.And it was easy to forget that much of the memorabilia already stuffed inside the new facility -- with plenty more coming -- is from Super Bowl eras now at least 20 years old. The Cowboys last reached the title game 21 years ago, and 31 years since their old home in Irving opened.The great thing about Valley Ranch over all those years were the championships those guys formed and won, said Witten, going into his 14th season along with Romo. Thats what you want to create here. All of this is great, but then you have to go and take the next step and that is win football games.Just give Marinelli a few days to find his office.---Online:AP NFL websites: http://pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Schuyler Dixon on Twitter at https://twitter.com/apschuyler China Shoes 2020 .

NHL players are going to the 2014 Winter Olympics. It took months of deliberation, but participation in the games was made official after an agreement was reached between the league, the NHL Players Association and the International Ice Hockey Federation. "I think like everyone thought it was just kind of a matter of time, working out logistics," Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby said. "With it being a little further in Russia Im sure there was a little bit more work to do. Im glad that were going and obviously excited to kind of start the process." Commissioner Gary Bettman has been optimistic for several weeks about a deal getting done. But until it was finalized there was uncertainty about players going to the Games in Sochi, Russia, despite NBC securing broadcast rights for the games and players expressing the desire to go. "The decision to participate in the XXII Olympic Winter Games in Sochi was in many ways a difficult one, but one that we know will be well received by our players and, most importantly, by the vast majority of our fans and sports fans everywhere," Bettman said in a statement. It will be the fifth Olympics featuring NHL players since they were first allowed to represent their countries in 1998. The NHL will interrupt its season from Feb. 9-26 for the tournament, which will take place from Feb. 12-23. The 2013-14 NHL schedule, delayed until this deal was finalized, was released later Friday.

You start to kind of think about it and obviously with it being announced that were going." Overall its been an up-and-down experience for Canada at the Olympics.

"Just being Canadian you realize pretty quickly that people come together that time of year, especially, and when its hockey even more so," Crosby said. "I think that you want to go there and find a way to win gold." Some Russian stars, including Alex Ovechkin, have said they would go to Sochi regardless of NHL permission. Washington Capitals owner Ted Leonsis even said he would allow Ovechkin to go with or without the leagues blessing. That is no longer an issue the league or players association needs to worry about. "The players are very pleased that an agreement has been reached that will allow the worlds best hockey players to compete at the Winter Games in February," NHLPA executive director Don Fehr said in a statement. "Having the opportunity to wear their nations sweater in Sochi is something the players look forward to."

But were just starting to look into that now with the agreement being done today." ' ' '
