TO to Release Children's Book 


With all the hoopla surrounding Terrell Owens and the Dallas Cowboys visiting the Philadelphia Eagles this week I thought it was only fitting for WBRS Sports Blog to provide some TO news from a different angle, in fact you could consider this a nurturing perspective. It was announced yesterday that TO will release his first children's book, Little T Learns To Share. The book is scheduled to be released sometime in mid-November. Here is a brief synopsis on the book...

It's about a young boy learning the value of sharing. Little T, the title character, refuses to share his football at first but later realizes he can't enjoy his new ball without friends. "I tried to play outside alone and throw it by myself, but football isn't football unless you play with someone else," Little T tells his mother in the book.

Apparently this is TO's first of several children's books, which will all be a part of T.O.'s Timeout Series. "The second book, Little T Learns What Not to Say is due in spring 2007, and the third one, Little T Learns To Say I'm Sorry comes out fall 2007. The other topics haven't been determined."

Courtney Parker, the co-author of the book and also a good friend of Owens, explains the inspiration for the series of children's books... "We're watching television and the commentator said, T.O.'s behavior is so childish," Parker said. "And then [Owens] says, 'That's not a bad idea for a book. It should be about discipline since the world thinks I have none."

WBRS Sports personality MC has predicted the titles of Books 4, 5, and 6 in TO's Timeout Series...

Book 4 - Little T Learns to Take the Recommended Dosage.

Book 5 - Little T Learns to Look Smart by Having a Dumb Friend Speak at His Press Conference

Book 6 (title tentative) - Little T Learns that D Batteries Bruise

Little T.O. needs to have litle Drew Rosenhaus as his agent. It's only fair.

Little T goes out to play and Little Drew tags along to make sure that Little T gets picked first

Little T will call you gay if he doesn't like you.

I'll just say it now...you people out there are morons if you buy this book. Better to spend the money on sugar and sodas for your kids. They'll be much healthier.

Once you are finished with the T.O. books, you can start reading "By My Brother's Side" by Tiki and Ronde Barber..."a sun-drenched childhood anecdote about perseverance."

Apparently the book ends with a tongue twister:

Troubled TO took a trove of toxic tranquilizers.

All the bloggers in all the world could come up with all the jokes they could think of, individually and workshopped, and there STILL wouldn't be enough jokes for this.
