IRVING, Texas (AP) - Terrell Owens has finally pushed the Dallas Cowboys too far, drawing a $9,500 US fine for missing a team meeting and a rehabilitation session and being late to an offensive meeting, The Dallas Morning News reported Sunday.

''That's our club business. That's going to be accounted for,'' team owner Jerry Jones told the newspaper.

The incidents occurred Friday, the team's final day preparing for a pre-season game against San Francisco. The Cowboys beat the 49ers 17-7, making them 3-0 this pre-season without Owens playing any of the games because of a hamstring injury that's also kept him out of 19 of 31 practices since the start of training camp.

Neither team officials nor Owens' agent, Drew Rosenhaus, immediately returned calls to The Associated Press seeking comment Sunday.

During a post-game television interview, Jones did not mention the fine but answered several other questions about Owens. Jones said his only concern with the receiver is ''injury, not all this other stuff you hear about.''
