I don't really see what the big deal is. If you mess up in life and you want a 100 million dollar contract to do something, I would expect any employer to be very wary on how you are going to handle that money. Dez is a young man with a really messed up childhood. Has he matured? I believe he has, but would I bet 100 million dollars that he has, that I don't know.

There is a video out that has been known for a long time featuring Dez's mother (regardless of how long ago it was). Based on that video alone I would have questions, throw in all the other garbage that has happened, there are tons of red flags.

Dez is a fantastic player, but in the NFL you have to have the maturity to handle your money and fame. Thus far Dez has not shown the ability.

I have no problem with the Cowboys releasing any information on Dez. If it was just one thing like sagging your pants at the mall I would be more sympathetic, but it is the totality of the actions you have to take into consideration.

If the Cowboys do franchise Dez and he is angry about it too bad. If he is angry enough to try and ruin the team then I would not ever want him on my team (if I were the Cowboys). And it would show that he wasn't mature enough to handle the NFL and everything that comes with it.

Stephen A Smith made a good point that none of this blew up when the Cowboys were in the playoffs but only when it's time to pay Dez. That said I don't think Jerry would drag his superstar through the mud like that.

Not really. Schefter stated he had been working on since September so you presume it could have gotten out any time during the season.

Question:Who started this story on Dez & a bombshell video? I suspect it was Rapport or Florio. If it proves to be false, I’d like to see reputable journalists rip those behind this story. Your take Bob?

Bob Sturm:I am all against poor journalism, but from the get-go, there has been massive amounts of leaks out of Valley Ranch on Dez for it to be made up by the Insiders of this league. The Cowboys, it seems, had an issue with the player and wanted the public to know what they were dealing with so they leak stuff out. This is pretty routine in sports, and again, as much as I would like to blame others for this, it surely appears this one was given to them by the organization. By the way, that very likely won’t ever allow for the franchise and the player to be great friends in the future.

As I said in another thread, Sturm condemns poor journalism and then practices it himself by throwing out a pretty damaging rumor himself, and one that also has really no evidence. ***.

Most people in the Philly area think the Eagles leaked the "Desean is in a gang" rumor to justify cutting him. We want to re-sign Dez. So it's totally different IMO.

It's amazing that there is no big enough Cowboy fan that could've gotten a hold of this "video" and "accidentally" deleted it like the surveillance video from the sports bar in Pittsburgh when Big Ben was in hot water. And you call yourselves fans?? Or would that be conspirators??;)

...maybe he was caught wearing his helmet and full pads on Black Friday.

Ok, enough about the video, why has no one talked about this part of the statement made by Terez Owens. I think this is much more important, because it could be true. Dez is very impressionable especially at this time with the video going out, if he has Roc Nation in his ear, convincing him this is the cowboys doing, we are in trouble. BIG TIME

I believe in that just as much as I believe in that bigfoot footage him and Florio and Schef tried cooking up.
How are they brainwashing him?
He already was surrounded by thugged out yes-men and (from what I hear) got rid of them...

No- this is more fear-mongering from the modern day Morton Downey Jr's.

I do not see Tom Condon, his ACTUAL contract negotiating agent, doing that. It was simply another completely silly claim of that entire silly saga.

Condon might not being doing that but RocNation is playing a part in this including the negotiations. I am leery of Jay Z influence on Dez and I'm also concerned Dez letting his emotions get the better of him. Watching the difference between how Murray is dealing with negotiations and how Dez is dealing with it does show some immaturity on the part of Dez

I don't care at all for Jerry but I am fairly confident he wouldn't do this to one of his players.

It's not his style & sends a horrible message to the others. He's the guy that usually has their back no matter what.

Why would anyone hitch their wagon to these lowlifes of society?

Considering everything Terez Owens has said is BS, why would this be any different?
