Funny how the news of a Dez video is no where to be found anymore, when just a week or two ago it was all you could find on any NFL site

I have to say, I think the Cowboy fans played that one right. We are as hard on Dez as anyone, but we felt from the beginning that if there really was something there that it should have come out a long time ago. Who knows, maybe there is something to it, but it seemed like a story that the media took off and ran with and shouldn't have. Sometimes Social Media is more a step backwards than forwards. Not saying I know for sure that's what happened, but too bad there is no accountability when these guys jump the gun. Dez is an easy target adn they were falling all over themselves to report what so far has been nothng...

Adam Shefter should be ashamed of himself!

I had a feeling it was all BS. The timing of it was just too convenient. The only question, for me, was the Cowboys front office behind it?

Shefter is a self promoter.

Shefter came on NFL network and said something like this about the Dez Bryant story: " I have been working on this story for a long time, since the beginning of the season. There is definitely a video and it is not good. I know more than I can reveal at this time. Video will be released. I have not seen the video."

Seems to me that Shefter was acting the part of a shill for someone.

Shefter just likes to promote himself. He is a legend only in his own mind.

I get that, no argument there.

But, the timing of it was all very peculiar. I mean we had heard nothing about this story and then all of a sudden it pops up one week before an important deadline in the Dez contract talks. And then once it hit the news, this whole bullshit back story was created to make it seem as though this had been making the rounds for months.

Coincidences happen, but this was all just way too convenient.

Mike Florio is the rat that started this nonsense and Shefter threw gas on the fire to keep it in the news cycle

Both should be suspended for the damage the did while just playing coy with the facts that they could not tell any more.

Karma is a mean Bitch and they both have a big helping of her headed their way someday.

If the reports are true, that 6 game suspension would be well deserved. Hardy allegedly strangled and threatened to kill his now ex-GF. From the reports that I have read, this was a few steps above your typical domestic violence case.

I said earlier that they would not be interested in Hardy and now they are reporting that Hardy and the Cowboys are working on a contract

I thought Dallas was moving away from these types of decisions... Somewhat surprising to me.

Never a down side to kicking the tires on a good player. If they decide they aren't interested all they have to say is that they looked into the matter and decided not to pursue the player...
