This is a picture from March, 2004. Happy times. Terrell Owens is getting what he wants. A seven-year contract worth almost $49 million.He helps the Eagles make it to the SuperBowl. He makes a heroic effort to play after recovering from a serious injury. No one can deny his brilliant performance in that game.
Fast forward to August, 2005. Terrell Owens is whining, complaining, and calling it "business" that he is worth more money after a good, but not phenomenal year. He wants a new contract. The Eagles haven't budged and T.O. decides to repeat his antics with the 49'ers. He badmouths his coach and his quarterback....a lot...on national TV. So much for the history lesson.
There aren't enough words to describe the depth of T.O.'s self-centeredness. He is a cancer. T.O. and his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, are pathetic examples of everything that's wrong with America's popular culture. T.O. may be a gifted athlete, but he has some serious deficiencies in his character. T.O. is a three year old trapped in a ProBowl body. Unfortunately, Andy Reid and the Eagles have the unfortunate task of raising the boy to be a man.
Good luck, Coach Reid.
Go Falcons!
