Terrell Owens is all about telling the truth, but I guess we know this already.
So then the following clip from his locker room interview today shouldn't at all shocking...
Terrell Owens keeps it real
I want to thank the 49ers for their defensive gameplan first of all.
Then I want to tell Jason Garrett to keep working on ways to get this guy the football because although he talks too much he is still a big part of what the Cowboys do on offense.
As for his getting bumped at the line. I still say he's lost some of his quickness, but not any of his top end speed or any of his strength. He will still put up huge numbers if they can get him in motion and if the offensive line gives Romo enough time to make some plays.
T.O. took a lot of time today to talk to a bunch of different people in the media, read here.
I just don't know if Garrett is going to be on board with keeping an aging WR around who is prone to talk out in the media when he's unhappy if he takes over as the head coach next season. And you just can't discount the idea that Roy Williams is the future in Dallas as the #1 WR at some point. Then you have to also take into account that there are plenty of other weapons on this offense who aren't always crying for the football. Throw in the fact that Jerry isn't afraid to go spend money in Free Agency and I can't see how you can guarantee me that Terrell Owens is a Dallas Cowboy beyond 2008.
Garrett will be looking to put his signature on this team when he gets the job and he is probably going to be thinking about keeping it for a long, long time so the last thing he wants is a guy on the roster who criticizes his performance. That's going to be an interesting scenario if it does play out that way next season.

Here's an exchange between Owens and reporters regarding Garrett.
Are you and Garrett OK?
"I mean, I'm fine."
Is Garrett OK with you?
"I don't know. Ask him. I think the rapport is cool. I don't feel like there's any dissension or tension or anything in our relationship."
You didn't offend him by bashing his system?
"I haven't said anything. He hasn't said anything to me."
Can you see why he might be perturbed?
"I don't know you have to ask him because I know what y'all are trying to get from me. So, ask him."
This is a little annoying to me. Why can't he just say that it's all good. Now I know he isn't saying it's bad, but it seems like he is posturing a little as if to say that he's fine and he could care less if Jason Garrett isn't happy with his recent comment to Deion.Are you and Garrett OK?
