Sounds to me like this hasn't always been a strict tradition to follow anyway.

Funny how everything Dez related has been overblown.
They said the same thing about another Cowboys WR a couple years ago, right before that team completely imploded.

yeah that's why this story has been all over ESPN today and everybody is saying Dez is wrong. Because nobody gives a .
Yeah like Wade's going to come out and put Jerry's shiny new toy on blast in front of the media.
way to take half of what I wrote bro![]()
I assume you were screaming about Jerry forcing 88 on all the other players that had it to.
Yes..because ESPN decides what's going to be an issue in the locker room...that makes sense..because ESPN is suiting up and going out on the field. ESPN is the guy leading the team...oh..speaking of leaders...didya hear what Bradie James said about it?
"It's nothing. I mean, you guys have got to talk about it, so you guys talk about it. For us, it's nothing. Think about it -- it's nothing. It just so happened to be Dez Bryant."
He just said Flozell didn't do it either![]()
Coaches don't come up with it, the players do. Some rookies do it, some don't. No "longstanding tradition" was changed unless you think Jerry ordered Wade to make up the story about Flozell too (which I wouldn't be surprised if you did)
ESPN thinks it's such a major issue that they have the Cowboys ranked #4 in the power rankings to start the season...wow...they must really think this is going to affect this team. Truth is, it's the Cowboys, there's not enough news in the NFL, therefore it's going to be a story.
You're ing rookie and all the greats before you did the same. So STFU and carry his bags, hold his sack if he wants you too.
Your team is more important than your ego.
You could of been 'in' with the team, now no ones going to trust your stupid monkey ass other than mr plastic face himself.
If you ain't getting 2,500 yards this season GTFO my team.
So now we're gonna compare the greatest cancer in football history to a rookie that has just shown up to his first training camp.
Awesome![]()
you're overblowing this more than the haters...yes...he should have carried them..but to say "all the greats before you did the same" is wrong..not everyone did it. And comparing team to ego? What do you think is behind hazing anyway? Explain how hazing helps the team? It's about the ego of the veterans. And if you've seen the way this guy catches, I guarantee you Romo is going to trust this guy whether he carries someone's pads or not.
Wade Phillips mentioned it, and since 99% of what Phillips says to the media is stuff passed down to him by Jones, I think it's safe to assume Jones mentioned it.
find a story about T.O. not carrying pads as a rookie.
T.O. had the common courtesy of actually accomplishing something in the NFL before being a big prima donna.
and answer truthfully, wasn't the term "non-issue" the most used word of the 2008 season?
tbh saying only 99% is being really nice to lap dog Wade.
so I guess Roy, Bradie James, and Jason Witten are lapdogs for Jones too? Because all of them said it was a non-issue as well.
It's funny how much Cowboyfan hated Wade Phillips calling him a puppet lap dog, but since he happened to be coach when the Cowboys won their playoff victory superbowl Cowboyfan now blindly defends him.
Why? When I can find many stories of that he's done that's a lot worse. Has Dez Bryant wrecked three teams in his NFL career like TO has?
No, they're players who are smart enough to say the right things to the media to avoid sparking controversy. Dez Bryant however is a different story.
It was anything but a non-issue yesterday for Roy. Today it's magically a non-issue and you're naive enough to think that Roy didn't have a chat with Jerruh last night?
Bradie James will suck if it means he gets on the field. He's a company man if there ever was one.
Jason Witten didn't say it was a non-issue, he said it would be handled in house, meaning he wasn't gonna put Jerry's shiny new toy on blast in front of the media.
So now I'm defending Wade? How many more words are you gonna put in my mouth?
Dez would need to have an NFL career first, which is the entire ing problem.
Exactly. So why are we even comparing the two?
and answer my question - wasn't everything TO was saying/doing in 2008 also being called a "non-issue" by the Cowboys?
BECAUSE DEZ IS ACTING LIKE THIS BEFORE EVEN PROVING HIMSELF ON THE FIELD.
TERRELL OWENS BEING A CANCER IS AT LEAST PARTIALLY ACCEPTABLE BECAUSE HE PRODUCED ON THE FIELD AND PAID HIS DUES BEFORE HE STARTED ACTING LIKE A .
Jesus ing Christ is it really that hard to comprehend?
You're implying Wade Phillips is actually something more than Jerry Jones' puppet who formulates his own responses to media speculation, that's defending him considering we all know Wade Phillips only has a job because he'll agree to everything Jones wants.
