Dallas Cowboys WR Dez Bryant uses Twitter to defend himself against Skip Bayless

Dez Bryant really wants to be clear that he never said he was going to record 2,000 receiving yards in a season. He simply said it was possible.

The Dallas Cowboys wide receiver has used Twitter the last two days to defend comments he made in a Tuesday article on ESPNDallas.com.
Bryant told the website that he could “potentially” be the first player to record 2,000-reciving yards in a single season, but added that stats don’t mean anything to him if the Cowboys are not “strapping up for the playoffs.”

ESPN’s Skip Bayless obviously didn’t read the story, tweeting Wednesday: “Just when I thought it was safe to trust the ‘maturing’ Dez, he makes a ‘me’ statement about 2K yds instead of a ‘we’ about making playoffs.”

Bryant got wind of Bayless’ comment and responded Wednesday with the following tweets: “My bad skip I forgot you and your buddy get paid to twist up stories whenever you already know the truth.”

“Correction…i was asked a question.. i didn’t predict anything…basically all i said was it was possible.”

Richard Sherman needs to come back on the show and talk to Skip again.

I don't know why Skip says these things because he actually loves and defends the Cowboys when on the show with Stephen A. I watch them debate on Youtube all the time and even though Stepen A is a hater, he makes more sense than Skippy.......

The day people stop paying attention to the likes of skip and S. Smith the better this world will be and the National IQ will hit an upswing. Those two are like sports version of the Kardashians.

I don't even think Skip believes what he says half the time. It gets people talking though so he and ESPN have done their job.

And if I remember that video right Sherman pretty much called Skip an idiot and a loser that hasn't accomplished nothing in life. That's a pretty foolish statement. So I agree, Sherman is a @$#%#$)(

Bayless is a nobody.. and will always be a nobody. I don't know a single person that enjoyes listening to him. Sherman may have come off as a bit of a narcissist there, but he was right about what he said about Skip. All he does is run his mouth negatively about everyone.

He said Skip is an idiot, ignorant and that in 2 years, Sherman had accomplished more in his field than Skip has over his entire career in his.

What was foolish about that statement, again?

The fact that, whether you like him or hate him, Skip is one of the most famous people in sports media. He's extremely accomplished.

He is also a member of the inaugural class of the Vanderbilt Student Media Hall of Fame

Bayless went directly from Vanderbilt to The Miami Herald, where he wrote sports features for two years before being hired away by the Los Angeles Times.....Bayless also won the Eclipse Award for his coverage of Seattle Slew's Triple Crown.

At 25, Bayless was hired by The Dallas Morning News to write its lead sports column, and two years later, the rival Dallas Times Herald hired him away by making him one of the country's highest paid sports columnists....Bayless was voted Texas sportswriter of the year three times.

After covering the Cowboys through the 1996 season, Bayless chose to leave Dallas after 17 years and become the lead sports columnist for the Chicago Tribune. In his first year in Chicago, Bayless won the Lisagor Award for excellence in sports column writing and was voted Illinois sportswriter of the year.


and now currently co-host his own show on the biggest sports network.

Seems Skip has had a pretty good career as a sportswriter in my opinion.

Idiot? Yes. Unaccomplished nobody? No.

Well we can agree to disagree, but to me.. famous does not equal accomplished.

My definition for each varies greatly.

Skips right, this team has been stuck in the mud for decades, I hope Dez gets 2k but he could have 800 yards and if this team won a playoff game or 2 i would be happy as heck.

Dez's response was very fair and even-handed. Good on him.

I'm glad you pointed that out. It seems to have gotten lost along the way.

Indeed. He handled it a lot better than I would have if I were him.

Whatever, I'm just glad Dez is having a productive offseason. Him being confident in his own ability is the least of my worries.

Fame? Fame is a dime a dozen. Youtube has proven that.

Nice job Dez, putting that putz in his place!


Why even retaliate thats what fuels this imbecile.If you ignore them they will go away I promise its all about ratings and for Dez to even acknowledge this buffoon and his ilk is to give them power.
