I wish I could punch the stupid reporters in the face.

Report the news, dickheads. Quit the controversey.

Everyone in the media (and fans, mostly) said if he showed up and STFU then it would be cool. But now they're tired of him not talking to them and giving them great quotes so its time to nitpick.

I'd like to see Donovan ignore the dumbass questions. Just make a funny face or something when asked a retarded question.

did you hear sal pal bring up the play where TO got pulled down from behind (the play where he pushed off on the CB). sal asked if donovan asked the referee why that wasn't called a penalty. donovan said because TO is his teammate and all that crap. then sal asked him if TO said anything to him after that, donovan said, "yeah, thanks" and just shook his head and laughed

Nah, I missed that. I missed all of Sal Pal's "reporting", thankfully. That guy is a stone cold hack.

Dude...when I was at Lehigh he was nowhere to be seen on the sidelines. There was his camera guy and the boom microphone guy and no Sal Pal. But when I got home and turned on ESPN there was Sal talking like he was standing right there by TO the entire time when in fact it was just his camera guy.

From the AP story on ESPN.Com...

QuoteOwens hasn't endeared himself to fans by demanding a new contract just one season into the seven-year, $48.97 million deal he signed in March 2004. But the notoriously boorish Philly fans didn't get a chance to give Owens an earful. He heard plenty of cheers after his score.

WTF??

$:-\$

Now all of a sudden we're boorish? Whatever.

Shut up or I'll throw a bottle at your head, boo your children and pee in your bathroom sink!!

i have to admit, i can be pretty boorish

Of all the generalizations made about Philly fans, "boorish" is probably one of the more accurate one.

And I'm okay with that.

QuoteEagles | Owens Aggravated Groin Injury
Fri, 26 Aug 2005 22:09:17 -0700

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid, following the team's preseason game Friday, Aug. 26, said WR Terrell Owens (groin) re-tweaked his groin against the Cincinnati Bengals. Reid said he would have more information on Owens' status Saturday, Aug. 27. "He just kind of reaggravated it a little bit," Reid said.

I already posted this when I went on my tangent about Sal Pal.

He's not playing next week, so who cares?

the questions to donovon were absurd during his press conference.

"you are a competitive player, doens't kill you not to be able to celebrate with the player you just made a play with?"

it's getting ridiculous. they were communicating on the field, TO was communicating with AR, it will all be just fine.

Agreed. McNabb LAUGHING at Sal Pal when he asked about what TO said to him after McNabb argued with the ref about the non-call on the horsecollar tackle was classic though

"Hey, kid. Hey, kid. Hey, kid....."

"Don't talk to me unless I talk to you first, Childress."

PhillyGirl · August 27, 2005, 09:55:26 AM

posted the first one already. LOL...

sheesh, you and mike both.

PhillyPhreak54 · August 27, 2005, 09:56:31 AM

Cool pic.

"When's your contract up, Chad?"

PhillyPhreak54 · August 27, 2005, 10:01:55 AM

I just wanted to mention that I really like what Juqua Thomas has shown. I really think he has a good shot at making the team. He is making some plays. I actually prefer him to Jamaal Green.

And Adrien Clarke played very well last night. Good for him.

Kiss Sciullo goodbye.

He's still hurting...we all care.

I didn't read through the play-by-play here (but I usually do during the game, so thanks to all who post it), but I was looking at the AP write-up:

Quote
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- No high-five, no handshake, not even a nod of approval.

Donovan McNabb and Terrell Owens already weren't speaking to each other. No surprise they aren't exchanging congratulations, either.

True, or more noise created by the media?
