I'm back!

Wow. It has been a long time since my last post - more than a year. Since my last post, we have a new Batman and Robin (move over, A-Roid and Jeter); Spain has taken over the sporting world; the Washington franchises have a bright future ahead of them; and we have seen a plethora of pitching displays unlike any other - this after baseball's steroid allegations have died down.

TO sleeping on the job

Today, I'll be talking about what everyone's been chatting about - Terrell Owens joining the Bungles. Since when did these cats turn into the Cowboys? They have TO, Pacman and Tank Johnson - all of whom played for the 'Boys years ago. I think this match of TO and Chad Johnson Ochocinco will be a perfect fit. Both are identical receivers (outside of Owens' bad hands) and have had a troubled childhood before entering the NFL. Most importantly, though, is that they are were NFL divas. Both have reached a point in their careers as wily old veteran wide receivers who would benefit with a veteran QB. Not only that, but the Bengals have a talented running back in Cedric Benson. With the addition of Owens, the defense will be forced to double-team Ochocinco and thus open running lanes for Benson - who might have a Pro-Bowl-caliber season ahead of him.



The problem is that Owens is a trash-talker, on-and-off-the-field. When he was with the 49ers, he jawed with Jeff Garcia; with the Eagles, he and Donovan McNabb (now a Redskin) would go back-and-forth on the sidelines; the same goes with Tony Romo and Owens. We did not hear much of that when TO was with the Bills, but that's because the whole team was AWFUL. With his age and his contract (only a one-year deal), he should better keep his mouth shut - otherwise disaster may ensue.

Since I am a Redskins fan, I am glad he has joined another AFC team. We will not have to face the Bengals for at least another year.

What do you think of Terrell Owens joining the Cincinnati Bengals?
