Who's Worse -- T.o. Or Moss?

[topscribe]

Interesting article from the Pro Football Talk Rumor Mill:

"The admission by Mr. Moss that he has been for time to time acquainted with Mary Jane makes us wonder whether, despite Terrell Owens' recent turdish behavior, Randy is still the less desirable of the duo.

"Despite his flaws, Owens has never had an issue with alcohol or drugs. He's got no rap sheet. He is, quite simply, an ***hole. A major ***hole, to be sure. But if being an ***hole disqualified a guy from playing pro football, the powers-that-be would have a helluva time getting 53-times-32 guys into uniform.

"Moss, on the other hand, has had a history of brushes with the law, dating back to high school. He spent 30 days in jail after testing positive for marijuana while on probation. He was arrested for knocking over a traffic control officer with his Lexus in September 2002. (A marijuana cigarette was found in his car at the time, but he claimed that it wasn't his.)

"And now this -- an admission of periodic marijuana use.

"Sure, Moss is motivated in light of his unceremonious exit from Minnesota. And we think he'll have a big year. But T.O. was similarly well behaved in 2004 in his first year out of San Fran. Come 2006, Moss likely will get moody when the ball isn't thrown his way enough, or when the losses pile up, or when someone tries to tell him that he can't do something he wants to do.

"For now, we'll call it a tie. We'd want neither guy on our team for more than a season.

"If that long."

I wouldnt want neither guy. While talent can outweigh some baggage, i think both of these guys carry enough baggage that it wouldnt be worth the risk. While moss takes plays off, at least he keeps his mouth shut more than TO. Although i wouldnt want either, if i had to choose, i think id pick randy moss.

[bcbronc]

id pick moss by about a thousand miles.

to the best of my knowledge moss has never bad mouthed his quarterbacks, at least publicly (TO has with both garcia and mcnabb), never told his offensive coordinator "dont talk to me unless i talk to you first" (TO has), and although the vikings decided to move moss due to the distractions moss has never FORCED a trade (TO has, twice, sanfran and baltimore. possibly working on a 3rd).

say what you want about their personalities, both have issues obvioulsy, but moss only cares about winning. you never hear him complaining about "all the td's he left on the field because of his quarterback". even after TO put in a gutsy superbowl performance it was more important that he "showed everyone he could do it" than the results of the game.

alot is made of moss' mooning of the GB crowd. about how 'disrespectful' it was. i couldnt disagree more. i loved it. when you consider the whole picture i thought, if anything, it was an homage to the crowd. compare that to what TO did in dallas THREE TIMES! that was 'disrespectful' and as classless as you can get. i will say the sharpie incident was the best TD celebration in the history of TD celebrations though.

the only thing moss has done on the field that i find offensive is leaving while the game was still on. when you look at the context, 2 seconds left, vikings attempting an on side kick, it changes it a bit. it is still unforgivable but at least it was done out of frustration, not premeditated like the current TO circus.

as for moss smoking a little weed, who cares? as long as he doesnt get a suspension for it what difference does it make? millions of people around the world indulge a little.

i would love moss on my team. i wouldnt take TO period.

you think the Eagles wouldve made it to the Super Bowl without TO all season? they were in jeopardy of becoming the Bills of NFC title games.

its too bad that they have so much talent that they can act they way they do and teams will still line up to throw money at them.

I'd take Moss over TO. Randy is better talent-wise and his attitude is somewhat better.

[ricethegoat]

I think both of these jokers don't deserve the talent god or whatever higher power gave them, and they both deserve to be poor and homeless... I have never in my life had to witness the joke that either of them are... I just wish there were more classy football players, but I feel that day has long gone...

[broncosfan247]

they both deserve to be poor and homeless.

T.O. maybe, just because he's currently crying about his paycheck. But I know Moss does give alot of his money and time to charity work. Plus the media never showed him on the sidelines signing autographs to the handicap kids while he was a Viking.

I think TO is ten times worse. Not because I like the Raiders...its just he lashes out against his own QB in the media. More than twice

fair enough, but MOSS is still a fricking whiner, and an arrogant,selfish football player... he will NEVER live up to Rice's legendary status... EVER

i think they would have. they did make it through the post season without him. westbrook is alot more important to their offense than TO is (they didnt have him the previous year for the playoffs). they lost the only playoff game TO played in.

until

seeing as how I am a viking/bronco fan the trade killed me. But until Moss complains about making an ungodly amount of money with the excuse of having to feed the kids...I would take Moss over T.O. anyday.

Plus 247 had a very good point. I would always see Moss giving a kid the touchdown ball and hearing about his charity work.

hey Bc very nice with the Floyd quote!

Moss won me over when he gave thekid in a wheelchair the football after scoring a touchdown, that kid will never forget that and I think Randy does more good than harm. TO is a disease and will hurt the eagles in the long run I am sure of it. I would pick Randy in a heartbeat, and I thought the mooning was kind of creative versus all of the annoying stuff TO does after he scores..
