In an interview soon to be aired by HBO, Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens puts the blame on the media for pegging him as a selfish individual.
Owens said he doesn’t think reporters are necessarily conspiring against him as much as using him “to gain viewers’ attention.” As a result, he believes that he is “misunderstood.” He said other players have been, too, “but I feel like I have been one of the main guys who’ve been vilified.”
Why?
“That’s the million-dollar question,” he said. “Why me? … At some point it does get to me. And I can’t say it enough. Dude, I’m human and that’s what I’m trying to get people to understand.”
Hmm, let’s see. T.O spent an entire spring whining about his contract and felt like he was being underpaid. He called out his star quarterback and his antics arguably ruined the Eagles’ 2005 season. I don’t know who the bigger baby is: T.O or Barry Bonds?
