Calvin Watkins is a joke

[rockj7]

I live in San Jose Ca unfortunately Tony Bruno has a radio show that is broadcasted out here. Calvin Watkins is on his radio show just yukin it up with him on as he said the dysfunctional Dallas Cowboys. I am tired of these mediots thinking we are stupid, they need the Cowboys for papers to sell and TV shows to get ratings. I mean be serious the Arizona Cardinal and the Stealers are not going to get you any papers sold or get you high ratings. Not until Anthony Spencer has a Cowboy been arrested or done any harm to another human being but yet talking about the Cowboys is priority number. Sometimes it is just bull ****.

Well Pacman did punch his bodyguard while he was on the Cowboys so he did do some harm to another human being.

But I agree, and I believe all of us do. Everything with the Cowboys is blown up. Its life.

There was a report where it said the Giants fined Plaxico more times than he has played games for them, you heard of that for a couple days and it vanished, nothing else heard about it.
Now we get these reports about players being "dysfunctional" and it will be a hot topic for a week or two. Its the life of the Cowboys and its fans, get used to it.

You dont understand the whole story the bodyguard was in the way of him getting to the scrip club

lets just discredit any reporter that has a negative comment about the cowboys, I was aginst Ed when he came out with that story becausei felt it was not true but I feel Calvin is telling the truth because the game fottage doesnt lie. I have seen many games when T.O. was able to creat enough space so that the ball can be thrown to him now if he catches it thats a different story but he has been open enough to squeez it in and yet tony will force it to jason. i know jaosn is way more reliable and more like a safty net for tony but jason witten is not going to put as many tds on the board as T.O.

The cowboys are dysfunctional and stupid.

But feel free to shoot the messenger and get angry about Calvin :laugh2:

My complaint about Watkins is that I can't believe someone actually employs him as a professional writer of any kind. I would think by now an editor would have corrected him for his syntax and grammar, they are usually pretty bad.

And since Calvin is dysfunctional and stupid, it makes him the perfect reporter to cover this team.

I don't have a problem with Watkins' story. A little handshaking and backrubbing and he got some insiders to spill the beans. However, it certainly lends credence to the fact that he's trying to go national.

And instead of focusing on the football aspect of the team (ala Breer), he's going tabloid-style.

bingo.

and promoting himself on a tony bruno show speaks more to that.

I am not sure how many have listened to bruno, but well saying he hopes the cowboys plane would crash is about a tenth of how much he hates Dallas.

So watkins going on bruno's show with tabloid stuff is the exact recipe for bruno and promotes what watkins wants.

I watch watkins on with mike doocy and babe laufenberg here locally and he comes off as a guy who is incapable of writing about football, I am not sure he understands the game well enough. And I can tell you from listening to him he doesnt really care about the football stuff.

He doesn't come off as though he understands much of anything, if you ask me.

I wouldnt argue against that either!!!!!

then again, i never met too many intelligent jets fans!!!!!!

Sounds like our team last year

good point.

I thought Watkins was a Steelers' fan. Gonna look it up.

Edit: Yep, I was right.

Favorite team: Steelers
Favorite color: Blue
Favorite ice cream: Chocolate
Favorite movie: Don't have one. Every time The Departed comes on HBO, I watch it. White Men Can't Jump was on a few weeks ago and laughed out loud for the whole movie. 300 is great. Gladiator with my boy Russell Crowe is excellent. I Think I Love My Wife with Chris Rock has grown on me. I like it now.

Peace and love from Calvin

Yes folkls it's really just that simple.

That's what I remember also.

 

[seniorette]

With stories like all this trash coming from the Dallas press you can see why all of Tony's personal interviews come out of Racine Wis. You can also see why the Dallas press wants to bury a hatchet in Tony, because he won't talk to them. The press will print anything sensational about Dallas because the super bowl contenders are no shows in the "Circus" department. NO news.

Ewww.

that is strange. He is from ny and has said many times when on tv here that he is a jets fan. I remember him teasing laufenberg about Dallas should have signed favre instead of his jets.

Maybe he has two favorite teams!!!!!

You're spot on, as usual.

Aside from Watkins' nonsense, his talent as a reporter and writer is severely limited.
