This comes two days after I said Quincy Morgan couldn't catch AIDS if you threw blood stained needles at him !!!
WHY BILL WHY ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? !
oh and by the way Jerry Rice was traded too....
IRVING, Texas (Ticker) - Antonio Bryant found out that you don't cross Bill Parcells.
Hours before Tuesday's trade deadline, the Cowboys shipped Bryant to the Cleveland Browns for Quincy Morgan in a swap of receivers.
Even though he had played well in five games this season, Bryant's days with the Cowboys may have been numbered since he threw a sweaty jersey in Parcells' face during training camp.

Bryant later apologized to Parcells and returned to the team and was the third receiver behind Keyshawn Johnson and Terry Glenn. He had 16 catches for 266 yards.
Always thought of as a talented player, Bryant dropped into the second round of the 2002 draft due to character issues. The 6-1 Bryant has 99 catches for 1,549 yards with eight touchdowns in 37 career games.
The deal also marked another shakeup to the Cowboys' receiving corps. In the offseason, they dealt Joey Galloway to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for Johnson.
In Cleveland, Bryant likely will fill the third receiver slot behind Andre' Davis and Dennis Northcutt.
A speedster, Morgan had just nine catches for 144 yards but led the Browns with three TD receptions. He had a 10-yard TD catch in last Sunday's 34-17 victory over Cleveland.
Selected in the second round in 2001, Morgan has 133 receptions for 2,056 yards and 15 touchdowns in 54 career games. Morgan enjoyed his best season in 2002, catching 56 passes for 964 yards and seven touchdowns.
With Dallas, Morgan will fill Bryant's previous role and play in three-receiver sets with Johnson and Glenn.
