T.O. Heading to Buffalo

Recently wide reciver Terrell Owens was cut by the Dallas Cowboys, and just a couple of days later he signed with the Buffalo Bills as a free-agent. I feel as though T.O. has been given a bad rap for most of the things that went wrong not only in Dallas, but Phildephia, and San Fransico as well.

Put aside the image of T.O. doing push-ups in his driveway outside his image, what else really makes him so insufferable? People talk about how Terrell was a nusiance in Dallas, and I ask how so? The haters cannot name one thing Terrell did wrong in Big-D. Oh yeah, I can't forget Terrell having an allegeric reaction to some medication he was taking. Heaven forbid anyone getting sick, right.

I remember him having a few loud outbursts on the sidelines, but Anquan Boldin has had some too, and so have quite a few other players, but I guess in all those other instances the acts were justified. Maybe people are angered about Terrell going into coach Jason Garrett's office to talk about how the wide recievers were not being used enough. That's the story that was leaked to the press, but I'm pretty sure he's not the first star athlete to complain a time or two to his coaching staff about plays.

Terrell never responds to his critics, which is always a good thing because it seems as if none of it would matter. Now Owens has faded to oblivion, otherwise known as the Buffalo Bills, and once again everyone is expecting the worst.

But I'm not one of them. Just get off his back once in a while. I know sometimes T.O. can cause haedaches, but lets be fair Dallas was a circus show before he got there, and it will continue to be one after he's gone. Phildephia has never been the same since his departure, and Donovan McNabb is again craving another wide-out with just half the skills Terrell posess. And lets not even talk about San Fransico. Bottomline is that Terrell Owens brings results, and I will kill to have him on this Chicago Bears team in a second.

So ladies and gentlemen in Buffalo, get your popcorn ready, because it is going to be a show.
