I'll always be side-eyeing the media from now on because of how hard they tried to character assassinate dez bryant this season. Does he still have maturity issues and unprofessional moments? sure. But after hearing people like brian billick compare dez bryant to wife beater, road raging, selfish thug and then actually watching dez's sideline interactions confirms what a bunch of biased shitbags the lot of them are. (I even heard him claim that dez's idols are terrell owens and chad ochocinco on the dan patrick show). Where does an arrogant man like him get off making that claim about someone without ever having talked to him, or anyone around him?
Dez Bryant clearly cares about this team, and he definitely prioritizes winning and team success before bringing up anything about personal success. But if you listened to the steve beurlein, rich gannon, phil simms, tim hasselbeck, ron jaworski, skip baylesses of the world, they'd have you think he's an indiscriminate thug looking out for himself. (that's right, i'm compiling a hit list) And even if the cowboys come out to defend dez's character, nope....the pundits will have you believe that the organization is simply lying to cover its own ***.
