Court Filing Claims Terrell Owens Sent 'Taunting Text Messages' To Child's Mother

Found June 06, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Terrell Owens
TEAMS: Cincinnati Bengals
A lawyer for the mother of one of Terrell Owens' children alleged in court papers filed Wednesday that Owens sent her "several taunting text messages ... regarding his failure to pay child support." Randall M. Kessler, an Atlanta-based attorney for Melanie Paige Smith, filed an amendment to petition for contempt Wednesday in Superior Court of Fulton County (Ga.), Family Division. In the amendment, Kessler offers evidence of Owens' "willful and egregious contemptuous actions, over and above the nonpayment of child support" and cites two text messages Owens sent Smith. One of the texts cited reads: "The other mothers got a dose of reality once my attorneys and judge explained by (sic) financial situation. ... so you can only imagine wht's gonna happen when we go 2 court." According to the document, in May 2007 Owens was ordered to pay Smith $5,000 a month in child support. He has "failed and refused to pay any child support" for December 2011 through this month. Owens allegedly owes $30,000 plus interest.

Terrell Owens' new agent doesn't change anything

Via Bloguin Best  |  June 05, 2012
When news came out that Terrell Owens had left agent Drew Rosenhaus in favor of Jordan Woy, an agent based out of Dallas, I had a couple of thoughts. First, Drew Rosenhaus is probably thrilled that he doesn't have to represent Terrell Owens anymore. Rosenhaus can't exactly make a lot of money when his client isn't getting any job offers. Frankly, if I was Rosenhaus, I...
