What about a player assaulting not one teammate, but two? That just an off the field issue too?

Those kinds of things happen. Players get in fights on the field. Happens from High School football all the way up. And while Steve Smith has had his problems in situations like that, I can't remember him ever criticising his QB, or coaching decisions etc... In the heat of the moment, a lot of things happen, but when something is said in a press conference after the game is over and the player has had time to think about it, its something that is going to attract unwanted attention.

And fwiw, the worse thing about Owens coming here would not be Owens himself, but the media focus that came with it. Everything Owens did would be analayzed over and over again on the national media. Even when he didn't do anything wrong, he would still do something wrong.

Hey he may have had legitimate gripes with his team mates, but of course the media is always right because fans are as fickle as they look. He was upset because he wanted the ball and he wanted to win. You didn't here anything from T.O. in 06 when the Eagles went to the Super Bowl. The guy wants to win and he wants to be involved. I guess none of you played a sport before. You were the one's in the stands at your high school and college football games. Well news flash any real athlete wants the ball in their hands.

If your still concerned with his problems from three years ago then you are probably "Gay". As a football player I will take T.O. and you can have Charly Martin and I guarantee you that I will win every time.

T.O. caused no problems in Buffalo and that was without a fugging quarterback that could actually play. He realizes that his time is drawing near and he may not have the much time left in the league but everytime he steps out on the field he plays his game.

Calling people gay? What are you, 12 years old? Nevermind, thought I was having a discussion with an adult.

I agree. A lot of stuff happens in football, including fuming with teammates.

you are also dead on about the media.

You and I agreeing? I think hell did just freeze over, or it must be getting close to football season. :)

It's been a long offseason. Spartanburg is in the air! :D

I make decision's on the athlete not the person, if I didn't then I would say hey lets trade Steve Smith to the Browns for Jake Delhomme because Jake is a nicer guy and has less off the field issues....but I look at talent, production, then the person when it comes to sports.

If you think that T.O. is not a good football player than you need to go somewhere else, if you think T.O. can not produce, than you need to go somewhere with the other guy, and if you are going to tell a Hall Of Famer that he can not be on your team because he disagreed with his quarterback then you have never played a sport in your life.

Grow Up, except the fact that T.O. would make this team better and just admit you are saying no because you are pretending you are Jerry Richardson not because you actually think he would be a cancer to our team I mean give me a break. If Michael Vick is not a cancer than no one is.
