'T.O. has B.O.'
CLEVELAND - The last time Terrell Owens played here he ripped that banner down after he scored a TD in leading the Eagles to a victory over the Browns in 2004.
He'll get a chance to do the same today because the sign is back again, hanging from the Dawg Pound.
T.O., by the way, told his teammates before they hit the field, "Follow my lead, (expletive), follow my lead."
Maybe he's inspired by the presence of LeBron James, who was mingling with Cowboys players and coaches before the game.

'T.O. still has B.O.' according to Browns fan

Tim and I just got back upstairs from walking around the floor of Cleveland Browns Stadium. Lots of great Browns fans out there, including Jennifer Gillan from Rochester, N.Y.
Gillan's seats are way up in Section 341. But the die-hard Browns fan got past security, ushers and who knows what else to hang a sign on the northwest corner of the end zone that reads, "T.O. still has B.O."
"We had this sign here in 2004 when T.O. was with the Eagles," Gillan said. As it turns out, Owens' teammates told him about the sign before the game and the star receiver had to do something about it. When Owens scored, he slammed the football into the sign.
So Gillan said her father, Bill, made up a revised sign for this game. She made the four-hour drive from Rochester and hung it with pride. Some stadium personnel gave Gillan some grief about hanging the sign with duct tape, but someone eventually gave the OK.
"We're hoping he sees it again," she said. Cowboys fans probably hope he does, too.
