And I love how when Tom Brady is a petulant bitch he's called a "fiery leader" while when someone like Dez Bryant does it they're a "thug." Great double standard.
This, I totally agree with.

yeah, i was just thinking how brady can go apeshit on any ref and he'll never get penalized.

Kinda like Dez Bryant did on that Pass Interference flag they picked up?

When Peyton Manning won his one and only ring on the strength of playing Rex fucking Grossman.
That Bears defense deserved so much better.

Oh no, yeah, he absolutely was. On the field with his helmet off and everything. But the refs were very much ignoring him. But he was throwing a fit.

Both things are judgement calls. The helmet thing has nothing to do with it as that only applies to players currently on the field.

Dez is not a leader. A leader does not need a grown man hired by the team he plays for to babysit him.

How is Dez a leader?

How is he not? He's a veteran pro-bowler who tries to get his teammates going when the chips are down. Like I said, when Brady does it he's just "fiery" and "trying to be motivational." But it's the same goddamn thing.

Given how high-strung and Type A Dez is, and by NFL standards at that, it's tough to imagine him not being a leader.

Personally I don't think Dez is a thug. I'm not racist so there is that. I think he is a prima-donna. Huge difference there. Hell of a player though. Brady whines sometimes. A lot of Cowboys fans think people are out to get Cowboys fans. It's interesting.

Who isn't a type a personality in the NFL? Jay Cutler? That might be it.

Heh, you must have saw my post before I edited in "and by NFL standards at that" since I thought the same thing four seconds after I hit submit.

I don't think you're out to get me, but I certainly think you're talking out of your ass, like bringing up him needing support from the organization when he was 21-22. That has nothing to do with anything in 2014, a year in which he led the league in TDs and is an integral part of a great offense. An offense on which, yes, I would call him a leader.

Needing support from the organization? Stop enabling behavior like that. You are old enough at 21-22 to know right from wrong. Just as much as when you are 27. Has he matured? Probably. But to put him in the same category as Brady as far as leadership? Cmon.

Isn't Witten the leader? Hard to say if you are not on the team I guess.

I just hope the Broncos can get Demaryius Thomas extended before the Cowboys blow up the WR market with a Dez extension.
