OWENS FRACTURING LOCKER ROOM
A league source tells us that the ongoing antics of Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens, coupled with the failure of the organization to do anything about it, is creating a schism in the team's locker room.
Per the source, many players think that Owens is a "f--king *******" and that "his bullsh-t is screwing up what promised to be a playoff season."
However, Owens is surrounding himself with teammates who support him, and they're buying into his "us against the world" mentality.
So there's a pro-T.O. camp, and an anti-T.O. camp in the locker room.
It's not the best way, in our view, to get 53 guys on the same page.
Regarding the guy at the center of the latest T.O.-driven brouhaha, receivers coach Todd Haley, the players generally regard him as a "good guy" who "goes to bat for the receivers." The source said that Owens' suggestion that Haley can't be trusted "is bull****," and that "Owens is acting like he's never been yelled at."
We're also told that some players believe that owner Jerry Jones knows his made a mistake in signing Owens, but that Jones' "ego is too f--king
big to get rid of him."
