TO just posted this on his Twitter...
How do u justify a 78 million dollar contract w/this type of performance?

You're like a headline writer. An inflammatory title that doesn't match the body at all. It's not a "shot" it's a totally legitimate question.
By the way, remember when we could have had TO for NOTHING? He's on pace for 1,400 yards and 12 TD's. Yup, we don't have any room for him.

Of course its a shot by TO. He clearly has a grudge against McNabb and couldn't wait to get a dig in on McNabb. I don't like the contract extension either, but TO, on the 2-7 Bengals, should keep his mouth shut. And you can't judge a contact on one bad loss, especially one that was an all-around team effort.
Honestly, do you really think that TO meant that as a "legitimate question"?

My first thought when I read BO's, I mean TO's, comment was, "jealous"

Definitely a shot. TO is having a good year, but his team is 2-7 so he isn't helping his team win. As Raheem Morris says: Stats are for losers.

TO is and has always been a better player than McNabb. I am sure it bothers TO that mcnabb gets 5 years 78 million TO gets 1 year 2 million. And McNabb was bad tonight but the Defense has been bad a lot this year but proved tonight they are all time NFL bad.

TO is jealous, because McNabb the person is loved, while everybody thinks TO is a douchebag. He needs to worry about his own crappy team, not our crappy team.

I don't know what you guys mean. You act as though TO is some petty prima donna with an agenda against McNabb, because Donny's always carried himself with class and has been rewarded for his accomplishments due to the fact that teams don't have to weigh how much of a jack a$$ he is against his talent.
TO's good, without a doubt, but there's a reason why he had such a hard time getting picked up this offseason and isn't making the money he wants to. TO may be producing for his 2-7 squad, but just like its not his fault they're 2-7, it ain't McNabb's fault we got housed tonight.
To suggest that was anything but a dig at Donovan is simply not dealing in reality.

No, it's a shot. And also a good point . . . but a shot nonetheless.

SORRY - WRONG AGAIN- this was a shot! not a classy move IMO
terrible game on our part nonetheless - TO is a great EX WR - he should leave it alone

Class means nothing except to middle aged fans with Brunell jerseys in their closets. Its 2010, just win games.

The Bengals haven't won anything with TO though. They are 2-7. His play and lack of effort helped them lose to the game to the Colts this weekend.

Canes, I understand the Bungles suck. Would you not trade any of our receivers right now for TO? To me it's a no brainer I would.

No, I wouldn't trade any of our receivers for TO. The guy is a classless act all the way. If he's right, even more the reason not to take another shot at McNabb. They haven't been teammates for years and he's still attacking him. And you want him on our team? As if we don't have enough problems already

I was asking Canes not you Kazoo... lol, I'm kidding, sorta.
Do you think that TO's comment was a classless act?
Let me put it this way, when all the crap went down in Philly with TO and DM guess who got painted as the bad guy "the cancer", that would be TO. It has since followed him, he never did anything classless in Dallas, or in Buffalo. Now that he is with the Bengals, top ten in the league in TD's.... He is grossly underpaid because everyone thinks he is a cancer, yet all he does is put up numbers.
I would rather have a Twitter posting legit threat at WR than a butterfingered over the hill class act.
Get serious and wake up it's 2010.

I actually don't think that I would. Now I know that our receivers suck, but just causes problems than he solves. The game against the Colts is a perfect example. Not trying on a play and that results in a pic. Late in the game not hustling back to the huddle and letting precious time burn off the clock. Sure he has talent but he causes problems and drama everywhere he goes. Instead of running his mouth now he causes controversy via Twitter.

This coming from a guy that justified his Buffalo signing by having the worst year of his entire career.
TO is being the same tool he's always been. He's tweeting from his 2-7 hole in Cincy, which is reason enough to ignore him. Add the fact that the Bengals were 1 of 1 teams that wanted him and it's easy to see why he's talking.

Then sorta PM him, don't put it on a public forum

Um...are you aware of the history of his ripping McNabb in the media? The guy's practically a stalker at this point. But regardless, you don't rip teammates, including past ones, in the media. Seriously, I needed to tell you this?

^^^ You really don't need to tell me anything. I am concluding that you are content with a talentless team as long as they are classy.
Obviously I understand that it is not ok to rip teammates to the media. Thanks for thinking so highly of me though, I appreciate it buddy.

So my choices are that I have to support TO or I'm willing to lose to be classy? I will never get why some people can think only in polar extremes. But whatever, "conclude" what you like

No, he's been seen as acancer everywhere he's been. It started in San Francisco. When the whole "trade" to the Smeagols happened, there were plenty of questions about how long it would be until he wore out his welcome. He's always been classless and a cancer. Any team that signs him has to weigh that against his production, which is why he has such a hard time finding a job these days. Even the Cowpies thought he he was too classless for their team.

Who asked these questions in San Fran? Or are you quoting media speculation? Who said he was a cancer and classless in Dallas? Or are we again speculating? Look, it's about the numbers pure and simple. Like him or hate him he produces everywhere he goes.
I am not saying TO is needed for our long term goals, however as a "right now" sure, give someone to Donovan to throw to.
The Skins have so much drama right now T.O. would have taken a back seat no matter what. Besides, you have to admit it, there would have been some funny post game comments Monday night instead of the team hiding in a hole and nobody shouldering the blame.
