Terrell Owens Proposes – Will Being Engaged to Kari Make Him a Better Dad? (Video)
Has NFL bad boy Terrell Owens been tamed? Based on the season 2 finale of the T.O. Show, we’re left wondering whether his girlfriend Kari accepted his proposal.
Even though the cliffhanger was the proposal, much of the rest of the episode was dedicated to Terrell’s role as a father to his four children – Terique, Atlin, Kylee, and Dasha. He has never even met his three-year-old son Atlin! Still fresh from welcoming her own son Jackson, Mo pushes Terrell to step up and be a real dad to his kids.
Terrell has been uncharacteristically quiet on the engagement leaving us to guess whether he and Kari are still together following the end of the season.
Guess we’ll have to wait until next year to find out what happened next!
Will the actually get married or have they already broken up? Will he step up for his kids?

Jenn commented on Sep 06 10 at 1:29 amDon’t marry Kari!! She is snotty and has a nasty attitude!!!
Lynn commented on Sep 06 10 at 1:36 amI agree with Jen. Kari has a nasty attitude and I think she just want the status of being with a pro player. She’s arrogant and snotty
Nikki commented on Sep 06 10 at 1:38 amWhy keep running after somoeone when there are many others who would love to to be with you and will not keep throwing the past in your face. She knows you are going to keep running after her, thats why she always have that smurk on her face cause she knows you will be back and why use the same ring to propose to her that you used on your ex. So Stupid
Lathon commented on Sep 06 10 at 1:43 amYou two have to many problems already, if you marry her it will end in divorce, and in court.I think you should concentrate on ALL of your kids first then on a relationship, don’t be a dead beat dad, be a strong black man that takes care of his kids, they come first, even before you!!!!!!!!!!!!
Teri Shanley commented on Sep 06 10 at 1:44 amYou are so much better than she gives you credit for, You both messed up and I don’t see you throwing her issues in her face. It’s not fair! If you are willing to marry her and she is willing to marry you than she needs to let go of the past and never talk of it again, it means a new start for you both. I wish you the best because you deserve the best!
Amber commented on Sep 06 10 at 3:00 amOMG!!!! Is that really the same ring?????!!!!
Texas commented on Sep 06 10 at 3:38 amOk so before the T.O.Show I was not a big fan of his. After viewing this season I actually like T.O. which brings me to answer why in the world does he feel like this Kari is right for him. He even expresses displeasure with the lame hug she gave him. She has a nasty attitude and just seems like a nasty person. I really hope that she does the right thing and say NO. Also is this the ring that he was going to give to the other girl 5 years ago? Hmmmm
Chad Ochocinco commented on Sep 06 10 at 4:37 amDon’t marry her T.O. because I’m going to tap that ass the second you dump her.
B.Terrell commented on Sep 06 10 at 6:02 amTerrell she’s not the one dude. Stress stress, and more stress.
BUCK commented on Sep 06 10 at 9:49 ami think he should try to ge back with Felisha and get married to her
Lisa commented on Sep 06 10 at 11:23 amDon’t marry her!!! She will try to take all of your money once you divorce!! Believe me you will get divorce.
lisa commented on Sep 06 10 at 4:36 pmOmg ochocinco crazy. Lol. Does that mean he aint wit rubi no more
lisa commented on Sep 06 10 at 4:43 pmNevermind read that wrong. My bad. I hope rubi n chad together n happy
Nicky commented on Sep 06 10 at 7:58 pmThis is ridiculous…Terrelll your bad Karma will keep following you until you do RIGHT with your kids. How can you sleep at night!!!
Leslie Wells commented on Sep 06 10 at 11:55 pmAtheletes are known to be not the most committed people. I feel sorry for Kari because it is obvious that she really loves T.O. She should run away as fast as she can!
judbfine commented on Sep 07 10 at 3:18 amKari knows how to play Terrell-the mind games; and she would be crazy to say no, this is what she has been waiting for. The sad thing is they have both cheated-but say they love each other; when you love someone-you don’t find comfort in another persons arms/bed. You talk to your mate and try to work it out, not lie, cheat, and play games. All this sleeping around and cheating, I hope they are practicing safe sex. Kari just sees the money-she’ll put up with the mess and have her a little something on the side too. Men and women got to have values; and not lose those values to the money and fame. I wish them the best of luck, I hope he has a prenup; she’ll definitely trip if he throws that up.
Hannah commented on Sep 07 10 at 6:46 pmYou can’t help who you fall in love with. I think there is more to Kari then we see on the show. So just let the man decide for himself. No one knows T.O. and Kari better then T.O. and Kari, they don’t need everyone’s opinion.
Mechell commented on Sep 08 10 at 3:25 pmMarry Kita! I think you guys are perfect for each other!
Jessie commented on Sep 08 10 at 11:37 pmI think that (99%) of athletes cannot be faithful and obviously he is part of that 99% Kari you are to pretty to put up with any man like that if you have kids he will just leave you all by yourself. Do not put your self in the same situation as his other baby mommas its not very smart
Elaine commented on Sep 09 10 at 2:54 amDo not marry T O! Glad he’s in therapy but he’s still too immature. If he can’t be a father to his 4 children, he will not be a good enough husband. No respect for a man who is seeking to have more of a relationship with a girlfriend than his own children. I liked T O up until his argument with Mo. He’s cried crocodile tears because of his absent father, yet he repeats the same behavior. Man up T O! Only thing that will be different from what you already have is a contract (painful trap)! Kari is not a snob, she has high standards & confidence. That’s why T O is so attracted to her! All the money in the world is not worth the emotional roller coaster that Kari will endure. Grow-up/Man-up T O. Be a Father to your children, you self-serving ego-maniac. With all the pain you’re in from your absent father (even with all the $ you have-which means it cant buy happiness), how could you not be consistently in your children’s life? You need Dr. Phil to set you straight! Forget “take your time” from your current therapitst. Handle you personal life now when it comes to your children, they aint got time to wait for your ass to grow up. No one in their right mind could work professionally with you knowing the poor relationships you have with your children. I dont always agree with Mo, but I’m seriously feeling her on this one. I no longer like you, and I did! This message is from a Black woman, the truth is the truth. Wrong is wrong!
saint commented on Sep 10 10 at 1:06 pmHe makes the comment “I know I’m lost without her”. Poor thing,those two alley cats you keep on your shoulder have you so confused. You are lost before you get with any with the little kari girl, that see straight through the confusion. She only make you feel worse than you already do, by point out your faults.
deshawn knows commented on Sep 10 10 at 11:53 pmTerell do not marry this girl she does not like you. Look back at the footage and has she every shown any compassion for you all she does is treat you like a child. She is not worth it to me she continues to tell you that she will leave. Please leave Keri because he can do better. Keri tell the truth you do not like or love that boy so stop playing games trying to boost your image and career.
BG commented on Sep 11 10 at 8:25 pmKari comes across as a very naggy girl. she never gives him a chance. never. she’s always complaining about something. I think TO needs to fully focus on his kids. Its unacceptable that he hasn’t seen his son Atlin, that’s just wrong. I don’t understand how a man who’s dad wasn’t there for him would repeat the cycle.
Grow up, TO.
Stacy commented on Sep 11 10 at 8:54 pmDO NOT MARRY HER PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU NEED TO FOCUS ON YOU AND YOUR LIFE BEFORE YOU BRING SOMEONE ELSE IN IT. GET TO KNOW YOURSELF AS WELL AS YOUR CHILDREN AND MAKE SURE WHO EVER YOU MARRY IS READY FOR YOU AND YOUR BAGGAGE(KIDS). THINK FIRST
angie commented on Sep 12 10 at 2:00 pmI like Kari….TO does not need a million ppl telling him to get his life together….and you all dont know him or Kari based on his show.
C commented on Sep 12 10 at 3:52 pmYea, I think Kari has plotted since day one. And that she knows how to play the head games better than T.O. Everybody knows if you act disinterested then they will come. Happens all the time. And she started out in the beginning of the relationship trying to pressure him into marriage. Warning sign number ONE! And I agree w/Hannah…marry KITA! There is obviously something genuine there not to mention sexual tension. She obviously cares a lot for Terrell as a friend and more. She gets jealous. SIGN number ONE! She knows how to handle Terrell and even though he doesn’t want to acknowledge her like that, he likes that she does know how to truly handle him w/o all the head games and w/o have an alterior motive. They have true chemistry! Don’t be a fool and try to marry someone b/c of something superficial. Sit back and look at the bigger pic. If not Kita, then someone who possesses those same qualities.
Heather commented on Sep 12 10 at 10:53 pmLove, Love, Love Keri, beautiful,classy, Woman who I feel would go to the end of the earth for T.O. However has enough self respect to put her foot down and tell him shape up or ship out. Go Keri and TO love you guys together when you have love like they have for one another you have to keep at it work it out anyone can just quit
Wendy commented on Sep 13 10 at 1:34 pmGive me a break!!!! I get that TO feels he is ready for a serious relationship but is he proposing just because he hates to give up on things. I am sure there is allot that we did not see on the show but he and Kari clearing have too many issues to be getting married. I wish him all the best because I truly believe he is a wonderful guy but I do not see him and Kari lasting. She is young and she doesnt appear to really trust him.
MJT commented on Sep 14 10 at 5:34 pmYeah, T.O. You had us on the edge of our seats at the end of the finale. We all want to know what Kari said. But, honestly I don’t think you should be with her. Too much has happened, too many things said and she doesn’t trust you. I think you should focus on the your kids and career and the relationship will come follow…but not with Kari.
Delonte commented on Sep 16 10 at 9:00 amDONT MARRY HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sue commented on Sep 19 10 at 2:32 pmI did not care for T.O. when he played for the Cowboys. I thought he was very arrogant and a jerk.. Then his TV show came on and I became hooked. He really seems to be a very caring individual. I think he is awesome now… I love Kita and Moe too.. He has met his match with Kita.. I think you and Cari have too many issues to straighten out before you go ahead and get married. Concentrate on your kids and career first.. Your will know when the right one comes along. Remember, you need to be friends first.. Cari is not right for you.. sorry…

drobins commented on Sep 22 10 at 1:09 pmYour children should be your first priority in your life. then you. Keri is too immature for TO’s life style, they think they are on a rollercoaster ride now but if TO don’t take more interest in his sons life him and Keri will be on a ride of their life.
Joe commented on Oct 10 10 at 4:21 pmF**K TO. I dont see why any female would want to get with man who doesnt even care to have a relationship with his children. People are so blinded by his wealth and social status that they are not looking at the fact that he is a dead beat dad.
Mo commented on Oct 10 10 at 9:32 pmI think Terrell should marry Kari she is always there for him, and putting up with his bull, and in the end of the day the both have a lot of love for each other and they say opposites attract.Well I do agree about his kids being his first priority, I also believe he has the right to be happy and when he is with Kari they look so happy with each other
Stephlova commented on Oct 28 10 at 12:15 amListen, the only reason that Kari is holding on TO is because of his money! If Kari is so all of that and classy and TO is no good for her,then she can easily find another Pro athlete to bag!That marriage will not last more than a year if she said yes!
