It seems no matter where Cowboys’ wide receiver Terrell Owens’ goes, trouble seems to find him. He’s not happy just to play football; he has to play with the media, his teammates and coaches, fans and anyone else who is willing to give him the attention he craves. I’ve never seen an athlete who was so self-absorbed.
In this latest “attempted suicide” story, Owens may well be telling the truth about mixing too many painkillers with his supplements thereby causing his accidental overdose. But was this a cry for help, as some sports reporters suggest, or was Terrell Owens simply being Terrell Owens?
TO is not someone who gets depressed or suicidal. He is a man who loves attention and, if he’s not making the news on the field, he has to find a way to create news off of it.
He certainly enjoyed facing the media yesterday to explain his “suicide” story. There he was during the press conference, all smiles, relaxed and happy as can be. While the overdose might have been an accident, the publicity that followed certainly wasn’t.
