T.O. blew off the Valley Ranch media horde in the locker room but strongly denied that he's jealous of Jason Witten while chatting with a couple reporters by the equipment room.

"What do I have to be jealous of?" T.O. said. "What in the hell do i have to be jealous of? Look at me, I'm handsome than a [beep]. I'm handsome as hell."

The Cowboys are ready to move on from this drama after today's meeting, according to T.O. He said he's not surprised to be at the center of a controversy, because he expects to be made into a scapegoat.

But the accusations of jealousy annoyed him.

"I ain't never been jealous of nobody," T.O. said. "Keyshawn is jealous. He is jealous of me. I ain't jealous of nobody."

How is T.O. gonna deal with all this drama?

"Go out and I ball out," he said. "That's what I do."

Here are the unfiltered answers to variations of that questions from a handful of key Cowboys.

Jason Witten: "It's all good."

Patrick Crayton: "Team is together, yep."

Roy Williams: "Everybody's fine. That's you guys. It's yourself trying to get this team divided and we're not going to let it happen. We're going to stand strong. That's what we do. And we're going to play good football Sunday night."

Terence Newman: "Today or yesterday? Right now, I think we're together. We kind of spoke about our well-being as a team and how we have to feel about each other. You know, you don't have to like each other -- hang with each other off the field -- but while you're here we have to respect each other and if you have a problem go address each other in a manly fashion."

So, I read Newman's comments, and it sounds like guys on this team don't like each other. Right?

And yesterday it was worse, but today it's better?

Maybe they are all POed enough to kick some Giants behind Sunday night.

One question? Has Keyshawn gotten that far under owens skin? Geeesh.

What the hell is going on with Newman?

 

[thssanders]

funny thing is on NFL live a minute ago... werder left newmans comment as "today or yesterday?" Then he went on to elaborate saying he thinks what newman said means things are getting worse.... its ridiculous how they leave some stuff out to make things seem worse.

TO might dress well, but the dude is not handsome...

 

[TellerMorrow34]

It would appear that's the way it is and honestly that's to be expected. I don't know how anyone would think, or believe, that just because these guys are teammates that they all like one another or hang out together away from the field.

This is their job. Does anyone here like and/or hang out with everyone they work with? I highly doubt it.

 

[thechosen1n2]

think he was blamed for giving up the big play to holmes.

that's funny

 

[MrMom]

What the hell is going on with Newman?

And he fancies himself a team leader?

 

[Dave_in-NC]

Yup...

 

[TheCount]

He was blamed, Wade has been angling for credit and taking less blame lately. That doesn't mean you go all DeAngelo Hall on us, I mean seriously.

 

[Da Hammer]

haha i love the continuing bashing of Keyshawn by T.O i love it keep it going haha!

 

[Mash]

I dont know but something is wrong with Newman....really...

I thought Ellis was a headcase but....

Newman talks alot...but makes no plays....and has been injured alot the past few seasons.....

How come we dont hear from Ware? Ratliff? Thomas? Hamlin?

Duck, bro.

Hell hath no fury like the Newman nuthuggers.

 

[Mash]

Wade didnt single out Newman...

But he did say something about that 3rd down play.......maybe a safety should of been there...maybe it was a bad adjustment....

But I dont think he called Newman's name out...

Owens: "I'm at a loss for words"

Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens says he's at a loss for words in regard to reports that he has resentment towards Tony Romo and jealous of tight end Jason Witten. Anonymous players made statements that the Cowboys cater to Owens complaints.

"Whoever this anonymous player was full of (expletive)," Owens said. "I'm at a loss for words. I ain't jealous of nobody. Keyshawn (Johnson) is jealous. He is jealous of me."

All the controversy was addressed by Wade Phillips in a lengthy morning meeting that took so long it got the team off schedule. How long was the meeting?

"Too long," said an animated Owens.

No, no issues at all. The team meeting that happened because of issues was so irrelevant that it lasted a long, long time. Too long for TO, apparently. Obviously, there are no issues at all, and nothing has happened to make this team feel divided.
