ESPN Report: Terrell Owens attempts suicide

This is just a tragic story. I hope he recovers and gets help.

As i said to a quote from DBOYZ.

"the big blue melt down"

From a class organization to a trash organization.


Why to go Jerry Jones!

I hate the guy as a player but this isn't even funny. Let's hope he gets things sorted out.


Same here. Suicide is no joke.

The police report said Owens was asked if he had taken the rest of the prescription; Owens said, "Yes."

According to the report, police also asked if he was trying to harm himself. Owens answered, "Yes."

It's true, money doesn't buy happiness, unless this is some sick, twisted way to get back into the news, which really could be possible for this egomaniac.

There's probably a reason he brags so much, because he's insecure. It's VERY possible. Many times, the people who appear to be the happiest and most successful people are hurting the most inside. He does have an incredibly inflated ego, it almost has to be artificial.

If he was just looking for media attention, it worked.

I hope he gets help if he truly needs it though.

Strange story.

As for the report on TSG, many police cars now use laptops to take reports rather than paper forms. The cop may scribble some notes onto a notepad but then will enter the report into the laptop when he gets back to the car. TSG has always been reliable and it doesn't have to be written in pen to be an official report. Notice it does say "NARRATIVE 01 SCREEN" on the top. It's an automated report.

Nothing remotely funny about this.

I mentioned the Tom Friend article above. On ESPN radio he basically said TO is considered by teammates who know him to be as insecure as anybody they knew. One story...

During the game against the Packers when he was with the Niners he had dropped numerous balls. He kept going back to Steve Young and begging him to not lose confidence in him. Finally when he caught the game winning TD he broke into tears and for the next several years thanked Steve Young every day for not losing confidence in him. I repeat: He was so insecure that he thanked Steve Young EVERY DAY FOR 3 years or something like that.

Common, is this really a joking matter right now?

Reports are that Owens is scheduling a press conference in a couple of hours and he is expected to explain things.

But even IF it was a misunderstanding and he really DID not attempt suicide. If it is proven that he did take MORE than the prescribed amount of the pain meds, HE COULD BE SUBJECT TO THE NFL SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROGRAM. In other words, if the suicide subject is put to rest there is still the real possibility that he could face a SUSPENSION by the league for substance abuse.

Even if he manages to clear this suicide thing up, he will still have a lot of explaining to do to the league.

i will admit that I once said that i wished t.o. would just disappear, but not like this.

I don't see how this reflects on the Boys at all. Stuff like this has never been even remotely an issue with him. If you want to fault them there are plenty of other reasons but for crissake realize that clearly there is something a little more important going on here. They guy is a world class douchebag. There is no one who would dent that. But he is also a human being who does charity work among some other positive things. I hope this is just a blip on the psychological radar and we can go back to bashing him fairly for things that aren't as important.
