Owens Out For Season With a Bruised Ego

Good Riddance...

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Terrell Owens was shut down completely: his grievance, his time with the Philadelphia Eagles, his season.

For conduct proven to be a "destructive and continuing threat" to his team, an arbitrator ruled Wednesday that the Eagles were justified in suspending their All-Pro receiver for four games -- and are within their rights to deactivate him for the rest of the year.

The Eagles will now look to trade or release Owens before next March, when he's due a $5 million roster bonus.

Arbitrator Richard Bloch wrote in his 38-page decision that there was "no violation of the labor agreement inherent in the club's decision to pay Mr. Owens, but not to permit him to play or practice due to the nature of his conduct and its destructive and continuing threat to the team."

After the ruling, the Eagles released a one-paragraph statement thanking Bloch for considering the matter and saying Philadelphia is looking forward to "moving on with our preparations for Sunday's game vs. Green Bay and the rest of the 2005 season and will have no further comment on this issue."

I was semi-kidding, but only because I'm in an age bracket that is fairly protected.  Many young officers are being shown the door.  Almost any training course washout, including pilot training, is invited to get out.

Real shame.  Now we are left with the worthless hack McNabb and the Worthless POS Andy Reid.


Thankgod McNabb will be out the season.  Though I do know that dumb **** Reid will put him back in when McMahon carries us to the playoffs.
