    He did it himself also learning from Rice and applying those lessons to his own training habbits, TO is a success story.


    I think they are both very successful though, so to me they are kind of alike, when I first read this thread I was like you but I thought about it and parallels can be drawn between them.

    T.O got drafted i think in the 4th round, He was a bill walsh pick while walsh was still advising our team. He came from a small school also, tennesee chattanooga (sic). That class had isaac bruce, keyshawn johnson, and a whole host of wideouts that went before him.

    T.O is DEFINTATELY a success beyond what people thought hed be. Like i said, im a niner fan, i for the most part, cant stand his ass, he tore this team apart, but i also know facts, and statistically, hes in the top 10, what more can you ask for?

      Yea I thought he came in the same year as Harrison, which is why I could not out and out call him the best WR of that draft (1 and 1a though).

      I have played Fantasy Football since the mid 90's and I remember laughing when somebody drafted TO the year he blew up.

      I do not really like TO but the man over achieved through his own hard work he deserves his props for that.

          To me he always sounds like that, if he has to talk like this to get his confidence up so be it different fighters get amped up different ways not everyone is the same.

All the talent in the world and he doesnt have a championship ring for it.

              That is exactly what Mayweather jr is to boxing. An undoubtedly gifted fighter that could have been the greatest of all time but never dared to be great. Wasted a year retired while his greatest challenges unaccomplished. Now much like Terrell Owens....he is desperately trying to convince his fans and his organization that he is even worth what he is getting paid.
              Great analogy.....Pretty true indeed.

                I will suck Floyds **** no matter what and make excuses for everything he does.


                Thats the translated version.


                Who cares about the 147 pound division?


                Why call fighters up to that division if nobody cares about it?

                I guess its just easier to fight the smaller champions than fight the actual champions in that division.

                You're not a boxing fan, you're a Floyd stan.

                    JMM is one of the best in the sport, I do not really consider him a threat to beat Floyd but how do you know what the future holds in Floyd's come back. I find the sport much more interesting with Mayweather in the mix, there is no one else like him.
                    co-sign. the sport has been a bit "boring" since may left(rockon)

                      theres a big problem with this. Floyd isnt MT, hes FLoyd. and if Meldrick was intelligent enough. he wouldnt have sat there trading with Chavez getting the brakes beat off him.

                      nows hes ****ed up

                      so this anology is POINTLESS and doesnt make sense
