Those of us in Philly really love to rehash the McNabb vs. T.O. argument, even four years later. It happens on the radio about ten times a day, and it even happened over dinner with my wife's relatives last night. But of all the horrible things Terrell Owens did- from insulting his own quarterback to pushups in the driveway to showing up in fatigues- at least he never shot himself in the leg, tried to cover up the crime, or surrendered to police on weapons charges.
But hey, Owens also never caught the winning touchdown in the Super Bowl either, which Plaxico Burress has done. I have a feeling he won't do it again this year, though.
