considering how owens is a basically a model citizen off the field, I find this argument boring and circular.
yea owens is a jerk. but again, he doesn't beat hgis wife, smoke pot, get into fights etc. moss squirted a ref, no? he admitted smoking weed, etc.
there are different ways to shame the game.
anbd lets be real here, moss and owens are the two best receivers in the game, then harrison. i like harrison the bst however, but you can't let your dislike obscure the objective facts. cj is a contender, but he hasn't been doing it as long. holt is good, but not nearly as physical.
The opening scene of the movie "Saving Private Ryan" is loosely based on games of dodgeball Brian Dawkins played in second grade.
You know, when it comes down to it, I'd rather TO stop his endzone dances (it can't get better than doing Ray Lewis's dance right in front of Ray Lewis) than McNabb stop his ocassional and usually goofy looking dances.
He's not. He's overhated. Riencry and Kilroy are blinded by their hatred of one of the best WRs in the game.
Show me where I said I hate him? I don't hate him. The topic was him not doing end zone dances, and to me it's career suicide.
Get over it sensitive Owens owners! Sheesh! He wines, he dances, he plays football. That's all I said.
The words you wrote don't match the backtracking you're trying to do. It's okay. There are a lot of people who don't like athletes who speak thier mind. Go ahead and whine about him whine, if it makes you feel better, but you can't deny his skill.
I think, therefore I am. I think fantasy, therefore I am unreal?

For as big of a pain in the butt as he is, he certainly deserves some respect for his willingness to go over the middle, take a crushing hit, and still hang onto the football.
Likewise, at least he's not one of those guys beating his wife and whatnot. I'm certainly not a fan of his, I don't even like the guy, but it's still kind of bass ackwards that he is generally regarded as a worse human being than a guy like Randy Mcmichael, who just can't stop hitting his wife...
