WAY TO GO PHILADELPHIA!. IT WAS TOUGH BUT YOU DID THE RIGHT THING.TAMPA BAY DID THE SAME THING WITH THEIR OTHER PAIN IN THE ASS, KEYSHAWN JOHNSON, IN MID SEASON. I APPLAUD A TEAM THAT HAS BALLS. I AM NOT AN EAGLE FAN, BUT I GIVE CREDIT TO NOT GIVING INTO HIS CONTRACT DEMANDS, DIDN'T GET INTIMIDATED BY HIS BLOOD SUCKING AGENT DREW ROSENHAUS. OWENS WAS GIVEN EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO GET HIS ACT TOGETHER. IT WAS ASHAME THAT DONOVAN MCNABB HAD TO PUT UP WITH HIS ABUSE. MC NABB KEPT HIS MOUTH SHUT, AND HAS PLAYED THE GAME LIKE A REAL PRO, WHILE IN SERIOUS PAIN. NO, THE EAGLES ARE NOT FOOLS LIKE SOME PEOPLE THINK. THEY MADE IT TO THE SUPERBOWL LAST SEASON WITHOUT OWENS, HOW FAST PEOPLE FORGET, OR GET DISTRACTED. OWENS, AND KEYSHAWN JOHNSON, LISTEN UP, HERE'S THE TRUTH. YOU WILL NEVER BE IN THE CLASS OF THE GREAT WIDE RECEIVERS IN THE NFL. JERRY RICE, MICHAEL IRVING, AND OTHERS YOUR BOTH NOT!. GO AWAY!!!, PLAY IN THE CANADIAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE, YOUR ACTS ARE OLD HAT!.BYE, BYE,. P.S. DONT LET MCNABBS FOOT KICK YOU IN THE ASS ON THE WAY OUT!.

My understanding is that he will lose $205 thousand per game. Times the 4 game suspension. I'm sure the Eagles will cut him next year. He has a $7 million signing bonus due - OUCH! That's got to hurt. I'm sure he'll sign on with another team but for how much? A million or two?
Anyone know of any futures bets saying the Eagles will cut him next year?

Owens is in a vacuum in which he is the center of the universe and cannot think outside himself which is his downfall. Self-centered to a fault, Great ball player with a personality disorder which precludes his receiving treatment by the very nature of the disorder. So glad he did not come to the Ravens. Where he goes his cancer follows.
Good for the Eagles, about time they did something! This makes be even happyer the Ravens did not take him.

The star receiver apologized Friday in a statement and later on his weekly radio show, but the damage already was done.
The Eagles issued a statement that said Owens was suspended "for conduct detrimental to the team." The team added that it will have no further comment.
Owens' agent, Drew Rosenhaus, refused to comment.
The Eagles (4-3) will line up with unproven rookie Reggie Brown instead of Owens at one of the wide receiver spots for an important game at Washington (4-3) on Sunday night.
This is the second time Owens has been suspended during his controversial 10-year career. In 2000, he was suspended one game by San Francisco coach Steve Mariucci following his infamous touchdown celebrations on the Dallas Cowboys' famed star logo at the center of Texas Stadium.
Owens got in trouble this time after taking shots at the team and quarterback Donovan McNabb in an interview with ESPN.com on Thursday.
Owens was upset there was no in-stadium acknowledgment of his 100th career TD reception in a victory over San Diego on Oct. 23. An announcement was made in the press box.
"That right there just shows you the type of class and integrity that they claim not to be," said Owens, who became the sixth receiver in NFL history to reach the milestone. "They claim to be first class and the best organization. It's an embarrassment. It just shows a lack of class they have. My publicist talked to the head PR guy, and they made an excuse they didn't recognize that was coming up. But that was a blatant lie. Had it been somebody else, they probably would have popped fireworks around the stadium."
Owens also said the Eagles would be undefeated with Green Bay's Brett Favre at quarterback.
"A number of commentators will say he's a warrior, he's played with injuries," Owens said, referring to Favre. "I feel like him being knowledgeable about the quarterback position, I feel like we'd probably be in a better situation."
Owens said on his radio show he merely was agreeing with the opinion of Michael Irvin, the former Dallas wideout and current ESPN broadcaster.
"This is one I really regret," Owens said of the interview, adding that some clips were taken out of context. "I said earlier in the interview that we would have a better record if Donovan wasn't injured."
Owens previously said on his radio show that he'd prefer to play with Indianapolis' Peyton Manning over McNabb or any quarterback. Last year, Owens couldn't stop praising McNabb after joining the Eagles following eight seasons in San Francisco.
But their relationship soured after Owens took a verbal swipe at McNabb's performance in Philadelphia's loss to New England in the Super Bowl. McNabb responded harshly and the two feuded throughout the summer, not speaking to each other for a prolonged period.
McNabb, a five-time Pro Bowl quarterback who has led the Eagles to four consecutive NFC championship games, has played through several injuries this season, including a sports hernia that will require surgery. He has thrown for 2,034 yards, 15 TDs and seven interceptions while going through some tough stretches.
Owens has 47 catches for 763 yards and six TDs. He's been upset with the Eagles since management refused to redo his contract just one season into the seven-year, $48.97 million deal he signed when he came to Philadelphia in March 2004.

Mr. Dickhead
Last year I seen TO at the Sacremento/Houson game and thought he was a dick there. Then at the infamous Monday night game between SF and Seattle where he signed the pig skin.
BASICALLY he brought it on himself since he has been at Philly.(and SF)
I have played organized sports all my life and have had a few of them on my teams and when they are not there to play for what ever reason I can remember not caring if we win or loose without him. And when we won it just proved that we didn't need the DICKHEAD on our team.
Guys like TO, KEYSHAWN JOHNSON,and RANDY MOSS come around once in a while. Thank god for that. Sometimes I wonder just who they think they are?????
Now I am just happy that he is missing out on his weekly paycheck.
Maybe he should play for the arena league. There is lots of attention there at games.
