TO's a great football player. He's even a good person compared to a lot of pro athletes... (no children out of wedlock, no trouble with the law, no steroids, etc.). But he's forgotten that it's a TEAM sport.
Do I want to see the Eagles back in the Superbowl? Hell, yeah. As you know, this year's Superbowl was one of the top ten days of my life. But I'm not sure that TO's as important to that goal as he seems to think he is. As I recall, the team that actually won the Superbowl last year (and the 2 years prior) did so without a star receiver.

I have to admit to admiring his attitude towards his employers:
"Owens told reporters he had not spoken to the team.
'Why would I talk to them? They gave me a week off,' he said."
