Whole lotta uppity high horse members here... wow!
Not a fan of this dude....but.
He's doing his schtick here. Like everyone else.
All of those clips you share of loud mouth opinionated TV personalities
are no different. They all have their brand.

Plus, it's just too easy.
Dak dates this girl for 3 months...MONTHS!
Now he's a baby-daddy. Dude ***** up...lol.

We all either know one, or we are one...lol.
I think it's funny.
No. It’s not funny. No one can accurately speak to Dak’s personal life as if they are aware. He’s on as I’m waking up (California), he is the same everyday. I didn't see these comments as I don’t watch him anymore. There is a time to say “no more”.

I looked him up and Carton did time in prison for carrying out a multimillion dollar fake ticket scam. What a loser! He shouldn’t be calling someone a Golddigger when he was scamming people out of millions of dollars.
Still wouldn't poison the well and say that any point he may make is automatically invalid because of what he is guilty himself. And I didn't take it per say that he was calling Dak's girlfriend a Gold digger, but generalizing that NFL players do have to worry about gold diggers when they get someone pregnant that they are not married to, so they should be careful.

My question is why the hell does anyone care what Prescott does in his personal life? As long as he’s not committing crimes or whatever.

It looks like he and his GF wanted a kid, and they’re happy. Why are people trying to find something to hate about that? Are their hearts filled with that much hatred?

Nothing really wrong with that but he said the mother of his child might be a gold digger. That’s crossing a line.
Well if like someone says, that they were together only for three months, then that may still be a valid point. If that time is accurate, well, how well do you know someone in three months? I don't hold what someone says against them, if there is some truth in it.

He was making the point about the timing of having the child. And he didn't actually say the girlfriend was a gold digger, but that is one of the things players have to worry about if they have a child with an unwed mother. It's a valid point.
He questioned if she is a gold digger, what else do you need to hear? This is not your classic athlete/movie star being accused of abuse, etc, this is about having a child..

People held Tony Romo going to Cabo with his GF against him. The main issue in this case is timing if any and playing it smart.

Lol at some of the people here being anyone else’s moral compass. A woman getting pregnant by an athlete doesn’t make them a gold digger just because it falls within a certain time frame- who is to decide what’s too soon anyways and how does anyone here know how long those 2 have known each other?

Some of you sound like cavemen and the others lol at the holier than thou routine…let them live their life

Hot sports opinions....

But he did sound like he had been drinking and some of his movements appear to be common around story tellers at bars. Slow erratic hand gestures that get a little too close.

Why do the motives of Dak's girlfriend mean so much to this guy? Who is he to question her? Or Dak? Or anything or anyone related to either of them?

Look, she might be a Golddigger, but you shouldn’t say that to viewers. Especially not when you’ve served time in prison for scamming people out of millions of dollars. He was after money. lol

The guy has a right to his opinion if he is a journalist. Don't see anything necessarily not valid about the points he was making. That is not to say that Dak hasn't done some good things off the field. But I don't see anything untrue about an unwanted distraction during the season.
Cmon man. Re-read what you just typed and have some shame.

It has to do with how you interpret what he is saying. Some see it as a direct attack. But others can hear what he saying is that it is not smart for an NFL Player to have a child with someone he has not had a long relationship with and have to worry about having the child maybe during the season and all the media attention it might generate. Nothing wrong with a bit of planned parenthood instead of just having it happen. If the NFL Player is smart, they can have a child and there is not much the media could do to criticize them. Who care when it is announced for example that someone is having a baby with their long time girlfriend, and the arrival date is in the offseason? that story is a bit different than for example an NFL player having a kid with someone they just new for a couple of months and the kid is expected in season. If a player is smart about his business, then usually you have a non-story.

I just did take it personally as him calling her a gold digger but moreso as him saying, if you in that kind of situation as Dak is in, you have to worry about that. As for him serving time in prison, that doesn't mean he can't make a valid point.

Sorry, have no problems with what I said either. I mean if you are a parent, and you have a child going into the NFL, wouldn't you be telling him some of those common sense things? I mean, if it is some values you might tell you own kid, then are those invalid points? Like I said, If there is some validity in what someone says, I can't fault them for making points.

If I went to prison for fraud I wouldn’t be talking about anyone being a Golddigger. In both cases you’re misleading someone to get money.

No. It’s not funny. No one can accurately speak to Dak’s personal life as if they are aware. He’s on as I’m waking up (California), he is the same everyday. I didn't see these comments as I don’t watch him anymore. There is a time to say “no more”.
All I read was California. Of course you're upset.
No more what? Discussion? Opinions?
Who decides?...lol/smh

Dude, it's no different than SAS screaming on TV.
Skip Bayless mouthing off on TV. They are all opinion shows.
I bet you watch "something" that is in the same genre.
Heck, you're on a message board which is no less than an
close relative of Talk TV Sports.
