Your agenda is showing. Dez could sit on the sideline and literally be praying to God and get bad coverage. Its all media. Did you not read the tweet from Bruce Irvin? he was talking to the officials, no one else.

Doesn't fit the agenda.

I'm a little tired of Dez Bryant's act. He's the kind of guy who sulks and pouts during times of adversity.

Tremendous talent but he lacks between the ears to ever truly reach his potential.

full potential?
he had 16 TDs last year. what's his full potential, 2000 yards and 20 TDs?
I don't see him sulking and pouting much at all. but buy into the media crap, sure.

If I were Dez, I'd have been going nuts re: the misrepresentation of how he reacted to a serious injury to another player, too.

I don't think trying to link his anger over that incident to his performance is very legitimate, either. But whatever, the media sucks and this is what happens during a long losing streak. Part of what he gets the big money for is to deal with this garbage. And with the fans of the team who get sucked by it every time it comes out.

Neither Dez's "defiance" nor the Cowboys' "QB situation" are in the same league of profanity as the media that tries to create this BS. The media are the very definition of profanity.

It's pretty gross to twist what somebody said like that in the first place. If I were a player, I'd probably have my lawyer involved, if for no other reason than to make the guy's life uncomfortable for a few months.

Spinning that into another article about things unraveling with the Cowboys isn't a whole lot better in my book, but that's pretty much par for the course. In reality, I'm starting to get surprised that we're not seeing more actual stories about the frustration taking it's toll, after 5 straight losses. It must be because Romo's coming back, because so far, the team has hung together really well. Even with vets losing jobs and with distractions like the Hardy and Randle stuff going on. We seem to be keeping it together fairly well so far.

Some of these writers have absolutely no scruples. I used to read every Cowboy-related article I could find. Not any more. There's only a couple that I bother with (guys like
Sturm...I appreciate his knowledge and the effort he puts into his articles). The rest, are just TMZ-type garbage that I don't waste my time with and, more importantly, don't give them the "clicks" they're seeking.

if you keep your composure and your mouth shut things usually work out lots better for you dez is going to have to learn that the hard way.

Dez needs to keep being who he is and not who you want him to be. Until you walk 1 mile in his shoes people need to keep their judgemental holier than thou conclusions on bcc.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Hey, I would love to be wrong, man. And you can check my posting history, I'm as optimistic as they come. I just think that it's too tough of a hole to expect perfection from Romo's return through the end of the season AND simultaneously expect our division rivals to poop themselves.
