It's an obvious and needless distraction during the season. It shows he's not 100% focused on becoming a champion.

Please don't appeal to "athletes are allowed to have a life", as yes, we all know that. But there are actions and mindsets required to become a champion and they must be adhered to in order to make that happen.

If all you want is to be a celebrity then go ahead and focus on golf, Cabo, podcasts, and all that other noise, but don't expect to hoist a Lombardi.
Someone should tell Travis Kelce that.

What makes you think it's a distraction?... or at least, what makes you think it's a bad distraction, as opposed to a welcome one? Did Micah show up to practice fat? Did he get sacks, pressures, and draw double and triple teams?

It's only a "distraction" to people want something to complain about.
Yeah he's always tired

Media is a distraction...always has been. Can you imagine what a focused Parsons might do? Hell....he might actually have time to hit the weight room...might be even in shape to finish a game in the 4th quarter.

Just saying....In this case...D-Ware is right.

:popcorn:
Post of your life lol

You guys are either 1) too old to understand the current NFL player. Or 2) too old to realize we multi-task nowadays more efficiently than at any time in history. Or 3) to naive to know that doing a podcast once a week is noblesse a distraction than going to the movies.

And no, I’m not a spring chicken.

And yet Travis Kelce dates the most famous woman on earth and does a podcast all season long and just keeps on winning super bowls….
It’s because it doesn’t matter. People make way too much of it.

Do you want to know why the Cowboys don’t win super bowls? Because the GM is garbage and they haven’t signed a major free agent in over a decade.

.....contrary to what you might believe.......KC has won prior, still has better talent to overcome such and executes far better than we do....and it's not solely on the TE & just the QB. Let's win something first.

Let’s discuss a parallel account.

Luka is a top-500 ranked player in the world, out of millions, in a video game called Overwatch. He has probably sunk thousands of hours into that video game. He plays more Overwatch than Micah podcasts, especially during the season.

Do you think playing Overwatch is impacting Luka’s performance on the court?

As a 60 year old man, I can say it has less to do with age, and more to do with what they want to complain about. Don't like someone? Just make up a reason for it.

Oh, so then we shouldn't expect Micah to be the only one making plays?

Yep...maybe Parsons will follow the money and go win a SB elsewhere. He should ask Water about that on his Podcast.
He wouldn't last 10 minutes with Ware and be learning for the next 5 seasons!

Well i guess Ware is not joining then
Thinking the same thing.......he just killed any chance he had as a Cowboy coach. There's no way in hell Jerry hiring him now.
BTW .....if I remember correctly, Dware offered to join the coaching staff a few years ago but they weren't interested.
