Here's a potential first to add to the "Not In My Backyard" homeowner's list of complaints: Terrell Owens. The Bills' high-profile receiver's search for a place to live in the Buffalo area has hit a snag after Owens said he was denied a chance to rent a home in Orchard Park because of the potential "drama" he might bring to the neighborhood. Owens first announced what happened late Tuesday night by posting a message on his Twitter.com site. The message read that he's "tripping about residents" who won't rent a home to him because they "(don't) want any drama (in) their neighborhood!! LOL!!! Wow!!."

Yeah TO, can you actually believe they're worried about drama....from YOU? It's not like you have ever worked out in your driveway in front of 50 or so of your best media buddies!?

Ummm......shouldn't he have enough to buy a house? Given that there is training camp and a season, buy an inexpensive house and live quietly.....oh wait, that might make sense, so TO has no chance of doing it.

They heard he would do a Lance Allworth "down and out" if he had room..........

Drama? What do they think could possibly happen. It's not like he is going to be surrounded by reports doing push ups and sit ups in his front yard during a contract dispute. Oh wait a minute that sounds vaguely familiar.

He wants to rent because he'll only be there for 8 games, get suspended, and then have Snyder and the Skins sign him.

And isn't Snyder "Jerry Jones Light"?

Why am I not surprised at T.O. "twittering"...

We don't even know if it's an impersonation, or the real She.O.

I caught a flash back of running from the police, and scared the hell out of one of my co-workers with the look in my eyes...

So I guess you can say, it was "powerful!"
