Dallas Cowboys’ Dak Prescott Should Sign Hometown Discount – Like..

FRISCO – Couple of months ago we ruffled some sports feathers by by writing “Dak is Dirk.” Similar lack of success at identical points in their careers, yadda, yadda and more yadda.

But the more the Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback doesn’t negotiate his bloated, burdersome contract – and the more his brother, Tad, keeps chirping about leaving – the more we’re reminded how different Dak Prescott and Dirk Nowitzki might turn out to be.

Time and again during his career the former Dallas Mavericks’ star gave his team a “hometown discount” and passed up money in contract negotiations to help his front office assemble better, more expensive teammates around him. In all, he declined more than $200 million for the greater good. And, of course, it worked as more financial muscle allowed the Mavs to trade for, and sign, Jason Kidd, leading to the team’s lone championship in 2011.

Cut to Prescott’s brother, who has in recent weeks lambasted the Cowboys as a horribly mismanaged team and essentially promised that his brother desperately wants out of Dallas.

Tad’s recent social media post (pre-dating the latest no-deal deal): “Cowboy fans why continue to DM me TRUST ME, if I could get @dak to leave Dallas I would. I too want him out of Dallas. The city and organization have been great to he and our family, but done with drama and the so called fans, but he loves this team, and wants to bring it rings.”
