No, I didn't miss that. I don't care about the suspensions, in this conversation, you do.So, you've somehow missed that the Cowboys have also had a number of players that have been suspended and had a multitude of issues? Has any team had more, including Seattle?
In any case, Marshawn never served a suspension while playing for Pete Carroll - he was eligible to play the entire time he was in Seattle.
On the other hand, Joseph Randall has been arrested 7 times and has not been eligible to play the last 4 years, and Irving has only started 10 games over 4 years because of his problems and has indicated he will not play in the NFL as long as pot is a banned substance.
Irving will write a book next..isn't there a book called How to influence friends and win over your enemies? Something like that? … well, lets just say Irving didn't get his copy.
Without earning them also.David Irving had no issue taking the paychecks.
Who did he blame for his failures? Are you implying he blamed JG? I didnt hear that at all.
nah..at least I never take any player seriously. Its entertainment afterall.. What bothers me is the huge privilege it is to play a kids sport for the huge money they do, then they turn it into a tainted sport sort of...meaning they insert race and politics into it. That's where the player loses me as a fan. So when Irving played the race card on Garrett, most of us knew immediately that was bs. That's when you just ignore the guy from that point on. Nothing he says retains any cred,period.Hell, I don't blame David, it's fans and media taking anything he says seriously.
great article and post. well said.Former NFL quarterback Sage Rosenfels, who first met Garrett in their time together with the Miami Dolphins, hammered Irving's comments.
"I’ve known Jason Garret for 15 years," he said, via Twitter. "This statement may be the dumbest and least true that I’ve ever read about him."
Duke Manyweather, an offensive line scouting and development guru that has also worked with Garrett, wasn't nearly as kind.
"Naw! [Jason Garrett] is uncomfortable around grown children who can’t wake up on their own, get to places on time, be a professional, or take responsibility even with a support system!" he tweeted. "Few of those on that defensive line! JUST STOP! This is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard!"
In the end, Irving wanted special treatment while doing nothing special to receive it, and now takes issue with being told his time was up with the Cowboys. This is the same player who turned down some offers of assistance in his personal matters, as the club tried desperately to keep him focused and onboard. It's the same player who wanted to remain with Garrett-led Cowboys and told the world he'd be re-signed only days before realizing he truly wouldn't be, was then suspended by the NFL for missing mandatory drug tests, and then quit amid a currently active NFL domestic violence probe — but suddenly views it all as some sort of conspiracy masterfully orchestrated by a man whose job is in jeopardy if the team doesn't turn the corner on the field.
If anything, Garrett hoped Irving would help be a catalyst for success and helping to save his own hide. He wasn't, and with no contract extension on the table, there was no reason to continue the one-sided relationship. Say what you will about Garrett's production and/or lack thereof, but there is a laundry list of minority players who would run through a wall for him, at all levels of the roster and within the coaching staff.

No, I didn't miss that. I don't care about the suspensions, in this conversation, you do.
My point is that JG doesn't like guys who are different. He wouldn't like Marhsawn just as he didn't like Marty B.
Y’all hate the truth
Erroneous. There's zero to suggest JG wouldn't "like" players.No, I didn't miss that. I don't care about the suspensions, in this conversation, you do.
