I don't think Taylor lost a game check for the ejection, but, if suspended, TO would lose 1/16th of his salary for each game missed.

Some of the sports shows are justifying that as, the players need to get the message, and they are escalating the fines. One show suggested it should be a percentage of the players salary, to be fair. I like that

Yeah I get that, but I'm not sure that will hold up in an appeal.

Well, the sports teams in general need to get with the program, and hit these guys where it's going to hurt. If you really want to stop the NBA type stuff, and other less severe stuff, it's going to have to get much more serious. It may be interesting to see what David Stern does?

I hate TO and honestly it wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit if he had to leave football for "injury reasons" caused by me. I've never seen someone love themselves so much.

Dallas is like an evil empire. A conglomerate of all the players, coaches and fans I hate most in football (even though Eagles fans are worse).

I can't wait until during NFC championship game and Parcels tells Tony Romo that he is his father.

Then Parcels slices off Romo's hand with his light saber. Then Dallas loses the game b/c their qb has no hand.

Perfect ending.

pretty corny to me.

Owens chances of being on the Cowboys next year are 40yes-60no. Hes a loser for saying yes he did it, then to say no.

Taylor did the same exact thing, he lied to Gibbs that he didnt do it. And then that video came out. It was no big deal, and no one talks about ST spitting anymore.

It will cost you, when you "invite" the evil one into your home. It sucks the life out of you. Although.....very entertaining for those not involved

diangeleo hall is overrated as hell,has been since he was at va tech!T.O should have owned up to doing it since he stated he did after the game.but as we all know TO gets what he wants.i think the league's players spoke volumes during the pro bowl voting,TO has more td catches than anybody in the nfc,but he finished way down on the pro bowl voting!

BigSKINBauer · 12-21-2006, 03:31 AM

its sad that the new commish can't put TO down for a game just to get ratings. Its the eagles, with mcnabb, reid, and trotter on the other side and garcia starting

Anyone who thinks that the greatest receiver in the NFL needs to be able to catch a football is crazy. Its all about YAC and making lineman-type catches in the end zone on goal-to-go from the 2.

Aside from that, TO is the perfect Cowboy.

TheMalcolmConnection · 12-21-2006, 02:04 PM

Yeah, he's a total me-first asshole.
