Irvin: Men pulled gun, talked Cowboys

[sa_butta]

DALLAS -- Hall of Fame receiver Michael Irvin (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=23) says he calmly chatted with a gunman in another vehicle after the armed passenger turned out to be a Dallas Cowboys (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=dal) fan.
Irvin, who was not harmed, says he was "very afraid."
A Dallas police report says Irvin was stopped at a red light Monday night in North Dallas when two men in a truck pulled up next to him.
The driver rolled down his window, so Irvin did the same, thinking the two men recognized the radio talk show host and television commentator.
The passenger flashed a gun. Then the retired NFL star heard one of them call out his name and mention being a "huge Cowboy fan."
"The passenger pulled out a semiautomatic and I knew what time it was," Irvin told The Dallas Morning News. "But he said, 'Oh, that's Michael Irvin, with the Dallas Cowboys.'"
Irvin says he began talking with the men about the team's disappointing 9-7 season and Dallas not making it to the Super Bowl.
"So we started talking about the Cowboys and everything," Irvin said in the Morning News. "Then they got back on the highway."
The pair eventually drove off.
"I tell you what, I'm glad he was a Cowboy fan," Irvin told the Morning News.

I heard about this on ESPN Radio this morning. Crazy stuff.

Has to be a lie. If he were a real Cowboys fan, he would have started firing.

[IronMexican]

Good thing it was a Cowboy fan.

Maybe if it was Tony Romo instead.

No, if it was Romo in January it would have been a misfire.

that and Irvin would have put down his crack pipe and fired back

Too bad we don't have an emoticon of a smiley face on a drum set doing the snare and cymbal crash because I would totally use it right now.

Instead you get this :toast

Those gang members were fucking stupid though. I mean, let's just use hypotheticals here and say I was in a gang, and I have that gang mentality where I have to sell drugs, steal valuables and money from innocent people, and maybe kick some ass, deliver a beatdown or two, or just straight up kill some motherfuckers to move up in the gang ranks... and I have Michael Irvin pulled over... I have guns... he definitely has money (or a huge cocaine stash, which, once sold, generates money)... and I let the motherfucker go?

The boss would equalize my ass for letting Michael Irvin off the hook.

[IronMexican]

But he's a huge fan. I would let any Raider great go.

[to21]

T.O. would have been a dead mutha.
