I'm not even watching :espn: this week.

Im not either, talking about over reacting to ONE lousy loss. No one expected us to go 16-0 did they?

They made fun of TO when he cried after the playoff loss, now they make fun of him when he is upset after a loss but not crying.

He can't win.

This is the reason why I don't watch. I would rather serve my community by walking outside with my pooper scooper than waste my time watching ESPN.

I went to a Wings place for lunch and they had ESPN on and I swear that during the blurb about Dallas and the Skins, they must have showed the interception replay at least 5 times in two minutes.

I still think answer to the question if he got enough touches ("no") was him answering not literally, like he was upset, but rather, as a guy that wants to do everything he can to help the team win. I'm sure he'd like to get 100% of the touches. It's confidence; he feels that the more he's involved the better chance he has to help the team win.

I see nothing wrong with him saying/thinking that. Good teams get the ball into the hands of their best players. ESPN needs to admit that Owens is one of our best players out there. He's a difference maker, he is a game changer.

The problem Sunday (IMO) was not with Owens. Everybody I've spoken to today at work says Washington's coverage was TIGHT. Romo's passes were off and Barber/Felix were under-used. I'm sure there were some passes that he felt, if thrown earlier/better, he could have done a lot with. That's CONFIDENCE, not arrogance. There is a big difference and the idiots at ESPN need to learn the difference.

They just look eager to put down Terrell Owens every chance they get. They 're turning legitimate sports reporting into tabloid trash.

Does anyone know exactly what T.O. said after the game to get the media in an uproar?

Anyone who's ever played sports will know that if you are any type of competitor, you will blow up after a game and say things that you don't mean, etc.

The media won't hear half the things said in the locker room, I'm sure plenty of things are said in there that if brought to the media, half the fans would turn on half the players.

Let the man vent, let the coaches vent, Jimmy Johnson used to throw hissy fits, it's natural, just let it take it's course and move on, just like we're allowed to vent.

Exactly.

I'd rather see guys get mad and vent...then to just say the old...oh well it's just one game.

Give me a pissed off guy any day.

They would get into an uproar even if he did nothing but burp after the game.

That's what really irks me most about BSPN, Farve, Manning, or Brady can throw 5 INTs, and they would say they were just trying to make plays for their teams but just came up short and nothing else would be said about it.


But Romo, can throw 1 INT, and it's the "Romo isn't as good as everyone thinks he is" that is why I won't be watching that trash network, unless Monday Night Football is on.

Of course Clove, but what bothers me is that it never stops when its the Cowboys..Who crowned us this year? They did ..Cowboys best team in the NFL. This that and then one loss and boom. Then you have the idiot Commander fans here are you kidding me... Its the 4 th game of the season...

I think my problem with it is that, in the past when he complained about not getting the ball in a loss, he really didn't get the ball. This game, if numbers are correct, they threw it his way 17 times? What is he complaning about? Seriusly, he got it thrown to him 17 out of 48 times or something like that? It just doesn't seem waranted in this particular game.


I guess he's just frustrated He dropped a few tough balls. there players were drapped all over him there could have been like 2-3 pass interference calls so I'm sure he's P-O

Those guys are so loved its sick..there like untouchable...Do you realize Farve was throwing for scores late in the jets game yesterday..then to rub salt on the wound they went for 2 points. Mangenuis really took it to the Cardinals. It was sick, yet not a word was even mentioned

All the darma stuff is a complete JOKE. ESPN wants and needs viewers, we are a excellent way of getting them. Folks who like "Tabloid junk" will be all over it, football fans know the deal...

Yeah I saw that I'm not watching that garbage ESPN anymore.

It's just sickening the way they create stories regarding players, and I'm not just talking about the Cowboys, but anyone they can create a story out of.
