“What’s stopping Colin Kaepernick from being in the league?” Owens said to TMZ Sports. “Owners, general managers, it’s all about an opportunity. Same thing with Colin. You trying to tell me that he can’t play in the league right now?

Blackballed only counts for the brothers. The rest of us are cueballed.

Agree. Will do so, as I have done my entire life.

Owens was hit with a 2013 tax bill by the IRS that said he owed $430,000 in back taxes. In 2011, Owens told a judge in a Family Court dispute that despite earning $68.7 million in his career, he was broke. He was paying $125,000 a month in child support and mortgage payments to the four mothers of his four children.Feb 14, 2014

Should have invested a paltry 10% in the S&P 500 instead putting all those strippers through medical school.

Terell...Tom Brady you are not.

At 40 years old, Brady still plays like a winner.

Ouch. You hit poor Terrell in his fat nose. And his fat lip. And his thick skull...

TO no doubt is not looking to play, but get a cushy desk job doing tv coverage. He will never get that job because he’s a bull in a china shop retard and no amount of back handing him would get him to shut up.

With TO, the network would have to cut to commercials even more!

“I’m 66 and overweight I’ve been blackballed.”

That’s discrimination.
Sue the sob’s.

When the Cowboys finally cut him, I remember Bill Parcels saying that there are players who have a lot of talent but sometimes are such a pain in the ads it’s just not worth it . . .

Wjo wants to put up with their BS especially when it will cost owners money. I think the kneelers should have a clause in their contract that they have to pay the NFL and owners if they hurt the franchise.

When the Denver Broncos took a knee early this year I changed the channel within about 10 seconds and they became the MFL team denver donkeys and I have not watched a MFL game since. Make the kneelers pay. I probably won't watch anyway, but the advertisers will be hit really hard.

Pete Carroll didn’t care at all about the kneeling.

Of course the bastard did not care, he is a well known leftist.

It’s not called “blackballed” any more: it’s “people of color-balled” or “African-American-balled”—or in Owens’ case, “dirtballed”.

I never understood why he was “controversial”. I thought he was funny. And great!

He should be glad to be out of that cesspool with his brain intact (so far).

>>Unfortunately the politics of most NFL fans don’t regard those who support cop killers very highly.<<

Nicely done.

Heck, I know what he means! I'm being blackballed myself ... there isn't an owner or a general manager in the NFL who will hire me and pay me a premium wage as a non-starting starter!

The fact that I'm 63 and have bad knees is no excuse.

He seems to be a great guy, fundamentally. He probably didn’t take crap from management.
