What do you think of T.O Being a dallas cowboy?





P.S Watch 24!

 

[Soulfly]

I think it's awesome. He will fit right in with Dallas. That city expects greatness, and I know he will be happy with the amount of attention he's going to get.

T.O. = Attention =

T.O. = Happy =

Happy T.O. = Cowboys a contender.

 

[Tickle Fiend]

I love it. Im excited and can't wait for the season to begin. I believe T.O. will do great and prove his doubters wrong.

 

[gargoyleofdusk]

I am no longer a Cowboys fan.
Started with Keyshawn, now they have a bigger ego to deal with.
Now T.O.? We are done...you know he'll piss off Purcells, and Bledsoe.

 

[slacker2114]

Like I said in another thread....take the SOB to Dallas and put a muzzle on him so I don't have to hear the news flooded with TO drama. I hate players like him. All that talent and the attitude to match. Fits right in with jackasses like Keyshawn, Warren Sapp, Ray Lewis and Bill Romanowski. And after this past season, I may be adding TJ Houshmanzadah to my 'guys who run their mouths too damn much' list.

Enjoy him while he's happy, Dallas fans.

Keyshawn is a jackass why? What did he do in Dallas that made him a jackass. You don't even know the man. What about all the other extra things he does that he doesnt have to do to benefit the less fortunate? T.O. was fine in San Fran until the last year or two. They've said he was a great teammate and has a great work ethic. It was even said by his teammates in Philly. What's wrong with wanting to win? He's made mistakes, so have others. I'm going to give him a chance. I felt even before Dallas was obviously going to sign him that wherever he went he would be fine and put all of this in the past. I believe he can but other people can't. I to was tired of the T.O. news all the time last season but it was their choice to air it. He sounded sincere today and I could care less about anything he said when he went to Philly. I will ride with the 'boys until the end. I'm tired of people saying they aren't Cowboy fans anymore because T.O. has been signed. I have heard a lot of this today and the past few days. I hope that those people who chose not to be a Cowboy fan anymore move on and never come back no matter what happens. I also hope that Cowboys fans who have doubts, which of course are reasonable, will give the man a chance and not wait for him to "fail."

What started with Keyshawn? Keyshawn had a falling out with Tampa and came to the Cowboys and what? Nothin. He played well and didn't cause any "controversy." T.O. is 32. This will be his lat stop. By time his contract runs out he will be 36. His time is coming to a close within the next 3 or so years. He wants to win and if you listened to his words today, not read, then you could hear his sincerity. Just stop complaining. We are fans and things may not always go the way we want but it's no need to ever quit on a team. No player could ever cause me to quit a team that I love.

 

[slacker2114]

Ok, let me clarify myself...

My dislike of Keyshawn goes all the way back to when he played for the Jets. See, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the hard-luck Jets, so I usually rooted for them. I also liked Wayne Chrebet, who did not get along with Keyshawn. Johnson ran his own teammate down non-stop, and REALLY ran his mouth when he went to Tampa. Then the Jets had to play the Bucs and all week before the game, Keyshawn ran down the Jets and especially Chrebet. When asked about his feelings, Wayne simply replied "I'll do my talking on the field". That gameday, Keyshawn basically did nothing the whole game and Chrebet caught the winning touchdown pass in the final seconds of the game. Not a word came out of Keyshawn's mouth on the subject, no matter how much he was asked.

Players that talk trash is ok, it even makes the game more interesting. But when you want to call out names like he did, even when he was on the same team, that's no-class in my book. That made me lose all respect for Johnson to this day.

Now TO...one of my problems is I basically get all the Philly area news where I live, so all I could hear when sports came on was about TO said this and that. It got old fast. I remember a friend of mine was excited when TO was first signed to the Eagles and I had told him then that he was going to be a problem. Now in all fairness, after TO got his contract with the Eagles, TO switched to a different agent. The former agent was getting paid his percentage for the contract, but the new one was getting nothing. The new agent is the one that was pushing TO to demand more money so he could get a cut. However, that does not excuse all the mouth-running he did, including running down the fans. That was the wrong thing to do. Talk to anyone, players or fans of anyone but the Eagles, about which stadium they hated to go to the most and they'd all say without hesitation 'Philly'. Eagles fans are loyal to a fault, fights even breaking out just because someone was wearing something non-Eagles to a game. Philly fans are INSANE! So to run down the fans was a big mistake. Then to verbally attack your QB and your coach, and there was even a rumor of a fistfight between former Eagle Hugh Douglas, then you've become nothing but a problem.

Honestly, I hope things work out for him in Dallas. He is without a doubt one of the best receivers of all time and it would be a shame to see his career go to waste. But I'm just hoping he keeps the drama to himself if there is any. I don't want to hear about TO going head to head with Parcells.

Even if T.O. doesn't cause any drama he'll still be in the news no matter what happens. They'll have stories about him succeding in Big D and they'll try to find anything to say "I told you so."

 

[slacker2114]

No doubt, Fiend, no doubt at all. The sports media is also partly to blame for the whole TO/Philly thing in that they plastered every little thing he said. And I'm sure some of it was taken out of context. But he did make the comment to McNabb "I'm not the one who got tired in the 4th quarter" referring to their Super Bowl loss.

TO said it, the media blew it up and hounded every Eagles player ad nauseum over the whole thing and it just got very annoying. Now Parcells is a no-nonsense kind of coach, so hopefully, nothing will be said to make him and TO butt heads. But yeah, the media will be harping about it, especially when the Cowboys play the Eagles this coming season.

 

[falconfan]

I like T.O alot and i like how hey said those's things to phil.

 

[ticklingfeet4fu]

Terrell Owens will create problems for Dallas fans as he has everywhere else. It is his nature. He will NEVER grow up. The reason Keyshawn did not create problems in Dallas is that he was coached by Bill Parcells for 3 years. I think he respects Parcells and wouldn't do anything to upset that. Terrell has no respect for ANYONE ( and please don't tell me I don't know him ). If you can rip teammate publicly and the coach as well you have NO RESPECT for authority. I really question how long it will take for Parcells to get tired of that Owens character and bench him. Parcells will NEVER stand for what Andy Reid did. I do have a couple of questions though, it was stated that Owens wants to win, who does not want to win??? And if he wanted to win so bad then why did he create the problems he did a year ago? He wanted MONEY!!! The MONEY was MORE IMPORTANT than winning. That is Owens bottomline. Now that he is getting his money maybe he will buy himself a MUZZLE!!!

T.O. is one of the top two receivers in the league. Why shouldn't he have wanted more money? Would you work for anything less than your market value?

Considering the fact that he makes MILLIONS of dollars and I don't what would you like me to compare that too??? If I recall, Joe Namath didn't make millions of dollars in this sport nor did Bradshaw or Unites or Dawson. To my knowledge neither did Riggins, Dorsett or Campbell. What makes Crybaby Owens better than them??? What is the matter??? Can't feed himself on $5,000,000 a year??? I would play the game for $50,000 a year. And, at least, I would show the fans MORE HEART than Crybaby Owens and the rest of these prima donnas. I might not play like Owens but I would give the fans a 1000% effert and I would play and never threaten the fans or the team that I would purposely ruin their season as Crybaby did last year in Philadelphia. Or are they all Divas these days. I know Crybaby IS a diva.

I'm saying would you work for less than you are worth? Yeah you can't compare you salary to his but who can? Different occupations command different salaries. If your talent or experience commands such a high number why work for less? I wish I could earn the minimum salary in the NFL but we don't play sports. And T.O. did give Philly his all on the field. Took them to the Super Bowl and outplayed every receiver on the team combined(even this year he outplayed them in seven games). When he and McNabb were having there "no speaking" period he went out there and did his job, did it damn well too. No one has ever questioned T.O.'s work ethic, it's all about off the field stuff. He had problems in Philly but there were other people involved. T.O. had some teammates on his side as did McNabb so he must not have been too wrong. And T.O. is one of the greatest receivers of all time. Don't know if you can really compare two different positions but, in my opinion, T.O. is better than a lot of those old guys you mentioned, but they were great too. Players back in their day didn't make the money players do today but it's probably the equivalent to their salaries.

HE DID NOT take Philly to the Super Bowl. How many catches prior to the Super Bowl did he catch in the playoffs??? Answer that for me. How many catches did he have in the last 4 games of the regular season did he have??? Do your research and PLEASE get back to me. I would love to hear the response. 😎

Without him they went to three straight NFC Championship games and lost them all. T.O. joins the team and finally gives them a receiver to throw to and they had the best season in team history. Their offense ranked higher with T.O. and this year, well you can guess what happened. And they actually only won two games without T.O., both in the playoffs. T.O. got hurt in week 15 against Big D and they lost their last two games of the regular season and still finished 13-3. T.O. came back from the injury and kept carrying them in the Super Bowl when no one else stepped up. Do you remember how productive the Eagles receivers were the year before T.O. If not, pay close attention to how well they play this upcoming season and you'll find out.

 

[primetime]

it's funny, TO signs with Dallas and the Cowboy fans sing his praises. word of advice Cowboy fans...

TO is a tremendous receiver. any team that has him has a phenom at receiver. BUT, he will "behave" his first year in Dallas. he will say all the right things, he will get a bunch of stats and Cowboy fans will sit back and tell the masses "SEE!!! TO isnt such a bad guy!".

then if the Cowboys lose in the playoffs because Drew Bledsoe didnt throw him the ball and Bledsoe throws another pick to end the game, TO WILL show his true self. history folks, HISTORY.

in SF, he had one of the greatest catches of all time. his winning TD catch against Green Bay elevated him to superstar status. he followed Jerry Rice and now he was the undisputed #1 receiver in SAN FRANCISCO, a 5 time SuperBowl winner. ask yourself, why isnt he in SF anymore?

then he goes to Philly, says McNabb and him are best friends and they are a perfect match. fans love him, he smiles and TO is Philly's #1 loved guy. TO gets hurt, the Eagles WIN WITHOUT TO and still make the SuperBowl, however he plays magnificently in the Superbowl, but they lose. now ask yourself, why isnt he in Philly anymore?

it is only a matter of time. enjoy the 2006 season. but believe me, he will show his true colors again. find this thread in the future and you will sit back and think, "gee, they were right."

as for Keyshawn Johnson. i HAVE MET THE MAN and he is an asshole. i am still hoping he breaks his leg, ending his season. i cant stand him and watching him run his mouth and producing nothing is wonderful. he was the #1 draft pick, but yet, he isnt anywhere near the top of outstanding receivers. he is now a ROLE player. TO and Keyshawn are one in the same, except TO is a much better athlete.

So if they won both playoff games without him in the lineup then he DID NOT get them to the Super Bowl. Am I right or am I wrong??? How do you say he carried them to the Super Bowl if he did not play??? That is like saying that Troy Aikman lead you to the Super Bowl in 1977 when he did not play ( but then again maybe he did. I am sure he was cheering on the Cowboys from his living room. ) It is stupid to think because he was on the team that he made the difference when he did not play. You lead a team when you are on the field. Not when you are not playing. If that is the scenerio then Donovan McNabb had NOTHING to do with leading the Eagles to the Super Bowl. It was all because of the guy on crutches. He did it. He threw the ball. He caught the ball. He made tackles from the sidelines. I forgot only one man plays a team game. My bad.

Scary thought Primetime!!! We agree again. I agree with EVERY SINGLE WORD in this post. By the way, great sig pic. Not a big fan of Deion but a VERY good player. Nice touch primetime.

 

[primetime]

i know, we are agreeing again. i guess we see "eye to eye" in football. NBA is a whole different matter..lol.

this T.O. thing will blow up once again. the man is what he is. a selfish athlete. a great athletic talent, but he epitomizes the world "selfish", thru his actions and his words.

as for the sig pic, i sure wish Deion stayed in SF. ah, the good ol' days...

 

[stloldg]

I say Parcells will take Owens in the pre-season, by the half way mark of the season Owens will be ready to quit.

if this happens, if that happens....no one knows what will happen...u cant assume because TO had a falling out in Philly it will fall the same in Dallas. I never have hated T.O. or any other receiver most of you people hate. I felt T.O. would do fine where ever he went and still do. There are Cowboys fans who want T.O. and a lot who dont so its not everyone "singing his praises." Why can't we be happy we have the best best WR in the game on our team without people who are convinced and hope that T.O. fails and causes trouble in Big D? You can't judge someone you don't know. You could have met Keyshawn but it's not like you sat and talked while having lunch. If you meet a celebrity for five mintues and they are nice that doesnt mean they're that way all the time. I hope T.O. does damn well, proves people who doubt him wrong, and lives his lfe. He sounded very sincere yesterday and I can't wait for the 06 season

Two games that T.O. doesn't mean he didn't carry them. He played in 14 other games and WAS THERE ENTIRE OFFENSE. T.O. is the reason McNabb had the increased numbers he did. T.O. is the reason the Eagles offensive production and rankings went into the top 10 and top 5. T.O. came and they started out undeafeated for a while. Got the best record they will ever get. He was brought in because they knew what he could do and he did it. Without T.O. they didnt get to the Superbowl. If T.O. hadn't played in the Superbowl he got them to, the Patroits would have killed the Eagles. Other players contributed but T.O. was the Michael Jordan of the 2004 Philadelphia Eagles.

T.O. has never quit, never will. He isn't Randy Moss, he doesn't take off plays.
