It is unbelievable that Terrell Owens has found somebody to side with him.  However, it is believable that Jesse Jackson is the person.  The loud, rude, inconsiderate, and selfish wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles was suspended by the team last week for the rest of the year.  TO has continued to make comments detrimental to the team by criticizing starting quarterback Donovan McNabb, publically complaining about his contract, and arguing with head coach Andy Reid.  Two years after coming to the Eagles, and it already looks as if he won't be playing for them ever again. 

TO's selfishness has caused a huge rift between himself and the city.  In a poll, 90% of the city agrees with the suspension and would like to see him traded after this year.  The actions taken by the Eagles have caused Rev. Jesse Jackson to publically take TO's side.  He says that TO could have handled the previous situations better, but that Philadelphia shoud waive him so TO can be picked up by another team, and that his actions should not have warrented suspension in the first place.  Among others who have sided with TO were RALPH NADER!  Owens did apologize, but it was too late and seemed insincere.  He has continued to affect the team and distract them the past two years with his idiotic acts.  He has even put his house up for sale.  I say, CUT OWENS out of the NFL for good.
