nyk Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 ESPN is reporting that the Dallas Cowboys have released WR Terrell Owens.Came here to post this, but now I can't stop laughing.Greatest. Avatar. Ever.I just saw it too, I really dunno what team would possibly take a chance on this guys, well besides the Raiders, they'll take anyone.And wasn't he supposed to host a reality show for a spot on the Cowboys' practice squad roster?Nope....that was Irvin. ( )Owens was suppose to have one this year on VH1, but i dont think it had anything to do with Cowboys practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysox Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I 'm suprised too. I say the Vikings go after him, since they got screwed by Houshmanzada. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generally Managing Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Not sure if it's been posted on a previous page, but the Patriots have signed CB/S Shawn Springs.In his last sixteen-start season (2007) he made sixty-two tackles and grabbed four interceptions. Low-risk move. Hello, my name is Rich and I'm a baseball-holic. And an OOTP-holic.... and maybe even an alcoholic. Oh no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Eagles sign safety Sean Jones to a 1 year contract. All things considered, I like the signing, because it gives them an experienced player for a year while Quintin Demps is groomed for the job. Unfortunately for Jones, he will be slaughtered from day one for being viewed at as management's replacement for Dawkins. To his credit, Joe Banner had the courage to come on the radio the other day and explain what happened with the Dawkins thing, but just got slaughtered by the callers. The Eagles management has never been popular, but I've never seen a backlash like what's going on now. These guys literally have to watch their backs when walking down the street, because apparently there are groups "staking them out" and yelling insults at them. I love a-holes that say that Philadelphia always runs it's stars out of town and say that players are treated like trash here, but then when the city embraces a player and wants him to stay, they're criticized for having outrage when that player is done wrong. The only players that are treated like trash are the ones who are trash, with the possible exception of Mike Schmidt, who deserved his ridicule for most of his career until he "got it" and was able to finally connect with the city towards the end of his career.

chestnutz Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I really like the Jones signing. Needed a safety and he'll come in and provide SOMETHING. Could turn out to be a really solid player for us too.But there still needs to be more noise made I think. With the safety problems solved as much as they can be until the draft, attention has to be turned to the offense. I would still love if they somehow (would never happen) would trade for Boldin or Edwards. That or a solid backup RB. erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dam Eagles R Retarted!!"It's never good to see a co-worker be fired, but IMO he deserved it for being so stupid to post something like that on there. I'm still incensed by the whole situation, but I never posted anything anywhere that my name or affiliation with the team was public, nor would I post anything publicly about my full-time employer either.I'm not sure what's worse - the fact that he took a shot at his (part time) employer on a public site, the fact that he actually took time to post something and that was the best he could come up with (seriously - "Dam Eagles R Retarted"? Come on - dude is obviously not very intelligent), or the fact that there's actually Eagles fans "outraged" about this. I hate the management as much as anyone, but how anyone can defend this guy is beyond me.

Point still holds, though.We see it happen everytime a lowly team picks up a coach from a successful team. If he don't bring in a steady infusion of coaches from his former team, he'll certainly bring in his own players from his old team. (And sometimes, they'll do both). Look at Josh McDaniels in Denver, Rex Ryan in New York. Rod Marinelli did it in Detroit (from Tampa Bay). Whisenhunt's now doing it in AZ. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was apparently a gate supervisor, so he probably just made sure that the ticket-takers were... well, taking tickets (and dealing with idiots who purchased counterfeit tix from scalpers.) Honestly, the Eagles don't pay very well, and you only really get 8-10 hours of work each game day (so 10 Eagles games, Temple games (for some employees), concerts, and a couple of other misc. events) so it's not like this guy lost his livelihood.I only have my job because I get to watch 99% of the game, without having to pay for season tickets (not that you can even get them.) I can't even imagine why anyone would want one of these jobs if they weren't a fan and got one of the field-viewing details. I find it really hard to have any compasion for this guy.
