Dez Bryant says " I don't carry anyones pads" lol

[saden1]

There's always a cut off as to what you're willing to do but holding pads isn't one of them. In any case, this says to me Dez Bryant doesn't know how to pick his battles. I wish the Cowboys the worst of luck... preferably a zero win season.

That's exactly my thing. Roy should have shut his mouth and known his place on the team - which is a tenuous place at best.

Coming from Romo, or Felix Jones, or Jason Witten, this would have been totally acceptable.

But wouldn't it be pretty ridiculous for Stephon Heyer to make Trent Williams carry his pads? I don't care if he's a rookie or not, if you don't have the standing on the team, then don't make him carry your shit.

Talent has nothing to do with it. Williams had to carry some failed Lions WRs' pads when he was a rookie and so should Bryant. It's about seniority, vets vs. rookies...Dez is going to bring something more severe on himself and I'll laugh the whole time. I hope he gets hung from a goalpost and gets footballs chucked at him. Then the team takes him out to dinner and leaves him with the bill for 50 guys.

That's life as a rookie. Even Orakpo went through it.

Bryant is looking like an already-spoiled, arrogant diva WR. He's representing the #88 well.

The real story will be when Roy Williams whips out his dirty old jock strap after practice one day and tells Dez to carry it and Dez slugs him in the mouth and beats his ass, and then all the vets turn on Dez for not following the hazing tradition, thus alienating him from the rest of the squad before training camp is even over.

Naw he is Jerry's newest toy, he will protect him.

I really think it will not add up to much of anything, other than a bunch of message board chatter......

[wilsowilso]

After two days of following this, I have decided that I think this is just awesome!

It forces the veteran leaders on the Cowboys to address it. Period!

Management will just want it to go away, but those bitches have to address it.

The revelation is going to be that the veteran leaders on the Cowboys are..... deep down..... a bunch of Mega Vaginas.

This is so BS, way to insult everyones intelligence. In his defense this was more directed to Cowboy fans so they weren't affected.

Don't you mean when L.L. overpursues and whiffs on the big hit only to see Bryant break free and score a 50+ yard touchdown in week one?

And I believe him when he says he didn't know about it. You think he was spending his spare time looking up how vets haze rookies in training camp?

Either way the story is killed because he understands now that he has to do that and he's already said he will be doing that, and I bet we'll see about 30 different photos of him carrying some pads either today or tomorrow, if it hasn't happened already.

Landry at SS is a different player than Landry at FS. I expect him to have a great year.
