[BigDFan5]

Eagles | Team must make decision on Owens by Tuesday
Mon, 13 Mar 2006 18:09:56 -0800
Adam Schefter, of the <A href="http://www.kffl.com/team/77/nfl">NFL Network, reports the Philadelphia Eagles (http://www.kffl.com/team/29/nfl) must make a decision on WR Terrell Owens (http://www.kffl.com/player/1608/nfl) by Tuesday, March 14. Owens is due a $5 million roster bonus and it is unlikely a team will trade for him now.

[DBoys]

Thanks man you read my mind. I wanted confirmation it was tomorrow.

[Cajuncowboy]

He's coming to Dallas. I just have that sick, queezy feeling in my gut.

I don't like the guy one bit but with that said, I think he would make us better by leaps and bounds.

The secret will be keeping his yap shut.

I think it's time we invest in duct tape.:D

[demdcowboys#1]

will they just let him go or w/e so we can see where he lands, preferably here:) We need that game-changing WR that puts up 125 yd 2 TD games every time he gets on the field, and gives it his all whenever he is on that field!!!!!!!!!

[Cbz40]

I think it's time we invest in duct tape.:D


I put two rolls in your locker......:D

[Cajuncowboy]

I think it's time we invest in duct tape.:D

LOL! That would be a wise investment.

If we do sing TO it would be funny if every Cowboys fan mailed a roll of duct tape to Jerry with a note saying "Thanks for the play making WR. This is to help with his mouth." Maybe TO would get the picture.

[REDVOLUTION]

We should be grateful to the eagles... the did it wrong and now we will do it right... when it comes to handling and "clausing" Owens.

[BrAinPaiNt]

LOL! That would be a wise investment.

:laugh1: I like your evil side.

[CrazyCowboy]

T.O. will look great with a star on his helmet!

[Nors]

If teams are playing hardball they could decide to retain TO, Keep him off street free agency. They are $20M over cap with his money fully accounted for already in Cap.
$$$$ TO SCREW TO? - Priceless!!!!!!

Force interested teams to pony a draft pick up and keep TO out of Division. TO Cut by midnight tonight or tomorrow midnight?

[theogt]

when must the decision be made? 12:01 AM Tuesday or 11:59 PM Tuesday? The PR ramifications from that would be pretty bad.

[the kid 05]

im looking at the ramifications of TO being a cowboy....do u know how this will effect our secondary? going up an top wr EVERYDAY? our players will SKYROCKET! now Tn and Ah and Rw will beable to cover very well...well, at least Tn and Ah, Rw will be vastly improved too...just think of it?

You forget about paying the man his roster bonus. Its easy for Joe forum Nors to say pay him when its not Joe Forum Nors millions of dollars being shelled out.

They tried to get something for him. Its not going to happen. He will be released tomorrow.

Book it? Did I say that right CBZ?

[StylisticS]

So is he cut on 12:01 AM Tuesday? Please say yes

His bonus is due on March 15, so I'll assume that it's 11:59pm tomorrow.....

[Da Hammer]

I HOPE SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:starspin
Me too because i want this drama to be over allready

[leotisbrown]

He better end up in Dallas if he gets a released!!

Lordy if Snyder finds a way to get him for the DeadSkins I'm buying a shotgun and headsing to the hill country.

Show me something good Mister jerry!!

[BigDFan5]

I believe it says the Bonus has to be payed on 5th league year which is weds. So I assume the cut would be at least by 11:59 eastern tuesday night

[theogt]

If the eagles pay the five million, and still nobody wants to trade for him. Then their screwed, they would have to cut him or play him.

I was thinking that, myself. They wouldn't do it to "screw him", but they have a ton of cap space, they may just pay him his bonus to give them more time to trade him.

Just what we need, TO threads that will last into August... :p:

I see what you're saying Nors, but that has got to me one of the dumbest things I've ever heard... "Let's keep him on the team, take the cap hit and not play him just to piss him off."

Lay off the sauce, man. They will cut him. Will they have to cut him by 12:01 tonight since that his when they will have to pay him?

[juck]

After all this hype I am going to be very upset if he goes elsewhere now.

[dal0789]

indeed i would be pissed

[Bizwah]

I believe he would need to be cut by the end of the business day either tomorrow or Wed.

Not sure......

[theogt]

I believe he would need to be cut by the end of the business day either tomorrow or Wed.

Not sure......Either way I couldn't imagine them waiting til the very last second. Thats just ridiculous. Shows something about their franchise if they do.

On a different note, what does the relative silence of Rosenhaus over the past couple weeks say about all this? I would have thought that he would be hogging every camera he could find right now. Maybe this means there's a deal thats already been struck and being low key is part of that deal.

The Broncos still are interested in Eagles WR Terrell Owens, who must be traded or cut by the close of business Wednesday. -- Delaware County Times

This the dumbest suggestion i have ever heard. Rich people don't become rich by giving away money. Yeah, give someone 5 million dollars for screwing over the team and creating havoc for entire organization. That would be a dream come true for T.O.

exactly what i said.that would prove the eagles have less heart then originally thought.

[dbair1967]

a team may have already told the Eagles they will trade for him if they (new team) doesnt have to pay the bonus...

I think you misunderstand what their motivation might be...its a longshot, but I heard it discussed on the radio with someone (I think from TSN)

the motivation for the Eagles to PAY the 5 million would be that perhaps a team (Chiefs, Broncos perhaps) have told the Eagles "yeah we want him, we'll give you something (say a 3rd rd pick, maybe a 2nd) but we dont want to tarde for his current contract...if you eat the bonus, we will make the deal"

that way the Eagles 1) get something for him and 2) he cant go to Dallas

its all specualtion, but it is a possibility

David

[Gryphon]

The Eagles have to trade or release Terrell Owens by Tuesday.
A trade looks highly unlikely at this point. The Chiefs and Cowboys look like the two favorites to take him on. The Broncos may not have the cap room.

The only thing that would argue against that strategy is Lurie is notoriously cheap. Still, it would work out well for a deal between the Broncos and Eagles. Eagles got lots of cap space to absorb the cap hit and the Broncos have an extra first rounder so they probably aren't too worried about giving up a first-day pick for a potential difference-maker.

Not with the new "TO rule" in the new CBA. They could only do that for four games.


They could always cut TO after June 1!!!!!!!!

We went into last 2 seasons with $5M unspent - Lurie is a Bazillionaire and with $25M in cap (including TO) - he's going to be hardpressed to find enough player to spend it all on anyway.

Its retarded.

$5M dollars to get what is probably a 6th or 7th round pick, just so he doesn't go to Dallas who you only play twice in a season?

Any owner who did that should have his head examined.

the Eagles have to pay him the bonus to keep him, after paying him the bonus they could then trade him, keep him or just release him...there isnt much he can do about it

I guess theoretically he could tell everyone involved "I wont go there...I will holdout...I will repeat the Philyl fiasco etc etc" and try to force his release, but I seriously doubt he'd do that if he got his money and his destination were a good team like Denver or KC

[speedkilz88]

Separate Bonus and Cap guys. Eagles are already under Cap with TO money accounted for. They can pay him then retain his rights right up to summer. Then if push comes to shove they cut him after 6-2 and free up cap and you have if nothing else really screwed TO over in Cap derby going on today.

Lurie is a bazillionaire.
To is a jerk that screwed with him.
TO might get punched tomorrow.

I don't drink sauce.

TO won't get cut tonight. I'll call you and raise the bet $100.

[MinnesotaCowboy]

Enough already.................we don't need TO Period!!!! I hope someone does something about him just so we can do away with all the "get TO threads". You'd think he was the best WR ever to put on a jersey! Really great receivers don't have an attitude problem or believe they are "JC Reborn". AND THAT'S THE TRUTH!:mad:

actually TO has a 2 tiered bonus 5 mill due weds and another 2.5 due the end of march

Get over it Nors it isn;t going to happen

i gotta laugh at anyone thinking Philly would pay TO $5 nevermind $5mil.

"here's your $FIVE MILLION TO. thanks for destroying our clubhouse and donny. we'll trade you soon but enjoy your FIVE MILLION DOLLARS in the meantime"

[Bizwah]

Philly will pay it if they're confident of finding a trading partner later.

No , actually TO pulled all his crap TRYING to get cut. He knows some moronic owner will give him a $15M Signing bonus. As is Eagles already lost, they can't get trade value because most think he's cut tomorrow.


Well Philly can keep TO off street, dictate where they trade TO - and not give TO what he wanted.

Brilliant - Priceless move actually.

TO would get a $15M Bonus in free agency.
His salary in his contract is only $770K or so


TO and Roenhouse will be INSANE if they can't get at free agency tomorrow. I'm Lurie and a bazillionaire I'd personally sign the damn check. And turn on ESPN and sit back for the night!

So in Nors logic:

June 2 - 15 million bonus

Total this year: 22.5 million, eagles owner really shows up TO and Drew. TO miserable about his 22.5 million dollar 2006 payoff.

Here's something interesting. I went to the eagle's website to see if they had anything on TO. Nothing. BUT, i went to their roster page and they still had TO listed, however, when you click his name, it takes you to the NFL.com player page which means they have removed him from the team website. I would think that would be a clear sign that his is gone and soon.

so does that mean he has 2 be cut by 2 pm pacific time 2marrow or can the really wait till the minute b4 midnight 2marrow??? i just want the BS to end. I want TO but HES DRIVING THIS FAMILY APART!!! lol all we doing on here for the last month is argue over uncertainties WE MUST UNITE AGAIN!!!

:lmao2: :lmao: :laugh2:

[BulletBob]

They could always cut TO after June 1!!!!!!!!

We went into last 2 seasons with $5M unspent - Lurie is a Bazillionaire and with $25M in cap (including TO) - he's going to be hardpressed to find enough player to spend it all on anyway.

Think outside the box guys!

You should try in the box once in a while

HoL, that was drop-dead funny, dude !!!!

I have no idea if he has to be cut by end of business or end of day. I am not clear on that

[rojan]

Does anybody know what time he has to be cutt tomorw...I think i heard it was the end of the bussness day, wich is think is 4...Im not very positive

It would be appreichated(sp?) if someone is clear this up

I think the more important question is...

what time is Jerry picking TO up from the airport?
;)

[Billy Bullocks]

Fosier Got $5M
Randle El got $12M

What do you think TO gets in free agency?

Hate to say it, but the man is right.

Randle-El is half the WR that T.O. is. I agree with all of you, T.O. has a ****ty attitude, and he's hurt 2 teams, but look at it this way, like Emmitt said about Irvin "this isn't the life hall of fame"....yes TO's decisions have directly hurt his club, but as long as you have that much talent, SOMEONE is going to pay you to play. There is no denying he is a top 3 WR in the league.

You think TO takes anything less than $10mil signing bonus, and you are crazy. He will probably get more than Randle-El, and I'd hate to see us pay it out.

[KobeEgan]

I'd give him a frking 20 mil signing bonus...guy has talent...although I am kind of afraid that he might tear the team apart, he hasnt had a coach like BP. I see TO actually behaving atleast halfway decent here

[ChldsPlay]

Again, if one player can tear a team apart, it's a crap team anyway. The more time goes on, and the more I see the Iggles actions, the less I blame TO. Not his fault Donovan and the other guys are a bunch of choking babies. Not his fault Garcia isn't that good. I personally have no problem with players calling out their teammates. I think it should happen more often. Players need to stop whining and start taking their thrashings like men and either do something to shut it up, or just quit.

[Billy Bullocks]

Well, there's calling out your teammate, or calling him a homosexual for no apparent reason.

[PrimeTime#21]

:star: If it is a 1 yr deal with strict stipulations and he abides by the contract bring him on if not cut his tail loose...............................

[Zippy Speedster]

im looking at the ramifications of TO being a cowboy....do u know how this will effect our secondary? going up an top wr EVERYDAY? our players will SKYROCKET! now Tn and Ah and Rw will beable to cover very well...well, at least Tn and Ah, Rw will be vastly improved too...just think of it?

I'm thinking along these same lines too. Remember how Irvin and Deion used to go on about the same thing, how it made them so much better practicing everyday against one another?

Not to mention TO can learn how to avoid the horsecollar!:lmao2:

[Taz]

I know in the NBA there is a thing called Vet min spurs were abel to pick up former players for cheaper saleries like finely, nVE, etc

maybe they can pick TO up for some league minium? then later pay him more if it works out Only thing is convising TO to take less

Eagles | Owens to be released soon
Tue, 14 Mar 2006 10:39:04 -0800

Updating ongoing reports, ESPN.com (http://www.kffl.com/link/9)'s Len Pasquarelli (http://www.kffl.com/link/17) reports the Philadelphia Eagles (http://www.kffl.com/team/29/nfl) will release WR Terrell Owens (http://www.kffl.com/player/1608/nfl) by 4 p.m. EST Tuesday, March 14.

Nobody knows what the Cowboys are willing to offer TO. Nors thinks the eagles will keep him and pay his bonuses and then release him in June.

[Taz]

mommy mommy TO is comming

bet we already got the play book retooled for him too

[gosuns]

Reports out of a few Philly radio stations right now indicate that the Eagles are rumored have come to the conclusion that they won't be able to trade T.O. for anything of great value and that they plan to release him within the hour. Papers should be at NFL HQ shortly after 3:00pm EST.

[TheHustler]

Haha. Duh. Finally they come to realize it.

[theogt]

Surprise Surprise!

oh, and I thought it was 3:00 CST???

[TwoSteppinJJ]

Nobody is going to trade for him when they know its just a matter of time before he's going to be released.

[DBoys]

Surprise Surprise!

oh, and I thought it was 3:00 CST???

It is

[lzppjb]

3:00 CST is the deadline. If they aren't getting any nibbles, they might as well release him earlier. Maybe they plan on doing it an hour early like it says.

[Nors]

1 1/2 hours and ticking

[DBoys]

3:00 CST is the deadline. If they aren't getting any nibbles, they might as well release him earlier. Maybe they plan on doing it an hour early like it says.

Yeah they will wait until the last minute and I think it is because they know where he is going. No team will want to take an immediate 5 mil hit then another 2.5 in June.

[lzppjb]

I hope they wait and the paper work is late. :D

[Letemburn]

Snatch him up Chiefs, save us fans from having to deal with him.
