A few days ago, I fell into a funk and found myself simultaneously bored and lazy. It was unfortunate. But eventually, I transitioned from bored and lazy to just lazy and decided to waste some time with the internets.
While checking out the online store at TerrellOwens.com, something caught my eye — popcorn. "TO’s Exotic Popcorn Getcha Popcorn Ready" popcorn, to be exact. And yes, all of that is the name. One can get 3-1 pound bags of mix and match flavors that sound about as nauseating as all the coverage that whining tart has received all week — Blackberry Brandy, Fruit Fantasy, Banana, Salt & Vinegar… mmmm, right?
Sure.
I don’t mean to add to the T.O. overkill that’s out there but this stuff cracks me up. So if you’ve had enough Owens coverage, click away now.
Still around? Good. Let’s roll through some other absurdly priced, obnoxious items that could only be found at TO.com:
An autographed copy of "T.O." for an appropriately priced $81.00 [Buy the unautographed copy on Amazon for $16.50 (or less)]
The Fan Club package for $59.00, which gets you a hat, 4 plastic cups, and 5 "free" downloads of his craptastic rap single, "I’m Back." What 5 free downloads gets one fan is anyone’s guess, as typically people only download an item once. But I’m sure TO has a perfectly rationalization for this.
Autographed football marked down from $249 to $199. I can do the "Buy it now" on eBay and get a mounted, autographed Jerry Rice ball for $179. T.O., sir, you are no Jerry Rice.
The Philadelphia Eagles Terrell Owens player replica mini helmet – and it’s autographed too! Surprisingly, the price has been knocked down from $129 to that magic number of $81. Perfect for Philly fans looking for something to shoot bullets at during Sundays game.
Blue & Silver "Terrell Owens" wristbands. It seems T.O. missed the boat on why people have wristbands (you know, that whole charity thing). The $10 you spend on a wristband, however, will give 10 more reasons to be alive.

Who is actually buying the thigns on TO’s site? If I’m a parent, I don’t want my kids having that shit. I’m a Cowboys fan and I still don’t want any of that crap. As for the logo and the Star desecration, it just about figures that this piece of shit would profess love for this organization and use that pose (which I dont think he’s done again) for his logo. I never noticed that. Thanksf or pointing it out.
When you mentioned that stuff about his wristband I really thought that you’d got it wrong and the $$ was actually helping somebody out. But I looked and TO has a charity wristband AND a “my own pockets” wristband. I wonder how many people have been fooled into buying the blue one thinking it was for a good cause.
it’d be interesting to find out if all his stuff went on sale before or after the pills.
He is also going to write some books for kids per SI..wtf is that shit about? Thats like Jeffery Dahlmer doing a cooking show.
Cowboys fans won’t care about that. The only thing they care about is being relevant and if some guy that punks him in his own logo makes them that way, they’re fine with it. Idiots.
Watching him steam and pout from about the 2nd quarter on was allll worth it. He didn’t do much but toe the company line after the game… I wonder how much of a fine he was threatened with if he tried to share his own opinion.
