no he didnt, peole are way over reacting to this. TO is actually a good person whether you hate him or not. He has no trouble with the law or drugs or any of that stuff that sooo many other nfl players get into. THere are also tons of other players who dispute contracts, and majority of them dont have half the talent he does. I am a big TO supporter mainly because he gets hated on WAY too much, and he doesnt deserve it.

Why is there all this hoopla for saying TO is a distraction to the team because of this incident. He didnt do anything wrong. He went to the ****ing hospital. He didnt shoot anybody, or hit people with cars, or dui like countless others. He didnt beat up his wife, or have sex with underaged midgets. Why is people making a big deal about this?
Thats exactly what im talking about, ESPN, ESPNEWS is all over this story, its so ridiculous. Did I ever mention that I cant stand "mort", aside from his frivolous reporting, the guy is constantly bashing T.O. He definitely isnt a specialist and hes always getting reports wrong, and he always does it with this jerky smerk on his face, I dont see why they have him on there.
In the end T.O. is going to recover from this injury but I fear this "suicide" talk is never going to die down. Even when people know he cleary did not try to kill himself.
So he tried to kill himself, and failed.****er can't get anything right.
Like this guy

Because people hate Paris Hilton. The girl doesn't do anything extraordinary and somehow is always in the news. Except for the traffic stop, she doesn't break the law or get into trouble. Plus, they both look like horses. Bottom line, common people look for ways to hate on celebrities the media chooses to exploit. It makes them feel better about themselves.
Hell, look at the chick in my sig. She didn't do anything wrong, and all I'm doing is dissing her. Even though there's an inside story about it, yes, I feel better about myself.
ehhh...my biggest gripe against T.O is he isn't a team player, and he can't take criticism at all...sure people make a big deal about him when he does something "news worthy", and i'm sure thats what T.O wants or else he wouldn't do half the shit he does, but the people who defend him make just a big deal about him justifing his actions.

I know I know.
But this isnt the common people, its the sports media. They should know better to report this as a news story rather than the typical TO casuing distractions for the team
Im just going by Sportscentre, Off The Record, and a couple of other shows that discuss whats happening in the world of sports and what they're saying is that TO is causing an distraction on the team for doing this "stunt", even though it wasnt an stunt, it wasnt for publicity concerns or any other hairbrain TO idea to get more money. TO didnt mean to do this.
And thats the bottom line, TO is getting all this shit because of who he is before, and not what he has done this year. It's all the media bullshit.
One quesiton though?
Has TO himself caused a distraction to the Cowboys, or has the media used TO to make an distraction up?
Has there been talk that TO has actually did what he did in Philly to the Cowboys?
I think not.
God, I can't believe I'm discussing this. puke
Parcells is still taking the right approach with Owens. Referring to him as "The Player" is cute and all, but he's allowed himself several options depending on if anything happens with Owens - and nothing's happened yet. By not committing to a stance (both Parcells and Jones), it's going to take something really, really big for them to explode...and I seriously doubt that's going to happen at all.

Oh really, maybe you should take the media's dick from your ass and actually make an observation yourself? Instead of taking everything they say.
Because of whole point is that your wrong.
On other note, I think your right Bot, nothing really is going to happen in Dallas this year. TO wont explode anything.
I love how people hate TO sooo much, but not hate any other player that commits actual crimes like beating up thier wife, DUI, rob a store....but what a minute, TO made fun of his QB....what a bad person.
Instead Gregory should say Chris Henry of the Bengals should take his own life for doing bad things.
This is amazing,
Some stations are reporting that Bill Parcells is looking @ Jerry Jones and saying "I told you so". 0_o
The only scenario that I can think of that Bill Parcells should say that to Jerry Jones is if he predicted before the season that after week 3 T.O. would have a broken finger and be hospitalized because of an adverse reaction to pain killers. That's it, If Parcells predicted this would happen then he can say that but otherwise stfu because T.O. isnt "distracting" the team and if he is it sure isnt intentional.

How, exactly, am I supposed to make observations about TO myself? Fly over to the hospital, break in, and steal the patient records? Kidnap him and perform an autopsy?
And I'm not saying that TO should kill himself, just that I'd be vaguely amused if he did. All that shrieking, all that fuss, all that grief, and then, bam! It's all rendered completely obsolete. I wouldn't be out on the streets celebrating, but it might at least give some people a little perspective...

Yea, in that regard TO is a good person, he doesnt beat women, get DUI's, rob stores whatever, but there are a ton of players like that and aren't as selfish as TO... players like LT, Marvin Harrison, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, the list goes on

dressing up in a biking tights and a biking helmet and riding an excerise bike while eveyone else on your team is busting there ass on drills and practicing isnt a distraction?

By thinking. By reading more than just one article, or read articles that dont have a bias towards hating TO.
Wutu, I know. I'm not condoning what he has done, I'm just saying that people criticize him so horribly compared to other players who do alot worst things.
All I think of TO is an disgruntled employee, the type you have at work where you know he is good, but hate working with him.

he was injured..
About that, I dont like how Parcells handled that situation, did he not believe T.O. was injured? Evidently a lot of other people didnt either, but every situation T.O. has been in this year has been blown WAY out of porportion. He hasnt done anything wrong.
The point isnt if he was injured or not, it was him being a distraction from the team, but I'll play along anyways......
He was injured so that justifies his actions for dressing like some Lance Armstong clown that rides a bike, when other Cowboys who have injuries worse than a hamstring cramp are practicing? Do you seen anyone else with sore hamstrings pull shit like that, of course not, so you don't like the way Parcells handled that situation, maybe if TO wouldnt act like an ass, Parcells wouldn't be in those kind of situations....he has a sore hamstring and he can't practice, but he breaks his hand and he can play in games, go figure.
Yeah, but if TO had that sore hamstring during the regular season, he would of still played.
THe thing is, nonbody knows exactly what is happening in the Dallas Cowboys locker room. FOr all we know, Parcell told him not to practice.
But Hines Ward, Steve Smith both had hamstring injuries and both didnt practice alot either.

uhh he didnt draw any extra attention with the lance armstrong gear than he already had...if you recall the media was already ridin his tail before he ddi that.
