According to multiple sources within the Dallas Cowboys, there is an emerging internal conflict involving three of the team's highest-profile stars.

As the preseason Super Bowl favorites struggle in the final month of the season to simply make the playoffs, wide receiver Terrell Owens has expressed resentment toward Tony Romo, apparently jealous of the quarterback's relationship with tight end Jason Witten.
Owens feels that Romo and Witten -- close friends and road roommates who came to Dallas in the same offseason -- hold private meetings in which they create plays the two will use in upcoming games without including Owens in the conversations, according to a source who speaks regularly with Owens' teammates. Owens believes these discussions have worked to his detriment as Romo seeks to deliver the ball to Witten regardless of whether Owens is open.

Terrell the red-faced Cowboy
always took a whining pose
and if you ever saw him
you would even say he blows

All of the other Cowboys
used to laugh and call him names
they never let poor Terrell
join in any passing games

[I Love Me Some Me]

I wouldn't go to TO in the clutch either. He drops too many balls.

[BruceBowenFan]

So ownes is mad because he wasn't in the :meeting:, and now he has cheese to go with his :whine. :lmao

I'm sure he would have at least turned around and looked to see if a pass was flying right past him.

[mexicanjunior]

It was just a matter of time...the Steeler loss was bound to start opening the flood gates of dissension on this team.

Maybe TO needs to fuckin run his routes and catch the passes. This last game really put me over the edge with him - the first interception is 100% TO's fault. Dumb fuck decided to slow down the route ... Witten rarely every fucks up his routes, throws in awesome blocks and doesn't have a tendency to drop the pass.

[cash459]

LMAO @ Owens.

People said he would be a "cancer" & divide the team....and the whole organization tried to downplay it & deny it. and wouldnt you know it, it happened.

He's over-rated as a player. His ego is too big for him

[Dirk Nowitzki]

BSPN reported it. :lmao:lmao @ anyone who thinks this is a legit story. This isnt the first time BSPN have blown stories way out of proportion.

[traitoravery]

The Cancer is spreading...

[Hank the Tank]

:lol funny how some anonymous cowboy players talked bad about TO. i'm sure the cowboys will deny it tomorrow though. i'd love to see what happens if they don't make the playoffs.

[ducks]

owen wants romo in bed?

[Trainwreck2100]

I fucking hate ESPN they showed some college players mom yelling at him on SC tues. Seriously his mom, time they could have spent showing talent on the floor they spent showing some kids mom. And today i had the misfortune of hearing Scott Van Pelt on the radio and that idiot said that it is snowing in New Orleans and the Bears should be fine cause they are used to playing in snow. I wanted to kick him through my radio.

[Anti.Hero]

Witten is the fucking man.

Time to kick TO to the curb.

[Sean Cagney]

This dude is a clown, I am sick of hearing about his whining everywhere he goes. Why can't he just shut up and play ball and try to get a ring? Crybaby.

[jack sommerset]

Who cares. Anything with T.O is blown over the top. A win Sunday this story is gone. Gossip, Gossip, Gossip.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

BSPN reported it. :lmao:lmao @ anyone who thinks this is a legit story. This isnt the first time BSPN have blown stories way out of proportion.

TO Won't even talk to them Next Question.:lmao

[IceColdBrewski]

Yep. Saw TO barking on the sidelines at the end of the Pitt game and knew that wasn't going to be the end of it.

Tried to tell Cowboy fans long ago what was in store for them, but all I heard from Cowboy fans was that everything would be wine and roses as long as he was paid enough.

He's a classic malcontent. Nothing is ever enough for the guy.

[dirk4mvp]

I thought he was all jolly and shit with his rudolph nose on.

This is just going to get worse when the Cowboys lose this week. It's very possible they don't win another game.

[dimsah]

Weird. TO started barking at McNabb due a loss to the Steelers in 04.
Now he's barking at Romo because of a loss to the Steelers in 08.

Maybe he just hates losing to the Steelers or maybe he's everything everyone said he was and money was not his actual motivation. Giant talent but I think he has a major inferiority complex and this "ego" bullshit is just a front.

[ATRAIN]

Are you guys suprised? THATS HIS QUARTERBACK!! HIS TEAMATE!!

It's not like it was a Freak thing in Philly - it had happened before there as well.

He's set his track record, he's good for a year or two - then he goes into cancer mode. It's no longer his fault when this happens - anybody knows what they are getting with him.

i didnt think/say that this is a freak incident. It just goes to show that he is an over-rated player. He whines about not getting respect & this is why.

[leemajors]

cowboys blog had a nice Parcells quote on it today:

"Losers assemble in little groups and bitch about the coaches and the system and other players in other little groups. Winners assemble as a team."

[leemajors]

i wish i could say maybe Jerry is learning something from all this, but i really doubt it.

[degenerate_gambler]

Dallas is front page news most everywhere.....he's happy.

adding onto your post - not offering a rebuttal.

[Chris]

Not a single quote from Owens on this. All I see is quotes from teammates concerning this alleged situation and old quotes from months ago. Seems like a work to me.

This is a classic ESPN hate Owens crap. Owens wants the ball more because they are not winning. So whats wrong with that he is one of their best players don't you want to get the ball in his hands. Why is it about him being selfish when he has two catches and The Cowboys win he doesn't say crap yet they lose and he wants to produce more to help. Ed Werder is a joke my sources told me that.

You're defending this douchebag? He's been thrown to more than anyone else on the team. Him crying about TO and Whitten coming up with ways to leave him out of the gameplan is him acting like a middle school girl.

i think this is TO stirring trouble but I also don't think it's as big a deal as ESPN makes it out to be. also that video is hilarious. Ed Werder is a tool

A suicide joke? Wow. That's not funny. In fact that's pretty fucked up and kinda cold hearted. The dissing and the hate is one thing but shit like that is kinda crossing the line.

[LakerHater]

Lighten up Francis!

It is true though. He failed at suicide.

[bostonguy]

True or not, it isnt funny to crack jokes about that shit.

[bostonguy]

Lighten up Francis!

How would you feel if you were close to someone who tried to commit suicide but failed and then people started making jokes about it? Then you get upset and they tell you to "lighten up". You would think that's fucked up.

[LakerHater]

I have lost a very,very close friend to suicide!!
Also 1 that has tried so, don't get your butt all hurt!!!































Lighten up Francis!!
:lmao

Seriously, how hard is suicide? It's pretty sad if one fails at that.

[Dre_7]

As a San Fran fan, all I have to say is HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :lmao

Fuck TO!

[samikeyp]

Lighten up Francis!

I have to agree. There is no bigger Cowboys fan here than me and I thought it was hilarious.

Making fun of some troubled kid is one thing, making fun of a drama queen like T.O. is another and, IMO, he is fair game with the actions he brings on himself.

You are the male version of duncan228. I fucking swear you are too god damn nice and calm and badass with anything and everything. Are you her brother? Dont lie to me dawg. :nope

Nice try it was Witten's Agent and TO went off on him today for letting his agent bring this to ESPN.

When they crush the Gmen tomorrow this will just fade away watch Owens he will have a big game.

[LakerHater]

He might....
but if he doesn't, WHOA.. watch out!!!!!!!!!!

[Vinnie_Johnson]

He might....
but if he doesn't, WHOA.. watch out!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah your right The Cowboys win or this whole thing blows up big time.

[jack sommerset]

If I want to watch Desperate Housewives I would watch it instead I want to watch Football but when I turn on ESPN nowadays its like sitting in my Grandmas dinning room durning her bridge tournament. ESPN has turned into the Oxygen channel. Man up bitches and quit listening to what a thousand reporters said happened in a "private meeting". Clean ur cunts out.,

[IceColdBrewski]

:lol at people blaming this on some sort of media conspiracy.

Yeah, it's all the media's fault that TO is a selfish, finger-pointing douchebag who creates team turmoil wherever he goes.

There's a reason TO refused to play in Baltimore when the 9ers traded him there. Because he knows damn well that Ray Lewis would've ordered the code red on his ass at the first sign of trouble.

Fuck Owens and fuck Jerry Jones. I'm sick of being a Cowboys fan.

[Anti.Hero]

Wearing a chain during a game, what a douchebag.

Owens just served the media a nice cup of shut the fuck up. Like I said earlier in this thread, this was a work. lol @ bitter Eagles fan ^^^^ See you in 2 weeks.

[mytespurs]

TO's act, much like TO, is getting old!!!! :p:

[dirk4mvp]

The win served as a cologne. It'll cover the smell up for a little while. Then it'll go back to smelling like shit.
