Owens, who had a sign in front of his locker saying he didn't want to speak to reporters this week, placed a large tub of popcorn in front of it Friday.
"You guys want some?" he said to a group of reporters surrounding his locker.
On his weekly radio show, Owens said he didn't have his customary news conference because he wanted to avoid questions about New England's Randy Moss.
"I didn't feel like it was really necessary," Owens said. "I don't really play against Randy Moss, and I'm trying to take the individually out of it. I just didn't feel the need for a lot of 81 and me and Randy Moss questions."

He would have handled it well if he had just said this last Wednesday. But his goal wasn't to handle it well or to avoid Randy Moss questions, his goal was media attention. And since he got talked about a lot, he accomplished his goal. He is such a good player, an outstanding WR, that if he'd just shut up his legacy would be that of one of the top WRs in NFL history, not an attention whore.
