Despite never holding the distinction of Super Bowl champion, Terrell Owens has enjoyed a long and successful NFL career. Sadly, this career is seemingly coming to an end. Following a semi-successful run with the Philadelphia Eagles, Owens began being swapped around the league. His unsuccessful stint with the Dallas Cowboys left a stigma on the aging star.

Last season, Owens teamed up with Chad Ochocinco in hopes of creating the Miami Heat of the NFL. While both teams had early struggles and both came up short of the title, it was done in different ways. The duo of Owens and Ochocinco failed to produce a winning record or a playoff berth. As a result, the Cincinnati Bengals reportedly have no interest in re-signing Terrell Owens.

Outside of football, Terrell Owens has become the face of VH1 with his series, "The T.O. Show." The show has shown a different side of the NFL baller. More of his childhood, growing up in Alabama, has begun to show. Perhaps, due to his luck with the television show, Terrell Owens decided to try his hand at being a casino. Along with twenty-five other NFL players, Owens invested in a casion based out of Alabama. The casino has since been shut down and is currently under investigation, according to reports.

If enough evidence is found, Terrell Owens and the other investors could be fined by the NFL, suspended by the NFL, or forced to abandon their investment, which was over $20 million.

Terrell Owens prepares Third Season of "The T.O. Show"

When he rose to become one of the NFL's top wide receivers, fans became turned off by Terrell Owens. Owens came off as very cocky with his statements and his actions on the field. All of this came to a tipping point when the Philadelphia Eagles were forced to decide between Owens or superstar quarterback, Donovan McNabb.

McNabb ended up remaining in Philadelphia, while Owens was dealt to the Dallas Cowboys. The media expected the Cowboys to return to prominence behind Owens. Quickly, he formed a nice duo with quarterback Tony Romo. The only problem was the team failed to win in the regular season, barely making the playoffs.

Following three unsuccessful playoff showings, Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, informed Terrell Owens his services were no longer needed. An aging free agent, most teams passed on Owens, but the Buffalo Bills gave him a chance, signing him to a one-year deal. This deal is what served as the launch for his "The T.O. Show."

Through "The T.O. Show," fans had the opportunity to see the other side of Terrell Owens. Despite his persona, Terrell Owens was actually a very humble man. The show gave people the chance to see Owens interact with his family and friends. It was then when it became obvious why Terrell Owens is the way he is, given his father issues. In the second season, Terrell Owens took on his committment issues head first and proposed to Kari, despite an obvious attraction to Kita Williams.

With last season ending on a cliffhanger, VH1 renewed "The T.O. Show" for a third season. The new season of "The T.O. Show" will begin airing this summer.

Terrell Owens, himself, began a new career on VH1. His series, "The T.O. Show," has made him into a new kind of star. The show gave people an inside look to Terrell Owens. For years, the media had portrayed him as a jerk. While he does have a big ego, he also has a big heart.

Among the many women he was with on the show, Terrell Owens was with Jessica White. The two went out on a couple of dates, but the chemistry was not there between the two. White later appeared during the second season of "The T.O. Show" and Kita Williams suggested she give Terrell another shot, but she said they were over for good.

Jessica White has amassed a rather large following over the past four years. Oxygen recently recruited her to be a part of their network. She will be starring in a reality show for the network and filming has already began for her new series. There is a small chance that Terrell Owens might appear in an episode of the show, but it is a long shot given their relationship.

Terrell Owens returns to VH1

Last year, VH1 rolled out its 2009 schedule and Terrell Owens was added to the list of celebrity stars featured on the network. Owens rose to become one of the best players in the NFL. Along with his on-field style, Owens also developed a persona off of the field. This persona, named T.O., has given Owens a bad name all around. Most people assumed Terrell Owens was an all-around bad guy.

Owens proved these people wrong last summer, when "The T.O. Show" premiered for the first time. Outside of himself, Terrell Owens was shown to be a kind and caring friend. The stories about him and multiple women were surely true, but he actually had feelings for most of the women he was with. Most people saw chemistry between Owens and Kari Klinkenborg.

The first season ended on a cliffhanger between Terrell and Kari and the fans were waiting to see what happened next. Filming began right after the end of the 2009 NFL season. The second season will have a heavy focus on his move to Buffalo with the Bills and the reaction after they missed the playoffs. Owens was brought in to lead the team to the playoffs. But, all he could do was land them with a bad record. Along the way, he proved he was still among the best players in the league.

Now, with Terrell Owens currently involved in a soap opera regarding the next team he will play for, the cameras are rolling for eleven episodes. The second season should premiere later on this summer and he will have a new love interest this season.
