DMN Blog: Oooh! T.O.'s on the hot seat!

So says ESPN's Mark Schlereth, whose TV work I usually enjoy. Not so impressed with this sample of his writing, though. He ranks T.O.'s seat as the third-hottest in the league.

3. Terrell Owens: It's time for Owens to prove he can get it done on the field without all the distractions and dropped passes.

T.O. managed to lead the league in touchdown catches during his terrible season. Did he drop too many passes? Yeah, but the dude did play with a mangled hand. The distractions are just part of the deal, although I don't think his teammates care nearly as much about T.O.'s antics as sensationalizing media types like me do.

I wouldn't even rank T.O. in the top three on his team in terms of guys with a ton to prove. He'd go below Tony Romo, Roy Williams, Leonard Davis, Julius Jones and Marcus Spears.
