At some point, Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver Dez Bryant was going to get his comeuppance. Teammate Roy Williams all but guaranteed that during training camp. Bryant made national news in training camp when he refused to carry Williams' pads after practice -- bucking the trend of veteran NFL players hazing rookies. Bryant later said he didn't know about such tradition. "I'm not doing it," Bryant said then. "I feel like I was drafted to play football, not carry another player's pads." Williams excused it, saying then that Bryant would just have to take the team out to dinner and and get him some new shoes. Well, that dinner happened Monday night. The final tab: $54,896. ESPN.com
LMAO!!! I heard about this on the radio today. I bet Dez wishes he had carried his pads when Roy asked...
um, $1,000 a plate? where the heck did they eat? I don't think I could even spend $1,000 on dinner/drinks on myself even if I tried ............... unless i ordered $800 worth of really expensive wine with my meal...........
Thanks for stimulating the economy, Dez. You coulda just carried the pads, but President Obama appreciates it.
Even though that's chump change to him at this point, I still feel like that's kinda hecked up. lol but funny though still.
When the shoulder pads controversy broke out, and Dez refused to carry Roy's pads, the team said that they would come up with something else for Dez to do, and that's just what they did. I wonder if Dez regrets not carrying Roy's pads now!
