With the NFL season half over, you've got to wonder, what kind of world do we live in when Cincinnati is 7-2 and in the lead in its division?
This is a crazy world we live in - one where a man who has a seven-year, $49 million contract complains that he is not making enough money and then criticizes the people who pay him that money.
Well, Terrell Owens is the highest-paid benchwarmer in the league now.

The only catches T.O. will snag are the ones Donovan McNabb has to throw away toward the bench.
McNabb made the mistake of saying the Eagles can win without T.O.
Good call, buddy.
Here is the crazy stat of the first half: Before last Sunday's game, when the San Diego Chargers faced the New York Jets, LaDainian Tomlinson had more touchdown passes, with three, than three Jets quarterbacks had all season.
In case you didn't know it, Tomlinson is a running back.
What is up with the New England Patriots? This does not look like a team that went 14-2 last season on their way to their third Super Bowl title in the last four years.
The Pats are plagued with injuries, but the team just brought back Tedy Bruschi, who had an immediate impact. This season the Pats have a win-one-game, lose-one-game mentality. It's a bold strategy. Let's see if it pays off for them.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, because I just watched Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts beat the Pats in Foxborough, Mass., where Manning was previously 0-7.
The craziest thing of this season has to be Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers.
I don't think I want to live in a world where Favre throws for five interceptions in one game. He has 14 total for the year.
Favre is usually solid, but this year I wouldn't pick him to be my backup's backup on my fantasy team.
There is nothing crazy about my beloved Raiders still losing, but I have faith.
It's been a crazy first half of football. What's next, the Texans make the playoffs? Don't hold your breath.
