I think its stupid because he wont make any money because nonbody in thier right mind will buy them, but its not stupid for him trying it to make money. That's life.
If somebody in your group of friends decided to make extra money by trying to write childrens books, would you think its stupid and greedy or being smart?
None of my friends make millions of dollars. I think it is greedy if any sports player decides to do anything else to make more money for themselves, unless they are retired.

I seen that too. I was actually thinking that whole game before he actually said it. Why in the hell is he there? I dont know why he went to Dallas, Bledsoe is god awful and Parcells is not the right coach for T.O. I would have rather him go to a team with a good QB that can get him the ball when hes open, and can put it in his hands, and actually looks his way, instead of just lobbing the ball up to him when they get pressure in there face.
Bledsoe isnt helping the situation anymore by coming out and saying that Terry Glenn is his #1 wide reciever, but it is a reasonable explanation as to why he only looks his way during most of the game.

See Im the exact opposite. Start bashing players when they rob banks, not when they write childrens books.

I'm not bashing him because he writes book. I just think it is greedy. I have plenty of other reasons to bash T.O.
No, but I think its morally wrong to act like a deuchebag and TO has been known to act like one of those from time to time...besides, when your making 20 million dollars how much more money do you need?...I mean I really dont care, I'm just sayin.

What makes you think any of the "good" QBs want him on there team. It's a safe bet to say players like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning(two players who also don't rob banks) and any other proven QB don't want TO on there team.
The thing is that he only acts like a duechebag in football. Outside of football, he creates no problems at all while other players like Chris Henry who doesnt get cause problems on the field, but decides to alot of bad shit outside of work gets nothing.
Being a douchebag at work isnt morally wrong. What is morally wrong is football players who hold up liqour stores, hit people in cars, drive intoxicated and have assault charges... but you never see people call them greedy or morally wrong.
But a guy who talks shit about his team or start up a business writing childrens books is the one being called greedy and morally wrong.
I guess it goes to show fans on what the value more in life

A deuchebag is a duechebag, Just because TO is a duechebag in the locker room doesnt make it morally right. Good for TO that he doesnt rob liquor stores or break the law, but that doesn't justify his actions on the field, you dont see LT, Tom Brady, Urlacher, Marvin Harrison, or any other great football players with good morals use the "but i'm a good person off the field" excuse so they can be a deuche on the field, thats because they're respectable and are actually professional on and off the field. Yea, they're dumb players out there who do stupid shit, and some of them actually learn from there mistakes and not make them again, and some are just idiots that keep repeating themselves, but like I said before, a respected professional doesn't do stupid shit off the field, or in the locker room. TO is notorious for repeatdly doing stupid shit in the locker room
I'm not comparing TO to Brady or any other player like that. I know that TO isnt a very nice person when it comes down to playing football.
All I'm saying is that people regard TO as the lowest person in football when they're are countless others who do some really bad shit in real life, but because it doesnt effect the team, people turn the other way. But TO on the otherhand hasnt done anything, people would be his head on an stake. I'd bet if TO started doing charity work, people would assume he's doing it for the benefit of looking nice.
If Chris Henry decided to write childrens books, would you have people saying all this shit about him or would they be saying, "thats good, he's turning his life around."

This has public relations shit written all over it.
🤨 That vato is seriously full of himself. Since when does being a good WR make you God? All he does is catch balls for a living, and he acts like he's the guy who discovered a cure for AIDS.

How in the hell do you know this????
I like when people think they know T.O.
If you didnt know better, you would think they're psychics. I just L.O.V.E. how people just knew he wasnt injured.
And to tell you the truth, outside of football, T.O's life is really none of our business

1. Its called commone sense
2. Oh, you must know him than, since everything you say about him is clearly for him you two must be regular buds. Tell him I said hi.
3. How do you know he was injured? I "L.O.V.E" (whats up with the dots?) how you are just as one sided as most of the TO haters.
4. Well if TO outside of football is none of our business, than maybe you should stop bitching about other players getting D.U.I.s and breaking laws because its outside of football so that must be none of our business as well.

I think its safe to say TO already does charity work, most NFL players do, with all his money you would hope he would anyways. I dont know about Chris Henry, like i said some people learn from there mistakes, and othere people are just idoits who keep repeating themselves. I guess its up to him to see how the publics is gonna respond, but i dont go by the publics opinion, i go by mine.

I said absoulutely nothing about other players getting DUI, I have no idea where you got that from.

Maybe because he said he was injured, along with doctors.
Oh, you must know him than, since everything you say about him is clearly for him you two must be regular buds. Tell him I said hi.
Actually Im basing my info off what he says. Not what you say, not what a commentator/analyst says, just him.
1. Its called commone sense
What's called common sense?
Common sense he wasnt actually injured?
You're a fool. More like a biased opinion. If you dont think he was injured then you should take it up with the team doctors.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: T.O -The american public don't buy into his crap

What the hell are you talkin about? Doctors cleared him to play/practice when he pulled his hammy, and he did neither, claiming he was still hurt, doctors said he wasnt hurt.
Actually Im basing my info off what he says. Not what you say, not what a commentator/analyst says, just him. .
Ok, well atleast you admit your biased for him, you probaly didnt mean to do that, but you just did.

Your're an idoit, common sense that no good proven QB would want TO on his team because he would f*ck up team chemistry, and again doctors cleared him to play/practice in the preseason, which he didn't except for maybe like two plays if that. Maybe you should stop now because your really makin an ass out of yourself.

Hey buddy Im not the one that started this argument. Sure Im biased towards T.O., he is my favorite player, Ill admit that, but you sure as hell are biased against T.O.
And the doctors never cleared him to play, he didnt need any clearance. The injury wasnt serious but he didnt want to aggrevate it.

Dude, dont pull a TO and cry about me starting an argument with you, all I did was disagree and say why I disagree, and i even did so in a respectable manner until you heated things up. You've done the same thing minus the respectable part.
I've shown no such thing as being biased...I;ve admitted that TO is tough, thats he's a great player, and that the media overblows alot of what he does, and at the same time i point out his selfishness, overtremendous ego, and ability to be a cancer for the teams he plays for. If you say thats being biased than you must be blind.
And yea, the doctors did clear him to play, they checked out his hamstring and said it was ok for him practice/play.
