More From Terrell Owens

I Think People Change, But The Media, They Never Allowed Me To Change. They Never Allowed Me To Be A Better Person

Jerry (rice) Played Until He Was 42. At 39, I Ran A 4.43 40-yard Dash. You Look At The Number Of Dropped Balls And The Way Guys Are Playing Now And You Can't Honestly Say I Can't Do Better.

I May Not Say It All The Time Or I May Not Pray As Much As I Need To, But I Am Not Forgetting Where I Came From And How I Got To Be Where I Am Today.

Right Is Right And Wrong Is Wrong.

This Is Gods World This Is Not The Medias World.

There Has To Be A Beginning Somewhere And My Thing Is That I Am Going To Give It All I Got.

Say I Had Been With A Guy Like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning Or Drew Brees All Of My Career. Are You Kidding Me?

I Am The Terrell Off The Field Who Is Laid Back And This Is Me.

People Forget That I'm A Human Being, Just Because I Play A Sport That Everybody Loves. We're Human. We're Not Invincible. We Share The Same Feelings And Emotions That People On The Outside Feel. I Don't Think People Really Understand That.

I Don't Have No Friends. I Don't Want No Friends. That's How I Feel.

I Have No Friends

Everybody Is Not Going To Be Squeaky Clean. All The Guys They Are Giving These Marketing Endorsement Deals Are The Ones Going Out There Getting In Trouble. That Is What Is Really Puzzling To Me. They Will Take A Chance On The So Call Good Image Guy And They Are The Ones That Go Out There And Screw It All Up. You Have Not Seen My Face Go Across The Screen For Any Off The Field Problems, Period.

I Think At Some Point During The Course Of The Game, I Will Have An Impact - Whether It's Blocking Or Whether It's Catching The Football.

I Have Donated Money To The Kids Overseas, The Open Hand Project And The Homeless.

When I Go Out There And Play I Just Play.

But If You Look At The Big Scheme Of Things, I Have Never Failed, Regardless Of Anything I Have Had To Go Through: From Dallas, To The Sharpie, To Me Getting Involved With A Debate With My Coach, A Lot Of People Look To See My Fail.

Get Your Popcorn Ready, 'cause I'm Gonna Put On A Show.

I'm Human; That's What People Don't Realize.

Like My Boy Tells Me; If It Looks Like A Rat And Smells Like A Rat, By Golly, It Is A Rat.

I Just Feel Like I Know What I Bring To The Game. Very Confident In What I Do.

I Had My Family Before I Played Football.

You Never Know What A Person Is Going Through, Regardless Of How Much Money They Make Or However Great A Life You Think They're Living.

You Have A White Guy As An Announcer And Sportscaster. Me, I'm Black. I Do It And I've Already Done Some Stuff In The Past. We're More Expressive Than The White Guys. You Look At The Skill Players. We're The Ones That Get Into The End Zone. We Get In The End Zone More Than They Do.

I'm Smart Enough To Know When I've Done Something Wrong, But I Don't Understand This. Guys Are Beating Their Wives, Getting Duis And Doing Drugs, And I Get National Attention For A Sharpie? People Are Personally Attacking Me, Calling Me A Classless Asshole Because I Did Something Creative During A Game. Why?

That Goes With The Saying That You Call On God A Lot Of Times And You Pray For Things And It May Not Happen At That Moment.

I've Only Been On One Vacation Ever. I Just Went To Acapulco Before Training Camp.

But [sunday] As You Saw, It Was Obviously [the Media] Took Some More Than Initiative To Try To Get Me To Kind Of Go Down The Wrong Path. I Know The Last Two Teams That I've Been On, I Felt Like I Left Those Teams Prematurely Due To Media Interviews That I've Done And Things Kind Of Taken Out Of Context And They Created Sort Of A Media Whirlwind In The Locker Room And Things Kind Of Went Downhill From There. I'm Just Trying To Do The Best Job I Can Do As Far As Answering The Questions And Trying To Be A Better Teammate And Not Try To Throw People Under The Bus.

That Just Shows You Their Type Of Class And Integrity. They Claim To Be First Class And The Best Organization. It's An Embarrassment And It Shows The Lack Of Class That They Really Have.....the Eagles Would Be Undefeated Right Now With Green Bay's Quarterback. We'd Probably Be In A Much Better Position With Him On The Team (instead Of Present Eagles Quarterback Donavon Mcnabb).

I Would Not Have Gone To Philly If I Really Did Not Have My Free Agency Right, If I Did Not Have A Case, Period.

For Whatever Reason, God Has A Plan For Me.

Life And Death. At Some Point We're Gonna Leave This World. Do I Know When? Absolutely Not.

I Don't Have To Play Football.

I'll Do Whatever It Takes To Win.

Whatever It Takes

I Feel Now I Can Take My Talent Through The Roof.

I Have Done A Lot Of Things Off The Field But I Feel Like In My Heart I Dont Really Have To Publicize What I Do For People Because It Is From My Heart.

Once I Step On The Field, By The Things I Do In Practice And The Way I Practice, You Can't Tell That I Don't Love The Game. But I Just Know It Deep Down.

I Don't See Outside Of Me.

I Feel Like I'm A Basketball Player In A Football Uniform.

What You See On The Field Is My Job.

I Feel Like Football Players Are Overworked And Underpaid Compared To Any Other Sports.

It Doesn't Matter What People Say About Me, Whether They're In Philly, Or Whether They're In San Francisco... All Across The World.

A Lot Of Emotional Stress That People Go Through, Some People Figure Out A Way To Handle It. They Have A Strong Enough Support System To Keep Going And Keep Moving Forward. And Some People, They Feel Like They Don't Have That Outlet.

Instead Of Me Having A Breakdown, I'm Focusing On Me Having A Breakthrough.

I Feel Like I Know It Is From My Heart And God Knows It Is For A Good Cause, It Is Not Necessary To Be Made Public.

God May Not Be There When You Want Him But He Is Always On Time.

I May Be A Public Figure, But Really, I'm Just Like A Guy Who Could Be In Your Family And Have Some Difficult Things Happen To Him.

Everything That I Have Done That The Media Sees As An Obstacle, I Have Over Come It.

Ill Watch The Highlights Every Now And Then But, As Far As Watching The Game, I Feel Like I Am The Game.

You Should Know How To Do Your Job.

As You Get To Know Me, You Kind Of Figure Me Out, That I'm Not As Probably As Bad Of A Guy That I've Been Reported To Be. I'm Not That Jerk.

Like I Have Said All Along, I Have The Best Doctor Of All, And That Is God. You Can't Argue With A Guy Like That.

I Wrote The Book Not To Prove People Wrong But Just To Get The Insight On Who I Am As A Person.

I've Never Really Thought Of Myself As Having An Ego. I've Always Found Myself As Having A Lot Of Confidence. I Know I Have A Lot Of Great Ability. I Know What I Bring To The Table.

I Left A Lot - A Lot - Of Touchdowns On The Field Throughout The Last Two Or Three Years.

I'm Going To Have My Family After I Play Football.

Everybody Is Not Going To Be Squeaky Clean.

Off The Field I'm Down To Earth. I'm A Very Caring Person. I'm A Very Giving Person.

You Have Not Seen My Face Go Across The Screen For Any Off The Field Problems, Period.

When I Step On The Field, You Know What You Gonna Get.

All I Can Tell Everybody Is, I'm The Same Guy, Just On A Different Team.

I Am Sure I Lost Out On A Few Million Or More In Money But I Am Happy With The Team That I Am On And The Quarterback That I Am With.

Don't Say I Don't Get Along With My Teammates. I Just Don't Get Along With Some Of The Guys On The Team.

The Only People That Really Matter Are The People That Are In My Inner Circle.

Growing Up As A Little Kid, I Wasn't Always This Size. I Got Picked On A Lot.

I Think There Is Something Bigger In Store For Me.

I Never Even Watched Football Growing Up. I Just Play The Game.

Like I Always Said, If I'm One Of The Top Players In The Game, Pay Me Like I'm One Of The Top Players In The Game.

It Doesn't Matter What Any Of My Teammates Have Said About Me.

If You Align Expectations With Reality, You Will Never Be Disappointed.

Everything That I've Gone Through Since The End Of 2010, From Me Finding Out About My Financial Adviser Stealing, Mismanaging My Money - That Affected Everything, From Child Support, Mortgages, To Me Having To Sell My Properties, Me Being In And Out Of Court Trying To Modify My Child Support. It's A Lot To Deal With At One Time.

I Feel Like It Was A Little Disrespectful But You Know What I Feel Like, I Have Been Successful, Blessed And I Keep My Faith In God, Man, And I Just Keep It Moving.

This Is A Dirty Business, That Is Why I Go Out And Play With My Heart. I Feel Like Football Players Are Overworked And Underpaid Compared To Any Other Sports. This Is Like A Nine To Five. No Guaranteed Contracts, And That Is The Worst Thing About It.

A Lot Of People Think I'm Stuck Up. Pretty Much That I'm Arrogant. I Only Do That When I'm On The Field.

I Just Feel Like With God You Can't Be Defeated.

I'm Not Gonna Waste Your Time, So I Wouldn't Expect You To Waste My Time.

Wasting My Time

But I Know In My Heart What I'm Doing Is Right.

I Didn't Know Who My Daddy Was Until I Was 10 Or 12. Surprising As It May Seem, He Was Living Right Across The Street.

I'm Content Where I Am. I Know I Am Going To Be A Cowboy For Life.

I Feel Like With Me Being A Big Part Of Any Offense, Then The Numbers Are Going To Come.

God Blessed Me To Play Football.

All That Matters To Me Now Is My Family.

Exposure Is Exposure, Whether It's Good Or Bad. But You Know What? You Live And You Learn, And I Know Who To Trust And Who Not To Trust. I'm In Control Of What I'm In Control Of, And That's Me Coming In Here And Being Productive On The Field. And As Long As I'm Keeping My Nose Clean And Doing The Right Thing, Then I'm Ok.

It Doesnt Matter What People Say About Me, I Weather The Storm.

I've Always Been Pretty Much A Quiet Person. When I Was Little, I Got Picked On A Lot. After I Went Through All That, I Pretty Much Kept To Myself.

I Don't Need The Recognition And I Did Not Expect It.

I Don't Want That To Be The Headline.

I Know The Microphones And Cameras Are On Me. They're Looking At My Gestures And Taking It And Running With It Because Of Things That Have Happened In The Past. It's Very Unfair.

A Lot Of People Have To Deal With The Feeling That Their Worlds Are Caving In.

A Lot Of People Expect To See The Same Type Of Character That They See On The Field Off The Field, And That Throws Them For A Loop.

I Know My Body Better Than Anything, Better Than Anybody.

When I Was A Kid, I'd Watch Pro Football On Tv And I'd See Someone Make A Play And I'd Say, 'i Wish That Could Be Me.' But Then I'd Have To Wonder, 'could I Make That Big Play?'

People Have Doubted Me And Criticized Me My Whole Life, And That's Why I'm The Way I Am.

Yes, I Am A Narcissist. The Best, Too.
