Micah calls out refs on the eve of our big game

[America's Cowboy]

Yes, Goodell and his posse will listen to a pouty, inarticulate guy who is convinced the refs took away his superpowers.

Awww, Paco is not happy with Micah? Well, go watch another team!!!

 

[America's Cowboy]

Tom Brady had been doing it for years , giving earful to them in the games ,without getting flagged.

Correct! Yet, these Micah bashers just guzzle up anything Tom Brady does!!!

Fake fans!

 

[Blackrain]

He’s fun to watch play football but not someone you’d want to bring to the spelling B championship!

I'm going to say there's no word that you could spell in any championship that would outdo sacking Tom Brady in a playoff game.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Bad timing is all, we need all the help we can muster at this point.
Just play the game MP and keep your feels intact.

Nope. Sorry, bro. I disagree. Right now is the perfect time for Micah to call out the officials. Micah needs to flop a couple of times and seriously put the pressure on the game officials to either throw the flag or look to be biased.

I don't think he should be publicly hosing the officials.. but I reckon Micah is at the end of the worst 'non calls' in the league.. dude legit gets pancaked every game and no call.. Oppo oline now just take the piss knowing they won't get called.. footage from the Jags game I think.. and Parsons literally in a head lock with the ref staring straight at it.. no flag.

Meanwhile.. slightest jersey tug on the sideline for a near uncatchable ball... PI Defence. It is legit insane.

 

[America's Cowboy]

Yeah these people are weird. More mad at PArsons for calling them out then the actual refs. Just weird.

Fake fans.

Get me a meeting with him and his parents and I will.

I tell my own kids to stay off social media and NEVER say or show a picture that is for the world to see. Reality is IMO MP is letting his words define him and not his play.

Everyone compared MP to LT last year. LT was a cocaine sniffing ***** monger who at least let his play speak for himself. Same can't be said of MP. Perhaps the owner of the Cowboys is rubbing off on MP.

By the way, I'm staying in my lane, thank you...

interesting that you encourage people not to have the courage of their convictions or speak their mind on social media. And do it on a message board. I'm not sure how not speaking up makes the world a better place.

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Someone needs to explain to me how MP speaking out about the non calls will hinder him when not speaking out has resulted in non calls. I think too many on this board are too quick to jump in and take a negative slant on anything a Dallas Cowboy employee says or does. The lack of support is just sad. I understand we cant be sheep and blindly follow or agree with everything they do. But sometimes you stand behind your team because...well it is your team. Or what is the point? MP is perfectly entitled to speak his mind. Some here disagree with his choice. Maybe those people should follow their own advice and say nothing too.

Does Brady do it publicly?
Does Micah have the same "street cred" Brady does?

Speaking up for things of value, one thing.
He's complaining about penalty that don't go your way in a game, another.
Let's consider context, please.

Winners win.

Losers blame the refs.

Lol. Never saw the 1972 Olympic Gold Medal basketball game between USSR & the US, did ya?

If the player or his “street cred” matters at all .. then it is proof there is corruption in officiating.

Y’all listen to yourselves and what you’ve sold

 

[LysleE]

This team is so immature. While I agree that Dallas seems to get more than their fair share of calls, they have a reputation of being undisciplined and prone to penalties, so maybe they are under more scrutiny by the referees.
I’ve seen Micah get held plenty of times with no penalty called, but calling out referees on social media is not going to gain any favor with the officiating crew. D. Ware got held all the time but I don’t remember him calling out anybody on social media.

Generally I've found people who speak their convictions on social media on average to be nut jobs.

You have convictions? Live your life accordingly to those convictions, don't preach to other people on Social Media.

Hard to believe, but I don't consider this message board social media.

End of the day, MP seems to be doing a lot of talking. Just saying...

Not talking about corruption, just human nature.
Some people get more leeway on subject matters than others.
It is what it is. And there's no way you can prove it.

Over

+10

 

[plymkr]

Can someone demand Micah stop tweeting? He has become the Twitter MVP. He may not get one call this playoffs with that mess he tweeting.

Exactly, take his phone away until the season is over. He's not helping

 

[plasticman]

What he is saying is true.

What he is saying is not permitted by the league. Hopefully he will only be fined.

Sorry to see the culture seeping through... victim, not fair, etc.

This is the HC's job. We are at a disadvantage because this owner has neutered our HC and EVERYONE, including the refs know it. If anything, like someone in the thread said earlier, chat it up with the ref before the game and point out a couple players.

Micah is frustrated and rather than work on his game or maybe talk to Quinn about maybe doing something different, he's succumbed to the current Cowboy Way. Maybe next year a little older and in the off season one of the other premier pass rushers of the past I've seen him engage with - Ware, Miller, Haley - can bend his ear and let him know that's not the way to go. Keep the focus on yourself and let your performance MAKE them make the call.

But its so hard to escape the culture...

Dumb for Parsons to tweet this out, but also stupid for a rule not allowing criticism of officials.
