[@SuperOmnicronsj44]

Yep, now all he can do is complain. He isnt on tv , is not a regular panelist. He got broke with bad investments ... wonder how it would've been if he had been a better teammate .. better with the media. I remember Steve Young BEGGED him to go and represent himself as a 49er, and a great player , but he chose another path. How keeping it real WENT WRONG. Deion was his own man, flashy. Whole lot of dudes were .... but for some reason T.O. got dogged ..wonder why that is?

It isnt the Hall of Fame's fault he had bad investments. I mean is the Hall of Fame the lottery or something?

I grew up in Akron, Akron Pros were a NFL football team in the beginning in 1920s, but prior to that we had Pro teams- Canton Bull dogs, Akron Indians Fritz Pollard, was the first Black football coach, he was a- All- American at Brown University, play for the Akron Pros, and Akron Indians. he later was at Canton in 2005, Rose bowl 2015, but point is he should be there in the hall, while he was alive. He part of NFL History point it nothing but damn politics in who they decide to allow in. I wonder how many minority serve on the voting process in Canton, yeah I am a Ohio native, but live in the Carolinas now, but I am a Historian .

[@myworstenemy680]

They should call it the Hall of Friends. Owens was a game changer, and a defensive coordinator's worst nightmare. I don't get into the "who's the best" debates, but when T.O was at his peak, there were no WR's in the NFL better than him. My Dad always said, "The only Fair in the world is the State Fair, and it comes to Sacramento once a year".

[@willjoestar7039]

Should have been 1st ballot without question !!!

[@karlkilcrease51]

There was a sports writer, Dr. Z, who vowed that as long as Kenny Stabler was alive he would with hold his Hall of Fame vote from him. During this interview he didn't say why, however the year Stabler died he was voted into the Hall of Fame. L. C. Greenwood is another example of sports writers overlooking the obvious. L. C. has more sacks than Joe Greene, but the stadium announcer would attribute Greenwood's sacks to Joe. After an injury, the doctors suggested he wear high top spikes. The Steelers trainer painted them gold, and if you notice once on tape, he would extend his leg in the air exposing his gold shoes. My question is why had he been overlooked for his rightful place in the Hall of Fame.

[@randykirchhevel7311]

Hall of Fame is so goofy when making choices of inductees and makes poor decisions when it comes time for those special players to be taken. Some guys have to wait tell their dead to get in and never get a chance to stand up in front of everyone to tell them what their career was like and all about and somebody in their family down the line has to go a speak for them and not knowing much about them or have any idea what to say. I am glad Terrell made a point by making a stand. Some people probably think it was a unexpected thing to do but he had his reason's especially when people were knit picking him when there other players of his caliber that were much worse then Terrell Owens but somehow were respected much better for what ever reason. Refs do the same thing in Football when making calls one minute they say it's like this then when the other team does then the story changes. Its like there is no such thing as being fare. To much favoritism in the NFL.

Him explaining his alleged reasons is admission that he regrets it. And Eric Dickerson, and the other dude discussing it, is merely a cover to make excuses for it

Brady, Manning, Jordan, Rothlisberger, Kobe, Shaq, Elway, Sherman, Iverson, Jerry Rice, Moss, Wilt, Magic, Bird, Ray Lewis all were cocky and I could keep going. It's not just wide receivers. Receiver is a dependent position. If the quarterback doesn't get them the ball their numbers and value go down. If those things happen they don't get paid. They will blame the receiver far more than the exalted quarterback. Ask Odell Beckham Jr., Eli got him the ball he was playing at an all time level Baker Mayfield won't get him the ball even when he's open, now all of a sudden he's "trash". Last year it was Mayfield was so much better cause Beckham was gone. Now Curtis Mayfield looks like a better option for the Browns.
