Shit. He’s going to Washington. He’s going to New York. And if by chance hell freezes over, he’s going back to Philly. Ok, well that last one is as feasible George Bush hosting the B.E.T. Awards, but those were the thoughts that raced through my head a few hours ago.
For the faithful SportsCenter viewers across the world, we all know when something big is about to happen because of the “Breaking News” alert. Normally Stu Scott (who’s an Alpha if I may add) is an upbeat, charismatic anchor, but when he announced this at exactly 12:00 midnight, I thought someone might have kicked his dog.
The last three weeks Jerry Jones has been saying (without saying) he had no plans to release T.O. because if he did, he would’ve already gave 81 his pink slip. Let this be a fine example to us all folks. When we assume, we make an ass out of ourselves. On one hand, I’m happy that the controversy is gone, but on the other, I have to ask myself, was T.O. really the problem? It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that he wasn’t the root of all the evil in Dallas. The Cowboys simply don’t have enough heart, the one thing T.O. had more than enough of. On paper, the Cowboys are by far the best team in the league, but since the game is played on grass instead of dead tree bark, bragging rights don’t extend much further than that.
Who knows where Owens will end up. Just please…PLEASE…if the football gods are listening to me as I type this, PLEASE do not let him land in the NFC East. I can already see how that will play out. If I’m a Kansas City fan, I surely wouldn’t mind taking a chance on him. Cassel, Johnson, Bowe, T.O. and Gonzalez. Not a bad offense if they can all get along. IF.. there was at one point when I was saying, “If Dallas gets T.O…”
I’d say Dallas should’ve kept him. Then again there’s a reason I’m typing this instead of making front office decisions.
