you can stand behind you own story by saying nothing or make yourself look like a fool by issuing a elementary school playground rebuttal.

Just let it go

Its about another “article” Silver wrote, but there seems to be a pattern developing: Silver putting out biased, opinionated crap disguised as news… people reading it & thinking he’s an idiot.

Ever see a lion pick every piece of meat from it’s prey? You just did. Lets see what Silver is really saying.

In terms of free publicity – and, more important, drawing attention to a flawed pre-draft process – the Dez Bryant(notes)/Jeff Ireland controversy is the gift that keeps on giving.

So now it’s a flawed draft process and not just Ireland being an A-List A-Hole. At least he admits he did it for the publicity.

On Monday, six days after Ireland apologized to Bryant (and three days after he and/or his close associates likely leaked a belated, passive-aggressive, attempted contextual rationalization of the remark)

How many times is Silver going to make it look like Ireland apologized for asking the question? Ireland said “I talked to Dez Bryant and told him I used poor judgment in one of the questions I asked him. I certainly meant no disrespect and apologized to him.” Poor judgment could mean many things such as how he asked it, when he asked it, how he asked it or even the fact that he asked it in the first place. It could mean what Silver says it does or it could mean he used anything from the wrong tone to really anything you consider bad judgment within the question. Never does he say that asking it is the bad juedgment.

Also if Silver believes that it truly was the Dolphins who put out the other side then he’s point blank calling the Dolphins liars. He’s assuming he’s representing the honest side without considering the alternative or even explaining that to his readers.

For what it’s worth, I can tell you that NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith was appalled by the way Bryant was treated – and by other recent revelations of demeaning and insensitive questions posed to players in the pre-draft process – and plans to press the league for meaningful change.

It’s not worth much since he’d have to have a wish to be removed from his position if he said anything other than what he said. Here’s another example of Silver showing that he’s aware of other instances but decided to only single out Ireland the first time around. He’s still only slightly referring to anyone else doing anything similar.

My feeling here is Silver is trying to either prove his report true or prove Bryant is lying to him. If this doesn’t go away soon I’m sure Goodell will step in to rule. I view him not stepping in thus allowing the Dolphins to give Ireland a pass shows that what they’re (supposedly) saying is the truth.

You can either think Ireland is a jerk that bullies people around or Bryant is a liar. Stephen Ross said he would be reviewing the issue and then came back and took no action against Ireland. Since then Goodell has taken no action. Are are these things not speaking louder than Silver and Bryant? Unbelievable if you ask me and I for one can’t wait for these guys to keep throwing gas on the Bryant fire. I for one am convinced proof exists that the question was asked for a good reason based on how some very credible men have reacted to the situation. If media keeps pushing they’re going to get exactly what they want from someone and that’s proof that Dez is FOS.

Sure thinks highly of himself..

The guy is a total assbag. Plain and simple. But I’m done with this boring, overhyped, and simply pointless story.

Silver can go suck one…
