News: Schefter on Dez

[Mr Cowboy]

Dallas has tried to work with wide receiver Dez Bryant, Roc Nation has done the same, and there have been improvements. But Bryant has demonstrated a pattern of irresponsible behavior throughout his time in Dallas, being late to or flat out missing medical treatment or team meetings at least 20 and possibly as many as 40 times during his Cowboys career, according to sources familiar with the situation. As one Cowboys player remarked, "If you were hoping for him to come to a scheduled meeting, he may or may not be there; but if you need a first down on third and 14, throw it to Dez." One source said Bryant has been late or missed treatment on his foot injury that dates back to last season "at least 7 or 8 times this year alone" - and he has made strides over time. Bryant does not believe it to be a serious issue and the Cowboys publicly have supported him. In the end, it comes to this: Bryant isn't doing anything criminal, he's just being irresponsible.

"Sources" haha.
Are these the same sources that told him that Dez had a Walmart video?

So a source told him Dez was late 20 times in 7 hears...hmm.. Ive been late or took at least 2.5 sick days per year over the last 7 years also.

What a joke.

Actually if we need a catch in a big play, Dez is not the one I trust. It will most likely be dropped.

He talks a good talk about being for the team but he's selfish and immature. But many pro athletes are.

 

[Nav22]

Make plays on Sunday and I don't care.

I'm far more annoyed by his injuries, especially the ones that were avoidable (like his current one).

 

[LocimusPrime]

Cash money. Cash cash money baby

 

[erod]

He disappears in games, too.

Related?

From you

11 catches, 150 yards, 1 TD.

Enough said. We're paying top flight money for an above average receiver.

The old Dez was a baller. The after I got paid Dez? Not so much.

 

[mattjames2010]

Once again, tabloid fodder the casual Cowboys fans will eat up. *yawn*

Gotta love the media using "sources", just in general, and getting away with it. Somehow people buy into this crap.

We have a rookie QB, genius. One that has one completion over 20 yards. Dez is a big play receiver.

Context, try it. It's better than rambling like a child.

 

[JBS]

Yeah bc the whole world didn't already know this?

And there are people in here that are even questioning this....

Lolol...clowns

So true. Who cares about practice and medical treatment! As long as he knows his assignments, runs precise routes, and is healthy! As long as overall team cohesiveness and team discipline doesn't go to hell. As long as the Cowboys are winning super bowls...I'm not annoyed.

Oh...wait...
