Terrell Owens Can Get His Children's Books Published But I Can't

Now I know that name recognition is a key to writing children's books for those who are already famous. Any moron can bust out a few sentences and get a talented illustrator to tighten up the project. However, this book just amazes me.

I found this gem after receiving a rejection e-mail from Objective Entertainment in terms of looking for literary representation (this is just the newest in a plethora of rejections.) The first for me with this rejection, however, was that it was the first time that any literary agency has offered to put me in touch with some self-publishing companies. The word "Scam" screamed out to me, so I went on their page again and sifted through their projects. I happened to find this wonderful piece of work in their children's section.

How in the hell did Terrell Owens get to publish a children's book? Furthermore, read the title. Do I need to say any more? For those who know who Terrell Owens is, the title is an oxymoron in and of itself. Maybe T.O. should have read the book before he made comments about Tony Romo and Jason Witten.
