Owens spoke with ESPN Radio 103.3 in Dallas on Wednesday and claimed when he made mention about his grandmother it wasn't a shot at Parcells but that was basically saying the legendary coach is a guy that obviously has his ways of coaching.

Owens also told ESPN Radio he believed Parcells never went out of his way to improve their relationship and neither did Owens.

Owens says he tried to practice hard and play hard last season, but he did feel that Parcells mocked him during the preseason when he was injured.

"I think that by him saying that I need to get on the practice field and I that I needed to show him what I can do, I just felt him knowing the type of player that I am and what I've done to play through injuries I felt like he kind of made a mockery out of me in front of the media to say that," Owens said. "In that sense I kind of lost a sense of respect. But other than that I didn't allow it to deter me of how I practiced because I was seriously injured. "

Gee Simon, can't you go 2 days without bringing him up?...admit it, you wish Brady was throwing to my man TO...

T.O. is a media magnet, the writers are secretly in love with him. He keeps them employed, kinda like OJ Simpson made court TV what it is today, they constantly say they hate him and thank God for him every night. I constantly wondered why no one was concerned about Vanderjackazz during training camp when he wasnt practicing, his personality was just as quirky and his role just as important and finally his failure greater than T.O.

Who's Next ? 1 Very Good Receiver Avilable. Will Consider All Trades........hello? Is This Oakland?

Well simon you If dont know by now I love a good thread and this my friend ranks high In my book
Owens is the best all round wideout in history far as i'm concerned
We never here about him taking off games.
But one thing puzzels me my friend why is that the man 70to 80%of football fans black and white seem to think is a bum but lead all wideouts in touch?.
Now say he does'nt drop those passes what would be the excuse answer me that Sir!

I believe that If fans start looking at the game and stop feeding off the personal attact of some of these washed up ringless comentaters
the NFL fan base would go to even greater heights.
For example "boomer and randy "the player hater"cross

DT IN AUSTIN your right about that but have you ever thought about how much faith you would have in a guy like bill parsels.
Im mean have you ever seen a man that threw players under the bus more than him and kansa coach billself.

There are as many opinions about Terrill as there are stars in the sky. I think the media is to blame for a lot of the things going around about T.O.
The rest are due to T.O. After the overdose, I thought I saw a slightly different T.O. I think a lot of people misunderstand him for whatever reason. Some people understand him only too well. The team says he wasnt a distraction in the locker room. I am not sure if I believe that. But regardless, if Jerry keeps him, I think we have to give him another chance to put his money where his mouth is. There's been a lot of stuff going on in past years and it had to have affected him. Even if a lot of it was his fault. He is a very good player and he works really hard.

Yep...to me he can run his mouth all he wants as long as he gets me 6-8 catches, +100 yards and a score, game in and game out...

[Bette]

Yeah, me too. It would be easier to put up with the other stuff if he did.
