buffaloaggie Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Are you kidding? Come on Buffalo, just treat him like any other player on this team. I don't live in Buffalo, so I don't know who the last athlete was that got a key to the city. Is it just me, or is this overblown by the Mayor, giving T.O. a key to the city? To me, it's a joke. I think it should have stopped at a press conference. http://www.wgrz.com/sports/story.aspx?storyid=66878 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Tomorrow afternoon Mayor Byron Brown will present him with a key to the City of Buffalo. A 35 year old WR signed to a one year contract who has yet to play a down for his 4th NFL team, and he's getting a key to the city? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The whole city dude! The question is, can T.O. be trusted with it? Good thing there is nothing to do in Buffalo. He might break into Dave & Buster's and play games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it should have stopped at a press conference. http://www.wgrz.com/sports/story.aspx?storyid=66878 At the time of this posting... a crowd has gathered at Buffalo-Niagara International Airport awaiting the arrival of Terrell Owens. As it turns out, it's been quite a wait indeed. Owens was origially due in at 6:15, then 9:15, and after a day of delays and missed flights, we're told by a VH1 representative that he'll be touching down just after 11:30pm. A crowd has gathered at the airport... fans with faces painted... just to catch a glimpse of Owens as he arrives. Welcome to the circus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spun Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 What does the key open? The Official Buffalo Bills VIP Lounge at the Erie County Holding Center. If it gets much worse, ECHS may have it's own Bills Wall of Fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladiebla Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Euhrm you give someone the key of the city for actually achieving something, not when he's there for an one year visit and hasn't done anything for your city yet... So euhrm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, you can't be defensive and sensitive about every negative thing said about our fair city, and then at the same time mock the mayor for using a publicity stunt to bring in some positive spin. For some reason, VH1 thinks this stupid T.O reality show will work for it's young demographic audience. Why? I have no idea. But since they think it will work, someone in the mayor's office did some quick thinking of their own, and will now have this "presentation" at City Hall filmed for all of VH1 nation to watch. I think it's marketing genius, and I applaud them for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
