Well, Reid was already quoted as saying he knows that Owens has friends on the team and he's not upset by that--that's when Trotter was campaigning for Owens to be reinstated. But if he's pissed that the invites were smuggled in to the locker room--that is why he's probably mad--that the players didn't trust him enough to openly say they had been invited to the party.

Reid knew about the invites. Everyone on the team got them pretty much. They were talking about it on Comcast Sports Net the day they were given out.

Updated again:

Irvin led the crowd in a rendition of "Happy Birthday," holding a celebratory cake up for Owens to see. After the singing was over, Owens addressed the revelers.

"I'm still a Philadelphia Eagle until the end of the year," he said. "I love Philly, I love my teammates and thank you to everybody who came here tonight and showed me their love."

He added: "I ain't ever going to let anyone change me. I will be back."

A day earlier, the reigning conference champion Eagles were eliminated from playoff contention with their sixth loss in seven games. Jevon Kearse and Lito Sheppard were among the 11 Eagles who had arrived at the party by 11:15. By one count, there were 19 Eagles at the party, including players on injured reserve and the practice squad.

None of the players were concerned that management would have a problem with them attending the party.

and why would they be?

[BigEd76]

Because it would appear that 1/3 of the team has taken TO's side of the feud...just a hunch?

  This whole taking sides thing is getting old.

ITs calling partying. They went to party. Big farging deal.

Making stories out of nothing.

seriously....sides were taken long ago...this party does nothing to change that

Nail on the head IGY.
Donovan's comments clearly show a divided lockerroom since the beginning of all this bullshtein.

Look folks... NFL Player Terrell Owens had a birthday party at Rapper Jay-Z's 40/40 club.  I'd say the chances are more than a little bit that there'd be some "shoe models" there.  If you were a young man in the NFL... wouldn't you go?  I know damn well I would.

There are no "sides" taken by going to this party.  Trotter is a guy who obviously still wants TO on the team.  He wasn't at the party.  Does that mean he changed his mind?

This party don't mean shtein... and people need to stop blowing this up to be something more than it is.

[PhillyGirl]

Well said.

Burn him.
