Jerry Rice at age 35 recovered from an ACL tear in 3.5 months!!!!

If that can happen, then T.O. will be back in 2011!!!

Junior Seau tore his pectoral muscle, achilles, and broke his arm in back-to-back-to-back seasons from 2004-2006. The Pats kept him from 2006-2009.

Ricky Proehl was retired in 2006 and signed in the middle of that season. He couldn’t play a lick (compared to a November 2011 Terrell Owens) before 2006 and he got signed!!!!

That is likely a possibility because he had been spotted at a few charity basketball events this past offseason, including one with music artist Chris Brown.

I wonder if he throws himself or the VH1 show under the bus?

He was still fun to watch on Sundays!

While I never was the biggest fan of T.O., I have to say that the guy has always impressed me with his work ethic and on-field production.

‘Cause all they can say now is “we never pay a lot of money for talent, and we always come up one or two games short”

Is it smart to return to football so quickly? Probably not, but I could see a 37-year-old receiver looking to stay relevant taking that chance.

Never mind that he never got in trouble, never slacked on the field, only put up great numbers everywhere he played (except Buffalo, but who could blame himf or that), and did everything in his power to win the one Super Bowl he participated in despite a very serious injury.

Yeah, let’s knock him for exercising that freedom of speech thing, especially in light of snarcky comments that show up here in almost every article (from the commentors and the editors on this site). Yes, that makes a whole lot of sense. He’s a loudmouth loser, but guys here are just internet tough guys I suppose.

For instance, his two biggest targets over the years, McNabb and Romo, both receive a fair amount of criticism from the armchair commentors and editors 90% of the time either is mentioned; yet, T.O. is scrutinized for conveying similar feelings from a teammate’s perspective on both guys. Tell me how does that work?

Oh, and whatever you say, he’s a Hall of Famer. The people with half a brain and no agenda (I never rooted for any team he played on), can see from a mile away that he was a great receiver, along with Moss the best of his era.

Why were the lockout workouts even mentioned here? This just shows you can get hurt doing anything.

Umm……..no it didn’t.

TO didn’t blow out his ACL during a lockout work out. He blew it out filming a reality show that he would have been filming regardless of whether there was a lockout or not.

This is not the first offseason that TO has worked on reality shows.

So why try to tie this injury to the lockout?

You know, it’s ok to just print the truth without sensationalizing it. We’d still read it , we promise.

Haha you’re going to start with Irvin on your “WR’s that don’t belong in the Hall of Fame” list?

Great receiver – one of the all time best

There is, to counter that argument, his performance for the Eagles in the Super Bowl against the Patriots.

I wonder just how different his career would have been if he had kept his mouth shut.

At least no team is on the hook paying this bonehead an inordinate amount of money!

What’s funny is that teams continue to overlook the locker room distractions and then act suprised when he does it to them. Someone will sign him midseason thinking that they will be the ones that will turn him around.
