TO has left the Eagles training camp after words exchanged with Reid
BETHLEHEM, Pa. -- Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Terrell Owens exchanged words with head coach Andy Reid at a team meeting Wednesday and was asked to leave, according to news reports

Owens then got his belongings and cleared out of Eagles training camp at Lehigh University, according to two television reports. He was expected to return to his home in New Jersey, ESPN's Sal Paolantonio reports.

Earlier Wednesday, he had missed practice for the fifth time in six days because of a left groin injury.

Owens worked out with the team's assistant trainer for about 20 minutes on a separate playing field from his teammates, catching balls from a machine and doing some light running. He did not speak to reporters or acknowledge the fans who chanted his name.

1. damn.... I expected the Patriots eat the AFC again....
but I was hoping they'd get a halfway decent challenge in the Super Bowl. Oh well, a ring's a ring....

2. It's gotten to the point
where I don't care what the hell TO does. If he was never heard from again, on the football field, what difference would it make? He is certainly acting out the role of the self centered, immature, spoiled athlete. He's been bitching about a contract that pays him 7 million a year. If he doesn't like it, talk to ownership privately about it. He gets no sympathy from me and I certainly can't empathize with his situation..... a great big fat WHO CARES? About TO that is. I still like watching football. :)

4. No offense to Eagles fans. Honest. I'm serious.
But I would not want to have Terrell Owens on my team.

5. As an Eagles fan I am not offended
Release the bastard, or trade him, I don't care which. I don't want him ruining the team. We became a top team without him and will continue to be one without him, whether we get to the Super Bowl and win it this year or not.
