Dez Bryant drated by Cowboys, his mama was...

[Hawkeye9]

I have been in Rio and missed alot sports news, but first thing I see on ESPN NFL Live when I get back is:
when the dolphins Jeff Ireland was interviewing Dez Bryant before the draft, he asked him if his mother was a prostitute.
Of course he got pissed and the Dolphins owner took responsibilty.
Anyways kinda makes you wonder whay they brought that up.

Cowboys drafted him, so we get to see her in the stands I am sure.

anyways, any reviews on dez bryants mom!!!

That link is not politically correct and I cannot take any blame for the content.

No wonder. The prick looks like Karl Rove's son.

Ireland: Say, man, you got a joint?
Bryant: No, not on me, man.
Ireland: It’d be a lot cooler if you did.

Haha, that's some funny shit.

Jeff Ireland's question was TOTALLY inappropriate UNLESS Dez's Mom is going to play for the Cowboys too. You get the hand that you're dealt in life. Whether or not she was a prostitute for whatever reason is irrelevant when it comes to Dez Bryant. Some of these NFL staffs are out of touch with the world. They say "we're all about character" and ask a question like this. That qustion had nothing to do about Bryant's character. He's made some mistakes but who on this planet hasn't? Good children are raised by men and women that are good parents; namely they put their child above everything else, they'll always think "how is this going to affect my child" before they consider themselves. Children raised in a loving and nurturing environment will always have an advantage. I was glad to see that Ireland apologized AFTER information about the question was made public. I'd have a better opinion about HIS character if he' not asked the question to begin with, but there you go! It's always easier to say "I'm sorry" when your ass is about to be hung above a flame, isn't it? I can't wait for Romo to fall back, toss the ball in Bryant's direction and watch him make one of those incredible catchs where it's Jusssssst on his fingertips but he pulls it in and ignites his god-given speed for a touchdown. I hope tey show his proud Mom in the stands (likely wearing one of her son's jerseys). In my heart I hope he makes that catch against the Dolphins and they get a shot of Ireland's mopey face as he crossed the goal lin.

I guess I'm in the minority, I don't see the big deal with them asking that. I don't know the whole background, but if the dolphins had info on his mother before they met. I say it's fair game to ask him. If he grew up with that around him who knows what kind of people he associated with growing up. If that story about his father being the pimp is true, then hell yea I might ask him about his childhood. I couldn't look past that and pay him millions.
