10 Questions for Terrell Owens

What should the NFL do about Michael Vick?
Hmm. That's a very touchy subject. He's done the right thing by accepting the plea. He realizes that he has to be accountable for what he has done. We all make mistakes--and I'm sure he will grow from it. Everyone deserves a second chance. We're all human. That's what the world has really lost sight of.
Why are you so self-absorbed?
I don't feel that way. You can only base your opinion off the media's portrayal of me if you don't know me personally. But I definitely feel I have the skills to be able to put me on the plateau I'm on. I'm really confident in who I am, and you know, sometimes you have to be a little selfish to be great in what you do.
Were you offended when your ex-publicist explained that your accidental painkiller overdose last year wasn't a suicide attempt by referring to your contract, saying you had "25 million reasons" to live?
At that time, there was so much going on that it didn't really have an impact on me until I got back home and started seeing the media making fun of it. I'm pretty sure it was something she wished she wouldn't have said. Look, we all make mistakes, just like I have. You just have to recognize the mistake and move on.
Why are wide receivers so high maintenance?
I'm not sure. You know, we're kind of looked upon as the go-to guys on the team. We're a very, very intricate part of the offense; we're expected to put points on the board. I don't think I'm any different than any of the other great receivers that have demanded the ball or seemed a little high maintenance themselves.
Do you regret how your relationship with quarterback Donovan McNabb turned sour in Philadelphia?
You know what? I do regret some of the things that happened. Donovan is a great guy. Honestly, I do miss being around him. I learned some things from Donovan. It was a bad situation, and if there were a way I could go back and handle some things differently, I definitely would.
If you could choose any quarterback in the NFL to be the No. 1 in Dallas, who would it be and why?
Man, that's a tricky question. I don't want to cause trouble ... O.K., I would say Peyton Manning, then Donovan McNabb. Peyton has history on his side, with his dad being a quarterback, and you can't say enough about how studious he is in the film room.
Terrell, any thoughts on when the 'Boys 'will win their next Super Bowl?
Eli, get your popcorn ready. Get your popcorn ready with a little extra butter. We have a very talented team. I know that just by talent alone, you don't win games. But we definitely have a group of guys that are ready to bring that sixth Super Bowl trophy to Dallas this year.
If T.O. stood for something other than Terrell Owens, what would it stand for?
I don't know ... ah ... Terrific One. Terrific One. I like that.
Is Barack Obama black enough for your vote?
[Laughs.] You know what? It doesn't matter what color the person is. May the best person win. Whoever does the best job, then that's who I'm for. But Obama is making a lot of the right moves.
What's your favorite TV show and why?
I'm going to mention two shows. The first is America's Next Top Model. I just like to see how people interact--women can be catty once they're together. And my other favorite is the channel HGTV. I like to do my own decorating. No, I don't have a garden.

特雷尔•欧文斯十问
美国国家橄榄球联盟应该对麦克尔•威克做些什么？
嗯。那是个敏感的话题。他接受了答辩，这样做很正确。他意识到了不得不为自已的所作所为负责。我们都会犯错——我确信他会通过这件事成长起来。每个人都应该得到第二次机会。我们都是一样的人。人们往往忽略了这一点。
您为什么这样自恋？
我不这么认为。如果你不能直接了解我，你只能把观点建立在媒体对我的描述上。但是我确实觉得，我有能占领“高地”的技术。我很有自信，你明白吗，有时你不得不对你所做的事情有一点儿自负。
当您的前任公关谈及合同，解释说您去年意外吞服过量止痛药并没有自杀的企图，您有2500万种理由活下去时，您感到不愉快吗？
当时，有许多事情要做，所以它并没有对我产生影响，直到回家后看到媒体在取笑这件事时。无疑，她希望没有说过这件事。看，我们都会犯错，就象我一样。你能做的只是必须承认错误，然后继续前行。
为什么一个外接手这样难伺候？
我不清楚。你知道，在一个队里，外接手某种程度上被看作是成事儿的人。我们是进攻中最最难以捉摸的一个角色；我们希望能在记分牌上加分。我认为我与其他卓越的接球手没有什么不同，他们对球有要求或者看起来有一点难伺候。
您对与费城老鹰队的四分卫多诺万•麦克纳比的关系恶化程度感到遗憾吗？
你知道吗？我确实为一些已经发生的事感到后悔。多诺万是一个优秀的人。坦诚地说，我确实怀念与他在一起的日子。我从多诺万身上学到了一些东西。情况确实很糟，如果有办法回到过去，用不同的方式处理事情，我一定会去做的。
如果您能在美国国家橄榄球联盟中选择某个四分卫作为达拉斯牛仔队的一号人物，那会是谁，为什么？
嘿，那是一个不好回答的问题。我不想惹麻烦......好吧，我想是佩顿•曼宁，然后是多诺万•麦克纳比。佩顿有历史渊源，他父亲是一个四分卫。你能想像他在摄影棚里有多么勤奋吗？
特雷尔，对于何时“小伙子们”将会赢得下一个超级杯有什么想法？
老天！准备好你们的爆米花吧。准备好你们的爆米花，多搁点黄油。我们有一个很有能力的团队。我知道只有通过能力，才能赢得比赛。但是我们确信有一群家伙已经准备好了将第六届超级杯奖品拿回达拉斯牛仔队。
如果T.O.代表了除特雷尔•欧文斯以外的意思，那它代表什么？
我不知道......嗯......很棒的一个。对，很棒的一个。我喜欢那个意思。
巴拉克•欧巴马够黑吧，会得到您的支持吗？
（笑）你知道吗？问题不在于人的肤色。最好的人才能赢。谁干得好，我就支持谁。但是欧巴马做得不错。
您最喜欢的电视节目是什么，为什么？
我要提到两个节目。第一个是“全美超级模特儿新秀大赛”。我只是喜欢看人们的反应——女人在一起的时候都很狡猾。另一个我喜欢的节目是“美丽家园”。我爱自己做室内的装饰。不，我没有花园。
