Not sure if I fell asleep and woke up and it was 2004 again or what, but apparently another NFL team has severed ties with Terrell Owens and the future Hall of Famer is now looking for employment. Is it just me, or haven't we seen this show before?

It appears that signing the enigmatic Owens to a contract is much like getting really ripped and getting married in Las Vegas: It seems like a good idea at the time, but once your head clears and the bitching starts, you wonder what the hell you were thinking.

I'll admit that because he was such an amazing talent on the field, I have often overlooked all of the extra baggage Owens brought with him off of it. But no more. No more will I assume the now 35-year-old wideout will eventually grow up and become the team player that most in their mid 20s become. And no more will I blame any future blow-ups with teammates on the "other" guys. And no more will I defend a guy based soley on his talent level. And no more will I hope that Owens will sign with my favorite team, put his ever-increasing list of issues behind him and understand the concept of being a team member instead of being a member on a team. Those days are over, I'm done with TO and I don't care who hears me.

While I'm 100-percent committed to putting TO in the rear view, I know there will be several teams who fall into the trap of thinking Owens will get it this time, come into his new surroundings and simply play the game that he plays so well. They'll talk themselves into believing he will finally understand his days in the NFL are numbered and he needs to demonstrate the same type of professionalism on the sidelines and in the locker room as he does when between the lines. But they'll be wrong. TO, with help of his agent Drew Rosenhaus, will do and say all the right things early on but as soon as his new team alters its game plan to feature a receiver not named Owens, TO will take it way too personally like he always does and start to divide his new team like he has in the past.

It's a pattern of destruction usually reserved for episodes of Intervention, but the spinoff could be coming to an NFL city near you so be prepared for more of the same in 2009. If you think you've seen this show before it's because you have. It debuted in the San Francisco area a few years back and the syndicated version arrived in the Philadelphia area in 2004. If it seems familiar to you, that's because it is. Now, if I drive by my local theatre and Shrek 2 and Meet the Fockers are on the "Coming Next Week" sign, I'm really going to start freaking out.
