Take a look at what Parsons had to say.

The Dallas Cowboys are fresh off their disappointing postseason exit at the hands of the San Francisco 49ers, who have since themselves lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship game. The Eagles are headed to the Super Bowl, and there was one particular member of the Cowboys who was quick to praise Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson's performance - Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons.
“I don’t think people realize what Lane Johnson is doing rn,” Parsons tweeted. “Freaking heroic! One of my favorites players in this league!”
Parons then followed up with:
“Love you big bro! Keep going! Not many like you! Definitely not playing like you healthy or with a torn groin! Go win a bowl for our division!”
However, that didn't exactly sit well with an author of the aggregate sports website Barstool Sports, who didn't exactly appreciate Parsons celebrating a division rival.
“Micah Parsons Telling Lane Johnson To ‘Go Win A Bowl For Our Division’ Is The Lowest, Saddest Moment In Cowboys History,” their blog post was titled in response.
The article went on to say:
“You know what you don’t do? Publicly tell the Eagles to go win a Super Bowl. Go ahead and tell him privately. Text him even. Sure. But the moment you publicly said this, it became the lowest, saddest moment in the history of the Cowboys.”
Parsons clapped back in a big way, referring to the writer as "sick" and that there's nothing wrong with celebrating another man's success:
"You people are sick! You will sit in your own misery because of lack of accomplishments than root for others!! I have no Shame! The league is a brotherhood ! I’ll never pray down on another man success nor be ashamed to say I’m happy for my brothers success!"
It sure sounds like the rivalry between the Eagles and Cowboys isn't going to get in the way of members of the respective teams complementing one another!
