DMN - Crayton "Now we're contenders" - 6/04/08

[GimmeTheBall!]

My take on Patrick Crayton:

He is a possession receiver known for his hands who dropped the biggest pass of his life.

You see guys like Crayton all the time -- they talk a better game than they can physically produce. Bad teams have several Patrick Craytons on their roster and really good teams have very few if any.

Crayfish is like Reggie Swinton. A talker. Crayfish just isn't as talented as Swinton.

" who the hell is Patrick Crayton"? "HE sucks!"

Ditto.

That's the attitude this team has taken over the years. And it resulted in very little development of leadership.

I don't mind vocal players. If they back up their words on the field.
But Crayfish is just an average, highly paid player. That all. Not a leader. Not a first-tier player.
Being average should not entitle one to constantly mouth off like he's a T.O. or even a Santana Moss. Or even a Reggie Swinton.

Hey, Patrick Crayton became really obnoxious after he got married during the season.

Maybe she's part of the problem.

Mrs. Crayton: Cray, baby, did you tell the Media how it is? And what it is?
Patrick: Yeah, sweet mama.
Mrs. Crayton: And you told 'em when you make the Pro Bowl this year you won't be playing no games till you get your much-more monies?
Patrick: yeah, sweet mama.
Mrs. Crayton: Cause ah want that house in Tulsa like that witch who be married to that Carolina player.
Patrick: Ah tolt 'em.
Mrs. Crayton: Why you so quiet, Cray, baby?
Pattrick: Cause I am a man of few words, you know that sweet mama
Mrs. Crayton: Tell 'em, cause I want that house next year. And I want that condo like Jerry's wife has in pro . . . prah . . .
Patrick: Provence
Mrs. Crayton: Yeah, that Frenchie place.
Patrick: OK, gotta go to work now.
Mrs. Crayton: You tell 'em now! Tell 'em my Cray baby is the best.
Patrick: I will . . . .

Unfortunately my friend, we live in a world where everyone won't act the same.

This is a team made up of 53 players, different personalites, good guys bad guys, thugs, saints, mean people, nice people, the list goes on. Don't expect them all to be SAINTS and do things that we may do, this is a world full of different personalities.

Bottom line, the guy came to play last year, but a guy shows some mean-spiritness, he's now all of a sudden an a**. I want that guy on my team puffing his chest up intimidating the opposing players and putting fear into defenses, and even guys with marginal talent can rattle super stars.

The guy tough, comes to play, and when we all whined that we had no tough guys on the team a couple of years ago, well here's our answer starting with big tough Crayton.

Have a nice day!

That's a joke. The Giants don't fear Crayton.

He gets one on one coverage, that's fearing him?

He doesn't intimadate anyone, but rather he is laughed at by other teams because they know if he had to step up and be a #1 WR that his team would be in serious trouble.

Yet his mouth is big like a #1 WR.

Fearing big, bad Patrick Crayton...LOL.

Crayton???

Intimidating?
Fear-inducing?
Rattling?

Tony Romo intimidates defenses with his passing, scrambling and playmaking abilities.

Terrell Owens has been inducing fear in secondaries for the majority of his career.

Marion Barber rattles would be tacklers with punishing collisions.

Certainly, Patrick Crayton is a solid receiver, but me thinks he's being built up a bit too much. JMO.

Crayton needs to keep his fat yap shut.

Third-receiver talent - All-Pro mouth. Shut it until your play catches up.

No problem, I really never disliked any Cowboy. Maybe Neon Deion at first but then I grew indifferent towards him and T.O thing with the Star I will ultimately forgive him when he wins a SB and goes into the Hall a Cowboy. But this Crayton guy just grinds me the wrong way, he is an overachiever with a mouth... It just boggles my mind ..... That this guy has belles as big as he does..and then some guys on here to dare call him a leader ...No way ...You want to call him a great number 3 Wr ..ok I wont argue with you that's your opinion and your entitled to it ..but Leader :bang2:
