''I'm leaving America's team (for) North America's team,'' Owens said at a news conference.

Looks like Rush was wrong on this one. He predicted TO would go with Oakland.
I guess T.O. was smart enough to realize that a one-year deal was all he was going to get.
He’ll probably have a good season, because he’ll have something to prove.
Damn, I wanted to see him stay in the NFC East and sign with the Redskins. He was a Giants fan’s best friend, destroying whatever team he played for.
T.O. in Buffalo - I hope this doesn’t mean that Marshawn Lynch is on his way out.
He is a cancer on whatever team is foolish enough to have him. He no longer has superstar talent, but still has the ego and can’t see that his best days are behind him.
just what I was thinking, Id rather not have him on the Bills..
The Manny Ramirez of the NFL.
T.O. needs a crash course from Manny Ramirez....’How to get owners to give you lucrative contracts while acting like the team jackass’.
Understandable. I was sure he would sign with the Raiders. Everyone I spoke to about this agreed with me.
As for Philly-- it's true, Owens wasn't the one who got tired at the end of the Superbowl! Owens had 10 catches for 120 yards coming off an injury! So for McNabb to throw a fit about it-- that guy cries as much as TO.
“The Manny Ramirez of the NFL.”
LOL
More. But McNabb always give media acceptable mia culpa’s after each poor performance.
Maybe if Rush had said something about TO like he did about McNabb TO would still have a job.
Rush may have given McNabb job security. There have certainly been enough reasons to bench him or fire him.

Except that Manny has championship rings. ....and a very large contract. ....and is far more valuable to his team that Owens ever was. .....and doesn't throw teammates under the bus. ...and doesn't conduct post-game drama queen press conference productions.
Thank God Snyder didn’t buy him for the Redskins!
They can have him. Anything that makes my Pokes less weird. If they’d just fire the owner, we’d be on the road back.

Bills fans are the most patient in the league. They havent been to the playoffs in 10 years. If he causes some excitement, esp. for the Toronto games, then mgmt and fans are happy. If he is a jackass again, well, it’s only one year.....
