Terrell Owens Press Conference (mp3) is available here:

I just viewed the Terrell Owens press conference on ESPN News. I didn't realize his agent is the absolute idiot loudmouth Drew Rosenhaus. I therefore retract my support for bringing T.O. to Denver. If T.O. fires Rosenhaus then I'm for bringing T.O. here once again.
and ESPN's Sal Palantonio is now reporting that the Eagles have officially said that Owens' last minute apology today doesn't change anything. T.O. will never be in an Eagles uniform again. EVER.
KOA's sports reporters already have a number of quotes from Bronco players about this possibility. Two I heard were from John Lynch and Nick Ferguson, both defensive backs. They both were positive about the idea which isn't suprising considering T.O. burned them for 91 yards in their game two weeks ago vs. the Eagles here in Denver.

NO team should sign any player who employs Drew Rosenhaus. Unless they want to spend a season with the same kind of circus the Eagles have this year.
T.O. isn't going anywhere this year. Why any team, much less a team bound for the playoffs like Denver would even give T.O. a moment's thought is beyond me. I can't believe a player as smart and classy as John Lynch would say anything other than, "We're focused on winnin a Super Bowl this year with who we've got right now. We can't worry about T.O. or any other player on any other team."
If you listen to the news conference mp3 the 'performance' by Drew Rosenhaus is embarrassing. I think Rosen'loudmouth' used 'I' or 'me' like 29 times and refused to answer almost every question. What an absolute idiot T.O. has for an agent.
Too bad because Terrell is one of the hardest working players in the NFL and does come to play on Sunday. Minus Rosenhaus I'd take him in a second for my Broncos no problema.
I hope the NFL blackballs Owens so that he never plays anywhere ever again. Let him go to Canada or Europe and try to get a 7 year, $49M contract.
I would agree with this if T.O. was a steroid user or drug addict like other NFL players who get off with what amounts to a slap on the wrist.
The whole fiasco with T.O. and his contract is a result of his agent Drew Rosenhaus. Listen to this news conference or if you saw 'Real Sports' on HBO and their interview with Rosenhaus you will understand the idiot behind this whole fiasco, his agent, is probably a majority of the reason T.O. is not playing for the remainder of this year.
I agree. Drew Rosenhaus is complete slime. Hopefully the league can stand up to these extortionists and not cave in.
Yeah, it worries me that Drew is Chad Johnson's agent. Especially since the Bengals are a small to medium market. They are finally actually good after 15 years as the NFL laughingstock.
I hate it when 99% of the lawyers make the rest of us look bad.
You have got to be kidding! Damn, now I see the connection between the endzone celebration crap. I like Chad Johnson, but hope Coach Marvin Lewis can keep him reigned in to some extent. I heard that Coach Lewis took away the list Johnson had going where he checks off the DBs that he beats on a weekly basis.
The answer is no. To blame anyone else for TO's actions- which are ultimately what got him suspended- is ludicrous. TO is in this situation because of TO, period.
