IRVING – You can attach many labels to the outspoken Terrell Owens.

But children's author?

The often controversial Cowboys playmaker, who made headlines last week for what was determined to be an accidental overdose, will now release his first children's book – Little T Learns to Share.

Dallas based publisher BenBella Books said it should hit bookstores in mid-November.

This is no tell-all, such as T.O., the book on his life he released this summer.

It's about a a young boy learning the value of sharing.

Little T, the title character, refuses to share his football at first but later realizes he can't enjoy his new ball without friends.

"I tried to play outside alone and throw it by myself, but football isn't football unless you play with someone else," Little T tells his mother in the book.

Sigh. Well, at least he isn't an Eagle anymore, so none of our Eagle-fan friends will give this to our daughter!

I thought "Little T learns how to say sorry" was much funnier :)

Dark and lonely on the summer night.
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Watchdog barking - Do he bite?
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Slip in his window,
Break his neck!
Then his house
I start to wreck!
Got no reason --
What the heck!
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
C-I-L-L ...
My land -
lord ...
Def!

Other T.O. news.....

Locker room confidential: T.O. passes out T-shirts

Terrell Owens placed "Fancy Little Football Person" T-shirts in several of his teammates' lockers this afternoon.

In case you were trapped under a rock last week, that's the phrase that the chief of the Dallas Police Association used to describe Owens following his recent episode.

Backup quarterback Tony Romo was already wearing his T-shirt.

"This is T.O. week," said the most celebrated backup in the game. "I want to show my support."

Drew Bledsoe arrived a few minutes later and began digging through his locker for a T-shirt. "Who stole my shirt?" he said.

Given T.O.'s history with starting quarterbacks, I'm thinking he may have left Bledsoe off the distribution list.

Don't think for a second that Joe Theismann's recent comments about Owens being a "complementary" receiver isn't bothering him.

He brought it up without being asked Wednesday, and you can bet he's not thrilled that Terry Glenn is catching most of the touchdowns.

To his credit, Owens hasn't even hinted of having any problems with Bledsoe.
