Perhaps we can all disabuse ourselves of the notion that Donovan McNabb is a great quarterback. He's overrated and relies on a stout defense to overcome his many errors. If you don't buy the hype and just watch him play, he's merely competent.
And isn't it heart-rending that the Iggles make the Super Bowl without TO, then when he gets back (and, admittedly, plays a great game), they lose. My heart goes out to him. He's truly a class act and a team player all around.
UPDATE: Apparently the stark-naked sarcasm of calling TO anything remotely like a team player was lost on some people. So, for those people, I say this to assure you: I could not be happier that things happened as they did with regard to TO. He was supposed to be what got them a Super Bowl win. Well, they got to the Super Bowl without him, mostly because the NFC pretty much stank, and then when Terrell "it's-all-about-me" Owens comes back, they lose, and I didn't see him doing the first thing to get the team into gear when they were down by 10 points with a few minutes to go and the great quarterback McNabb was lollygagging around like it was the 3rd quarter. That's what I hoped would happen - he would be exposed as the overhyped, self-absorbed not-quite-superstar he actually is.
Of course, Joe Buck and the rest of the Fox announcing crew would never admit that. That'd be racist or something.
