Hidden: Eagles Complain Cowboys Tampered With T.O. : I'm starting to agree with T.O. The Eagles don't have any class. They kick the guy off the team, but refuse to release him and now they want to complain that Jerry Jones mentioned in an interview that he might be willing to grab him in the offseason? I think they're really trying to ruin the T.O.'s life because he doesn't like Donovan McNabb. I don't think they want him to play anywhere - ever. Is McNabb that great? I don't think so...

Are you kidding! You should change your handle to: tony_out of touch. What Jerry Jones did is called tampering and it is against the CBA as well as NFL rules of ownership. I hope they fine the crap out of Jones. T.O. is getting his just rewards and I believe the Eagles have handled the T.O. situation as well as possible given T.O.'s stated goal of disrupting the team as much as possible. Screw T.O. Donavan Mcnabb has more class in his little finger then T.O. has in his entire body. Get real! P.S. Go Bears

The Eagles have had to deal with this crap since before training camp, and now people think they (his employer) need to coddle him by sending him to help out another team, especially the Cowboys, for God's sake!! It amazes me how much further we drift away each and every day from the idea of "team" when talking about pro sports. All we're really dealing with more and more is a bunch of private contractors (players) attempting to co-exist on the same field. The idea the Eagles don't have the right to handle this situation any way they choose is a perfect example of how truly hard it must be to coach some of these malcontents.

So, TO is a piece of crap, but the statement Jerry Jones made was totally ambiguous to whether or not he was talking about TO, he just said that that he had a propensity towards recovering shunned players, and its true. He never even said TO's name. there has to be limits to what counts as tampering.

Further, don't the Eagles know that by doing this there is even more TO-related news. I thought they wanted to put this behind them.

I think T.O. needs to G.O. to the Bears. Have him room with Olin Kreutz. If Kreutz is bad enough to break the jaw of 6'7" 320 lb. tackle Fred Miller, TO's little punk mouth shouldn't pose much of a problem. 2 advantages... 1. T.O. gets put in his place 2. It is hard to talk crap with your jaw wired shut. Go Falcons
