DMN: Blog: T.O.: 'I'm still not satisfied'

Seven · Nov 25, 2008

I think he should shut the pie-hole, grovel in self-pity at home, seize the moment and stop with the 'I am what football is' crap. And I don't mean that in a negative way.

[/U]You didn't think one big game would be enough to make T.O. happy, did you?

I hope every single player and coach on the team feels the same way.

Once you're satisfied you stop improving.

There was an artist who finished a painting. He stepped back from it, looked it over, and started to cry. A woman passing by noticed and she said to him, "it's beautiful. Aren't you satisfied with it?"

The artist replied, "that's the problem, I am satisfied."

Hunger in a football player is what we need.

I would aver that if he went away, Romo could play like he should and would spread the ball all over the field without worrying about who got what.

Actually Romo already spreads the ball all over the field without worrying about who gets it. He goes to TO a lot because of his talent. I don't believe that he is forcing the ball to TO like people say. He threw 3 TDs to 3 different receivers on Sunday. He goes through his progressions and hits the open man. He is getting more comfortable with Roy Williams and will surely start finding him more. And when Witten is healthy, he is Romo's security blanket, not TO. When a guy is capable of pulling down 213 yards for you, you'd be foolish not to look for him, but the perception that he is forcing the ball to him is false.

People are complaining about this? THIS has been the problem with this very team. We get content and try to coast our way through situations. That doesn't work in this league.

This isn't a matter of "I love me some me". This is a guy who is trying to send a statement to his team.

But whatever...I'm sure many will disagree with this. No matter what...

GO COWBOYS!

I couldn't agree more with these posts. However, it doesn't do it for me when it's self-absorbed. Coming from anyone else, I'd label this legit. I'm curious to his devotion with a SB ring as compared to individual fluff. JMO, of course...........

From the article:

And, after some prodding, T.O. said a Super Bowl win would be satisfying

Yeah, winning a superbowl is just so incredibly self-absorbed.

Sorry, there's plenty of stuff to complain about with TO, but this isn't one of them.

If we all listen very closely T.O is doing the right thing actually. This team needs to improve every game from here on out and one of their leaders sounding satisfied because of one game isn't going to contribute to that mentality.

In regards to Jason Witten snickering, he said "that's what makes him the player he is". Witten doesn't BS and that snickering is more for the reporters than in regards to T.O. He's snickering because it's the same BS with the media and they just don't seem to get why T.O has been so successful throughout his career. Witten understands though and enlightened them by saying what he said.

T.O being hungry is exactly what we need and I want it to trickle throughout the rest of that locker room. I want a bunch of guys who want opportunity and have the big picture of winning games, the Super Bowl in the back of their heads. Our defense is starting to look hungry, Ratliff is absolutely starving and T.O is just a nasty monster right now. He's letting the opposition know you better game plan for him because he is going to terrorize you. A mean nasty monster, we need it. By the way, his touchdown in the game, Romo was absolutely huge but T.O was nothing short of that either and no one was going to take him down before the end zone. T.O wanted a TD there and nothing but.

:laugh2: our Offense always starts slow because we look to get T.O. involved so he doesn't throw a tantrum. Romo needs to man up and start spreading it around more. mainly getting more in sync with #11

Whatever.

I like T.O. but I definately won't shed a tear when he is gone.

why? because T.O. brings a "I want to win" or "no performance is good enough" attitude to this team?

you're right. shame on T.O....

TO shouldn't be satisfied when you get satisfied you become complacent and don't try to improve.....We need guys that are hungry like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!

probably because they double and tripled up on T.O. BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE A TRUE #2 RECIEVER!!!

Crayton isn't a #2 and Austin isn't a big name yet. therefore, they could just double up on T.O. and take him out of the game.

learn the game of football, then come back when you know what you're talking about.
