Parsons: Enough. stop trashing my QB and team

[atlantacowboy]

I didn't mean to imply that social media was mandatory. Thank God it's not. I meant to say that any player should be allowed to opt out of interviews with the media. IMO, if a player wants to go the whole season without ever talking to the media, even if his team goes to the Super Bowl, he should be allowed to.

I agree. Personally , i don’t enjoy listening to them talk. Most are not articulate enough to give any real insights. They just repeat cliches and mumble.

 

[Momanpr100]

Yeah you did. Morons annoy me. Thanks for self identifying.

Irony

Yeah, they pretty much have to repeat cliches. If they let it all hang out on how they really feel, the league would come down on them. That happened when Richard Sherman said to Erin Andrews something like, "When you put a sorry-*** receiver against me like Crabtree, dat's the result you gon' get!" People didn't like him being truthful.

Lots of people say one thing for public consumption but think some thing totally different. Its called the real world. There is one way to silence the doubters though.

Call them "business decisions"

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Good, trash needs to be called out, like all the trash takes on here. Keep the same energy is all he's saying.

"Trash takes" = "people who don't agree with my opinion"

 

[Kwyn]

unruly, spoiled rotten, disrespectful, unappreciative, big-mouth children!

It appears he’s visited Cowboy Zone!

The irony is that it’s not criticism directed at him. He’s mostly defending teammates. These guys should have short memories and deaf ears to media critics. Brady just did an interesting interview. He said that he now understands the frustration of fans watching games on TV. He goes on to explain that there is far more information and game context available to fans during a game than players on the field. We can see all the errors bc of the vantage point of the cameras and replays. Players on the field can only see what’s in front of them and have no idea what’s going on somewhere else on the field. Fans do.

Deaf ears to media? The same Brady who takes anything said about him as motivation? Interesting you used him

 

[erod]

Oh good gawd.

Millenials and those after are so mentally soft.

Go watch the Beckham doc on Netflix and see what he had to put up with after getting a red card in the World Cup.

Go look at Danny White, Jackie Smith, Leon Lett, and a million others.

They shut up, pressed on, and overcame it in life.

It comes with the territory and the paycheck. Get over it.

What could we get for this guy?

That was an aside not an example of deaf ear to media. Keep working on the reading comprehension.

Using it and crying about it are quite different things.

Jackie's wife said that Jackie's life was awful after that drop. dang,

Opinions can be trash too. I don't come on here with takes and talk like I know more than the next. So if the shoe fits, you know the rest.

Fans and media love that kind of stuff . The NFL does not. Sherman was always a great interview bc he actually can talk football and sound intelligent. He’s got a network job now.

 

[PAPPYDOG]

Eh, dude gets softer by the week.

He is NO L. Taylor not even close.
Welcome to our Circus and don't forget to enjoy the ride!!!!!
Many of the lesser talents have had a blast in Big D!!!

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

I mean if you want to make it about Dak, go ahead. I am just an old fart who doesn't understand today's youth. This constant need for attention and validation. My dad would have told me to shut up and work harder. It's like Emmitt Smith's dad told him, "Son, show a little class," the father said. "Act like you've been there before."

You mean your dad wouldn't have tweeted for you to not express your microagressions at the team and to respect everyone's personal space?

Haha.....I'm not old (IMO) but I'm with you on this one.

cowboy zone prior to this comment " Micah is a lion he says things people should listen as he is the leader"
after the comment "Micah is a blabber mouth who cares what he says"

honestly i think Micah is an attention *****.Hes my favorite player after CeeDee but i dwish hed shut his trap. Some of his takes are outlandish especially after tha san fran loss

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Quit choking in big games and maybe people will stop talking.

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

It' a fair statement. Just talking on his podcast. He has to realize that the team that he plays for is the #1 story in sports essentially 24-7-365 so they'll take his soundbites and use them however they chose.
