called McNabb a Hypocrite and said he has no intention to talking to Donovan this year

-Got into a disagreement with the offensive coordinator and told him not to talk to him unless TO's asks him a question

-Threw Reid under the bus.

For the first time, I think TO will either be released or traded. Reid won't want to put up with this circus all year long and it doesn't look like TO will back off. I always thought TO would play this year, but now I am not too sure.

Pretty comical interview though

That ought to do wonders for their chemistry.

Typical TO

He also said this about Childress:

"he (childress) was antagonizing me by everyday saying 'Hi Terrell, Hi Terrell."


That mean SOB. Keep your hello's to yourself guys.

TO basically said that while Reid was telling him that he had to do the autograph's, Reid at one point told him to "shut-up" and he took great offence to that. He said that he's not TO's parent and therefore can't disrespect him like that.

He also said Childress (Eagles OC) was constantly making witty comments at him and he finally at one point told him to not say anything to him if TO didn't say anything to him first. He made it clear that this had nothing to do with football, it was things that were being said off the field.

That was the jist of it.

He will certainly NOT be released...they won't take that cap hit.
He will NOT be traded...you have to have a trade partner...who would want a guy this disruptive and unhappy averaging 7 million a year? There were only 2 teams interested in acquiring him last time.

There are only 2 viable scenerios:

1. The regular season rolls around and everyone focuses on the game...TO plays hard but continues to be astranged in the Locker Room.

2. He ends up suspended without pay until he's contrite...while suspended, he costs the Eagles nothing.

But you won't see the suspension route during training camp...only if he continues to be more trouble than good when the regular season rolls around. History has shown that teams will put up with just about anything if the guy plays his heart out between the lines and helps them win games...they'll hate it and him, but they'll put up with it.

I agree Reid wants him gone...NOW; but, who would want to pay and put up with such a malcontent?! Rosenhaus and Owens deserve each other.

He could very well be released or traded, regardless of what the cap hit is. Philly has enough cap room. The Vikings took an $8 million cap hit to get rid of Moss, and I would say that TO's behavour is far more disruptive and the Eagles are far more of a hardline front office and HC than the Vikings.

Me...me...me....

"I'm the one being disrespected...."

Last I looked, he was just an EMPLOYEE. Nothing more than that.

It's obvious that they guy never has had a "real" job.

Trade him to Baltimore and lets see how that locker room explodes with TO and Ray Lewis in it. :laugh2:

If he were to try that stuff with Ray Lewis, they would never find the body. Ray has learned a few tricks since the last time.

He's the best and most consistent player the Eagles had last year. They have no other proven wide outs-- I don't care what the company line is that is not a good situation and you can't consider them front runners for anything without receivers.

I am sure teams are knocking down the Fecal's door with offers. Probably one of the best, but who would want the trouble. If I were the Eagles, I'd let him set, fine him, not pay him. They are not that strapped under the cap they can't afford to. They restructure his contract things are only going to get worse in Philly down the road. No matter what happens i am enjoying the way their camp is going. I just read Brown is hurt too, I love it.

They did not have any receivers before TO.

That was always the knock on them....but they still got to the NFC championship game.

And now the core players and the coaches are no doubt developing a chip on thier shoulders where this subject is concerned. They probably now desperately want to prove that they can win it without TO.
