and the way he is acting because he wants a new contract with more money?
He and Andy Reid had a fight yesterday and he left training camp. He's acting like a real @sshole!

Ohhh, I haven't read anything about this yet. I'll have to pick up the Globe today. I never liked him because he is all about TO. I HATE show boats in sports and I don't care how good they are! You need a team to win, not one superstar. Of course, don't tell that to the superstars!
Here is an article about TO and how he is now dissing his quarterback Donovan McNabb. Jon said that the other Eagle players aren't very fond of TO....he said it in harsher words...no wonder they don't like him, huh? Sounds like he is all about T.O.

McNabb tells Owens to stop talking about him
NFL.com wire reports
BETHLEHEM, Pa. (Aug. 12, 2005) -- Donovan McNabb insisted he wasn't stung by criticism from Terrell Owens, laughing off the banished wide receiver's remarks before turning serious and telling him to "keep my name out of your mouth."
While Owens left his home for the Bahamas, McNabb joked with reporters, tapped the mikes and rubbed his hands together before taking his seat inside a jammed media tent shortly after Philadelphia 's practice on Aug. 12.
"Yeah! C'mon, bring it!" McNabb said to laughter.
Owens again blasted McNabb on two separate interviews with ESPN on Aug. 11, calling the quarterback a "hypocrite" and saying the two of them could not be successful together. Owens also said he had no desire to speak with McNabb.
"It's so funny to me how my name keeps getting thrown out there," McNabb said. "You've just got to have fun with it and that's exactly what we're doing."
Owens was told to go home Aug. 10 after a heated dispute with coach Andy Reid -- and to stay there for a week. He's since lifted weights and shot hoops in front of the reporters camped outside his house and had harsh words for Reid and McNabb in TV interviews.
On the morning of the 11th, Owens left his Moorestown, N.J., home with two suitcases and went to Philadelphia International Airport, where he told KYW-TV as he headed to a security gate: "I'm going to the Bahamas. I'm going to get a tan."
McNabb, light and smiling throughout his interview, agreed with Owens the two didn't necessarily have to speak to win.
"I still to this day see no reason for us to talk," McNabb said. "When we step on this field, it's all about business. We're professionals that line up and do the right thing."
This was the second time this year McNabb has warned Owens to stop talking about him.
After Owens complained that McNabb was tired in the Super Bowl, McNabb said "Just keep my name out of your mouth," during a mandatory minicamp.
McNabb, who made a recruiting pitch to get Owens to Philadelphia before last season, was tired of hearing Owens complain.
"Now for my name to be thrown out again, this is the second time. Keep my name out of your mouth," he said. "Keep my family's name out of your mouth."
Owens called McNabb a "hypocrite" because the quarterback said publicly that he did not want to meet with Owens, while T.O said McNabb did try to arrange a meeting.
McNabb said he didn't learn until Aug. 11 that his brother did reach out to someone close to Owens to arrange a meeting where the two Eagles could possibly work out their differences.
McNabb was bothered that Owens brought his family into his televised rants.
"My family doesn't need to be involved in any of this. I don't need to be involved in any of this," he said. "Now when you bring my family into it, I have a problem."

I bet he wished he kept TO's name out of his mouth when he did this. TO is such a jerk. That's why I love the Pats so much; Bill Belichick won't allow players to act like this, he'll pull them out of the game and keep them out for a few if need be. He doesn't deal well with egos and I like that. It's such a waste to see talented players acting like this, they end up losing out in the long run because no one is going to pay the big bucks for them if he is disrupting the entire team, ya know?
For all I care, TIO can work on that tan of his for the entire season.
I don't like him at all! But he is on my fantasy team and I declined to trade him, unfortunately he is good!
I hate to tell you, but if the Eagles continue having problems with him, he might not get to play at all. That means he won't be of benefit to your fantasy team. I hope i'm wrong though.

Annette! I still don't know officially how it is done. I just assumed that the players on our fantasy teams stats are calculated and thus, we are given a winner and scores from those stats. Am I in the ball park or a totally different game?

I don't think we can change the team names at this point. I tried to figure that out but didn't see a way to do it.
This is how dh explained it to me.
For example, I have the following players in my team, right.
Manning, Peyton QB IND
Jones, Julius RB DAL
Jordan, LaMont RB OAK
Johnson, Keyshawn WR DAL
Williams, Roy WR DET
Gonzalez, Tony TE KC
Janikowski, Sebastian K OAK
Eagles, DST DST PHI
Basically if lets say Manning throws a touchdown pass to his WR. Then my team gets the points because Manning scored. Same if the Eagles defense scores a touchdown, then my fantasy team gets the points. Etc..
If any of your players score a touchdown then your fantasy team gets the point also. That is why you have to be careful in the players you pick and have to read who is injured because it'll affect your fantasy team if it's one of your players. Do you get it? I'm not sure if I explained that right.

To is very nice to look at as long as he keeps his mouth shut. His body is amazing. As an eagles fan I think he just needs to shut up and play. Mcnabb and him have to start talking or they wont be able to make it on the field. Things have cooled down some it seems he is at practice but wont be at the thrus night game still because of his groin
