so, he sounds sincere.... but i still say he's full of shit and ruins the team by November

decent article though... but let's get over the "i'm picked on" bullshit right now

to is a bigger cocksucker than bonds!

I wouldn't go that far. He didn't cheat as far as we know

I'm not worried, to be honest. If he blows up, so what? This wasn't a Super Bowl team without him. As others have said here, this isn't a high-risk signing in that sense. What's he going to do, prevent us from finishing third in the division again with a slightly-better-than .500 record?

Replace TO with Keyshawn Johnson or Eric Moulds, and I'm not sure I like our chances this season. With TO, at least there's that chance that his performance on the field will outweigh his mouth on and off it.

Parcells is, what, .333 in making the playoffs so far? Ugh. This squad needed to take a chance. And I like the chance we've taken because, like I said, I don't think the risk is all that high considering where we've been the last two years.

I just want to see this piece of shit fall on his face. That is all he is and has always been.

i've been doing my reps in sets of 10 and 8 in his memory.

well this is certainly putting a different spin on things. I remember quite a few Cowboy fans saying the kicker was what kept them out of the playoffs. I don't recall anyone saying, "damn, we need an upgrade at WR".

Your "assrammer Fasano" post is still in my top 3 of all time. I think I have it saved somewhere.

he probably won't ruin the team the first year he's there, after that though it's inevitable.

but, while Keyshawn is a nice chain mover and a solid reciever (exactly what Carolina needed)..... with TO you get a game changer and he's a year younger to go along with the baggage. Sure off the field and on it sometimes he's 4 mentally and he's always concerned that people are speaking ill of him. However, like that first year in Philly, when he wants to be, he's the best in the game. You pretty much need to double him outside of a rare talent at corner. Terry Glenn is still a home run threat on the other side, and they have 2 solid Tight Ends, RB's that can catch and I believe Patrick Crayton in the slot. TO is gravy but it's much better gravy than they had with Keyshawn. The meat and potatoes is the running game and the defense. It was already a good team, but having TO and having a consistant kicker makes the entire team a lot better. They go from being maybe a playoff quality squad to potentially a super bowl type squad.

if TO acts well, the sky is the limit for he and the boys... unfortunately, acting well is his biggest problem... we'll see

though, youre right parch, he just needs to keep his mouth shut

i'm slowly (very slowly) getting over the whole "star" thing, but an apology would be nice

the "star thing" was awesome (as was the ensuing retaliation)....and I'm looking forward to what he has planned if he scores a TD in Philly.

i read he is going to shit in a can of campbells chunky stew

TO is such a fuckin fag. seriously, i hate this guy more than barry bonds right now

correct me if im wrong, or if it was our other philly contigent, but werent you all singing his praises and how he would never fuck over filly

this must have been before i realized he has the emotional stability of a 15 year old girl

sorry man, just busting your balls is all

Well, they really can't blame TO for the Superbowl loss.

Mcnabb was awful in the superbowl. They did redo Mcnabbs contract a few years earlier and they should have. There was plenty of cap room and TO was underpaid even if he did sign the contract because his agent was a fucking idiot not to get him out of the deal with San Fran. The situation could easily have been fixed had they simply gave him the 10 million a year he's good for. The team chose not to play him, it's not like he quit. I'd blame TO for being a baby, Mcnabb for being a primadonna, and the front office for blowing the entire thing out of proportion simply because TO chose an asshole to be his agent.

I know the guy is a head case I get that I get that he's a grown up child, but I don't see where the guy screwed over Philly. He did come out and put them over the top getting them to the superbowl and doing damn near everything he could to help them win it. Mcnabb going down along with other injures screwed the Eagles last year, not the TO drama, that was just newspaper material.

When you go from maybe the best QB in the NFC to Mike Mcmahon, your recipie for success simply isn't there, not to mention David Akers goes down and the depth on the offensive line and defensive line just didn't work out.

I don't really see how one guy screwed Philly. It was a huge clusterfuck.

i think if TO and his agent approached the eagles about redoing his deal it would have been a different situation. instead he went to the media first, and its quite obvious the front office has a hard head and ego and didnt wanna give in b/c they didnt want other players going to the media b/c they want a new contract.

i also dont think he's the reason they made it to the super bowl that year, i think it was the defense. he was the best player in the super bowl and if the eagles would have won he should have been named mvp, but yeah, that didnt happen so whatever.

That's not what he said on our station, for what it's worth. He said that they were the ones that went public with it first that his request was made public from the front office, but take that with a grain of salt because then he obviously went nuts with it. You are absolutely correct the defense was the meat of why they made it there, I'm just saying they finally give Mcnabb a true superstar WR, and it instantly helped put them over the top becuase the scoring went up, and that helps the defense. Obviously it's a team sport, he was simply the piece they were missing IMHO.

I just don't think he screwed the team over. Yeah he compounded a rough situation, and they'd probably have been 8-8 had he been on the field, but the Eagles had a ton of issues last year I just think most of the losses were because of injuries, not because of TO and that drama.
