It is not the desire of the Allen Wranglers’ organization to disappoint fans by having our most notable player miss a scheduled appearance.”Owens signed a deal before the season began to have part ownership of the Allen Wranglers, but the title has been removed with his release.He appeared in eight games for the Wranglers and caught 35 passes for 420 yards and 10 touchdowns on the season.Owens looked he didn't take the Allen Wranglers organization seriously and paid the price for it.It seems like it's time for Owens to hang it up. Taking the horrible dip to the IFL mad many people question him and now there are more people are against him.Please Terrell Owens, for the sake of your hall of fame career, please retire and keep your legacy intact.
