I'm guessing the team most likely crazy enough to get TO is the Raiders...but, I also stand by my comments on how a contender just may get him for the rest of the season.
TO will play hard for that contender to try and "prove" that he's a good team player and kinda shove it to the Eagles. But, watch out next season cuz he'll say his contract sucks and that his QB no good...

Now for something completely different:
These are two pretty fugly NFL cheerleaders. 
Police in Tampa, Florida, say two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders are facing charges stemming from a fight in a nightclub restroom.
Renee Thomas and fellow TopCat Angela Keathley were both arrested after Saturday night's incident. Thomas initially gave police the driver's license of another cheerleader who didn't make
the trip.
A police spokeswoman says Thomas will be charged with one count of battery for punching a woman in the face, and with giving a false name, causing harm to another.
The spokeswoman says the Florida Attorney General's office upgraded the false-name charge to a a third-degree felony because of its impact on the third cheerleader, who says she was at a wedding in South Carolina.
Witnesses say the two cheerleaders were engaged in sexual activity in a bathroom stall, and customers got angry because they stayed in the stall. Arguing escalated after they came out of the stall and a third woman was punched in the face.

Everybody that says the Pats are down defensively but what about the offense. The offense last night didn't pick up till late in the 3rd quarter. I'm glad the Pats LUCK have run out.

T.O. apologizes
Owens says sorry to Eagles, McNabb and fans
MOORESTOWN, N.J. (AP) -- A contrite Terrell Owens, hoping to overturn his dismissal from the Philadelphia Eagles, on Tuesday apologized to coach Andy Reid, quarterback Donovan McNabb, the team's owner and president, and fans.
"I fight for what I think is right. In doing so, I alienated a lot of my fans and my teammates," Owens said, reading a statement outside his house.
His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said Owens was making a public apology in hopes of returning to the Eagles immediately.
Owens on Monday was told by the team not to return this season. The decision resulted from "a large number of situations that accumulated over a long period of time, during which Terrell had been warned repeatedly about the consequences of his actions," Reid said.
The All-Pro wide receiver didn't play in Sunday night's 17-10 loss at Washington, and will remain suspended for three more games without pay. After that, the Eagles plan to deactivate him for the rest of the season.
He was suspended Saturday, two days after he said the Eagles showed "a lack of class" for not publicly recognizing his 100th career touchdown catch in a game on Oct. 23. In the same interview with ESPN.com on Thursday, Owens said the Eagles would be better off with Green Bay's Brett Favre at quarterback instead of McNabb.
Owens apologized specifically to Reid, McNabb, Eagles president Joe Banner, owner Jeffrey Lurie and to fans.
To McNabb, Owens said, "I apologize to him for any comments that may have been negative."
McNabb, who feuded with Owens throughout the summer, was a constant target of his criticism. He finally took a stand in the matter Sunday, saying the team might be "better off" without Owens.
Asked to elaborate on how the team could be better off without its top receiver, McNabb emphasized the remaining players are united with the same goal of winning.
Rookie Reggie Brown filled in for Owens against Washington and caught five passes for 94 yards, including a 56-yard TD reception. But the Eagles' offense continued to struggle and couldn't score the tying touchdown with three shots from the Redskins 7 in the final minutes.
The Eagles are 4-4 this season, a steep drop from last season's Super Bowl run.
Owens' relationship with the Eagles took a drastic turn after he fired longtime agent David Joseph, hired Rosenhaus and demanded a new contract just one season into the seven-year, $48.97 million deal he signed when he came to Philadelphia in March 2004.
Owens clashed with management this summer and earned a one-week exile from training camp after a heated dispute with Reid that followed a shouting match with offensive coordinator Brad Childress.
Owens forced a trade to the Eagles last year after eight seasons with the 49ers and invigorated the offense with his superior skills. He had 77 catches for 1,200 yards and 14 TDs in 14 games.
Soon after Philadelphia lost to the Patriots in the Super Bowl, Owens took his first shot at McNabb, suggesting the five-time Pro Bowl quarterback was tired in the fourth quarter of the loss.
McNabb responded harshly and the two didn't speak for a prolonged period in training camp. They eventually reconciled their relationship and performed well together on the field -- Owens has 47 catches for 763 yards and six TDs this season.
However, Owens continued to throw verbal jabs at McNabb.

T.O. apologizes, but Eagles won't take him back
Terrell Owens wants to return to the Eagles, but the team won't have him.
A contrite Owens, hoping to overturn his dismissal from the Philadelphia Eagles, on Tuesday apologized to coach Andy Reid, quarterback Donovan McNabb, the team's owner and president, and fans.
However, Eagles officials who watched the news conference told ESPN's Sal Paolantonio that the team will not take Owens back.
His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said Owens was making a public apology in hopes of returning to the Eagles immediately.
"We hope he plays again for the Philadelphia Eagles," Rosenhaus said.
"I fight for what I think is right. In doing so, I alienated a lot of my fans and my teammates," Owens said, reading a statement outside his house in Moorestown, N.J., outside Philadelphia.
"It really hurts me not to be a part of this team anymore," Owens said.
Rosenhaus said Owens wants to return to the Eagles "ASAP."
Owens on Monday was told by the team not to return this season. The decision resulted from "a large number of situations that accumulated over a long period of time, during which Terrell had been warned repeatedly about the consequences of his actions," Reid said.

T.O. is a prick and deserves all of the shit he's eating right now.
Unfortunately I'm sure 4-5 teams will be making him offers as soon as they can. The guy can play; he's just a total cancer in the locker room.

This just in: Part of the fine imposed upon Terrell Owens to go to local Home Owners Association to pay for resodding his lawn.
It's hard to believe that this clown is a millionaire but has a lawn that looks like this. What, he can't use $3 or $4k to resod that dawn pit?

This TO Appology was a big circus done in attempt to re-coup the money that would;ve been paid had he stayed on and also to save face for the next team.
It's very disappoting and stupid to the eagles fans but he had to be cut, no other choice, too much unnecessary negative drama. TO seems like a puppet without his own thoughts and Drew is responsible for this mess.
I am burned out, no more TO, good bye.

It's almost working out for Rosenhaus, though.. The only way he was making any money off of TO was for TO to get released and sign a new contract.
Also, the Eagles are known for not cutting players in the middle their contract, so maybe they would've retained him if TO kept his behavior in check. Then Rosenhaus definitely would've received nothing.

I'm happy T.O is gone and I hope no one picks him up without some kind of morals clause in his contract.
Priest Holmes is a great back but with his injury problems its probaby good that he retires. I heard Wayne Chrebet might retire also after suffering his 9th concussion.
