Get your chicken wings ready!
For all my Buffalo Bills friends - and there are many - it is going to be an immense pleasure watching them cheer on Terrell Owens after hearing them kill him over the years as he signed a one year deal there. For a guy like that, as with others like Manny Ramirez or AJ Burnett, a one year deal is an absolute masterstroke. He'll stay motivated, in line, and if not, the risk is minimized. That said, Sportsbybrooks gives four reasons why signing T.O. is a terrell-ible move for Buffalo..if you hear that Holland beat the Dominican at something, you have to assume soccer or speed skating or any number of sports. But baseball? No. Yet the Dutch proved too much for the Dominican's and downed them 3-2. Good thing A-Rod wasn't playing for the Dominicans, he'd have had to take all the heat I'm sure...Dallas Cowboy Marion Barber made a rare public comment, this to defend Terrell Owens. I don't hear anybody taking up for Tony Romo...how does Canada play at home in the World Baseball Classic, with very reasonably priced tickets, and it doesn't sell out? In Montreal, the building is packed, no question...two weeks from today, you will wake up to read RandoMango to confirm that Toronto FC did indeed win their opening game at Kansas City on the road the night prior...Chelsea and Manchester United advanced in FA Cup play yesterday. Chelsea downed Coventry City 2-0, while United crushed Fulham 4-0...meantime, Jose Mourinho is again talking about potentially being United's next manager. There's a lot to like about Mourinho, especially his personality and resume, but his oftentimes skill killing defensive aproach isn't among those things...if A-Rod is merely out 6-9 weeks after his surgery on his hip, wise move getting that done now...at UFC96, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson proved he's well on the comeback trail, with a decision over Keith Jardine. Cannot wait to see Jackson back on top, where he will end up soon...finally a deal in the ongoing David Beckham drama, and he'll stay with AC Milan until the conclusion of the season and return to LA Galaxy in July. My scalping possibilities aren't liking that with Galaxy set for a trip to Toronto earlier in the year...back with your PTP later today...have a great day.

Say what you want about T.O., but let me defend him as well. For whatever hijinx he's been involved with in the locker room and in the peripheries, he's been a big contributor on the field and he's never caused trouble off the field. And he mocked Ray Lewis - all of which endear him to me.
Now, let's compare T.O. to a perhaps-hypothetical guy who is the first guy to go and get Gatorade for his teammates, cheers them and makes a spectacle of himself publicly in "support" of his teammates, yet between the sidelines hasn't contributed to his team for months, and then off the field he publicly defended his teammate who caused a nightmare for the organization solely because of a shared ethnicity, and deliberately insulted an entire ethnic group on camera and didn't even apologize for it until having been forced to do so. No amount of Gatorade-pimping and cheerleading makes up for that.
Oh, and Terrell Owens actually has more positive defensive accomplishments in his career than Jose Calderon does. So T.O. >>> Hose.
it's funny how the media seems to be championing the 42,000 as great. what a swerve.
oh, they all seem to think one good game means this thing is great all around. what about the 90 per cent of games which have been unwatchable blowouts?
Will A-Rod take the 6-9 weeks to get his bacne looked after?
Admit it, BK, you just wanted me to throw up the link for A-Rod tanning in Central Park so you can see there's no bacne at all...

Good thing I didn't suggest shrunken testicles would be his side effect...
