The world is finally making some sense

As I chilled back to the music of Oscar Peterson, I heard some other welcome news on Wednesday. No, I didn't hear my Giants had traded Eli Manning for the No.1 overall pick in next month's draft or Mets' general manager Omar Minaya was hit by a bus with Paris Hilton sitting in his lap.
Instead I heard reports Terrell Owens had been cut by the Dallas Cowboys. Now the first thing that came to my mind was "No way," and (expletive deleted). I was still happy, nonetheless.
After all, this was the same Terrell Owens who had worn out his welcome in two previous cities, thrown countless coaches and teammates under the bus, attempted suicide (whether he admits it or not) and committed countless acts of unsportsmanlike conduct (like who hasn't done that in today's game).
Skip Bayless called T.O. "Team Oblitorator." I am not a fan of him, either, but he's right. The team's he's played for were good, but they couldn't win a championship with him, and stunk once he left.
T.O. is the new face of the NFL. Selfish, me-first players who care less about their teams as long as blood-suckers like Drew Rosenhaus get them exorbitant contracts. Most of them seem to play wide receiver. Why is that?
Mommas don't let you babies grow up to be wideouts! Don't let 'em run 4.4s and act like (expletive deleted). Make 'em be cornerbacks and quarterbacks and such!
The Cowboys will hurt for awhile without him. They're going to take a $9.5 million salary-cap hit, but they'll be better off without him. They'll be better off without the drama and the lack of chemistry. Jerry Jones might miss the reality-show garbage, but he can tune in to "The Hills" on MTV.
This is the NFL! If he really wants to win another Super Bowl, this was a move that had to be made.
Now he and the rest of his team has to pick up the pieces and forget the last three years ever existed. Kinda reminds me of my ex-fiance', but I digress. Jones should apologize to his fans and shareholders for signing Owens, Adam Jones, Tank Johnson and every other felon and malcontent he inked in a misguided attempt to buy a world title.
So if you love the NFL, rejoice! Shout it from the rooftops! T.O. is finally gone!
Unless, that is, your team signs him. Sucks to be you Oakland, Detroit, Kansas City, Cleveland and Buffalo fans!
