It's funny how the "STAR" changes your mind...

Being a Dallas Cowboys' fan first and foremost, I hated T.O. when he was a 49er and an Eagle. He disrespected the star with S.F. and was a divisonal rival with Phi. But, as soon as he comes to Dallas, I bought his jersey. Now, that he's gone, I think we're better off without him. It's funny how things go sometimes. With that being said, I would like to share something with you guys...
I have a confession to make. I was a "BIG" Brandon Jacobs fan. See, I live in a small town in Southeast Kansas called Coffeyville. Our community college "Red Ravens" have had some NFL talent come through. But I never really followed the Red Ravens until my cousin, who is like my little brother, became a starting freshman WR. I went to every home game that year. In the huddle with my cousin, was a big, fast, bruising, RB named, Brandon Jacobs. He dominated each game, and was even I really good dude. When he was drafted by the Giants, it was crazy to me. I was so happy for him...
But...now, I can't stand that dude. He's a punk and I just hate him now...
Here is a pic of my cousin

Thats a great little story. It is funny how the star changes your attitude. I also hated Owens in SF and Philly, but I was ultra excited when he became a Cowboy and also bought his (fake) Jersey. But now that he's gone I realize we are better without him but I will still hope he does well as long as he stays out of the NFC.

Shared the same sentiment for Deion Sanders...always respected his talent as a Falcon and was one of my favorite NFL players, but as soon as he went to SF (big rivalry then) I hated his guts...loved him when he came to Dallas, and laughed at him and hoped he would fail when he went to Washington.

I was the same way with both Deion and TO. I still will like to see TO do good in Buffalo. I can care less if people and the media says...see he still has it. As long as the Cowboys win, it doesn't matter anyway.
But I want him to help them win, just because I hate the Patriots.

I did not Like TO before he got here, when he was here and I was so glad when they showed him the door (no I did not root against him) I also did not cheer him when he scored.

I was the same ways with Deion i did not like him before, during and after he left

Both guys have a lot of talent and Deion is a HOF does not mean I have to like him.

Like a lot of things in life I had to work with people I did not like but at the end of the day I had a job yo do and perform at. So with Deion and TO I wanted them to go out and do their job well does not mean I liked them just because they have a start on the helmet.
