DALLAS -- Terrell Owens was taken to the emergency room Tuesday night, and doctors treating the Dallas Cowboys receiver were trying to induce vomiting, according to a television report.

 

Though the reason for the hospitalization was not disclosed in the original report, ESPN's Ed Werder is reporting that, according to a source close to Owens, the receiver suffered an adverse reaction to painkillers taken for treatment of his fractured hand.

 

 

Owens was brought by a fire rescue crew to Baylor Medical Center, Dallas-Fort Worth television station KTVT reported, citing sources the television station did not identify. A reporter for the station later said she saw Owens being wheeled down the hall.

Fox News just reported that it was an attempted suicide. Said Owens told the doctors he "tried to harm himself."

Is there any doubt?

I don't think that even TO would go that far,

I wonder, what did he do, that would cause him to want to attempt suicide?
