He also said that TO wasn't too happy with Drew "talking out of turn" and saying that TO would be disruptive when in fact TO never said that and did not want to come in and cause trouble....

Phreaks right about that. 

I think that the TO affair is just about over except for the media frenzy keeping it alive.

That, and RJS's pyromania.

Hey Coach...if I catch 15 TDs this year, I wanna wear CAMO tights!"

what do you mean the team was "divided over TO and McNabb" ...... meaning there are players siding with Owens to hold out the season?  huh?

Quote"We are going to keep everything quiet," Rosenhaus said after the meeting. "I am going to go home and let Terrell focus on football. We'll stay in touch with the team. I thought it was worthwhile and productive and I'm happy that we had the chance to sit down. We'll continue with the process quietly, behind the scenes and efficiently."

I thought Sal Pal was going to cream himself on ESPN...he talked about a 70-yard TD pass from Donovan to TO and he was drooling all over himself.

To be quite honest...the thought of that makes me drool all over myself too..... :paranoid

And, with that...Drew was gone.

Yeah, I believe that's a spin of defeat from Rosenhaus right there. All he proably got out of Joe and Andy is "If TO goes out and has a year like he had last year, we'd definitely be interested in retaining him beyond 2005."

Maybe they even suggested they'd consider restructuring the remaining years and 2006 roster bonus in a way that would benefit both sides AFTER this season...but, the real message was "You're not getting another nickel for 2005...so, beat it."

that kind of quote from Rosenhaus only comes out when you have been verbally destroyed.   Andy Reid is Satan, in a good way.

It honestly was just a load of crap from SalPal.

The one example I remember him using was a stretch of Trotter's (I believe it was Trotter's) statement about having to be "man enough" to get over TO's comments.  Sally tried to slant this in saying that Trotter was in TO's camp, and somehow against McNabb.

That was the only specific example I can remember him using in PTI.  He said that the camp was "definitely divided," and that the team was "trying to paper it over."

Did anyone else watch Spadaro's Spud-cam thing?

I could have sworn that T.O. was wearing white tights under his shorts.

Maybe this whole contract squabble was really over those sissybitch tights of his!
