Although the pompom idea was pretty cool and interesting I don’t like the fact of immitating other players or “spiking the star”, that’s “taunting” and taunting is not good for the game at all. I have no problem with endzone celebrations but when they turn into taunting, that’s another thing all together.

i agree that he goes overboard here and there. he will eventually do something completely over the top and stupid.

heres a thought, if the opposing team stops him from catching the ball and scoring then there wont be any celebrations but then if a teams focus is just him then the open up a bunch of oppurtunities for other players. his attitude works well for him and the team he plays for.

Oh,

BTW, since when did it become ok to celebrate a first down, TO isn’t just guilty here but god damn do your job get up and go back to the huddle, no need for a celebration for the first down…

His attitude towards the team rocks long as “He” feels he’s the man, check out his history in SF. Once he felt he wasn’t THE man shit went downhill…

ill agree that sportsmanship is lacking in the NFL compared to years before but i think that its that way in most sports now not just football.

thank you for putting words in my mouth! i dont care if terrell owens hates white people. i dont care what the fuck he does outside of football. hes an entertaining FOOTBALL player to me. i have no urge to meet him or be his friend.

so on sportscenter this morning they had a little report about duce. they claim he is the reason the steelers and big ben are doing so well. at first i was like no i dont think so. after thinking about it im def. changing my mind. duce has quietly averaged 112 yds a game. thoughts?

“Donovan McNabb to Terrell Owens is a combination that worries opposing defensive coordinators, and it has to frighten defensive players everywhere, because every time Owens scores a touchdown he creates a spectacle with another in a series of unique celebrations.”

“Well let me say this: if you don’t like what the guy is doing, keep him out of the end zone,” said McNabb"

“T.O is one of the top receivers in the National Football League,” said Cowher. “He runs precision routes. He has excellent hands. He can run after the catch. He backs up all the things he talks about. He has kind of given a little bit of a swagger to that offense. Not that they did not have one before, but they certainly have one now. They have been performing at a very high level.”

just backing up my claim that his flamboyancy helps the eagles win games!

All I can say is, Larry Fitzgerald plays the game right. IN a couple of years, hell be twice the reciever TO is, and everytime he scores a touchdown, he’ll hand the ball to the official like a man and walk off the field to celebrate with his teammates. Thats the way it should be.

Fuck Terrell Owens. If Owens was half the man he thinks he is, he’d play the game with respect. But hes just a piece of shit out looking for attention in any possible way he can get it. Worthless.

Those are two of the biggest lies I think I’ve ever heard. He absolutely does NOT run precision routes. He doesnt run routes that require precision, first of all, he runs deep.

And his hands are average at the very best. He doesn’t have the hands of a Marvin Harrison, Randy Moss, hell, he doesnt have the hands of Joe Delsardo… Now there is a WR with some fuckin hands.

Fitzgerald is one of my favorite players also. i agree, you have to respect his attitude and work ethic. however, you simply can’t say that he’ll be twice the reciever Owens is. there isn’t anyone playing right now that is twice the reciever Owens is. look at the numbers. Larry isnt even close to being at Owens level of play…so until he can even post comparable numbers…your statement is nothing more than speculation…which is worthless

also, doesnt Ownes have the highest Yards After Carry of any reciever??? so how can he only run deep routes (“routes that require no precision”) if thats the case???..every time i see him he is crossing the middle as much as any reciever and is obviously making things happen after the catch…like i said look at the numbers. also, to make any comparison of T.O. to a Pitt reciever (delsardo) that might not even be NFL caliber, is absolutley ridiculous.
