T.O. signs with the Cowboys
IRVING, Texas - Jerry Jones was finishing yet another explanation of why he believes Terrell Owens will be on his best behavior with the Dallas Cowboys when his new star receiver chimed in.
“Jerry, I know what’s expected of me,” Owens said. “I won’t let you down.”
The Cowboys sure hope so, especially since they didn’t get it in writing.
The receiver who has proven he can wreak havoc on or off the field signed a three-year, $25 million contract with Dallas on Saturday. The deal includes a $5 million bonus and $5 million salary this season, but no added penalties should Owens pull any of the stunts that caused so many problems for his two previous teams, the San Francisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles.
His relationship with the Eagles soured only months after he led them to the Super Bowl, leading to a bitter breakup that ended with his release Tuesday.
“It’s more than his word, it’s about logic,” Jones said. “This is an opportunity for him to basically put it all together and come in here and have a very positive experience. ... Whoever got him after those two experiences was going to get a more knowledgeable and educated player.”
Agent Drew Rosenhaus said Jones never requested anything beyond a standard NFL contract. He may not have wanted to bring it up considering Rosenhaus said there were six other teams also aggressively seeking Owens.
“There was so much interest in Terrell, there was no reason to do anything but that kind of deal,” Rosenhaus said.

Re: T.O. signs with the Cowboys
The Redskins archenemy gets a one-up.
I'm definitely going to the Skins/Cowboys DC home game this season.
Depending on when the game is in Dallas, I may go to Texas to see that one too.
Good move for the Cowgirls, tbh.
We do have Pittsburgh's Randle El though.

I hope t.o. starts throwing tantrums right away. :)
Re: T.O. signs with the Cowboys
I don't care either way what the 'Skins do, but being as I hate the Cowgirls though, I'm not sure where I stand on this one.
I guess even though I despise the Cowboys, I have to pull for a Texas team.
