T.O., Deion a questionable pairing

JFE: T.O., Deion a questionable pairing

Time for a little reader participation. We're playing a game of "Where have we heard this before" with some of Mr. Initials comments Friday in response to Parcells saying he needs to see something from his hamstrung receiver before Sept. 10.

T.O. said: "I can reiterate. If he wants to see something, he has 10 years of film to go back and look on. Like I said, I'm very confident, and that's not to
discredit what he's saying."

Guess who used almost that exact phraseology with regard to tape last week while doing an interview on Mike and Mike on ESPN Radio? Give up?

Deion Sanders. His rant included saying if Parcells wants to see T.O. he has 10-12 years worth of film to watch, saying Parcells needs T.O. more than T.O. needs Parcells and ended with a parting shot: "I mean when was the last time Parcells won anything?"

Obviously, T.O. heard and decided that he and Deion were of a same mind. Or else he and T.O. have been chitchatting. Either way, I liked things a lot better when Michael Irvin was his Cowboys mentor, not Deion.

Oh, and by the way, Deion, when has T.O. ever won anything?
