Over the last couple days, there has been reports out of Dallas Cowboys camp about how Dez Bryant was refusing to participate in the customary rookie hazing process of carrying the shoulder pads of the veterans.
I think every report/opinion I've read/heard about it can be distilled down to "Who does he think he is?!?" Well, I was with you, Dez. The hazing tradition is stupid... and someone should take a stand. Now, I will acknowledge that carrying pads is a very modest form of hazing and, if that is all there is to it... well, then even I can not work up much indignation. But when it comes to something like this, I'd had drawn the line much sooner.
Alas, Bryant has already caved. Oh well, maybe Tim Tebow should be the guy to take the stand... I bet the media would have covered the story differently if it were him that took that stand.
