Terrell Owens a late arrival to Bengals camp

The “T.O. Show” will not air at its regularly scheduled time on Thursday.

Terrell Owens missed his overnight flight to Cincinnati, forcing the team to reschedule an introductory press conference that was scheduled late Thursday morning.

Owens caught a later flight Thursday and the Bengals will break out the popcorn for T.O. after their evening practice.  It’s uncertain if Owens will practice tonight or step on the field tomorrow. The rest of the Bengals, including Antonio Bryant, hit the field Thursday morning.

We’ll update you shortly on what Owens had for his in-flight meal.

    Gregg please let us know what his BM looked like after that in-flight meal.. America is waiting patiently

  4. aec4 says: Jul 29, 2010 9:38 AM

    why do these athletes religiously miss flights? It’s not terribly difficult.

  5. WhoDeySood5 says: Jul 29, 2010 9:38 AM

    wheaties most likely…..breakfast of champions

  6. Kaz says: Jul 29, 2010 9:42 AM

    I thought Bryant was going to be PUP’d and possibly released? I thought he may never walk again and even according to Florio, cause for “buyers remore”.
    I guess when the lockerroom of “bad character, poor judgement, risky draftees, busts, and misfits” don’t give you any drama, or as much drama and controversy as the upstanding well drafted, high character folks of Baltimore and Pitt, you’ve got to try to make up some.
    Sounds like bad information or poor attempt to stir up some controvery to me. By the way, I thought you said their will be issues when T.O wanted his 81 back? Seems like that went smooth too.

    The T.O. show has started already. I have been sick of hearing about T.O. and his attention getting antics for years. Now that he is in Cincy, my area, it will be worse.
    He and Ocho will be competing for camera time.
    The Bengals should be the team to move to LA. That would put them near Hollywood.

    Hopefully he doesn’t eat anything on the plane, so he can save his appetite for a three way and some cheese coneys!
    Who Dey!!!!

    Sun Chips…LMAO. I was thinking Planter’s peanuts. Huge news story!

  10. CdnMike says: Jul 29, 2010 9:49 AM

    If Wheaties are the breakfast of champions, shouldn’t T.O. eat Frosted Flakes?

  11. ricebowl says: Jul 29, 2010 9:52 AM

    Jesus Kaz, don’t get your panties in a bunch.

  12. BengalsDouche2 says: Jul 29, 2010 9:54 AM

    Yeah of course it’s Florio trying to start trouble where there is none. It’s not uncommon for any athlete to miss a flight. But since it’s T.O. and the Bengals, he had to make a special post about it. Way to go Florio. Quit hatin.

  13. pwndabear says: Jul 29, 2010 9:56 AM

    Nice way to start the “redemption” process, TO.

  17. njhitman says: Jul 29, 2010 10:04 AM

    If any of us was late for our first day of work what do you think would happen ? The show starting already in Cinn can’t wait for the main event .

  18. WhodeyTN says: Jul 29, 2010 10:05 AM

    Oh no!!!!

  19. BengalsDouche2 says: Jul 29, 2010 10:05 AM

    Yeah you rush him into Cincy style chili and that could put a hurtin on his stomach. Slow the ponies here. He’ll get it eventually. lol

    Let’s see, Joe Kay(AP) wrote the article, Gregg R. posted the story, and you should learn to laugh a little.

    I’m sure his highness Bret FAR VRAH is real jealous and we will start hearing about his ankle…his fart content…when Childress will come down to Hattiesburg to kiss Bret’s balls…all that kind of stuff.

  23. odell says: Jul 29, 2010 10:12 AM

    Probabaly the most important part of this article, is that Bryant hit the field for practice today, should shut the people up thinking he’s going to be on the PUP list or should be cut or whatever else you haters wanna come up with to make you feel that your sorry, overrated, old and pathetic teams are the front runners…
    Who Dey

    Florio said that the Bengals were looking to cut Bryant…
    WHA HAPPENED?!

  27. Eat@Joes says: Jul 29, 2010 10:27 AM

    What if TO keeps quiet like he did in Buffalo last year…..What if Antiono returns to form of 2008…..What if Chad is the Chad from 2006 or so……would you want to be the defense that had to defend 85,81, and 89? and then have to stop Cedric Benson from running wild?? Every D knew the Bengals were going to run the ball last year and they still did it, if the passing comes along and the D is at least as good as last year……

  28. STEELCHUCK says: Jul 29, 2010 10:30 AM

    Ahhh… Ocho-overated and Hands-of-Stone Owens playing together… I give it 3 games before the drama begins…

    Between Ocho-Stinko, Ontonio “short fuse” Bryant & TOE….Let the massive Train Wreck begin!

    yeah way to assume! I’m a hater huh? I’m a lifelong bengals fan and listen to nothing but hate from everyone about our organization. Even after a year where we swept the almighty Ravens and Steelers. But I’m not allowed to hate on anyone else? Every minor detail that any of these guys on here can get on the Bengals, they have to hate on us for it. OMG the Bengals served macaroni salad instead of potato salad for lunch at camp! get out the popcorn b/c it’s gonna be a circus! get a life and try hating on a team that actually deserves it.

    weeeell, TO did miss the fliiiiiight…..so i think it’s good information. but keep telling yourself ‘he was on that plane!’ i’m sure if you think about it long enough it will happen retroactively, and this calculated, obviously manufactured “controversy” will disolve.

  36. Steeler Fan in Germantown says: Jul 29, 2010 10:53 AM

    It’s just T.O. making himself the center of attention again. Get used to it Bengal fans.
    It won’t be long before he tries his divide and conquer tactics with your coach and QB, and the rest of the team.
    I realize y’all hate to hear this stuff…..you get all defense and begin name calling. But, it’s his established pattern. You will rue the day that Mike Brown signed him. Believe me.
    Nuff said.

    You’re probably right, TO hates winning and signed for a lesser contract than he initially wanted just so he could come and sabotage one of his best friends’ team….. he’s probably plotting on the plane right now how he can ruin our team and lose more fans/money

  38. BengalsDouche2 says: Jul 29, 2010 11:15 AM

    Steeler Fan in Germantown: believe you? Have you had T.O. on your team? Bills fans seem to be happy with him for what he was able to do on a depleted team. He had Fitzpatrick throwing to him all year. Never heard a peep out of T.O. all year. As a matter of fact Bills coaches called the Bengals to rave about how great of a player he was to coach. And they had no reason to do that. He was off their team regardless if they made the call or not. This post by you is simply trying to take attention off of the sweep last year and the obvious sweep of you guys again this year. Then after that I’m sure you’ll blame the refs or something/someone else for you loss besides the fact that you guys suck.

    Yes your right. He missed the flight. Um, Ok. Sorry, not as juicy as a starting QB who is a serial rapist, or the bickering qb controvery, draft busts, secondary drama of the “Superbowl Favorites”. So if that’s “controversy” I’ll take it anyday.
