NFL: Off Season Action

Terrell Owens is arguably the biggest pud in sports (OK, so Iverson is competitive...).

I am disgusted that this crybaby got his way, and now declare myself a fan of Whoever Is Playing The Eagles.

I think TY "we all gotta eat" Law woud be a close second in that regard.

There should a reward for that distinction, BTW. A Sports "Raspberry" of sorts.

One of the biggest, but not THE biggest. In the NFL alone, there are a couple who are worse - David Boston and Keyshawn Johnson.

Iverson wins hands down. What a loser - no concept of the word "TEAM". So I just mute the local sports until I see a Phillies' logo.

I'll take Boston and Keyshawn (especially Keyshawn who was made a scapegoat because Gruden realized the Bucs were going to suck) over T.O. at this point.

I used to root for the Eagles.. no more.

With these recent developments in the land of the Eagles, I am very glad I made that macro

u must be on crack to take boston over TO. to is bad. but boston was so bad that the team that just signed him to a big fat franchise receiver contract w/ big fat bonus. traded him for a 6th round pick...in 2005.

Boston just needs the right coach and situation. Boston showed he can shine in a few games last year. I think most of the problem was with Drew Brees... who was horrid last year.

miami is demanding boston be 15 lbs lighter than his current weight.

if boston did have someone who could handle him he's obviously an amazing receiver w/ size and speed. that being sed. TO is an amazing receiver w/ a great work ethic and a highly competitive attitude RIGHT NOW. and doesn't need near as much "handling."

Jealousy is not very attractive.

Good thing. He still caught 70 balls and had 7 TD with his great bulk.

He's in luck. The WR coach in Miami is the same one in Arizona in 2001. You know when he caught 98 balls?

I wouldn't say that. This is a guy who yelled at his coach on the sideline. Didn't get along at all with his QB. And just threw this temper tantrum because he didn't get what he wanted. I think he requires just as much 'handling'. He's a timebomb ready to go off.

god damn shotgun. ok TO did all these things and still had good years. Boston needed handling, got benched, fined, and tried to have his contract bonuses removed. which btw the trade also removes like 5 millino of guarenteed money from the SD contract.

its not that TO doesn't whine. its that he plays anyway. more akin to keyshawn. it appears boston whines and breaks down soto speak. when u go from leading the league in receiving yards to not even cracking 1000.

To be fair, look at Jake Plummer in Arizona and in Denver. That O-Line was soooo horrid that year that Joe Montana couldn't have done anything with it.

Boston had a decent year last year. But once again, SD is a running team which has a below average QB, who just can't get it deep.

Here is a good article about T.O. and Philly and how will he deal with Andy Reid not putting up with that pom-pom waiving, sharpie signing BS.
