Terrell Owens talked about Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo again Thursday, this time, to clear the air.
Just in case anyone thought he was serious Wednesday when he
proclaimed his quarterback's latest girlfriend "not a fan favorite,"
Owens explained he was merely having fun with a subject that's been
tossed about by others for days.
T.O. being T.O., however, the story took on a life of its own. He
was driving home Wednesday afternoon when friends told him about the
ruckus. He wound up on the phone with Romo, who'd already heard from
Simpson.
"I guess she was kind of upset about it," Owens said. "(I) just
told him I would do whatever I can to rectify the situation. That's
about it."
Owens said the call "wasn't necessarily an apology."
"I was just kind of explaining to him what kind of happened during
the course of the (interview) session," Owens said. "I kind of told him
what was said, and he kind of expressed what Jessica had told him. I
was like, 'Look, dude, it wasn't meant like that. Everybody was having
fun, and I was saying what I had to say. There it is, it's a big
story."'
Owens said he thought things were fine between him and Romo. The
quarterback's take on all this is unknown because he hasn't talked to
reporters since immediately after a 10-6 loss to Philadelphia on
Sunday. Questions then focused on his poor performance and injured
hand, not his girlfriend.
