    As of right now his PR said he got a reaction to the pain killers, police said the bottle was emptied at the scene. I hope its not true TO seems like a strong person, only the weak would go that route.

    I couldn't believe this when I saw it. It will be an absolute sad state when Drew Rosenhaus comes out and starts to blame the media for all of this.

    TO is living in a fake world with a fake persona just like Deion Sanders was with "Primetime". And it's not a coincedence that Deion was suicidal and it's not a shock if this is a true story about Terrell Owens. I think mentally he pretty far from a strong person.

    Meh, I think its just a media ploy for TO to get back in the news. Considering his season has been halted due to injuries, and he isnt the talk of the NFL - this certainly would do it.

    T.O. likes himself too much to commit suicide. Normally when a doc prescribes pain medication they only give you like 10-15 pills. Basically enough for a couple of days. I would have to talk to my neighbor and see how much Vicodin or other pain meds it would take to do the deed.

    Yeah he does like himself quite a bit, but I wonder. In any event, sources like ESPN are sometimes too quick to jump all over a story. If you look at breaking news events, a week goes by and all kinds of "facts" that were presented at the outset change. If it truly is a stunt on his part, they should find a way to throw him out of the league. Conduct detrimental to the team, to the league, whatever.

    unless u take vicodin +++ alcohol, that will take you unconcious. then again, it depends on the tolerability of the person. since he's physically fit, i think it would do him good if he took high dose of medication. he might prescribed with 5/500 strength of vicodin (tylenol 500 mg + 5 mg Hydrocodone) its a regular strength, higher dose can do it easily.

    people have their own "meltdown" probably TO is at it now, sad to see players who are talented and go waisted on this, in fact, i feel sorry for people committing suicide.

    Just in case he did try suicide, I think I'll send him a copy of Titannica's song "Try Again (Adam's Song)".
