rotoworld: All signs point to Owens leaving cowboys *Merge*

Those of you who recite this are apparently unaware of the fact that you're indirectly saying that Terrell Owens is single-handedly responsible for the team not winning.

The Cowboys aren't good enough to win WITH T.O. We found that out this year (supposedly), which is why you want him gone.

Yet when you claim this team can win WITHOUT HIM...what you are saying is that, if you remove T.O. from the equation, this is a team that can win.

With him, not good enough to win. Without him, good enough to win. Hence THE problem was--HIM.

You can't have it both ways.

Either Terrell Owens is THE reason the team wasn't winning...or he's merely part of it, but the Cowboys are NOT good enough to win without him. They can cut him and help themselves, but unless they make numerous other changes, they still aren't good enough, hence, in the end, the move will do them little good unless they make it in conjunction with other changes.

You're going to need this. Good luck and god speed.

And you couldn't have said this in the other 1000 TO threads?

I thought it deserved it's own thread. Nothing will slow the rate of T.O. threads on this forum, unless the mods create a separate forum for them.

Oh if only it were so simple.
 
This isn't even a pro-T.O. thread. It's about making a logical argument....something few (if any) of the cut-T.O. crowd here are capable of.

Logical statement?


Yeah... minus the logic.

Your assumption is based upon limited variables. Perhaps some view Jerry Jones as THE problem but know that he isn't going anywhere. They may feel that parting ways with Owens (most high profile example of Jerry's decision making) but still going 9-7 is actually winning more because it would prove to Jerry that teams win, not players.

Brad Johnson: Nobody cares.

Terrell Owens: Everyone cares.

See the difference? You announce the big news, and Terrell Owens, no matter which side you're on, is big news. Jerry Jones knows this.

That's why the Cowboys released the information about Pacman being gone. Because Pacman is a marquee name.

i don't care.

i don't give a diabetic rats patootie if he's here next year or not. just want us all to shut up and get back to the game vs. the drama.

That's the bottom line and the sad reality. They're not looking at what they'll have to contend with without TO on the field this year. They just want him gone because he gets on their nerves. It's comical.

True. Without TO, the Cowboys could miss the playoffs.

Oh, wait...

We all know TO was the sole reason why we got our ***** handed to us 44-6 in a pivotal post November game that would have placed us squarely in said playoffs. :thumbup:

Oh wait...
