Fashion Police cracks down on Dez

With the 24th pick in the first round of last year's NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys selected Dez Bryant out of Oklahoma State. Within days of his arrival to training camp, the standout wide receiver was an instant hit amongst Cowboy fans. And if it wasn't for the combination of St. Louis' Sam Bradford who nearly turned a 1-15 Rams team just a year ago into a Playoff contender and an injured ankle suffered by Bryant in week 13, we could very well be looking at last year's Rookie of the Year. But even with the impressive numbers Dez accumulated despite the insufficient playing time, his off-the-field issues would often overshadow his rookie campaign.

Dating back to as early as April of 2010 before being drafted, Bryant has been an unfortunate victim of numerous incidents, first starting with his infamous pre-draft interview where he was asked about his mothers past and most notably if she was a prostitute. The shenanigans continued when he refused to take part in a long-lived Cowboys tradition of carrying the pads of veteran players during training camp, followed by an injured ankle during practice. And of coarse, who could forget the $860,000 he's being sued for after allegedly taking jewelry without payment. However, none of the above compare to his most recent episode.

While spending a day at the North Park mall popping some tags and reenacting the Fabolous 'Just throw it in the bag' music video, Bryant along with his posse, were strolling around the mall when suddenly they were approached by a security guard who asked them to pull up their sagging pants. The request angered Bryant who began to make a scene and responded with profanity which eventually led to them being kicked out of the mall. What should have ended there, then escalated to the parking lot where Bryant's entourage parked in a red zone, refusing to leave. The mischievous acts eventually landed the Cowboys wide-out a 90-day ban from the mall, along with a trespassing warning.

With the whole NFL lockout thing going on, I don't expect Cowboys owner Jerry Jones to comment like he usually does, but this can't paint a pretty picture for the Oklahoma State alum. As for the man himself, Dez who commented on the subject, agrees. "I know how much I mean to the people of Dallas," Bryant said. "I feel like the people of Dallas give me a lot of love. I want to make them proud." If that's the case, he's gotten off on the wrong foot, entering only his second year in the lone star state. Luckily for him, he won't have to resort to buying sneakers online for long, as his ban from the mall is expected to be dropped sometime this week, pending an approval from officials. Perhaps next time he makes a trip to the outlet, he'll buy some belts for him and his crew.

Though he claims he plans to clean up his act, something tells me this won't be the last of Dez Bryant's head shaking adventures. So until next time, wear a belt kiddies!
