Twitter: Dez goes off on reporters in lockerroom after practice

[casmith07]

That's odd. I don't agree with everything JJT writes, but I've never known him to be unprofessional.

Lol lol lol lol

You can believe in the tooth fairy for all I care, what you're saying isn't true and you're just trying to find a reason to place blame on someone else besides Dez.

Whatever dude.

I'm sick of these clowns making Dez to be a bad guy.

Go ahead and defend them. They're a joke.

Were you there? No you weren't. I'll take Dez's word over yours. What difference does it make if he's black? You don't say that to someone's face in the locker room in front of anybody. That's just disrespectful.

Except it appears Dez never heard it either. Street did, no one else did. Bryant came to Street's defense (and we know Dez was already set off by JJT earlier in the week).

I'm sure this kind of thing happens in the Patriots locker room all the time. Nothing to see here.

Dez just tweeted the text he got that made him mad. Can't post it here.

Yeah, this is getting more childish by the second.

The reality is, Dez did go off on a couple reporters. Didn't like what they'd written/tweeted. It lasted a good 15 minutes, at least. (cont)
I couldn't hear what either reporter was saying, because they weren't bringing the volume the way Dez did. But he clearly wasn't happy.
Devin Street came to Dez's defense, in the altercation w/ Jacque Taylor, which escalated the matter further.
Several of the #Cowboys players found the entire ordeal hilarious, one even joking "I wish I could snapchat this".
The problem for Dez is, by blowing up like this, he's taking a group of media that he thinks are against him, and exacerbating that (cont).
The media isn't trying to do Dez wrong. The media is reporting on a 2-6 football team, that has lost six games in a row.
Sure, Romo's absence plays a MAJOR role in those 6 straight losses. But they've lost several close games they had a chance at...

Mike Leslie toeing the media line like a professional hack.

So even if that is the case you think Devin Street is gonna lie to Dez and get him all riled up for nothing? I don't buy it.

What does that mean Cas?

Nobody is making Dez out to be a bad guy, he does it all on his own. Dez is a fantastic football player, but he has the intelligence of a 9 year old.

I also don't buy that JJT would call someone an n word either. And if he did, in that setting, more than one person would have heard it. I suspect Street simply misheard and Dez being unable to critically think about this situation, went off because he's already got bug up his *** about JJT ripping him last week after the Seattle game.

They've been doing this the day Dez entered the league. They've been trying to paint Dez to be a thug the minute he stepped into this league and its sad.

For standing up for what's right? For taking a stand against another member of the media using a racial slur against a Cowboys player? Yeah what a terrible person smh.

Because Dez hasn't overreacted before here, eh? He's hypersensitive. He's got the maturity of a small child.

Where's proof of this? That he's a bad guy or he has the intelligence of a 9 year old?

After everything the media has put Dez thru in the past year or so you have a lot of nerve calling him out. Id love to come to your job before your about to get a huge promotion and make up a video that costs you your job and promotion when said video doesn't even exist. Then ill make a video saying you said something you didn't and plaster it on twitter, then ill call you the N word. Wonder how you would feel. People seem to forget, they may be athletes but these are HUMAN BEINGS, they can only handle so much,.

You haven't over-reacted? You said Tyron Smith should move to right tackle earlier. Move on

 

[StarBoyz83]

I can't wait for this season to be over

It's been over

Yeah I guess only children should be upset with someone calling someone in the locker room a racial slur.

 

[Sydla]

Again, if JJT said what he said, in the locker room, wouldn't have more than one person heard it?

My guess is Street misheard something, said something to Dez, Dez being the emotional midget he can be with his tirades went crazy because he's been dying to tear into JJT anyway.

Whether the media has treated him unfairly or not, Dez has to learn to control himself in these settings. He's basically giving the media more fuel. Want to stop having the media trash his behavior? Stop giving them reasons to trash his behavior.

One more incident that Garrett will likely have to address with another team leader.
