T.O. deal gets mayor's stamp of approval

[The Spaz]

I spent a few days last week in Buffalo for a story about diva receiver Terrell Owens and how he will be embraced by a passionate community that's proudly blue-collar. The first stop in my tour of the area was to see Mayor Byron Brown in Buffalo's city hall. I sat down with the mayor, Deputy Mayor Steven M. Casey and communications director Peter Cutler in offices that looked like sports shrines as much as political headquarters.

As mayor, if Terrell Owens gets us to the playoffs, I will proclaim a day in his honor. I will make it Terrell Owens Day in the City of Buffalo. And that's just for starters. Let's not even start talking about the ticker-tape parade.

Ok that made me laugh.
