Eagles say they had deal for TO first

[lazydaze]

PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia Eagles thought they had Terrell Owens for themselves. According to phillyBurbs.com, the Web site for a chain of three suburban Philadelphia newspapers, the Eagles agreed to a deal in principle to acquire the superstar receiver Thursday, only to have the 49ers turn the tables by sealing a deal with the Ravens instead.

oh well. there's nothing that can be done about it now. TO says he's gonna fight it. how, TO? it's not up to you.

plus, a report that i read says the eagles offered a 5th rounder and James Thrash. i'd rather have a 2nd rounder.

"In principle" just means you weren't smart enough to do the deal "in writing".

Too bad!

A deal in principle doesn't mean squat....

Too bad...

This sounds like a ploy from the Walt GM Manual.

There are principles in professional sports? Get outta town.

if they get the chance, do you think the philly fans would boo TO?

Only if he gets taken off on a stretcher.

Otherwise they will just throw shit at him straight out of their junkyard/front lawn.

The Eagles can think whatever they want. Until a deal is approved by the league, it's not a done-deal. The Ravens very obviously offered the 49ers a better return.

i thought the problem was that they agreed in principle...with his agent....it never got to the niners

Anyone see the interview with TO on SC?

He doesnt think he got a fair trade and he isnt happy with the trade.

Biggest baby I have ever seen.

Its a joke. The man is so fucking stupid, that he still has his same agent, the one that forgot the deadline to file for FA!!!!

I hope Ray Lewis stabs TO in a street somewhere.

TO is threatening to sue the NFLPA due to the fact he thinks he should have been a free agent all along.

You cant make that shit up, folks!

I'm watching it right now...

Too bad, TO: you fucked up and that's that...you have no right in the matter...

Andrea Kramer is clueless.

Why didnt she call out his agent?
