T.O. Taken To The Hospital (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=Am7QjvM1T1YJVJw.xNFa36NDubYF?slug=ap-cowboys-owenshospitalized&prov=ap&type=lgns)


Terrell Owens was taken to the emergency room for an undisclosed reason Tuesday night, and doctors treating the Dallas Cowboys receiver were trying to induce vomiting, according to a television report.

I read this story on espn.com earlier.

I can't think of any reason why you would induce vomiting in the ED. In fact, induction of vomiting is pretty well contraindicated in most all toxic ingestions

There is definitely more, or perhaps much less, to this story than we know.

thinking the same thing. charcoal lavage? NG action?

it's a hospital. if we need it out of your stomach, we don't need to 'induce vomiting' to get it.

Dont medics use vomitting to releave pressure or something? Like when you have a really bad migraine and stuff?

I heard it was an allergic reaction to some medicine he took for his broken finger.

No.

Induction of vomiting is an intervention that used to be encouraged in the home after a questionable ingestion by a child. There really is no place for it in the modern medical environment.

You can decompress a stomach with a tube down the nose into the stomach generally speaking, but this usually is done only after positive pressure ventilation or with a bowel obstruction (clearly not an issue here).

He may have been vomiting, or he may be sick from his narcotic pain meds from his fractured finger. This may simply be a mild, expected, and recognized side effect of medications.

To purely speculate here...it could be a case of either intentional or accidental drug overdose, which would require, at times, placement of a tube into the stomach and medication with activated charcoal and or washing out of the stomach with water (which recent studies have shown is not really useful or safe).

With the information we have so far, on the whole I would expect this is much to do about nothing, as they say.

SelmaBamaFan
9/27/2006, 01:25 AM
Yeah, I figure if its an OD or something ingested they'd just sock a tube down his throat and hit the on switch.

Police report: Terrell Owens attempted suicide

08:26 AM CDT on Wednesday, September 27, 2006

WFAA-TV Staff

File / AP
Terrell Owens broke a finger in the Sept. 17 game against the Redskins.

According to a Dallas police report obtained by News 8, Dallas Cowboys star receiver Terrell Owens attempted suicide Tuesday night.

The report says Owens was depressed and reportedly took prescription pain pills. A woman companion states that she observed him putting two pills in his mouth.

According to the police narrative, the woman said the prescription of 40 pills was filled on September 18 and—until Tuesday—Owens had taken only five pills.

The police report said Owens was asked if he had taken the rest of the prescription; Owens said, "Yes."

According to the report, police also asked if he was trying to harm himself. Owens answered, "Yes."

Owens was treated at Baylor University Medical Center.

Everyone around here, and me included, really hopes he gets some help and playing football is not even an issue at this point.

Look, man...clinical depression is a horrible thing, a walking waking eternal nightmare. It is a serious mental illness. I've seen first-hand the devastating effects this has on everyone even remotely connected to the person suffering from it. It's horrible.

A little more compasson and a little less snarky judgement would serve you well. The fact that people are enduring worse circumstances than T.O. is besides the point. That fact actually plays into the self-loathing of the person suffering from the disease, makes him hate himself even more.

I'm personally praying for T.O. tonight, and I don't care about his football career. I want him to find peace.

A disease? I suppose alcoholism is a disease as well. :rolleyes:

Look dude... My Dad committed suicide, one of my step-dads, and two of my best friends. NONE of them suffered from anything except the unwillingness to face their problems like men. They all felt sorry for themselves, and mostly for situations that they had put themselves in. Not one of them stopped to think about how their selfish action would affect everybody else around them for the rest of their lives.

My grandmother is still devestated to this day by my Dads suicide, and it's been 13 years since that happened. By now he would have been out of prison and he would have had two amazing grandchildren, but he chose to hurt everybody that loved him and leave us here asking the questions every suicide family member asks: Why? What could we have done different? However I know the answers. He was extremely selfish and only cared about his own circumstances and didn't give a rip about his mother, son, or brother.

All the other suicides I've been directly connected with all share one common theme, as do ALL suicides; selfishness.

Like I said, there are extreme circumstances that are the rare exception, but for the vast majority of suicides (and ALL related to "chemical depression") the ultimate reason is selfishness. I'm not saying people can't be sad and depressed, but that is never an acceptable reason for suicide. NEVER.

I'm not saying I know why he did it. Millions of people do it without having the high profile for publicity sake. Frankly, I've never understood the fake suicide attempt. It seems to me as a "feel sorry for me" ploy, but I don't know.

All I know is that if he is back for the Philly game, he's gonna wish he had finished the job. Those people are going to be RUTHLESS. That's why I think retirement might be a possibility. It's hard for somebody with his high profile to come back from something like this. I hope he does, but I'm not holding my breath.

I don't want people to think I'm insensitive about this, but my feelings on suicide are based on much personal experience. I get frustrated that people try to condone suicide by using the depression angle.

You're right. TO hasn't banked any good will. As a Cowboy fan, I don't think TO has done that much this season to believe that the season is tanked. Personally, I think he adds a whole of talent, but takes away a whole lot of chemistry. So that has nothing to do with it.

Its more that this guy has everything in the world... money, talent, fame... and still is so F*#$ed up in the head that he would do this. Regardless of how you feel about "TO the player" this is a sad sad situation for "Terrell Owens the person."

Are you sure about that? Maybe they thought they were sparing you the pain and enduring problems of their existence. Suicide is mistake, and a selfish act, no doubt about it. But depression IS a mental disorder and as such is indeed a physical illness. Everything you just said feeds into the pain and self-loathing of the person suffering from it. They know they're weak, they know they're hurting others. They also want this mental anguish to end, and eventually convince themselves everyone who loves them will be better off without them. They convince themselves they are committing an act of love, by sparing everyone the problems associated with their continued existence.

All the other suicides I've been directly connected with all share one common theme, as do ALL suicides; selfishness.

In some cases, the choice to drag a family through a wringer could be called selfish, the suicidal person thinks he is sparing those he loves that pain, and therefore believes he is doing the best thing for those he or she loves.

I'm not saying people can't be sad and depressed, but that is never an acceptable reason for suicide.

Agreed. But I pray for T.O. and hope he comes to understand what you do. I don't hate him because he's suffering. That's not Christian, that's not American, and it damn sure ain't Texan.

Personally, I think people who are truly homosexual were born that way. As a Christian, I don't believe in hate and judgement, and I especially don't believe that God makes mistakes. Homosexuals are not mistakes, they are part of God's plan which mankind has yet to comprehend. As a Christian, they are fellow brothers and I hope they pray for me as I pray for them. Words like "pole-smoker" betray your own hate, and I hope one day you come to realize such words don't make you macho, manly, or powerful. They make you stupid, ignorant, and hateful.

Words like "pole-smoker" betray your own hate, and I hope one day you come to realize such words don't make you macho, manly, or powerful. They make you stupid, ignorant, and hateful.

or it makes me one sarcastic muh****ah. Being Christian I'll let you judge.

Yeah dude.... I'm the reason my Dad killed himself when I was a teenager, my step-dad did when I was 7, and 2 of my buddies did. My dad was going to go back to prison and he obviously did not want to do that, my step-dad had just got out and was messed up in the head, one of my buddies had a girl break up with him so he used suicide for revenge, and the other guy was a severe drug addict. I'm failing to see how I caused any of those, but I can definitely see how those have affected my outlook on suicide (don't ya think?).

TO does not fall into their categories b/c he did NOT committ suicide, nor did he intend to. He took the pills while a woman was there watching him. If he really wanted to do it, he would have waited till he was by himself and really done it. I do hope he pulls through this and gets better. My arguments actually had nothing to do with TO, but suicide itself. Why don't you go re-read the thread...

It might turn out that this wasn't a suicide attempt after all. Reports are coming out now saying it isn't... but my opinions about the act of suicide are still the same.

I can agree with this.

i'm not bagging on TO the person, I'm perturbed that this guy's plea for help/publicity stunt is gaining national attention. As Dean said, people kill themselves every day. He created this circus in which he occupies the center ring.

If he was truly so deeply, clinically depressed that he wanted to end it all, he would have found a UT football player, borrowed their 9mm and ate a bullet.

I would bemoan that event as a tragedy, because a human took his own life.

I doubt his ingestion ever reached toxic levels. If so, he would have been admitted for several doses of a really nasty medicine which helps protect the liver in these situations. He was discharged this morning. Perhaps the charcoal they undoubtedly gave him prevented absorption. Who knows?

I agree, but your interpretation of "non-judgement" is skewed I think. I can call a sin a sin. I just can't judge the man and say whether he's going to a hotter place when he dies. Homosexuality is wrong, according to God. I can say someone who practices that is going against God's will. I just can't say how God will treat him, because that's between he and God.

GROWING UP

Terrell Eldorado Owens was born December 7, 1973, in Alexander City, Alabama. Terrell was the first son to his mother, Marilyn Heard. Only 17 at the time, she was the product of a dysfunctional family herself. Most of Marilyn's childhood was spent in fear and silence. Marilyn's mother, Alice, was cruel to her children, raising them in a confined environment with little love or support. Marilyn wasn't allowed to play with other children, and had to come home directly after school. If she didn't, she would pay the price in welts and bruises.

A man named L.C. Russell lived across the street with his wife and kids. Russell was 14 years older than Marilyn, but that didn't matter to either. She craved love and human contact, and he became the father of Terrell. Despite the awkward situation, Russell stayed in the neighborhood with his family.

Marilyn tried to keep her pregnancy a secret from her mother and stepfather, but could only do so for only so long. One night Marilyn's younger sister ran away to live with an aunt. She remained at home with Terrell, who was just a baby.

After Terrell, Marilyn had a girl named Latasha. She was married to the infant's father for a brief time. Then in the early 80's came two more babies—Sharmaine and Victor—fathered by another man.

Terrell often stayed with his grandmother Alice. She was as hard on him as she was on Marilyn. Alice gave him a bike but he could only ride it in the yard. Terrell was permitted no spare time with his friends and couldn't watch TV. He was also whipped regularly. For all the abuse, however, Terrell loved Alice, viewing her as a second mother.

When Terrell was young, Alice's marriage fell apart and she began drinking heavily. The youngster often had to take care of her until she sobered up. One time Alice was so intoxicated, she put her purse in the oven and burned up all her money. Ironically, Alice seemed to lighten up as her alcohol problem worsened. She even bought Terrell a go-cart, which they would drive on the highway.

When Terrell turned 12, he befriended a girl across the street. Her father noticed and confronted him, warning Terrell that the girl was actually his half-sister. Thus the youngster learned who his father was.

To escape his tortured home life, Terrell became immersed in sports. Basketball, baseball and swimming were his favorites. He also loved football, idolizing San Francisco star Jerry Rice. He played despite stark opposition from Alice. Marilyn, by contrast, supported her son completely, knowing sports made him happy.

Marilyn bounced from job to job, and often found herself back in Alice’s house with Terrell. Her other children hated it there, however, so she eventually moved with them into a beat-up two-bedroom home. Terrell stayed with Alice because there simply wasn’t room for him in the cramped dwelling.

Terrell’s athletic career began to blossom when he entered Benjamin Russell High School in the fall of 1988. During his career, he lettered four times in football and track. Plus he accumulated three letters in basketball and one in baseball. Terrell actually didn't start for the football team until his senior year. He even thought about quitting the sport, but his coaches talked him out of it. They say great talent in him, even if he didn’t yet.

Tall, lanky and exceedingly fast, Terrell had the skills to play Division I football. But recruiters were slow to scout him. In fact, many got their first look at him only because they were watching teammates who were also excellent prospects. Few schools pursued Terrell as aggressively as the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. The coaches there had no problem with Terrell becoming a multi-sport star. For the teenager, the opportunity to compete in more than one sport at the college level was a major selling point.

Look dude, you cannot change what the Bible says. Think about it; if Paul were merely addressing something that was a product of his time, he wouldn't have spoken negative about homosexuality.

Wow.... So you think the NT is just the four Gospels??? I've never seen a Christian say they don't care what

Even if you do take the four Gospels and only listen to the words of Christ, you're still missing the point. Christ CONSISTENTLY condemned sinners. He was sent to pay the penalty for sin and He is also the judge of sin.

To say that we as Christians are not supposed to discern sin is ridiculous. Christ commanded us how to deal with brothers in sin.
Matthew 18:15 "If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.
16 But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that 'every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.'
17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.

Expulsion from the Church is a pretty severe thing to do, but Christ commanded us to do so.

Look at Christs condemnation of the pharisees and see how light he was on sin. Look at how many more times he spoke of hell and judgment than he did of heaven and reward. All of this He spoke so that people would turn from their sin and turn to him.

If we don't confront sinners with the reality of sin, they have nothing to repent of, therefore there is no need for a savior.

Homosexuality IS a sin, and to say otherwise is to do what you have done; completely disgregard the clear teachings of the Bible.

Wow.... So you think the NT is just the four Gospels??? I've never seen a Christian say they don't care what

Even if you do take the four Gospels and only listen to the words of Christ, you're still missing the point. Christ CONSISTENTLY condemned sinners. He was sent to pay the penalty for sin and He is also the judge of sin.

To say that we as Christians are not supposed to discern sin is ridiculous. Christ commanded us how to deal with brothers in sin.
Matthew 18:15 "If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.
16 But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that 'every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.'
17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.

Expulsion from the Church is a pretty severe thing to do, but Christ commanded us to do so.

Look at Christs condemnation of the pharisees and see how light he was on sin. Look at how many more times he spoke of hell and judgment than he did of heaven and reward. All of this He spoke so that people would turn from their sin and turn to him.

If we don't confront sinners with the reality of sin, they have nothing to repent of, therefore there is no need for a savior.

Homosexuality IS a sin, and to say otherwise is to do what you have done; completely disgregard the clear teachings of the Bible.

Christ was without sin, hence he had the standing with which to render judgement. What human has such standing? Where did Christ condemn homosexuals, or state it was okay to persecute them? These are people, they are God's children. Mind your own house before you start condenming others, or using the words of Christ to justify your hate.

Look Slappy, even when Christ interceded on behalf of the woman caught in adultery who was about to be stoned to death for her sin, his parting words to her were..."Go, and sin no more." That last bit is the part you libs always leave off when attempting to impute and imply Christ's acceptance of sinful lifestyles. Sheesh.

I voted for Bush. Republcian Texan and all that.

Christ wasn't defending prostitution. He was chastising others for their hate and judgement. There's a lot of that in this thread, especially towards T.O.

You go forth and sin no more, and root that hate and judgement out of your heart.

When did Christ condemn rapists?? I suppose since He was silent on the issue, we can assume that rape is okay. Beastiality must be acceptable too...:rolleyes:

What you're not getting is what He COMMANDED US TO DO. Obviously He was without sin, but He didn't leave us here to just wink at every sin out there. He left a shining example and explicit commands, yet you seem to ignore that. Apparently the Bible is only good in the parts that you think are good. You even ignore many parts of the 4 Gospels which you claim to believe. Like I said, unbelievable.

Guys - Please move this to the SO. It doesn't need to be here on the football board since it's turned into a religious debate. I apologize for it going this way.

Moved from the football board.

And just to recap:

Most of us think TO is a POS. Some of us even wish he'd have done the job right. A couple don't care. One or two think we're all the anti-Christ because we're not all "give TO your love, not your disgust." But you can be your own judge. Me? **** him, feed him fish heads.

this brings up an important question.

Bugs Bunny is clearly acting like a gay hair dresser when he is styling that big red hairballs hair before using dynomite as curlers and blowing him up. Question, would there be outrage at Bugs Bunny if this sort of anti-pc cartoon was made today?

While driving to school last night, I was listening to one of the Dallas local sports stations and the host was re-playing a interview from the Terrell Owens show (a radio segment show done by a florida espn guy whom interviews Owens every week)

The host plays a clip for Owens where Hall of Fame member Mean Joe Green was totally ripping on the selfishness of Owens. Owens said that he didn't care what Mean Joe was saying, but this made me think maybe after a few days the thoughts of Mean Joe's words couldn't get out of Terrell's mind.

No joke! This all started with your pole smoker comment. Nice move... ;)

It now looks like the publicist knee jerked. I'm assuming this publicist will now be looking for a replacement client. Now everybody can get back to openly hating TO like they did before and stop feigning pity... cept Norm and Dean. They stuck to their guns, even when they thought he was trying to off himself. Brazen!

I'm a Cowboys fan (refrain from the neg spek), but I was none too thrilled with his acquisition. I just hope he scores a lot of TD's, gains a lot of yards, and keeps his trap shut.

I agree with Dean about TO.

I still have no idea how Christians decide which parts of the Bible are "for real" and which are not. 1 Corinthians is in the NT, right? Weird.
