why is he a big headed asshole? he works his ass off to prepare to play. he signs autographs, he does the interviews, and he puts up numbers. what cause he dress' fly? or cause he thinks highly of himself? wants the money? i dont see it, but then again i also support barry bonds and think he is the best ever offensively. so im sure i can be on the short end of the stick. but i love t.o.'s game and wish more people worked as hard as he does and put up numbers like he does.
But the TO last year on dallas (the whole ODing thing, talkin shit about Bill Parcells, throwin teammates under a bus (Drew Bledsoe)), on Philly (talkin shit about McNabb, other players, coaching, contract disputes (demanding more money after he signed a contract), being suspended and then deactivated because of his actions) and on the 49ners (talkin shit about Jeff Garcia and Steve Mariucci, demanding trades, etc.) and his whole "me me me" attitude during interviews are reasons why people think he's a big headed asshole. Which he was. Maybe hes a "changed man" now, but up until this season, thats the kind of person he was, sayin shit like "I didn't lose the game" shit like that.
Everyone knows hes a great player, no one is questioning that. But TO was the definition of big headed asshole in the NFL. Shit, those funny "Leon" commercials were inspired by TO. "Theres no 'I' in team." Leon: Yeah, but there ain't no 'We' either
