And this is exactly why Nick Eatman from DC.com is one of my favorite writers, read here.

Man, this is getting old.

Wonder when it will get old to ESPN and the rest of the national media and for all the fans and critics that are apparently holding onto their "I-told-you-so" cards and just keep looking for the right moment to bring it out.

Give it up.

This is Terrell Owens. This is who he is. He wants the football. He wants it all the time. He never can have it enough.

And when the Cowboys don't win a football game, then trust me, Terrell Owens certainly thinks he should've got the ball more. Just like any other wide receiver worth his salt.

If they're a competitor, they should want the ball on every play. Regardless if they've had the 17 or 18 passes thrown his way, coupled with a couple of running plays, too.

He could've had 35 passes thrown his way. That doesn't mean he won't be wondering why the 36th one didn't come his way as well.

That's Owens. Always has been.

But why are we surprised? Why is this still a story?

It's like there are some people out there just hoping and praying that Owens will indeed divide up this locker room like he supposedly did in San Francisco and Philadelphia.

Those are probably the same people who said Jerry Jones and Bill Parcells couldn't work together and tried to light that fire as much as possible.

It just doesn't make sense.

Owens wants the football. He wants to score. He wants to celebrate and he wants to headline the highlight shows every week.

So when that doesn't happen, he's going to be upset. And that doesn't just mean at his teammates and coaches. He knows he got the ball thrown quite a bit on Sunday, catching seven passes for 71 yards, including a touchdown.

He probably also knows that Redskins cornerback Shawn Springs pretty much shut him down, at least in the first half.

Frustration. It happens. It doesn't always signal the sign of trouble.

So in his post-game press conference on Sunday, T.O. is asked by a reporter if he thinks he got the ball enough.

Right there, that's the problem. Why don't we place some blame on the question that was asked? If you didn't like his answer, an obvious answer at that, then maybe it's a dumb question. Or maybe it's a question with the sole intention of stirring the pot. Either way, it was unnecessary because we should know better than that.

"I would say no. I'm a competitor, and I want the ball."

So again, what's the problem? That's what Owens actually said.

Word! I really hope Eatman never moves on to ESPN because for whatever reason once you start working there you seem to change.

ESPN used to be about giving us sports as it happened on the field. But now it's just about creating some BS headlines and former players and talking heads giving us speculation about anything and everything but what happens on the field.
