T.O. to Simpson -- Just Jokin', Jess!

Jessica, TerrellUPDATE: Terrell Owens has a sense of humor, at least he thinks he does -- and now he's saying that he was only "being funny" when he spewed venom at Jessica Simpson for playing Delilah to his teammate Tony Romo's Samson.

The Dallas Morning News is reporting that T.O. has already apologized to Romo, and is trying to tell Jess sorry, too. "I tried to get [Romo] to call her so I can explain to her that she doesn't really know me and that I can be funny,

Jessica Simpson is a huge fan of Tony Romo and his Cowboys, but the love sure isn't reciprocal -- especially from bigmouthed wide receiver Terrell Owens.

T.O. wasn't happy that Jessica's first appearance at Texas Stadium coincided with Romo's worst showing of his career, and he voiced his displeasure, reports ESPN.com. "Right now, Jessica is not a fan favorite -- in this locker room or in Texas Stadium," he says.

It's nothing personal, actually -- T.O. just wants Tony to throw some TDs. "With everything that has happened, obviously with the way Tony played and the comparison between her and Carrie Underwood, I think a lot of people feel she has taken his focus away."

And, in true Owens fashion, he's got something up his jersey sleeve: "Oh, I got a message for her when we make the playoffs. Just stay tuned."

76. TO Grow up and be a man. Your paid to be professional atheletes, so start acting professional. It's a cop out to blame your teams poor performance on anyone else but yourselves. I can't stand J.Simpson But she wasn't the one playing. If your team can't handle there jobs and personal lives, well then there are plenty of people who would gladly step into your places who can.

77. You have got to be kidding me? Grow up! Are you all in Dallas on on the Dallas Cowboys 12? 13? I have NEVER heard such a childish statement in my life.

Professionals? i doubt it

78. That's just T.O being himself...an outspoken blunt jerk.

Jessica wasn't playing the game. It's not her fault. It's a game...you win some...and you lose some. And the blame shouldn't be placed solely on Romo. Perhaps both the offense and the defense should be blamed. I'm not an eagles fan, nor am I a cowboys fan...I actually loathe them, but let's get real.

Don't you find it odd that they lose a game they blame someone who wasn't on the field?

79. Jessica Simpson is simply gorgeous and a lovely girl.

Anyone talking trash about her probably weighs at least 300lbs and has mef teef.

80. Oh come on everyone, stop hating! Jessica Simpson is not the reason for Tony Romo's preformance. He just had a bad game.....it happens, it could of been his thumb, who knows, She was there on Thanksgiving Day's game, and he played good!! So stop blaming Jessica Simpson. Haters!!!

81. Don't really ever care for T.O. and his attitude but he is an awesome player. I agree 100% with his statements. The airhead should stay away. The team has been doing so well which we haven't seen in a long time. Keep your ugly mug at home where it belongs Simpson. And I don't like being able to agree with anything that T.O. ever says.

82. PROOF possitive that T.O. is a M.O.ron....what a crybaby!! He is SUPPOSE to be a professional and now when they lose again, he has yet another reason to blame someone else...What about the dropped balls HE had that game!!!! Doesnt mention that huh????

83. He's supposed to be a professional. If her just being there is a distraction he either needs to stay single or keep his head out of her butt.

84. OMG!!! you cant blame jessica because tony romo sucks!!! and why does it matter if she is there? she's a fan and has been a fan for a while!! so why can't she go watch a game just like any other fan? im a charger fan and if we lost we wouldn't blame it on kendra wilkinson because she's a celeb and a fan!!!, T.O is an idiot and a crybaby and has always been one!!! he just needs to get over the fact that he has a sucky quarterback!! he just needs to focus on his game and not on his love in the stands....if he can't do that then guess what? boo-hoo, cowboys fans!! you will have a bad season yr after yr...haha [[don't stop going to his games jess...its ur right dont listen to all those bitter texas hicks!!!]] =]

85. Okay if you all hear T.O.s conversation it sounds like he is joking. We are talking bout TO here he loves attention anywhere he goes. Although I am not a fan of Jessica & Romo together you can tell he is just kidding and has already asked Romo for appologizes for saying what he said to the media. oh and to all those talking crap about our record being LUCK there is no way you can win 12 games on pure luck we had a bad day on Sunday against the eagles and that is all!!!!!!!!!

86. When did this woman become a public punching bag and punchline. Leave her alone. If Romo were worth his contract, he would be able to execute plays in his sleep. Joke or not, T.O. needs to sit down and hush. He's still rehabbing his temper-tantrum image. His stats could stand some improvement as well.

87. T.O. is right. It was evident Romo had his mind on things other then football. Now is not the time to get screwed up in the head over some girl.

He needs to keep his mind on what the team needs to do. If they flop in Carolina, then it's all over and Romo will never live it down. He will be branded forever.

88. I'm a cowboys fan and the minute I saw her there I said uh oh. But I think it's very mean of everone to blame her for the game loss. He sprained his thumb and they had several players injured that day.

89. TO is right on this one.
It's nice of him to point the finger at her, but just how dumb can Romo be? This girl with a sinking ship of a career showed up in his life the same weekend he was signed for the 7 million a year.
The kid is in over his head, and he might take the team down with him. WAKE UP Romo!

90. T.O. needs to realize it's not Jessica's fault that Tony screwed so badly this past week. His head was not in the game like it should of been. Is he going to blame Tony's parents for his bad luck in the game as well? If I'm not mistaken, they were there as well. It's either that or T.O. is just upset that he can't get a goodlooking woman like Jessica Simpson.
