    Since Terrell Owens was released by the Seattle Seahawks last August, it seems he is only in the news when an NFL team clarifies that it has no interest in the poster child for diva wide receivers.

    Now 39 years old and likely done as an NFL player, Owens is taking up a new sport.

    Owens made his semi-professional bowling debut this week, rolling games of 185, 129 and 161 for a 475 series in the United States Bowling Congress Open Championship.

    As the celebrity owner of the Dallas Strikers, one of eight five-player teams in the new Professional Bowlers Association League, Owens has spent a lot of time around the lanes this year. He recently decided to take his game up a notch, working with several coaches and PBA bowlers.

    "I have a lot of stuff going on right now, but there happened to be a break in my schedule," Owens told Bowl.com. "I wanted to experience this tournament, and the experience was good. I'm really into bowling, and I like it a lot."

    Owens worked out with Tom Brady at USC last month. A couple weeks later, Owens made it clear that he's keeping himself in shape "just for any opportunity that may come about."

    If I ever saw these two "announcers" within 5 feet of my reach I would freaking punch both the "comedians" in their respective mouths...

    185/129/161?

    Hell, I bowled that in my 20s when I realized I sucked at it even just as a recreational thing...

    My average was 267 when I used to bowl. I could still do that now. But good for Owens to pick up something else.

    My grandma bowls in a local league and averages like 215.

    TO should just build an underground lair and never leave. He's not good at anything.
