Owens Silent about Mariucci

There is one topic that the usually out-spoken Terrell Owens won't talk about: Steve Mariucci. The relationship between Owens and Mariucci has been on the rocks for the six seasons they were together in San Francisco. Now Owens plays for Philadelphia and Mariucci coaches for Detriot. Both teams are 2-0 and they will meet on Sunday. The conflict between the two hit a high point in a game at Dallas in 2000. Owens performed a questionable celebration after a touchdown which resulted in a fine from the NFL and Mariucci suspended him for one game. However, Mariucci insists that his memorys of T.O. are good ones. Mariucci had respect for how Owens practiced and played; "...he gives you his all," said Mariucci. When Mariucci was fired from San Francisco him and Owens had a friendly conversation and left each other in good terms.
