Anyone else feel a certain connection to Terrell Owens? I don't think he's a bad guy - he's hasn't even been in real trouble with the law.

In case you missed it:

He's just a little too sensitive for the NFL. I feel for him. :shaking: :cry:

Hope the ATL Falcons pick him up. He'd be pretty normal on that team! (And in this town.)

I cannot stand TO! He and people like him are why I don't like the Cowboys. He thinks he is the only one that can play football, and clearly, he cannot even play at the level as the other pros on his pay scale. He is all attitude and no skill.

My Cowboys watch broke the day I heard T.O. is not going anywhere by a ball :(

He was a cancer in the locker room, he had to go. The Cowboys will be better off without him. The Cowboys were a circus last year with him.

Hey - I'm not saying he's going to win any sportsmanship awards - but he's a good player and he clearly has some "issues" - beyond just being a spoiled football player.

He actually seems to have more in common with the late great Kurt Cobain than 99.9% of "normal" football players.

And as I said - he doesn't even get in trouble with the law or have a substance abuse problem. He's just a whack-job!

Yep and this guy is an atypical winner. He can win all the games except the Big One (as Eagles will know). 13-3... (They lost 2 only to injuries to TO)

And the Cowboys are just not functioning with Brad Johnson... Even the QB is doubted too... Sigh.

Ah, Terrell Owens
(I, like many Canadians, think Toronto Ontario
when I see T. O.)
