I can remember him blowing up even in Philadelphia too.

It is just BSPN being BSPN it is becoming painful to even watch at all !!!!!

Oh and by the way 1st

No self-awareness whatsoever.

but the continue to lower the bar—

just the latest incident is the Rob Parker / Marinelli thing… make no mistake about it, Parker is much more well known because of ESPN ties (1050 New York, First Take on ESPN2)

and he wanted the spotlight… thats all they do

There wasn’t a team that was more dysfunctional than the ’95 Cowboys under Switzer, but they ended up winning the SB.

Chris Carter, like many other former players turner analysts, is just a complete moron and has no business being employed in broadcasting…just a complete jackass.

I didn’t think he would, but he’s a company man now.

Thank God for Trent Dilfer, the only guy they havent broken yet.

(S)LINK

is to insure job security if you are in the media profession..

so this does not bother me at all… would be nice to get in, win it all, and tell CC to F off….

Really, if we win on Sunday we would have had a well publicized up and down season that got us 10 wins, enough to get to the post season.. if we lose we don’t have enough wins with a very talented team to make the post season..

either way we DESERVE what we get…. no one else won a game for us, no one else lost a game for us so we DESERVE what ever happens….

Carter can take his holier than thow attitude and apply it to a few other teams for their ‘dysfunction’

Adam Jones had a few drinks and got suspended, Plxaico Burres discharded a handgun in a crowded night club and tried to (with help from the Giants organization) cover it up.
T.O. has a big mouth and is pretty much becoming a cancer, but he did not threaten to leave the team or not play for us etc…, a la Chad Johnson.

didn’t Ray Lewis KILL someone for god sake a few years back….

now, i am not saying these are not problems on our team, but man.. look around Chris, and tell me you are not just jumping on the bash the Cowboys bandwagon so you have something to talk about..

i am sure we would ALL love to have Roger Staubach quior boys at every postion on evey team in the NFL, but if owners are going to want to win and the NFL wants to put a good product on the market these things are going to happen, players are people, flawed, imperfect people….

F U Chris Carter

No one knows what goes on inside a team, so the best thing is to reserve your judgment. Hasn’t Cris learned anything from life?

so that his credibility on this subject is 0.

makes me smile haha. Cris Carter doesn’t DESERVE to be talking about team unity on ESPN and is an EMBARASSMENT to players that do put the team first…

Go Cowboys!

screw cris carter
he can sit home and cry while t.o. hoists the lombardi

Typical, in that a former player, just because he has a job on TV, now imagines himself to be a ‘respected football critic and all round sports philosopher’ (like say, the late Jim Murray of the LA times). He’s neither, and his rantings in that vain should be laughed at, not debated. Stick to the game analysis and color stuff Chis, we need you for little else.

So great to have you and Rafael here at BTB, and this was definitely an issue that needed to be addressed.

In another thread I alluded to Carter’s early career (and plenty of later career ones as well) travails. For those not up to speed on that history, here’s what I was referring to:

http://sports.jrank.org/pages/793/Carter-Cris-Overcame-Addiction-Excelled.html

Carter played for Ohio State University and began his professional career when he was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in 1987. His first reception as a pro player was a 22-yard touchdown catch. At the time, however, he was battling addictions to alcohol and cocaine. Carter flunked three drug tests while with the Eagles, who waived him in 1990.

Someone tell me again when T.O. has been a drug addict or waived from a team because of failed drug tests. In fact, why don’t we run through all of the Cowboys and put their drug histories against that of Cris Carter.

I’m glad Carter turned things around for himself, and I hate to bring this stuff up in the first place. However, if you want to talk about flat-out hypocrites (for his remarks on the Cowboys) and distraction divas, Cris Carter is well up the list in NFL history. As others have mentioned, this was likely both Carter being mad T.O. just passed him in TDs and his wanting to suck up to Berman and the rest of the ESPN NFL hierarchy. For someone with Carter’s baggage to say what he did was ludicrous, irresponsible and, frankly, insane. Does Cris really think no one knows about his own past? Because Carter made the comments he did, people such as Raul and myself and any number of others get to air Carter’s old dirty laundry for the world to examine.

Poor move, Cris. But given your track record, it’s par for the course.

You would think that he, of all people, would be willing to give Owens a second (or third) chance also.

At the end of a terrible season, the defensive end punches out the future QB.

Where are you ESPN? You have to make up fights between Witten and TO, here is the real deal and it is a blip on page 10.

If we DO make the playoffs despite all of the “drama” that has taken place in big D, wouldn’t that be a testament to us coming together as a team? Or is Carter saying that the only way we make the playoffs is because we have an abundance of raw talent? What if we make a run? If the NFL is so team first-oriented as Carter suggests, wouldn’t a SB run just go to prove the mediots wrong and show that we came together and blew everyone away?

…What am I thinking trying to understand this moron. Go find some booger-sugar, Carter. you suck as an analyst and deserve a seat next to Keyshawn…

How about in the 99 playoffs when the vikings set the single season scoring record and then choked in the championship game to the falcons? This guys know a lot about dealing with bit*hes since he lives with himself.

makes a box of rocks look like a bunch of rocket scientists. I liken him to Mike Tyson without the funny voice.

of Pro Football, ESPN and the other networks know that the boys are the most loved AND most hated team in the NFL, they make their living off of the boys, they feed the beast that is fandom, as long as the cowboys and yankees exist there will be networks like espn to feed off of them.
