Can you imagine Sean Lee doing the things DB has done?

Stop defending poor behavior, .. he is still a child in many ways.

It is what it is.

i think the point is that not all and possibly most 23 year olds have moments of immaturity. no excuse for dez because we definitely want more as a fan base but he has his moments and they are magnified by the media (dallas' in particular) unlike any other 23 year olds who have less means to get into trouble.

sean lean is btw is 26.

at 23 i had a full time job and was helping my parents pay the mortgage. i had a $100k sports car and was very reckless with it. it happens. Doesn't mean i can't relate to db and sympathize that some of the stuff he's been called out for is overblown by the media. yes other things are head scratchers too.

BREAKING NEWS: Jerry announced that Dez will lose his flex day that allowed him to play video games past midnight. Dez has vowed to never speed again.

SL is a mature young man, .. DB not so much.

Don't get me wrong, I am a DB fan. He is a great athlete. But I am tired of him not knowing where to go on pass routes, and all of the other foolishness that follows him around.

Grow up son, .. figure it out.

Maybe he was running from the sag-pants police. My point is you don't know what he was dealing with.

C'mon. How many of you noticed that? lol



It's time for fans to stop hating and come to the
realization that Romo is a great QB. It's time to stop
with the ignorant cliches, and realize that using a
"botched FG" as an excuse to equate that mistake to
Romo's QBing abilities. - D29Murray

The term "wreckless" is an oxymoron. That's bothered me since a kid. LOL.

Cracks me up how everyone takes some random post on a msg board about the supposed driving habits of a player as gospel. If it even happened at all.

You compared two people, yourself and Sean Lee, who had privileged upbringings to someone who did not. Take some individuals outside of the NFL who had it anything close to Dez and see where they ended up, no one is saying the man is without flaw but he has certainly done well for himself.

Privileged??

I didn't get to go to college for free !
I didn't get to go to college at all, ... I graduated from a 2 yr Technical school. I've had to make that work.

I didn't have anybody helping me through school like these athletes do.

I'm not making millions of dollars.

Privileged??

He is a college graduate and is now in the professional arena. Stop defending his childish behavior.

BTW, my post was in response to the one about him tweeting all about his Madden accomplishments, ... meanwhile he does not know the playbook that his employer pays him to know.

I said he acts like a child in many ways, .. I stand by that.
