Terrell Owens. Poor Sportsmanship. Outrageously poor sportsmanship. Egregiously poor sportsmanship.

Pardon... I threw my back out again and I've been self medicating with wine. Helps the back... doesn't help the posting.

Owens on the Dallas star:



Pom-poms, and Sharpies, little skits in the End Zone, and celebratory dances annoy me. Nothing more than that. In fact, the real annoyance there is listening to the TV and Radio block-heads refer to those bits of juvenile preening as "creativity". That stuff's creative? Piffle.

But Owens stepped over the line (my own personal line) in Dallas that day. And I've never been able to root for him since.

He didn't draw any blood that day, but I put that performance right up there with:

The Albert Haynesworth stomp. (Guy has no helmet on):



Ndamukong Suh stomp:



Bill Romanowski spits in J.J. Stokes’ face (there has to be better video out there, but I couldn't find it):



Of the four instances Romo is the only guy who was man enough to come out, right after the incident, admit he was wrong, and apologize. But even so, he went from one of my favorite ex Niners, to the bum who spit in J.J.'s face.

What was I talking about? Give me a minute.
