Linking TO to the redskins is just lazy reporting. Dan Snyder is always the easy target whenever a high profile player is available. When are these clowns going to realize that even if Dan did want TO...Dan does not decide what players play for the Redskins anymore. Joe Gibbs does...

Anyway...Dan Snyder has not chased big names in about 5 years now. What a lazy piece of reporting by Peter King...

1000% agreed. Anyone who says the Skins are interested in Owens has not paid nearly enough attention to the changes that have taken place in the Skins' front office.

This is just another example of why national media members cannot be relied on for any in-depth reporting or analysis. They have to cover all 32 teams and can't cover any single team with any depth whatsoever. The only result is shallow reporting on 32 different teams.

I think T.O. is getting somewhat of a bad rap. While I think he's ultimately resposible for what has happened to him, the media has done it's part in blowing everything out of perspective. Many of the comments made, especially the one about Brette Farve, came unsolicited. If you follow the flow of some of those interviews, some of those questions were staged.

Now, I'm not running to T.O.s defense I just don't think he's totally to blame here. That along with Drew Rosenhaus stringing him along is a bad mix.

If this was the first incident TO was involved with I might buy it, but he's been a royal pain in the arse in every NFL city he's played in, and even where he hasn't played (Baltimore).

The guy is a major headcase and whoever picks him up will have a ticking timebomb on their hands, it's not a question of if he'll implode again but when.

I think you're right, the media has overblown things like they always do. But the point is also irrelevant. If we sign TO, the media scrutiny of him will come with it. The media is not going to stop hanging on his every word, and the media will continue to hold his feet to the fire on even the most insignificant comments. If you sign Owens, you're not just bringing in the player. You're bringing in all the same circumstances that caused the ruckus in Philly: TO and the media scrutiny.

Unfortunately, you're right. What's really sad is that most of the people that you hear speak about him on a personal level feel that he's a really good dude.

This whole thing with him has turned into a vicious, never ending cycle of hoopla that will surely distract any team. I really hope he can get his career back on track.

TO could easily end all the hoopla surrounding him by simply not talking to the media.

Everytime he does he sticks his foot squarely in his mouth... so why not just shut the hell up and stop playing the innocent victim routine?

I'm glad that the Redskin organization has officially stated that the Internet rumors of the Redskins being interested in Terrell Owens are false. Gibbs has stated that Terrell Owens is not the type of player the Redskins are interested in. Let TO screw up someone else's team. I hope the Cowboys sign him.

Well I don't want to come to his defense in any way. I think the media plays a role in blowing his comments out of proportion, but at the same time he's still dumb enough to make those comments in the first place.

Someone his age should realize that the media's going to blow things out of proportion, and that he needs to watch what he says because it's going to get scrutinized. But he still does what he wants anyway. When it comes down to it, he's still a selfish jerk.

I personally hope he never plays football again. You can be a great guy to be around, but if you're going to make negative comments in the media about a teammate, I don't want you in my locker room.
