IRVING, Texas -- By the third time in a matter of two minutes that Dez Bryant said he was ready to "focus on football," he laughed. Terrell Suggs White Jersey . The Dallas Cowboys receiver knew he was being repetitive. He just wasnt really sure what else to say once he had announced Thursday that he was "excited" to have an agreement with prosecutors that could lead to dismissal of a family violence charge over a dispute with his mother. Bryant is attending anger management sessions, and the Dallas County district attorneys office will dismiss the misdemeanour charge if the third-year receiver stays out of trouble for a year. Bryants attorney, Texas state Sen. Royce West, arranged the deal. "He did a great job and took care of it," Bryant said. "That situation is behind me, and Im just focused on football right now." Bryant was arrested in July in suburban Dallas after he allegedly hit his mother, Angela Bryant, in the face with a ball cap. A police affidavit says he also grabbed her T-shirt. His mother formally asked prosecutors not to pursue the case. Speaking to reporters in the Cowboys locker room, the third-year receiver said he appreciated the support of his teammates and acknowledged being disappointed that the incident happened. Mostly, he said he was relieved. "I just feel better, man, that its done and its over with," Bryant said. The counselling program is set up through the office of Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins, and the charge will be dropped if Bryant doesnt get arrested during his year in the program, said spokeswoman Debbie Denmon. "Craig Watkins feels that the conditional dismissal is the best solution for all parties involved," Denmon said. "We looked at the family violence assault case and determined that one year of counselling was needed to make Dez a good citizen." According to reports, the Cowboys agreed to provide Bryant a security team while restricting his off-field activities. The Cowboys havent commented specifically on those limitations. "Like we said right from the start, we support Dez and his family," Dallas coach Jason Garrett said. "No real comment beyond that." Bryant was projected as a top 10 draft pick but fell to the Cowboys at No. 24 in 2010 in part because of a troubled past. He missed almost all of his final season at Oklahoma State after the NCAA suspended him for lying about having dinner with Deion Sanders. There were pre-draft rumours that Bryant skipped meetings and classes at Oklahoma State, and his pro day was marred by banter that he had forgotten the cleats he planned to wear for the workout. He has also run into trouble off the field since the Cowboys drafted him, and his production in Dallas has been spotty. He has a pair of 100-yard games this year, but he followed one of those with a one-catch game against Atlanta. Bryant has 45 catches for 590 yards and three touchdowns, and says he thinks hes improving. "I feel like I put in time, a little bit of extra time to be able to feel more comfortable in the offence and asking questions instead of keeping my mouth closed," Bryant said. "I feel like that helped me out a lot." Michael Oher Jersey . And the ultra-competitive Clemens, now a half-century old, was quick to point out just how well he did against that group of geezers. "I hit two homers, by the way," he said. Dennis Pitta Limited Jersey . Gonzalez allowed three hits over six innings and Ian Desmond homered and drove in both runs to lead the Nationals to a 2-1 victory Monday night. http://www.nflproshopravens.com/dennis-pitta-jerseys .ca is providing reports for all seven Canadian teams going into the big event on June 22. Terrell Suggs Black Jersey . Joe Flacco threw for 299 yards and two touchdowns, Ed Reed took an interception 34 yards for a score, and the Ravens rolled to a 44-13 victory Monday night to extend their home winning streak to 11 games. Torrey Smith Black Jersey . Although, in truth, the Montreal middleweight never left. While Cote last fought in the Octagon in October 2010 at UFC 121, he has been a constant on all UFC broadcasts in his role as the organizations French-language commentator.They both started the week outside the top 100 on the FedEx Cup list but both soared on to the second stage with brilliant performances. Canadians David Hearn and Graham DeLaet are preparing for the Deutsche Bank Championship near Boston this week after climbing up the FedEx Cup points list. Hearn started last week 108th while DeLaet was two spots better. Only the top 100 moved on to the second stage, meaning they had some work to do. And work they did. Hearn finished up in 68th spot after a tie for 10th while DeLaet was tied for fifth and now sits in 44th position. It was the latters final round which caught a lot of attention, a 65 on a brutally tough Bethpage Black course, the best of the day. "It was just one of those days," said DeLaet. "They dont come around too often so you appreciate them when they happen." After starting slowly with two bogeys, the Weyburn, Sask., native went on a tear, going eight under on his next 14 holes to log the low round of the day. "Before you know it, I lost track of how many under I was," he said. "It was an awesome day." The payday for his week was $281,000, which pushed him over $1 million in earnings for the first time in his career. "Its kind of neat," he stated. "I still kind of pinch myself. I remember the days on the Canadian Tour when I had a really good year and earned $96,000." DeLaet is in good position to make it through this week where the low 70 move on. Hed love to advance even farther and possibly get to the Tour Championship. Hes of the mind that theres always something to play for including getting into the top 70 which earns him spots in all the invitational events next season, or the top 50 in the world ranking which getss him into the World Golf Championship events (he moved to No. Ray Rice Game Jersey. 155 this week), or even making the Presidents Cup team. Thats something DeLaet has thought about even if he considers it "far-fetched" at the moment (hes currently 43rd on the International team points list). Hearn also enjoyed a steady week at the Barclays that was keyed by his driver. "I havent felt like Ive been driving it very well lately but something clicked last week," he stated. It was good timing. Bethpage was long and featured punishing rough. Hearn was second in driving accuracy for the week. His putting was also solid. While other players seemed to struggle with the speed of the greens, Hearn was T-6 in the Strokes Gained category. Of course his final-round pairing garnered him some attention; Hearn played alongside Tiger Woods, the first time hes done that in his career. "It was a good experience," he said. "If you want to be a great player, you have to get in those situations and experience it." He called Tiger a good guy to play with and despite the poor round the 14-time major winner was having, they chatted off and on throughout the day. Hearn also said the large galleries that come with Woods didnt prove to be too much of a problem for him. "It wasnt as bad as I thought it would be," he stated. "I think its better if theres 100 people moving rather than just one. Its sort of like white noise, but the volunteers did a good job of handling everyone." As with DeLaet, Hearn said his goal is to try and make the Tour Championship and then look at the rest of the season after that. No matter what happens from this point on however, both players have had impressive 2012 campaigns. ' ' '
