First, he started catching crucial passes, which was the primary reason I started liking the guy. Then, he stopped trying to kill himself and subsequently causing galactic media frenzies. But the real clincher for me was this:
IRVING, Texas (AP) - Terrell Owens has a message for Jessica Simpson: Stay
away.Simpson has become Public Enemy No. 1 among Dallas Cowboys fans because of a link being made between her appearance at Sunday's game and the poor performance of her new boyfriend, quarterback Tony Romo.
Right now, Jessica Simpson is not a fan favorite - in this locker room or in Texas
Stadium," Owens said Wednesday.The Cowboys lost 10-6 to the Philadelphia Eagles and Romo had what was statistically the worst game of his career, all while Simpson sat in a luxury box wearing a pink No. 9 jersey she proudly showed off for television cameras.
The problem for her is, Romo's previous worst game came last December at home to the Eagles when then-girlfriend Carrie Underwood was in attendance.
"With everything that has happened, obviously with the way Tony played and the comparison between her and Carrie Underwood, I think a lot of people feel she has taken his focus away," Owens said, echoing the chatter on sports-talk radio and blogs. "Other than that, she was high on my list until last week."
