They can suspend him for the remainder of his contract, basiclly he won't be able to play or get paid for the next few years if they want.

The word is, he got in an argument with the OC and told the OC "Not to talk to him, only to talk to him when he told him to" so Reid heard this and stepped in and told him to "Shut Up". Which escalated it.

Plain and simple, he's doing whatever he can to force a trade because he wants a new deal.

TO has the phsyical tools to be the best WR in the league, but not the head.
Moss is the same, we'll see if Oakland changes him.
Have to give Harrison the nod as the top WR, simply because of the top 5 (Harrison, Owens, Moss, Holt, Johnson) he's the least likely to go mental and has a great team arround him, so rarely gets double teamed. Holt is pretty focused to, but doesn't have the team around him he once did.

The only years Moss had a good team around him were 98 and this year. 98 he was a rookie, and still torched everyone. Last year, he was hurt. So by saying Harrison has a great team around him is admitting that he's tops in stats only.

I highly doubt Moss will change in Oakland. As has been reported, he may have gotten worse. First off, he feels like he must prove that he still "does what he wants," and second off, he has been dropping a lot of easy catches. Maybe he's going to stink it up and force another trade -- MN

You really have to watch Harrison every week to appreciate the little things he does along with the amazing things he does. Obviously he isnt the type that will out jump 2 corner backs for a ball then run it 20 more yards after the fact. Thats not Marvin , but thats what sport center highlights fall in love with. Thats what people seem to measure athletisism on these days. Thats what got TO and Moss on the highlight reals and there attitudes keep them on the highlight news shows.

Watch how Harrison runs his routes. He never moves his shoulders. I read a poll last year in sporting news that said 75% ( somewhere in the 70% range ) of DB's said Harrison was the toughest to cover because of his route running. He runs full speed and never moves his shoulders. When he breaks to the post or to the outside. You never know it. So the DB's are always trying to catch up.

Harrison is the most spectacular reciever in the league, pre-catch. Meaning when they show a overview of a TD pass to Harrison. Watch how he splits 3 DB's and pretty much manipulates them into doing and going where he wants so that he can be open. When this guy retires people will look back on this stuff and realize how amazing he is or was. Moss and TO dont do that stuff because they are big and physical. They dont have to. Harrison is smaller so he has to make up for the physical by using the mental. He's the smartest reciever in the league. He has the best route running in the league. The most balanced reciever in the league. (IMO) The best hands in the league. He doesnt have to put up 18 TD's because he has 2 other guys playing with him who are capable of putting up 10 TD's. One of those guys ( Reggie Wayne ) will be a star in this league if not this year , but next. I guarantee it.

All in all Marvin is just a guy that you like. He's a guy that i love to route for not just because he's on my team, but because he doesnt get the press that TO and Moss gets. He doesnt get it because he doesnt want it. He doesnt complain or take plays off. So its impossible for him to get that kind of press.

Owens attends Falcons-Ravens game
/ Associated Press
Posted: 1 hour ago

ATLANTA (AP) - Terrell Owens was at a football game Saturday night. Just not one involving the Philadelphia Eagles.

Unhappy with his contract and sent home for a week by the Eagles, Owens attended the Atlanta Falcons' preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens at the Georgia Dome.

The receiver has a home in Atlanta and plenty of time on his hands after getting kicked out of Eagles camp, the fallout from a heated dispute with coach Andy Reid. He can't return to camp until Wednesday, but has made it clear he won't be happy without a new contract.

Philadelphia has steadfastly refused to redo the seven-year, $49 million deal that Owens signed before last season.

Owens, who was sitting four rows behind the Falcons bench, declined comment when approached by a reporter.

While the Falcons desperately need a big-time receiver, team officials have said privately that there's no chance to trading for Owens.

Rush Limbaugh has offered to mediate between McNabb and Owens.

This just gets better.

I remember that game.

But did anybody see the pregame of the Ealges-Steelers game? The Eagles president or something had some interview before the game and he literally had the worst hair piece I've ever seen. Just wondering if anybody else had noticed.
