Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I'd love it if they cut him and no one wanted to sign him. 404123[/snapback] I would prefer if the Eagles kept him for all 6 years of his contract, and fined him/withheld salary for every day out of training camp/not with the team. Then, after six years, he would be a washed-up nobody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Riddler Posted August 10, 2005 Author Share Posted August 10, 2005 Sal Palentonio just reported that Owens wouldnt interact with teammates last week when Sal was at eagles camp for 6 days. Sal said and i quote the atmosphere was "Poisonousness" and also went on to say that he could see this blow up coming a mile away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRH Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 If I had to guess, it would be that TO is faking his injury (i.e., only going to camp to avoid being fined) and Reid called him on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin in Va Beach Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 ESPN is saying Reid told him to leave. That leaves the Eagles on the hook to continue paying him I believe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richNjoisy Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 YOU COULDN'T PAY ME to let owens on the Bills Say NO to the O-Hole, a poor excuse for human excrement!! That being said... Eric Moulds, Josh Reed and a 4th pick for T.O. and Corey Simon. 404112[/snapback] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Wheels Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I can't help but think of what Hunter Kelly went through in his 8 years of life, and this POS claims to be a victim because he's only making $3.25 million a year. TO makes me sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRH Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 And I don't want TO either, but you would think they would be even more in need of a wide receiver now. How about Sam Aiken and a third for Simon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Well, the report says TO was asked to leave. Now they can't fine him because they kicked him out. 404157[/snapback] I'm not sure about that. If a guy violates team rules and he's kicked out or suspended, the team, I believe, can still fine him. Of course, it's not going to be the daily fine the team could impose on a player for missing training camp---but they might be able to fine him one large sum.

Realist Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I can't believe anyone around the league would want this guy! That is, except for the Raiders and dolfelons. He would be a cancer the moment he stepped off the plane in the new team's city. He'll be nearly impossible to trade. Reid will want to get value for the talent, but the other teams aren't going to want to give up much, knowing TO's attitude and the Eagle's will be desperate to get rid of him. Not saying that's the situation now, but it looks like its headed that way. I doubt TO plays for the Eagles this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave mcbride Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Seriously though, is there a bigger a-hole in the NFL right now? 404124[/snapback] definitely - ray lewis for one. plus the large contingent of serial wife and girlfriend beaters.

MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 watched something last week that said he should not go to camp and then leave, cause once you report and are there at least five days, there is something in the contract that makes it very bad for the player. What that is I forget, so this post is rather useless, but will dig for some info Yeah, if a vested veteran (more than 4 years in the NFL) does that, the team can put him on the "reserve/suspended" list or something like that, prevent him from playing the whole season, and still get to keep him for the same remaining number of years after that. But I don't know if that applies when the teams kicks the player out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syhuang Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Can Eagles really trade TO? I doubt they are able to absorb the cap hit since TO is only on the second year of the sever year contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
