Crossing Broad
Fresh off the Cowboys’ defense giving up 30 points and 469 yards, Trevon Diggs went to confront a Cowboys reporter about a tweet during the game and hit him with a “deez nuts” line like it’s 2013 and Vine is back:

God I love seeing the Cowboys implode on and off the field. Gotta love one of their team leaders so triggered by a tweet he LEAVES the locker room to go confront the reporter. How the hell was there no PR person there or anyone trying to usher him back into the locker room? They just let him jaw back and forth with a reporter for a couple minutes with no one intervening. Diggs even went back for more! What is the bald guy’s job in the blue suit behind him? He’s too bald to not be security. He looks like every security guy out of central casting working for a sports team. Jump in there and get your guy. Big Dom would’ve picked up Diggs and walked him back to the locker room. This would never happen on a cohesive unit like the Brooklyn Nets. Some kid called Ben Simmons “trash” and the entire team wanted to fight him. They all appeared like the Avengers ready to beatdown a 10 year old. Diggs is just chilling underneath the stadium barking with a reporter and no one is intervening.
This is the tweet Diggs is upset about btw:

Pretty innocuous, no? Feels like the Eagles beats would tweet something like this if Darius Slay or Reed Blankenship did the same thing. You can see Diggs kind of lollygag until George Kittle got past two Cowboys defenders. Maybe he thought both could be counted on to make the tackle. Of all the things said about Diggs on social media this is the one that sets him over the top?
Now don’t get me wrong, that reporter has an all-time punchable face, so maybe that’s the case. Every time the camera pans to him half-smiling I want to punch him in the face too, so I get Diggs’ frustration that he can’t. The jawline, the fake tan, the make up, the plaid suit, and the pocket square. All of it annoys me!
Diggs should’ve been allowed to ask him, “What do the five fingers say to the face? SLAP!”
Mike Leslie’s punchable face response:
Trevon just came out of the locker room to approach me about this tweet. He said I don’t know football, and I can’t do what he does.
He and I are in agreement about that.
He didn’t offer an answer as to what he was doing on the play, however....
