The whole situation is confusing...when the announcers said that yesterday I hadn't heard it before....who knows what the real story is, I'm sure it will unfold soon enough.I think the Eagles don't want the league to get involved, so the "inactive" story makes sense to me, we will see....

That's just crazy enough to be real. He's got a lot of issues about them not celebrating him enough. His latest public beef, that got all this rolling, was that they didn't celebrate his 100th TD. I can see that a little because 11 TDs is rarified company, but I also look at it and think only 20 of those TD were with Philly so I don't see why they in particular should consider it worth spending money on.

Oops, should be "100 TDs is rarified company", not sure what the fingers were thinking.

You never saw my abs...lol

Who else will pick him up? Course Lawrence Phillips kept getting chances so he will too

I feel nothing for the eagles since they sold their sold and got what they asked for

Peter King is turning against him and this is the guy who has his head up Ray Lewis's rearend so you know Terrell is a jerk if this guy has turned

In a way, his suspension/inactive status dissapoints me. I was SOOOOOOO hoping that Roy Williams et al would have a chance to lay the wood to TO when he came in their territory. Next Monday's game will have been somewhat watered down. Let TO play. Roy and the Boys will instill some of their own brand of discipline on TO. Based on Philly's performance last night, it wouldn't take much to do that.
Philly needs to get some industrial strength chemo therapy and get rid of that cancer they have. Even the Eagles don't deserve that kind of problem.

Assuming Reid was telling the truth there's still the chance of him being on the field for the Cowboys game, Reid said they'll be meeting this week and see what they can work out. I'm really not expecting them to work anything out though, TO is hyper sensitive about slights and quick to strike back, I just don't see Reid apologizing for anything he doesn't consider to be wrong behavior on his part and without that TO is just going to keep getting angrier and more obnoxious.

There are two of his td's that stick in my crawl. They should have resulted in an immediate suspension for it's sheer arrogance. Those two involved the most outrageous case of self-agrandizement I've ever seen in any game at any level. Those two td's involved the start at midfield at Texas Stadium. Since then, TO's been an extremely dim bulb. He needs professional help. Hope he gets some.

Interesting. I thought I heard the commentators in last nights Redskins/Eagles game say he was suspended with pay. Though I wouldn't put it past them to be wrong.

Yeah, but can Collins throw two footballs at the same time? Because that's the only way he could ever keep those two crybabys happy.

I enjoy TOs endzone stunts.

Really? You enjoy his self-centered, childish behavior?

I can't imagine anyone wanting this head case on their team.

Perhaps an Arena Football League team would be interested in Owens' services.

I've been a die hard Eagles fan since I was old enough to understand the rules, but these days, this clown is making the team unwatchable.

Reid should really just can him.

Hurry up and trade him to the Raiders...he'll fit right in here. Owens and Moss - Kerry Collins could only dream of such targets. ;)

No way will a NFL Team pick up this loser. He dissed the QB and any QB in their right mind would not want this primadonna. He might make the QB look good on one or two plays, but TO will spew his mouth about the QB.

You never talk about other players, good, bad, on team, opposing team, never talk about the other players.

This guy is radioactive.

Anyone else watch his half-a$$ed apology yesterday?

Wonder if it's going to be good enough for Andy Reid.
