taken more heat for telling the truth? Come on lets face it most people think Jeff Garcia looks and sounds like a fairy, I know I do. McNabb did get sick and roll over at the end of the Super Bowl. Neither of those QBs were smart enough to throw to Owens everytime he was single covered and neither of those guys are vocal leaders. I predict TO and Bledsoe will get along well and be very productive.

Yea most people have the common sense not to say those things in public or when standing in front of a microphone but its hard to deny that theres allot of truth behind what he said.

No doubt when you have 53 on a team not all guys are going to get along or even like each other but you have a job to do and they are being paid to do this job and part of the job is not running down teammates to the media. All that does is cause more division in the locker room and that is one thing Dallas does not need.

Ok dirst of all TO wasn't sayin things about Jeff Garcia till after he knew he would no longer be on the team. With the eagles, It is hard to say for certain what happend, but I belive promises were made and then "forgotten" by the eagles....they went to the press then TO went to defend himself. Things got nasty....people behind the scenes probally made comments and TO put McNabb on blast. The whole situation with the eagles was prety much childish on both parties. It seems to me that people were antagonizing TO at work as well. You know when you are pissed you dont' want to people making smart comments around. But for the games he did play in, he did play extreamly well.

Everyone's fault but TO. TO was creating problems for Garcia while still a member as well as creating problems with the offensive coaches and once again in Philly problem with the QB and coaches. Yeah it is everyone but TO.

In your eyes it was only TO.

Both sides should have handled things differently.

They released him and I know Landry would have done the same. Sorry these excuses for TO are too much it is always someone else’s fault now that he is in Dallas but before people felt different about his action. Mine have not he is a punk and has shown it on numerous occasions and only until he shows he has changed his ways will I change my mind.

Ummmm your wrong, Owens was bumbing his gums WHILE being a niner. Garcia WAS the QB he was talking about. They were teammates.;)

Im not making excuses Im stating facts, like it or not all TO did was speak the truth and state his opinions publically. You act like TO was the only one to blame.

The others did not rip TO to the media it was the other way around. No doubt guys will have disagreements but on a team you keep in the locker-room you deal with it like a man not some wuss running to the media shooting his stupid mouth off. As for the truth? BS he made derogatory statements and nothing of fact

The two words that are most important in this thread is 'tact' and 'instigation.'

TO lacks the former and relishes in the latter.

We don't but we do know he took it to the media as he always does which helps to create a bigger problem. Once these stories hit the wire you are forced to deal with it constantly when it never had to come to that to begin with. It is not an accident that TO has the reputation he does and it was not created by the media it was created by his own doings.
