T.O. no comments on Furrey's star bustin'

5:48 PM Wed, Dec 05, 2007
Tim MacMahon


T.O. is one of the all-time great touchdown celebrators, so I figured I'd ask him about Lions WR Mike Furrey's star-bustin' antics at Texas Stadium last season.

"I didn't pay any attention to it," T.O. said. "I don't know who that is."

In an attempt to be helpful, I gave T.O. a brief recap of Furrey firing a spiral into the decorative star, cracking that sucker. For some reason, the Original 81 didn't seem interested in continuing the conversation.

"Dude," he said while walking away from his locker, "you're digging."

Smart TO. Don't give these mediot fools any material to relay to the stupid Lions to fire them up. What's odd to me is that none of the Cowboys seemed aware of Furrey's actions. They still don't seem to care.

If Furrey had thrown high, would hitting the disabled kid have been a hate crime?

I've never wanted to run the score up on a team as badly as the Lions. I hope we beat them by 50 points.

TO plans to do his talking on the field, where it counts.

That was really the disgusting part about what Furrey did. He could have seriously hurt or even killed someone.

Very true... he ain't no Tony Romo.

That could have easily sailed on him.

i would love for TO to catch a TD to increase a blowout lead............run out to midfield, point his hands down at the Lion's head like he is holding a rifle, and pull the trigger. That would be absolutely classic.

now the only thing I would be worried about is him getting suspended a game for that celebration.

Surely TO didn't say "dude you're digging". That's not TO.

You know, that was one bizarre moment captured there. I think it's safe to say those people in the first row were utterly terrified. Then the fact that the star fell off took it into the surreal.

Speaks to me of TO finally 'getting it' when it comes to dealing with the media.

Yet another great sign.

I guess theoretically, you could die from a football to the head if it hit you just right and drove your nose into your brain. I don't think Furrey has the arm for that though.

Not to mention, if you're unlucky enough to die from a stray football to the face in a stadium with thousands of other people it's probably your time to go.

Of course, TO desecrated the star himself once upon a time, so that probably has something to do with his hush-hush attitude. It still shows maturity on his part. I hope he remains healthy and focused. He is unstoppable when those two things are just right.

That's really not supposed to be funny, but I admit it. I chuckled.
