Agreed. Whether it would have been Irvin, or Parcells, or the others people have suggested, I agree that Bryant probably would have obliged. The fact is that these two are in competition, and I think it's very possible that Bryant got a vibe that Williams was making the hazing a little personal, which would piss anyone off.

I actually like a little cockiness in an athlete like this. I would have said, from what i hear, Roy needs to carry my pads. And then i would have smiled, and said, i'm just playing.

Which makes my first point. The man can't humble himself and take it like a champ and have some fun with it. He's taking it as this guy isn't going to get the best of me when what Williams is doing has nothing to do with their roster spots. It has to do with him being a rookie, and Roy Williams being a vet as a WR in the NFL as a Dallas Cowboy.

It's kinda hilarious when you think about it. They're both already in each other's heads. I think they're both to blame.

Was Dez Bryant out of line in training camp? | National Football Post

Either way. If we can turn up the heat on them, good. Tell everyone you know that Dez Bryant is a malcontent. We can increase the demand for more more attention being put on Dallas, and that (non-situation).

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.

well considering that he's going to take williams' job i don't blame him. williams had like thirty some catches and made like 8 million. what a joke. that is called stealing. williams just needs to worry about not getting cut. soon williams will be carrying bryant's pads. lol.

if tony romo told him to do it then he should do it. but roy williams?????

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.

I get a chuckle when I read posts about “Trouble in Cowgirl camp” about this. Trouble? Really? If this is a deep as the media has to dig to find something controversial to write about the entire Cowboys off season, then I surely welcome it. Bring it on.

So he refused to carry a vets pads. Where are the comments about Dez Bryant being the first player on the field for practice? A full 45 minutes before anyone else hit the field? Wheres the comments that Bryant was at the Alamodome ready for that first practice 2 hours before anyone else was there?

Where’s the comments that he was the first player that was selected in the, 1st round to sign?
How about when a reporter commented on how well this young man presented himself, the reporter commented on how he counted Bryant responding with “Yes SIR” 6 times in a five minute interview?

But when he refuses to carry shoulder pads for a vet WR whose only claim to fame is that he couldn’t catch water if he fell out of a friggin boat, THAT’S CONTREVERSY!?

Like I said, bring it on.

actually NFL N and ESPN both reported that he was the 1st one there and the last one to leave.

You know, if I was a college dropout who was suspended for a year for some misdemeanor (no matter how slight or overblown it may be) and was getting paid millions of dollars to play a game, I would be on my best behavior too.

And with a rep for showing up late...he may have been early on day one, but let's see if it lasts...
