T.O., Rodney Harrison and trash talking…. T.O. delivers a 1st round KO

unlike Jeff Garcia, I like the box....notice where my eyes are...

Now, here at Too Old, don’t want to knock anyone and their hustle.  it’s all about getting paid.

But, when you run your mouth, you can expect some people are not going to stand quiet and let you dog them out.

While I can’t stand the medium, the message is right on point.  ESPN.com documents the brief battle.

T.O. fires back at Harrison via Twitter

Monday, September 28, 2009 | Print Entry

Rodney Harrison called Terrell Owens a “clown” on NBC. And T.O. wrote this on Twitter on Sunday night, in a series of Tweets:

too bad there is nothing left in the tank

I could less about Rodney Harrison! Anybody tht using steroids, yes STEROIDS rodney, is a cheater & cheated the game!

this is all natural...just hard work, and good living....and science

Is tht Y u used steroids b/c u were worried about ur stats or ws it b/c u were losing it? Lol! U’re a loser & a cheater? Got any steroid …

Hey rodney! Send me sum steroids 2 the Bills facility next week!

not only is it dumb, but it's gay too....and not in the happy way. (Gay in the sense that if you like women now, you are going to grow boobs....and start to feel "urges" towards men. If you are a woman, you are going to grow a mustache and kicks to groin will become an effective weapon against you...

Harrison was suspended in 2007 for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy but maintains he never took steroids.

I will get on that right away!

The first thing that I want to point out is how Twitter and other social networking sites are turning us into a nation of illiterate fools.  Learn to spell or have some spellchecker function.  I know that you are only granted less than 200 words to make your point, but child please. (Thanks Ochocinco)

Even with that timeout for a public service announcement, you have to be able to see that T.O. crushed Harrison out.

Second, watch what you say. There is no reason for Harrison to talk reckless.  It seems like a ploy to increase ratings and that actually might work for NBC.

Third, T.O is well versed in calling people out.  Just think back to Jeff Garcia.

In an interview with Playboy magazine that hits newsstands Friday, Owens was asked if he thinks Garcia is gay. Owens responded: “Like my boy tells me: ‘If it looks like a rat and smells like a rat, by golly, it is a rat.’ “

Garcia, who had a contentious relationship with the wide receiver in San Francisco, responded to Owens’ comment after practice Wednesday without mentioning the wide receiver by name.

“It is really a waste of my time to sit here and to have to answer to such ridiculous, untrue comments that are made out there in the world today,” Garcia said.

He noted that it has been reported that he has a girlfriend and has had girlfriends in the past.

“So many people know my situation here. It has never been a secret,” Garcia said.

That is a guy who protested waaayyy ttttooooo much.  All you had to say is “T.O. is crazy.”  There.  It’s over.  But, you had to bring up the fact that you have and had in the past, girlfriends.  Now, that makes people think you are just living a secret life.  Your voice and appearance in a metrosexual society can blend in, but you fight it too hard.  If it’s not you, keep it movin…It’s very similar to line by the rapper Drake

Look I stands out… so don’t think this ain’t some shit that I done planned out
And life is beautiful as ever when it pans out
And girls are beautiful until they want a hand out
But, ask apple how I get it tho
I’ll be on the phone with a bitch that you will never know
So you can son me never… I don’t get bitter… I just get better
And a verse is just a verse for me
I keep it generic and these niggas take it personally
If I was in a room and someone yelled… hey bitches
I would never turn around… cause I just don’t fit the description
But that’s just me though…

If that is the case, and you don’t fit the description, then don’t bother responding to such foolish statements.

Friends don’t do this to other friends… Raiders lose 23-22

So, we here at Too Old are in a state of shock after watching a game that the Raiders had in hand for most of the contest, but still found a way to lose. I am dismayed at watching a team that had a big win last week give all the hard work back with this loss. I blame Rob Ryan and Lane Kiffin for this loss. We are thinking that Kiffin’s time here in Oakland is coming to an end.

Rob Ryan gets some blame, because his defense schemes in the 2^nd half played too conservative and soft. In particular, DeAngelo Hall played off his man by at least 8 yards and Trent Edwards went all Alonzo Harris on the defense. “You know I’m surgical with this bitch!” He ate us up in the last two minutes and moved them into field goal range.

Kiffin gets the blame both for the play call on the last Raiders drive (He threw on third down, when he should have run to make the Bills use their last time out) and he didn’t use either of the two last time outs for the raiders, which could have saved at least 45 seconds for the Raiders offense to get into the Sea Bass into range to kick our game winning field goal. (Plus, he had a great game today and was 3/3 with a good tackle to stop a kickoff being run back)

After the game, we were sitting here in a state of disbelief, and someone (who will remain nameless, because I know raider fans who COULD stomp them out) texts one of the members here during the game and says that 1) it is going to come down to a field goal, and 2) after the winning kick texted a jeering message about the Raiders.

That was bad form and felt like this dude in the red. Now, let’s just refresh some information that seems like common sense, but too many people seem to violate.

1. During the game, don’t text anyone with ANY information about the score. I was at St Vincent, rooting for the Mustangs and I decide to leave to go and watch the UCLA/BYU game. The game was a blowout, but I didn’t know it at the time. One of the teachers there, Dave Schick greets me and I tell him that I am going home to watch the game that I Tivoed. He decides to tell me that it is getting out of hand. Why tell me that? I JUST TOLD YOU that I AM GOING HOME TO WATCH THE GAME!!!
2. IF you know that we root for a particular team, UNLESS WE ARE PLAYING YOUR TEAM, keep quiet about the outcome. Making fun can get you hurt. I am just warning you. Don’t sleep, or at least be a light sleeper. I have a female friend that violates this rule a lot, since she is a Boston fan. She loves to talk about how great they are, and compares the A’s to them.

Raiders lose, and we are just going to drink to ease the pain…
