Terrell Owens: The Untold Story

Terrell Owens. Great Play-maker on the field as well as one of the game's biggest showboats. There is no denying his extraordinary talent and his ability to electrify a crowd. But underneath the  showboat and play-maker, there is an emotional and difficult past that he has had to deal with his entire career.

As a kid, Terrell Owens lived in a small town in Alabama called Alexander City. He lived in a small house with his mother and grandmother where they had little money.

Terrell Owens had never met his father until he was nine years old. When he finally got to meet him, Terrell had found out that he had another family and the craziest part was that his father lived right across the street from his mother's and grandmother's house. That might sound like something you hear in a soap opera but it's true.

Young Terrell moved through Middle School as a kid that seemed like nothing more than skin and bones. He did have an interest in football and basketball and started playing but was never much good.

He moved into High School and made varsity as a junior and senior. He was a mediocre bench warmer at best through the Junior Season. There was a lot of pressure to just go around partying and drinking while he was in High School but instead he spent  his Senior Year working his a** off to make starting varsity and even then he was still nothing great. He continued to work to become a better football player and eventually it payed off.

He walked on to the Football team at The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

From then on he became a very good football player and because of all that hard work in 1996 he was Drafted by The San Francisco 49ers where he began his illustrious NFL career.

That's how you got to know the T.O. of today.
