Dez Does Dallas (Again) - mdrake34 - 03-28-2011 08:04 PM
I'm SO glad this fucktard isn't on our team. I'd rather have lost to GB than win with this clown on the team.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant is being sued for $246,000 by a New York-based jewelry company in a civil suit filed Friday in Dallas.
Bryant purchased $267,000 worth of jewelry from A+A Diamonds LTD d/b/a Rafaello & Company, which makes high-end jewelry for celebrities and athletes.

Bryant's highest purchase was a $60,000 custom charm bracelet. He made the purchases on four different days last year, spending as much as $144,000 on Feb. 8, 2010, according to court documents.
"We'll let the lawsuit speak for itself," said Mike Bowes, a Dallas-based attorney who represents the plaintiffs. "My clients in New York worked for several months with Mr. Bryant's counsel to work something out with no satisfactory resolution."
Bryant could not be reached for comment.
The Cowboys wide receiver was in trouble two weekends ago when he received a criminal trespass warning for an incident at NorthPark Center when he got into a profanity-filled exchange with off-duty police over sagging pants. Bryant said his pants weren't the problem, but one of his friend's pants were low and Bryant got into an argument with the police, who took exception to the fashion statement. Bryant later said that he was treated badly by the police.
The citation would have banned Bryant from the mall for 90 days, but after apologies were administered from both sides, he has been allowed to return to the shopping center.

MHO is, too bad it wasn't a permanent one....
that said, without further hijacking the thread, I'm glad we don't have players on our team we have to worry about making this kind of news. No more water bottle in the airport type of stuff for us, thank goodness. AND we've had three winning seasons in a row? a little more maturity, a few more missing pieces, and we'll have that Lombardi! WITHOUT character issues

All that and Jenkins like stats. What a bargain for a first round pick!
What exactly is he being sued for?
He got banned from the mall....lol...that's so teenagerish.

Swift is still probably reading these boards you know. Unless he got given an IP ban and has to go elsewhere to get on. On the subject though. I never wanted Dez, something about him never washed with me before I read up on him. Gut said no and low and behold there is a bunch of crap. I wanted spoon or Graham. Kind of hoped we'd have taken a swing at Dunlap some how. I thought he could be a player down the line but come in and contribute early. I did not forsee him doing as well as he did though

Mods work in mysterious ways.
While I don't particularly like Swift, he does make some good points... occasionally.
Oh, and +1 for the title!

I thoroughly enjoy discussing football with swift on occasion. Love him or hate him, he's not just a casual fan. I get too frustrated with him more times often than not.
I thought the thread title was rather clever myself.
