Terrell Owens is still looking for a place to live this season. After being
refused a rental property in Orchard Park because of "drama" he would bring to
the neighborhood - the owners of the property probably got more "drama" than if
they had actually allowed Owens, who claims to be a good neighbor, to rent the
property.
Snubbed on renting the property, Owens put up the following, now infamous
twitter post:
sittin here trippin about residents @ 1 Deer Run Court wn't rent 2 me b/c they
said they dn't want any drama n their neighborhood!! LOL!!! Wow!!
Now I understand twitter, I use it to help readers of my blog know whats going
on not only with the blog but what I feel about other things. You get 140
characters to express your thoughts. What I don't get is contractions like dn't
and wn't - if your going to omit vowels for space reasons, why include the
apostrophe? Would dont or wont be just as many characters, and as clost to
grammatically correct? But the use of twitter, texting, facebook, etc as the
downfall of the English language is not why were here.
Owens does not seem bitter over the snub, but shocked, and has also showed his
appreciate for the fan reaction to the case, with some people offering to house
T.O. as a guest for the season.
Now to my point. Owens has gotten himself a label around the league as being
bad for a locker room, and a quarterback killer. I don't want to dwell too much
on that, really because it is open for interpretation. But there is a reason
Owens is in Buffalo, and it is probably more than what we have been told. There
was probably a very short list of teams that would take Owens, and the Bills
needed Owens.
Since getting to Buffalo, T.O. has been very receptive to the fan base. Here is
his chance to make a better name for himself, and promoting the Bills at the
same time. Set up the Terrel Owens Guest House contest - let those fans who
want to host Owens as a guest submit stories as to why they think the Bills wide
reciever should live with them - and pick a winner for every month of the
season. Owens gets a place to live, and you can't tell me that won't do wonders
for his "reality" television show. If I were a VH1 producer I would be drooling
over that idea.
To make sure Owens could maintain his character and not be considered a mooch,
have him help out with the grocery bills, or even better, make a donation of
what you think would be fair rent value for the month to a charity of the
winners choice.
