He had no choice but to play for the Dallas Cowboys. It's understandable that he'd get depressed and try to kill himself.

Police: T.O. tried to kill himself

DALLAS (AP) -- Flamboyant Dallas Cowboys receiver Terrell Owens attempted suicide by overdosing on pain medication, even putting two more pills into his mouth after fire rescue personnel arrived.
A Dallas police report released Wednesday morning said Owens told rescue workers "that he was depressed." The report was first released by WFAA-TV.
The rescue worker "noticed that (his) prescription pain medication was empty and observed (Owens) putting two pills in his mouth," the police report said.
The worker attempted to pry them out with her fingers, then was told by Owens that before this incident he'd taken only five of the 40 pain pills in the bottle he'd emptied. The worker then asked Owens "if he was attempting to harm himself, at which time (he) stated, `Yes."'

Sounded like an OD to me. Maybe he's trying to get out of playing the Eagles in Week 5.
The more important question is, who will I start as my third WR?

Well, that just makes my whole damn day! Doesn't it just cheer you the hell up when bad things happen to bad people? I'm going to log off and make myself a gourmet coffee to celebrate!
(If I was an actual Dallas Cowboy fan, I'd be cracking a bottle of good French champagne. - Maybe Dallas actually has a realistic shot at the playoffs after all.........)

I dont like him, but I dont want him to die either. I hope he gets some help with whatever is bothering him. I would hate to think that he did this to get yet more attention.

Some one told me it was either an allergic reaction or an overdose.

It's a publicity stunt.
