She might not be a Gold Digger. It could all be good. But any parent would be worried if their child got a girl pregnant if they only knew them for 3 months, doubly so if they had a career in the NFL. A parent might also tell their child before going into the NFL, to keep it in their pants and be careful, and warn them how it might cause unwanted media attention and such. Like I said, they guy made some valid points. Some people are seeing it as a direct attack, others see that he is saying in general its not good for an NFL player to have a child with someone doesn't fully know yet, and that there is a danger of the person being a gold digger, it could cause them and the people they work for unwanted distractions, etc. What's so wrong with that line of logic?
Dak is 30. Not a child. So let's scratch that portion of your comment.
We are nearly a quarter decade into the 21st century. People have kids
out of wedlock all the time. Athletes and movie stars are notorious for
this.

Some of us have friends that may require thick skin for you to tolerate
sometimes. A good buddy of Dak's has probably already jokingly said
nearly everything this guy said, only with a laugh and a pat on the back.
"You got caught, sucka...lol... she's fine though."

All of this is a non-story really but here we are. The world of sensitivity
and outrage and sound bites.

Never heard of the guy. But I guess it's true--no cure for stupidity.

If it is out in the public, then people have a right to share their opinion.
this was undignified and slanderous. His job is talking about the games. Not about Dr. Phil stuff. Maybe we should see how Mr. Carton likes it when we do a deep dive into is nefarious personal life? It works both ways. Hes a typical know it all blow hard that got too big for his britches and should never have that platform in the first place. Hès NYC gutter trash. How low of a human being are u when you attack an unborn kid and a mans Fiancée? That man needs taken off air and reprimanded.

Sure, I'm not saying any of that. Just saying if he just knew her for three month like some suggest, then that's not really enough time for him to know her, so he would have to worry about her being a gold digger still. It would be a different story if she had been a long term girlfriend and they had planned it. Not judging, just saying some valid points were made.
I mean they are about to be parents. Kind of passed the gold digging stage.

So you saying Dak should lose control and endanger his season by going to Jail for stomping some disrespectful media guy out? Having people like that write about you come with the territory of being a $40 million QB. That's why you should play it smart and be careful, which is basically this guys point. The unwanted attention during the season is videos like his, which people have a constitutional right to make.
No I’m not. I meant to add to thst post that Dak would never do it and rightfully so because he has millions on the line….me? I don’t lol. So no he shouldn’t do that or anyone for that matter I’m just saying that’s a level of disrespect that warrants some attention. Gold digger or not that’s my daughter’s mother.

This guy is a moron most people or sane people congratulated Dak and moved on. And this idiot said the first thing that came to his mind. He has a right to say what he wants. I been knew the guy was a drunk idiot and was shocked to see him get out of jail and get his radio gig back and now get a show…what privilege…..

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.
SAS and Bayless do not rant about players’ girlfriends or their intention to have children. Obviously you condone expressing opinions about such things. I moved to California in retirement to be closer to my grand kids. I was raised in Tomball. Finish your shift cleaning restrooms Buc-ee’s and go home to your parents’ house.

I don't condone it. All of those talk shows are garbage.
It's best to not give oxygen to them instead of being offended.
It's a schtick.
East coast people are more abrasive than the cupcakes on the west coast.
An insult to you is merely saying hello to us. Sorry to hurt your feelings.
I'll send you some crayons and a binky.

Dak shouldn't do anything physical, obviously. He isn't helpless in this situation though. The guy is a public figure using a broadcast platform to slander. That's grounds for a defamation of character suit. Sue the guy hard enough and often enough and he might be more careful about what he says. Why go that way? Cause physically stomping his butt will get you sued or jailed or both.

This guy is like that backup band nerd guy, who somehow made it to the NFL, but was a really bad QB.. He sucks Screamin' A's bum all of the time. Orlovski or whatever..

So you'd fight a guy and risk going to jail and likely losing your means to provide and be there for your child because of drunken words he said about your girlfriend. Smart.

As I said above Dak would never and should never. As far as a defamation suit…..I’m not sure if it has legs. Just was disrespectful. I get he’s the Cowboys QB just not sure why that has to come with disrespect to the mother of his child they are typically off limits.

I draw lines with disrespect and freedom for public cursing... the start point to dominate with. If a discussion leads to that left jab, I don't waste a second on countering and delivering. I had to once box for my squadron in the unlimited category, just because I was a linebacker. A 1-1-1 record in intramurals. I was out pointed in my loss.
Surely you win the CZ award for most self promotion pats on the back in one reply. VERY CLEVER!

There are actually many mags and TV shows that do this very thing to famous people. For like...EVER.

I'm not saying it's right or wrong. I will say that I don;t pay any attention to TMZ or the rack at the grocery checkout. Other than a chuckle now and then.

The continuous baby-sitting of Dak is almost reaching the same level of insanity as his unwarranted critics.
