The Allen Wranglers. WTF

Getcha popcorn ready, Indoor Football League fans.

Terrell Owens is close to agreeing to a mid-six-figure contract to play with the Allen Wranglers in suburban Dallas, according to the Wranglers general manager Drew Pearson and owner Jon Frankel. The deal would also include an ownership stake of "likely 50 percent" for Owens, Frankel said.

Either he's hard up for money or he just really and truly loves football and it's the only way he can find worth in his life. I liked TO he was a headcase but he was fun to watch, still surprised no NFL team gave him a look this year.

Might be more desperate for attention than money at this point.

It's got to be something. He's tarnishing his already tarnished legacy. If he wasn't so out there he'd be considered one of the best to ever play wide out but because he's the "TO Show" his great play gets treated more like an after thought.

Statistically yes he is one of the best receivers in history, but because of his personality and off the field stuff a majority of people forget that. The casual football fan might think he's good but not as good as he really is.

i guess so. dude was a FREAK on the football field. don't think i've seen a receiver that much more physically dominant over the defense (maybe megatron or randy moss).

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
