‘SI’ Writer Lays Down The Law On Dunce T.O.

Commentary on Terrell Owens from the his SI.com column today:

And, though I won’t harp on it, let me say I certainly give more credence to the initial police report than I do the “I didn’t attempt suicide” admission by Owens the next day. Why have we all been so quick to dismiss the Dallas police report from officers on the scene? The report said Owens had attempted suicide, and said his publicist Kim Etheredge told police Owens had been depressed, and said that when officers asked Owens if he had attempted to harm himself, he said, “Yes.” Yet just because Owens denied it all a day later and said he didn’t remember being questioned because he was too groggy, he’s getting a hall pass in many circles. Not in this one.

Yeah, you tell him, Peter King! You’re not giving that bully troublemaker T.O. a hall pass even though you have no idea what actually happened! Yeah! Don’t give him a hall pass in your circle! Stand up to the media mob!

I’d go down the Linc and tell off Peter King myself tonight, but, wouldn’t you know it, I don’t have a hall pass.
