Dez Bryant doesn't show up at Valley Ranch

April, 29, 2011

By Calvin Watkins
IRVING -- Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant didn't show up at Valley Ranch on Friday despite telling team owner Jerry Jones he would do so.

In a brief conversation before walking into the Cowboys' War Room, Jones confirmed he didn't speak with Bryant. The Cowboys were hoping to visit with Bryant to discuss some of his off-the-field issues and to check on his surgically repaired ankle, which he broke on Dec. 5.

Well that's disappointing. Galloway and Mosley were talking a couple days ago about how Dez has been playing full-court basketball at a 24 Hour Fitness in town, and the team trainers weren't too happy about that.

They didn't interrupt draft coverage for this breaking news?

Well... Dez wasn't contractually obligated to meet Jerry just because Jerry wanted him too... He was probably busy harassing mall cops.

He couldn't get away from the grill at his second job. Got bling to pay off, ya know?

Today wasn't mandatory, was it? I'll be concerned if he misses an OTA or something. This could've been an "excused absense" for all we know.

Cowboyszone meltdown in three....two....

When the owner asks to speak with you, it's mandatory.

That request expired about 15 minutes ago

Now the team can wait... and hope this kid doesn't tear up a knee playing basketball or do something else silly and get suspended.

Love the lockout :bang2:

I imagine he wanted to meet with him when Tony, Witten, etc. were all there this morning.

Bull

Theres only one explanation. Its Tony's fault. Obviously the lunch meeting didnt work. Can we still draft Ryan Mallett?

 

[jterrell]

I am sure he did but now he can't meet with him until we get more legal rulings. Romo met with him the day or so before for lunch.

This kid clearly needs to be managed, us having a lockout is not good with a guy that needs to be sat on. He isn't malicious but he finds trouble and nonsense.

I followed Dez on Twitter and from *****ing about having to pay a hundred for a tank of gas to talking street ebonics like a 12 year old, I un-followed his ***. He will be gone sooner rather than later.

BTW..Romo was at the Ranch along with most other "real" players. Dez was at the Mall buying some more shoes.:storm:

Hope that this isn't this start of having problems with Dez.
