I'm from Philly also. All my family is still there. I used to LOVE T.O. and I'm still trying to, but it's so hard. Half of me doesn't feel sorry for him one bit, the other half sees his point. He does deserve more money. The Eagles would have screwed him if he got seriously injured in a second. They had him sign a secret contract releasing them from their obligations, before allowing him to play in the Super Bowl, in case he was injured permanently. What gives the owners the right to screw the players? Yes he should be grateful for the money, because it is alot, but no one can deny the fact that he does deserve more.
Besides it's not like he's the first player to do this. The media's making it out to be like he's the only one, therefore making him look like a greedy @sshole to those who don't know any better.
I do agree that his agent is a creep though. I think half the problem is him. I always tell my husband that Drew Rosenwhatever looks like he works for the devil with his greased back hair and expensive sunglasses.
