There are a lot of very good recievers out there, and none of them are the continual pain in the butt TO is. He's simply more trouble than he's worth.

It doesn't sound like you've ever been a part of a football team. If you had, you would know that chemistry and the mental part of the game make up 75% of your performance. TO completely destroys that with all the garbage he talks about his teammates. If he would shut his mouth they would be a much better team.

You're missing the point. THAT IS NOT ALL THAT MATTERS.

Football is a team sport and CHEMISTRY is CRUCIAL. Teams with T.O. lack chemistry because of his act.

I have played and I coach so I have been around football enough to know that talent is what drives football. TO spouts off at the mouth, true, but he shows up to work everyday. He plays hard and with passion. Trust me there are at least 100-150 other players that are more of a distractiob because of off the field stuff, some you hear about, most you don't. He is a multi-millionire and will get a new contract from another team in the off-season for a reason, The man plays ball.

thank you for displaying your ignorance

Everyone questioned whether or not Favre was right to call out Walker like he did.

Im sure if a white person brought **** like this up EVERY DAMN YEAR then they would be classified as a jerk as well

So are you blaming T.O. for the eagles not performing up to par this season? I sure could find many reasons other than T.O. as to why they are not performing as well. If anything, take T.O. out and they probably wouldn't even be a .500 team.

What comment did he make about his teamates? I caught some of the interview and all I remember him saying 'negatively' was about management/front office...

Me too.

Isn't it ironic that the main reason he wanted to come to Philly was because of McNabb?

Yes. Yes it is.
