Why T.O. is one of my favorite players

The guy is just a flat-out baller. He comes to play every single down. He blocks, he can fly and he's a great receiver. Yes, he's said some stupid things like calling into question Jeff Garcia's masculinity. What he said about McNabb was flat out true. He was slow and could not get anything done in that final SB drive and it cost his team. Even Philly fans admit this calling him "Donovan McSnac."

That said, today's quote by T.O. is flat out awesome. Calling out Meshawn Johnson was fantastic. Being called out by a selfish, petulant player who was jealous of his teammates and always did not play hard is going to result in these types of quotes.

Some players say they never read the newspapers or listen to television analysts, but Dallas receiver Terrell Owens obviously isn't one of them. Owens caught some flak from ESPN's Tom Jackson, Keyshawn Johnson, and Cris Carter for his comments following the Cowboys' loss to the Redskins last Sunday, and it was Johnson in particular whom Owens set his sights on. "He is the ultimate underachiever on that panel," Owens told reporters in Dallas before reminding them that he's the reason Johnson is no longer playing in the NFL. "Everybody is aware when I was brought to Dallas he was the one they let go to get me here."

BTW, those comments were about where Romo was throwing him the ball. He was not asking for more touches or angered about his role in the offense. These guys forget how T.O. defended Romo to the point that it drove him to tears.

I'm surprised noone ever came up with a Pull-String cry baby doll of T.O. (Remember Cordell Stewart?).

In any case, there's no denying his talent as an athlete, but sometimes I feel like he needs to keep his mouth shut. Although what he sometimes says is founded in one way or another, it often leads to unnecessary attention and finger pointing. Like the old saying goes - If you don't have anything nice to say, it's often wise to not say anything at all.

wow had I not know any better I would have thought you were speaking about Hines Ward...now that's a baller...

TO is a insecure little boy in a mans body....dating all the way back to his days in SF.....how can you take this clown (and yes he is a freakin clown) serious? I mean he does his workout in his freakin driveway yrs ago after the Eagles release him, then after the Cowboys lost he gets on TV crying "That's my QB.....that's not fair"...bluh bluh.... he should do us all a huge favor and keep his mouth shut imo, the world (more so the NFL) would be better off if he did so.....

T.O. in all his glory

I love TO too and loved him on SF (I'm a HUGE 9er fan...unfortunately) and the best EVER was his 1st year with the Eagles. That was the best QB/WR combo I've seen with McNabb and Owens as far as highlights. That was the year too that the NFL allowed players to do their enzone celebrations and TOs one of the best.

I do have to admit he has very "hard hands." LOL. He must be ready for Halloween because "he loves 'em butterfingers." e

Ahaha I don't know how you find all these good videos, but they are just great!

one of the best YAC receivers in the pros. seems like he has his best games after he goes a couple of games without a lot of touches and realizes that he's not the center of the offense.
