News: PFT: Dez Bryant gives up his pet monkey

[xvendettax914]

When has that happened? Jason Witten is looked upon like he is a god on this board, but he only has 1 more touchdown than Dez Bryant for his career. That is with a 7 season head start. Quit downing Dez. I've seen Witten drop passes, tip passes to defenders for interceptions, get a zillion false starts, and miss blocks, but not one single bad word is EVER said about him...Yall really need to cut it...smh

It was a joke.

Yeah, I'm sure the broken foot had nothing to do with it. It was clearly the monkey.

On a completely unrelated note which has nothing at all to do with that post, I've noticed that when people end with 'just sayin' they typically posted something not worth saying at all. Which is clearly not the case here.

Yup, that monkey was bad luck. Good riddance.

I'm sure the broken foot had a lot to do with his issues last year but you don't catch footballs with your feet. It takes good hands which we all know he has and concentration, which we all know he had in 2014.
All I want is all players to be focused. Not on their exotic pets, their (jealous) girl friends, their legal troubles, their bad habits. These things tend to drag a player/team down when publicized.
Just sa...nevermind.

Dallas announced this yesterday on his Twitter

Animal rights group needs to chill. that monkey never had it so good!!

What does it means? Enlighten us.

Have you ever read Of Mice and Men? Dez is George and Dallas is Lenny.

What are the chance those same animal rights groups give Bryant the credit he deserves for being and doing the responsible thing now?

Probably pretty good. That's their man focus. Animal rights.

Not that the monkey doesn't have it good. There's a certain level of behavioral care that goes into having this breed of monkey. They're not as easily domesticated as some would think.

Should have named the monkey "Skip Bayless".

Ha! I was going to suggest he named the monkey "Eli" or "Josh" (as in Josh Norman).

What's this world coming to?

Dez needs to be careful.... Sometimes monkeys don't like to be given away......

Same.

Just sayin'

 

[Etchyboy]

Did they get upset because he got caught spanking it?

 

[Rack]

I really don't care about his pet monkey but anything that will help Dez focus on football and only football is fine by me.

So having a pet takes away your focus on football?

All the cowboys players have to do is give up their pets and we'll be superbowl bound?

BTW owning the monkey was illegal.

Some types of monkeys are legal to own in Texas.

I think it was a local statute in DeSoto

Yeah probably. I would assume the big dangerous ones are illegal everywhere in the US. There's a good chance Dez's monkey is legal but I'm not sure.

One more day and we can talk about football instead of Dez's monkey.
