Terrell Owens was on Dallas morning radio this week when he was asked to play a few rounds of word association. He attempted to pass when the name "Tony Romo" was thrown his way, but, of course, the always-vocal Owens had his say. "With that situation, dude, I've kind of lost my respect for that situation," Owens said. "Man, that's a guy I shed tears for, I went to bat for. Then obviously, ultimately I'm not in Dallas anymore and I know he definitely had a hand in that. So, again, it's one of those things that you kind of just have to bite your tongue and keep moving on, you know what I mean?" Speaking out against a former teammate and blaming him for your troubles isn't exactly "biting your tongue." Then again, to hear Owens tell it, that's probably what got him axed from Dallas in the first place. "I just happened to be one of those guys that really voiced my opinion," he continued. "I wasn't the only one who thought that way. There were games that other guys were open. I wasn’t saying that to get the ball thrown to me a lot more times. I wasn’t saying that to get the ball thrown to me a lot more times. I was all about winning." Source: Comcast Sports
And I thought that he was improving enough that he was willing to take responsibility for his actions. What was I thinking?
To be fair, Terrell did interrupt the ever exciting Romo-to-Witten dump off that occurs 10+ times a game we have grown to love...
If he's going to cite culprits one by one as to the reason he's not with the Cowboys or the NFL anymore, I'm going to get some popcorn and sit on the sofa. This could take a while.
