Dez had a verbal altercation at nightclub......that is all.....no charges.......Dez paid his bill.....again....nothing there........and as of right now we don't know what happened with Dez Mom

Keep on hating tho......

I suppos you hated Romo to....for all that drama with the girls he dated.....the famous mini vacation before playoffs...etc......did he put his Drama over the good of the team?

I bet your life is so perfect.....I really hope it is brother....

Get back to me when Romo has run-ins with the pohlese.:rolleyes:

I was actually shocked to read it and never thought stuff like this would creep up. He actually seems like he is going in the right direction. I still don't know what to make of this whole situation but the facts all lean toward his direction of not being such a bad guy.

I hope he gets it together because, frankly, I think the entire team's success is entirely predicated on Dez Bryant.

That's what gets me doubly irked about this. We've got our success wagon hitched to this trainwreck.

The debate as to whether he's worth the baggage takes place before he's drafted. The red flag were there, and everyone should have gone into it with eyes wide open given his background. You don't draft him unless you're prepared to deal with bumps in the road. It's not a huge shock he woudn't handle his money wisely when he's basically lived homeless his entire life. It's not a huge shock his nightmare of a mother would be a constant source of chaos/drama once Dez brought money into the family dynamics equation. This baggage was the price of getting an elite talent at the end of the 1st round. If you don't have the stomach for it, pass on him and take a lesser talent like Arrelious Benn or Jered Odrick or Dan Williams with that pick. Once you draft him you got to put on your big boy pants and be prepared for the good and the bad.


When he's committed some sort of felony or becomes some sort of greater menace to society, then that's another conversation. But at this point there is nothing good that can come to Dez the football player, Dez the human being or the Cowboys organization by releasing him for stuff that was entirely foreseeable and frankly rather benign. That's reality. The only ones who are naive about this are the ones who thought he could come from that background and go mistake free for the rest of his life simply because he put on the blue and silver, and are now dismayed to find out otherwise.

At this point, I don't need to know what happened. This didn't happen to Demarcus Ware. THAT would be a first, and a shock. This happened to Dez, and face it, not one of us is shocked. Deep down, we all knew this kind of stuff would creep up, and will again.

you don't need to know what happened? ok

It's not a huge shock his nightmare of a mother would continue to be a nightmare and a constant source of drama once one of her children found himself in a huge stack of money.

Much of that is spot on. Problem is, the success of this team is entirely dependent on this guy, and it seems he couldn't care less much of the time.

Why does Jerry continue to hitch our wagon to guys like this?

Someone has been smoking with Dez's mom.

I read here the success of this team entirely dependent on the OL :)

C'mon, man, give me some depth here. You know what I mean. It's constant with him.

Can you name a single off-field incident with anyone else on the roster the past two years? It's always this guy, whether it's a minor altercation in a bar or a lawsuit over jewelry or this. And he's the same guy that has shown himself to be lazy on the field and in team meetings, too.

It's not like he's a wired-up guy that can't turn it off after practice, a la Irvin or Ray Lewis. He's half a player and half a man, all the time.

It's football, so it's more than one thing. But if Dez isn't markedly better, this isn't going anywhere.

We don't have Laurent Robinson to fall back on anymore.

Reports are that he is constantly late to team meetings. As in, almost every time. Then he gets there and sleeps. Is that caring?
