Here's the Terrell Owens clip from the NEWBO's series on CNBC...

That racist stuff has got to stop in this country. I may be a little different from most because I grew up in NY and around a whole host of races, colors and creeds, but I just can't see how people can hate on someone else for what they look like.
It's just stupid.
As for Terrell Owens being a role model for my kids. Probably not because he's not a good teammate in certain situations and I think he's too self involved.
I do feel for him having to see his Grandmother go thru Alzheimer's. My father had similar symptoms when he was dying of cancer and it's heart breaking to see someone not have the use of their mind as it once was. It's frustrating for the person and everyone around them. Stay strong Terrell and just make sure you keep being there for the fam when they need you.
Will he be here in 2009? Who knows anymore. One day it looks like it's a definite yes, then I starting thinking that Jerry hasn't made up his mind yet or he would have just told us one way or another.
I will always go back to the idea that if he would just learn to stop talking publicly about 'issues' he has with the offense or his teammates that I would once again be in his corner so to speak. But I don't think he can do that at this stage of his life. He needs the mics and cameras on him at all times because it's just who he is and that's not going to change.
