GMs everywhere want their players to be just like him.

I'm sure GM's would love every player on their team to be the second best in the NFL at their position.

[stretch]

All right.

You win.

T.O. is a model football player.

He's picked on by the media.

It's all the media's fault.

He's an excellent role model.

GMs everywhere want their players to be just like him.

thanks for the blow job

And it's not like he got drunk and cried about wanting to kill himself on SpursTalk.

When did TSA do that?

[monosylab1k]

I just said he brings attention to himself.

IThe truth is looking at you in the face. I have no doubt that he is a good person. But, he also has a side of him that loves to be in the spotlight for some reason or another.

Peyton Manning is guilty of those things as well. He's the biggest attention in the NFL AND he's thrown teammates under the bus multiple times.

But nobody thinks of Peyton Manning as a big team cancer like they do with TO.

dunno but peewee's drunken suicide rant was some funny . one of the only times I've ever enjoyed reading The Quattro.

[O-Factor]

Are you two re ed, or just don't have any reading comprehension?

I never said that he was an asshole about that.

I just said he brings attention to himself.

I defy you to say that he wasn't bringing attention to himself about any of those things. Go ahead. Say it. Defend him.

The truth is looking at you in the face. I have no doubt that he is a good person. But, he also has a side of him that loves to be in the spotlight for some reason or another.

AND, HE BRINGS IT ALL ON HIMSELF!!!!

If he would of continued "T.O. shenanigans", as you say he has been, the I would of been one of the first Cowboy fans wanting him to get the out!

So he loves the spotlight, big ing deal. How does loving the spotlight warrant bringing unfair criticism to him during his Dallas tenure as some media types continue to do. That's why this article was a great read, because it recognized that.

The media has quite a hard on for T.O. because of his past. He was a bad teammate back then. So you are always going to see him on SportsCenter. That doesn't mean he's necessarily pulling any bull antics. I hate the way ESPN will cut to a commercial break and say something along the lines of "...and when we come back. T.O. unhappy in Dallas? Story next". Then it turns out to be nothing of the sort, just a way to get people to stay watching during commercials in hopes of seeing another "T.O. diatribe".

And I will defy you claim that he wanted to just bringing attention upon himself during his accidental overdose. Come on.

Peyton Manning attention s by making commercials for Sprint, MasterCard, DirecTV, Sony, DELL, Abercrombie, Burger King, Wal Mart, The Martha Stewart Collection: Available Exclusively at Target, Huggies, Marlboro Reds, Yankee Candles, Playboy, and Hungry Man TV Dinners (Available in Your Grocer's Frozen Food Section!), not by getting in front of the camera so people see his face. People see his face 9001 times during any NFL game, doesn't even have to be the Colts playing.

Was that the same night he threatened to kill Filmoe?

ing attention Manning!!

I am watching an illegally downloaded copy of The Love Guru, and out of nowhere this advertisement pops up in my media player with Peyton Manning and T.O., playing a very bad version of the good cop, bad cop routine, telling me that basically me downloading this one movie illegally is the sole cause of all the going on in Darfur right now.

I think I left out Gatorade in my list of Manning endorsements. Any others I forgot?

Another reason why their America's team...

haters are as obsessed with the Cowboys as much as fans.

[Whisky Dog]

I don't think thats what bothers him. Its that there are far worse things that other people do, that these critics dont care about, yet the second he does anything that is the SLIGHTEST bit controversial (such as jokingly wearing a lance armstrong suit to practice) then suddenly he is bashed on for being the worst human being alive. Its bull .

And fact is, people bash on him for being such a terrible teammate, calling him overrated, whatever... why is it that every where he goes, the QB that is throwing to him always has incredibly impressive seasons and the offense improves exponentially? Obviously he is bringing more to the table that people realize, and no one will really understand until he actually is present.

That's the point. If he truly was "TO", the guy who is going to play his ass off but lives on the edge, does edgy stuff, and doesn't give a what anyone thinks of him - then it wouldn't matter what anyone says. Critics, media, whoever. The only thing that would matter is his teammates, coaches, family, and friends. If he was really "TO" then none of that criticism would bother him at all.

It appears as though this isn't the case, and according to the article he is living a two faced life where he is this sensitive guy who puts on a giant "TO" mask and gets his feelings hurt with what the media portrays. People get into trouble when they don't be themselves and instead hide behind a social mask or persona. If he was truly "TO" he wouldn't care what anyone thought and would be happy, and if he would just go with the real Terrell Owens he wouldn't have been drawing so much attention to himself with goofy antics. He'd be much more reserved and cautious socially.

Well I think the TO haters have been around since his 49er days, but you might be right. It might be worse now that he is a cowboy.

One of my favorite TO moments

You are seriously misinformed. Im consider myself a huge fan, but a huge critic as well.

[stretch]

and he has been for a couple years now. so i dont see what more people could ask of him.

Don't try and save face, I know how you are. Your not fooling me.

I would be a huge critic of T.O. if he pulled some . And have countless times criticized the boys, especially after losses. But go ahead and try to lie about me. At least I don't lie to myself and say the texans will go 11-5, make playoffs and maybel Jacksonville will beat them once.

I dont need to lie about you. Its all the truth. Ha just like you to bring up the Texans when this is a TO discussion thread. Nice try but..FAIL!!

ther's always a reason to talk about them

That moment was a great moment in Cowboy history...it adds to their wild story.

I love the Cowboy hate...makes it fun to be a fan of them. At least people are talking about them. It would suck to be a Bills fan.

Fail? Is that all you have to say. Just like you to poke your nose in all topics Cowboys, talk weak , then say "why do you have to bring the texans in it , wah, wah, wah.

You sure do love the Cowboy don't you?
