Filed under: Browns, CowboysTerrell Owens clearly has an obsession with Usain Bolt.

Last week we told you about Owens’ claim that he could beat Bolt in a 100-meter dash — as long as he got a 20-yard head start. (We agree; Owens would probably beat Bolt, barely, if he got that big of an edge.) And today Owens gave the fans what appeared to be an homage to Bolt in the Dallas Cowboys’ season opener against the Cleveland Browns.

After catching a 35-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter, Owens lined up at the goal line like a sprinter at the start of a 100-meter dash. It was a funny way of reminding everyone of his challenge to Bolt, but the premeditated celebration resulted in a 15-yard penalty, and the Cowboys then had to kick off to the Browns from the 15-yard line.

My advice to Owens: Keep talking all you want about your vow to race against Bolt. But knock off the Bolt-themed celebrations, so your teammates don’t pay the price.
