The unfortunate case of Dez Bryant and excessively droopy pants By MJD Dez Bryant(notes) made headlines last night after police were called to intervene in a dispute over the fit of his pants, or, depending on who you believe, the fit of his friends' pants. Someone's pants were deemed too low by whoever is in charge of pants policy at the North Park mall in Dallas. Here's the Dallas PD's side of the story: Desmond Bryant(notes) was issued a criminal trespass warning by representatives of NorthPark Center when he began using profanity after he and his companions were requested to pull their pants up by Dallas Police officers working off-duty at the scene so as to not expose their underwear and buttocks to other patrons of the center. This action is not a violation of law and officers would have taken no official police action. Mr. Bryant's response to the request was profanity laced [as in, per the police report, "What the [expletive], you stopped me like I stole something!"], and center representatives felt the outburst merited a request for Mr. Bryant to leave the premises. There's more here. And here's Bryant's side of the story, via Calvin Watkins at ESPNDallas.com: Bryant, however, told ESPNDallas.com his pants were up but some of his friends' pants were down. "It really wasn't me in the wrong," Bryant said Tuesday. "It's not even an issue." "I told the guy I'm not trying to get in trouble," Bryant said. "I'm not trying to destroy my image. The [warning] wasn't toward me. I was trying to figure out what was going on. It was a big misunderstanding. I was the wrong guy." If Dez is telling the truth and the culprit was indeed someone else, I'd just like to warn the people of Dallas to stay vigilant. There's currently someone at large with his pants at an unacceptable level. I expect that the Dallas PD will begin their investigation by interviewing all local plumbers. As for Bryant, he's already moved on, and is confident that he'll be welcomed back at the North Park Mall. He fired off this tweet last night: (see tweet in the article) http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/sh...ase-of-Dez-Bryant-and-excessive?urn=nfl-wp505 Let's just hope he wears those LeBrons at a level that we can all be comfortable with.
part of having a good image is choosing the right people. however, I do not think you should be guilty by association for the pants. The issue though is not the sagging pants but the trespassing. Amazing how they can twist the law for whatever purpose. He wasn't trespassing until the sagging pants of others was seen.
well it is the law. if you are driving a car and a friend is with you and he goes into a store and robs and you dont know it. you will get arrested with him. will you get convicted is another thing but the possiblity is high that you will
yes, I'm pointing to the misuse of it. He wasn't trespassing until after the saggin pants was seen. That's just ridiculous. It's like if you don't do what I tell you I'll look for something to arrest you. That is the problem.
yeah. I got you.....I just hat to see that sagging pants shit though. Im on campus especially and these fools are literally showing the cracks of their asses. I end up going to the nearest woman mag to get the gay shit out my eyes.
Yea, I have seen it a lot in orlando. It was a big reality shock for me. Along with black people smoking. I didn't think it was that serious until I moved to Orlando.
