According to ESPN, Dallas Cowboy WR Terrell Owens is reportedly thinking about retiring from football, and taking up basketball. Owens, 35, has recently had troubles with his QB, Tony Romo. Owens is saying that Romo is not throwing him the ball enough, but in fact, throwing the ball more to his "lover" Jason Witten, the team's TE. Romo and Witten could not be reached, but Owens had to say, "Man, if Romo wants to throw to white guys, then that's his problem. He's hurting the team, not me. He runs like a girl, and can't catch. Hell, if he don't want to get me the ball, Jerry (Jones) should get off his ass and give me the job at QB, and let Tony try and run routes. If I'm not given the chance to earn my paycheck like I want to, then I will, quote me on this, I WILL RETIRE. I'm sure there are a lot of NBA franchises I could ruin, er, I mean improve. Also, how about the real-life Portland Trailblazers? They gon' win some 'ships." It has been rumored that teams that have cited interest in TO are the Utah Jazz, Oklahoma City Thunder, Dallas Mavericks, and Philadephia 76ers. Also, per the Dallas Morning News, TO is supposed to start working out for teams in about the next 2 weeks.

I don't find it funny at all, f**king Plaxico can carry a gun and they talk about for a day. T.O. holds a meeting with Garrett, Clayton, and Williams and all of a sudden him and Homo hate each other. IT AIN'T TRUE, AND THE EDITOR OF ESPN IS GARBAGE!
I don't give a f**k if Homo's hurt or whatever, he sucks and just needs to suck it up and get through this season...and I pray Jerry Jones gets a new QB next year.

They talked about Plaxico for like 5 days straight. The thing is with the giants, they do a great job not fueling these fires of distractions. They don't talk about it in the locker room, and they do a good job of just shutting up, going out on the field and just playing (except for last week lol). And i heard its just cause of Jason Witten why Owens hates him. Whatever, you cant complain because you root for a team of ex-cons, superstars and primadonnas. It's what you get. I'll bet you that Plaxico will be on the Cowboys next year.

Tell me what T.O. said, it's ridiculous because I still don't know. ESPN is so full of shit, hating T.O....personally I think it's Mcnabb's fault T.O. didn't work out in Philly BECAUSE HE LOST THEM THE f**kING SUPERBOWL, HE WASN'T IN SHAPE.

I am not gonna get into the T.O. and the Cowboys mess
but I would like to see T.O. play 1 season in the NBA, not a starter but prolly a good 6th man.
he is 35 right now, and has 2 more years in his contract left after this, so at 37 he could take a shot at NBA career, and could be a Reggie Milleresque shooter for a team.

Owens feels that Romo and Witten -- close friends and road roommates who came to Dallas in the same offseason -- hold private meetings in which they create plays the two will use in upcoming games without including Owens in the conversations, according to a source who speaks regularly with Owens' teammates. Owens believes these discussions have worked to his detriment as Romo seeks to deliver the ball to Witten regardless of whether Owens is open. I mean, he is such a baby, Is he really crying about how Romo and Witten are making secret plays? I mean really?

ROMO A SHITTY QB AND CAN'T READ A COVERAGE TO SAVE HIS LIFE, BUT AT LEAST PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO GET HIM. I'm playing it now, next year Bengals Get: QB Tony Romo RB Marion Barber Cowboys Get: QB Carson Palmer But the act is T.O. never said anything other than "Romo needs to look up the field" ESPN so full of shit.

if I were any of T.O.'s QB I would not throw the ball to him too, he gets more ball thrown to him then anyone else, and then on top of that he has the audacity to ask for the ball more when time after time it has been proven that he drops the ball everytime and anytime espicially in the clutch, he makes big plays a lot of time but he is known to drop crucial passes most of time.
You don't see many people talk about Moss, Harrison, Smith and heck even Plaxcio dropping clutch passes but with T.O. and Chad Johnson it's always the same.

That isn't the point, though I disagree. ESPN and people on this board want T.O. to do bad...and I don't get why? HE DIDN'T SAY HE WAS JEALOUS OF WITTEN SO GET THE f**k OFF OF IT!

Dude you need to chill out, next thing you know you'll be bawling like T.O was when he was defending Romo last year in a press conference. It's not that he did something really bad it's just he said something stupid at a bad time. He needs to be more concerned about playing the Giants this Sunday and not about what Romo and Witten talk about.

So if he didn't say it then why doesn't he sue the person who originally reported it for slander? BECAUSE HE DID SAY IT

BECAUSE HE DID SAY IT I think we ought sue, he may have said to a player but he didn't say it to the media...and what is all this "anonymous Dallas Cowboys players" bullshit? The media is creating this just like they creating everything thing else, I'm seriously going to quit watching ESPN because that is just GARBAGE!

So i guess ESPN created the mess between Jeff Garcia and TO in San Fran? And i guess they created it between Donovan and TO in Philly? Terrel Owens needs to just look at players like Andre Johnson and shut up. And cowboys fans make me sick. Once a quarterback starts to have a little struggle, they just want to deal him. Their never happy with anything, and think they can just go out and trade and sign their way into the Super Bowl. Build a team from the inside out, not the outside in.
