T.O.'s status for Sunday moved from Suicidal to Probable
24 hours ago, Dallas Cowboy's receiver (#81) Terrell Owens was rushed to the Baylor Medical Center for a drug over-dose, first classified as a suicide-attempt by Dallas Police, but since changed due to medical confidentiality by Mr. Owens to a private, albeit wrong mix of pain-killers for a recent broken finger. Now, I know T.O. gets a lot of press and a lot of attention, partly caused by himself (e.g. T.O. slightly pulls a hamstring and is put on the stationary-bike for two weeks and dresses a la Lance Armstrong for his rehab) but why would T.O. turn to suicide? The Bushido's theory is that T.O. acts the way he does because he is very insecure and needs to deal with his hidden "demons". Insecurity can sometimes lead to inadequate feelings leading then to depression, thus leading the lost soul to the depths of suicide.
At noon today during Coach Parcell's weekly press conference 33 of 34 questions had to do with T.O.'s status. The last question asked, concerned Terry Glenn's status for this week. As for T.O.'s status for Sunday, his condition was moved from suicidal to probable.
On an end-note: If you get the chance drop in on Cowboy fan Brad over at Unlimited Mulligans and leave him a message to break his recent silence. We miss you Bradford. (Photo courtesy of the AP)

"Through early morning fog I see
visions of the things to be
the pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see . . .
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please . . .
The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it anyway
The losing card I'll someday lay
so this is all I have to say.
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please . . .
A brave man once requested me
to answer questions that are key
'is it to be or not to be'
and I replied 'oh why ask me?'
'Cause suicide is painless
it brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
. . . and you can do the same thing if you choose."
