T.O. being

T.O. in snub

to Hall

of Fame

By TIM DAHLBERG
Terrell Owens should have
had a better excuse for
blowing off his induction
into the Pro Football Hall of
Fame. You know, like may-
be he was going bowling.
That, at least, might have
been understood in the
tiny universe of T.O., the
one the former wide re-
ceiver lives in and no one
else seems to penetrate.
Owens was so into bowl-
ing after his football career
was over that he tried to
go pro, only to be undone
by slippery lane conditions.

cessful in football, where
his numbers were so good

have been inducted in
Canton in his first year of Woods opens with 66 at Firestone
eligibility. It wasn’t until his
third year that Owens was
voted in, part of a class
that includes, among oth-
ers, Jerry Kramer, Ray Lewis Tiger Woods follows his approach shot on the ninth hole during the first round of the Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament at Fire-
and fellow wide receiver stone Country Club, Thursday, Aug. 2, 2018 in Akron, Ohio.
