I never heard much about Leigh Steinberg after he lost Troy Aikman to Jerry Maguire in 1996.

Reminds me of the guy from the Marcus Dupree story.

What ever happened to Lee Steinberg? :huh:

The show "Real Sports" on HBO had a segment on him. He is broke and his life was in the gutter. He is trying to get his life on track.

Never understood why Deion distanced himself from Dez.
Deion bought him dinner and basically cut short his college career in the process.
Deion is not without some off the studio problems either.

On the other hand...maybe Deion would be a great advisor on how to handle a crazy woman?

So he gets Deion's agent? I wonder if him and Deion are cool now?

As of about 2 weeks ago, I watched a segment on the NFL.com with the NFLN guys, and Deion refused to even acknowledge anything about Dez or say his name. Seems kinda weird if they're supposedly cool now. :confused:

They squashed it.....last i heard.

Maybe since they were once cool, had a major falling out, then deion ponied up and called him, maybe he does not want to comment on anything negative regarding dez.

Since they have history, and are cool now.

Also, deion does not want to challenge anybody about their personal life anyways, since reports hit, that he went floyd mayweather on his wife.

IIRC, Steinburg is flat broke and out of the business. I'm almost positive of this but I could be wrong. I could swear that I saw it on a t.v. interview.

Dez Bryant has fired Drew Rosenhaus as his agent. After the mandatory 5-day waiting period, he is expected to hire Eugene Parker.

I think this is good. Rosenhaus is the agent of knuckleheads like TO, and Dez needs to distance from that scene as much as possible.

Grab your life by the horns, Dez. If you want to play football for a long time, you're going to have to make some tough decisions about people.

More Dez drama. Git used to it.

Wow! I thought he was a power agent.

Broke? :eek:

I wonder what happened?

Thanks for the update.

JJ's public dressing down + firing the most hated agent in football for a quality agent + potentially dropped charges = No Suspension ...I hope

Booze played a large part of it. He was really chugging the hell out of the stuff for a while.

Because Dez apparently no showed at a function Deion was running for kids.

At least that's the story I read.

I believe it was something like that.
I think Dez had a reputation for no shows, or being very late for events / interviews at the time.

I heard Deion got pissed because Dez pissed off Under Armor because he wouldn't wear their cleats and Deion supposedly set up that sponsorship.

I remember reading that too. Maybe it was multiple reasons that led to it.

I'm not even sticking up for Deion. I'm just saying what supposedly caused the rift between the two.
