According to a police report, Terrell Owens has been hospitalized after attempting suicide.
Wow. Wednesdays are usually a very busy news day in the NFL, but who could've forecasted this?
If this is true, and I have my own reservations about this, you can pretty much forget about Terrell Owens playing again this season. If Owens has attempted suicide, it's obvious that the man needs professional help. Until he seeks that assistance, football is way down on the priority list. If the Dallas Cowboys won't step in and get Owens the help he'd need (if this is true), than new NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell needs to.
I have some doubts about whether or not Owens actually attempted to commit suicide. I'm reserving judgment on this until all the facts are in, but here's a quick list for why I'm skeptical.
1. In the history of mankind, few individuals have been more in love with themselves than Terrell Owens. This is the same guy who coined the phrase "I love me some me", so why would he take some "kill me some me" action on Tuesday night?
2. The bottle of pills was empty, but that doesn't necessarily mean Owens ingested all of them.
3. If he was having an adverse reaction to pain medication, it's possible that he didn't have the full mental capacity to answer the EMT's "Were you attempting to harm yourself" question correctly.
Stay tuned on this one. As if you have a choice.
