Cris Carter, Michael Irvin provide tough love to Dwayne Bowe

Former NFL receiver Cris Carter had some strong words for Vikings wideout Sidney Rice, who opted not to show up for summer workouts with Larry Fitzgerald and others.

Chiefs receiver Dwayne Bowe showed up at the sessions for the first time -- but he might wish he had joined Sidney Rice in anyplace but the presence of Carter and Hall of Famer Michael Irvin.

Per Chip Scoggins of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Carter and Irvin supplied some "tough love" for Bowe, whom one league source recently described to us as "the single biggest dumbass in the NFL."

"Can you imagine your first day coming back to 14 100s?" Bowe, who had taken 12 days off, said. "Man, it was like college again. I've never done this intensive competing, conditioning and technique in one day. . . .

"You can tell [the potential impact] by the production that Sidney Rice had last year," Bowe added. "I know he had Brett Favre but still. I talked to him a week ago and he told me they competed and it made him [better] and he went to the Pro Bowl. Now I think it's my turn to take over."

It sounds like the Chiefs had a hand in arranging the tongue-wagging from Bowe, and the tongue-lashing from Carter and Irvin.

"[S]ome people in Kansas City as far as their administration kind of knew I was going to be here," Carter said. "We kind of let them know that I would be here for [receiver Dwayne] Bowe."

A first-round pick out of LSU, Bowe had two strong years in 2007 and 2008. His production tailed off in 2009, with 47 receptions for 589 yards. He also created an offseason ruckus with his ill-advised comments to ESPN regarding the practice of "importing" something other than matches. Long matches.

LMAO

You know, I wouldn't have a problem with a new auto-edit:

Dwayne "the single biggest dumbass in the NFL" Bowe.

I wonder who's Cheerios he pissed in to be labeled the "the single biggest dumbass in the NFL."?

He has a mouth that he doesn't know how to keep shut, but damn, to say he's the biggest single dumbass...?

this thread is useless without knowing what the "tough love" was.

Bowe is a good WR, and the best first round draft pick this team has made since, oh, Tony Gonzalez or so. For some reason it's become kneejerk for people to hate the guy without any real rational reason for it.

isnt larry johnson still in the league??? if so then how can D.Bowe be the dumbest person in the league?

There's a difference between "biggest fool in the league" and "dumbest person in the league," but think of it this way: You guys can take pride in having had both.

But, we get two more seasons to find out for sure I guess. He's definitely not a personal favorite of mine for performance reasons alone, but I don't hate him.

not hate
just disappointed

and irvin had to call him the biggest dumbass for the importing story

But I like Irvin and Carter working with him. Bowe's ceiling is Michael Irvin, they are very similar players.
