TO won't be back - confirmation

[Jeff1220]

He basically said so in an interview w/Freddie Mitchell on a Philly ESPN radio station....

If I could, would I like to play in Philly? Who knows," Owens said. "I'm just focusing on my last year here in Buffalo . . . these last four games.

Don't let the conjecture of his previous statements fool you. He obviously won't be back.

Not exactly a revelation. Highy doubtful any new coach would want him.

Re: TO won't be back - confirmation

i dont blame him. im still in shock that Evans signed an extension.

Re: TO won't be back - confirmation

although he called Mitchell's suggestion that he could be an Eagle next year "a little far-fetched."

You're in shock that a #2 receiver agreed to a contract making him the second highest paid receiver in the NFL?

A player sucking up to a home town sports station? I'm shocked. "Philly fans are awesome! (slobber, slobber)"

The point is that a few days ago, TO clearly said he could be a Bill next season. However, here, he shows that he's clearly eliminated that possibility from the picture.

I wouldn't say "clearly eliminated". He just says what people want to hear.

No im shocked he wants to play for a team who hasnt had a steady QB, Oline or coach since hes been here. It has to be frustrating as hell to be a WR on this team

Re: TO won't be back - confirmation

and a team who hasnt sniffed the playoffs

He must be talking about how much louder they booo at their own players.

Re: TO won't be back - confirmation

Well it is his last year in Buffalo no?? Is he saying theres no chance I resign here next year? NO. All he says is he has to play out the rest of his contract basically. Man some people look to far into some stuff

when he was in Philly they were almost unbeatable.

he was describe, not by himself but sports broadcasters as "the closest thing to unstoppable that has been seen at wr"

i mean come on. if a team is headed to the super bowl, of course the fans are wilder.

if we were 8-5 right now he'd be singing the Shout song on the radio, no doubt about it.

That is not a "confirmation."
