It took three years for Terrell Owens to finally get voted into the Football Hall of Fame and quite frankly, Owens should’ve been a first ballot HOF’er. The fact that he had to wait three years is blasphemy!
CONGRATS to the HOF CLASS OF 2018.
We’re GOLDEN! 🧥 https://t.co/cGcDqCgFER— Terrell Owens (@terrellowens) February 3, 2018
Many took to Twitter to congratulate Owens including one of his biggest critics, Fox Sports’ Jason Whitlock, who’s long been an advocate of Owens not getting into Canton, but on Saturday, he decided to congratulate him anyways:
Congrats, man. Yes, I wasn’t a supporter but I sincerely hope this brings you joy, peace and a new level of respect. You were a tremendous football player. Be a good teammate to your fellow HOFers. Congrats. https://t.co/HcfIGzggb9

Owens responded by politely telling Whitlock to ‘shove it’:
Kick Rocks.

Owens is second to Jerry Rice in all-time receiving yards and third in touchdown catches behind Rice and Randy Moss, who was also selected to the Hall of Fame on Saturday—becoming one of just six WRs to get in on their first try.
