Come on people, we have all seen the Eagles' Terrell Owens highlights from Friday NFL Preseason Game versus the Cincinnati Bengals. After five catches for 131 yards, including a 64 yard TD from QB Donovan McNabb, who still wants TO out of Philly?

Everybody has their own personal kryptonite. Some individuals have to spend every dollar in their wallet, while others have enormous egos, and that may be TO's main problem. However on the football field his ego makes him one of the top three receivers in the NFL, year after year, in my opinion. People may not agree with Owens's tactics in attempting to get a new contract from the Eagles' organization, but on the football he is a legend. Philadelphia needs him the entire season, otherwise QB Donovan McNabb and Coach Andy Reid will be watching the NFL Playoffs at home this year, instead of participating in it.

TO will again receive respect from the Philly fans as soon as he produces in the regular season. Owens puts people in the stands, and makes ESPN Sportscenter highlights. Bottom line, TO brings revenue to your city, and you want him to leave why?
