Before owning NFL's Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones led champion Arkansas Razorbacks as 'plow horse' lineman | Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Jerry Jones, owner of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, was a starting offensive lineman for the 1964 Arkansas Razorbacks, who went 11-0 and were named national champions by the Football Writers Association of America. Jones graduated from the University of Arkansas in 1965 with a business degree and earned a master's in 1970. He sold insurance during college and later found success in oil and gas. In 1989, he bought the Cowboys for over $160 million, turning around a team losing $1 million per month. The franchise has won three Super Bowls under his leadership and is valued at $13 billion.

CVS sues Tennessee over PBM law
CVS Health has filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Tennessee's recently passed Freedom, Access and Integrity in Registered Pharmacy Act, also known as the Fair Rx Act. The complaint, filed May 22 in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, alleges the bill unconstitutionally favors in-state businesses over out-of-state competitors, conflicts with federal rules governing employer health plans and Medicare, and that forcing the company to close or sell its Tennessee pharmacies amounts to a taking of property without compensation.
