Limbaugh Wants to Help Owens, McNabb Settle Dispute
This time, Rush Limbaugh wants to help Donovan McNabb, not criticize him.

Limbaugh, who once said the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback succeed, wants to help McNabb and wide receiver Terrell Owens settle their differences on his radio show.

"I am here to offer and to assist. I can," Limbaugh said on his nationally syndicated radio show Friday, according to a transcript on his Web site. "I could bring these two guys together. I've been there, folks, and I could do this, and I'm serious in my desire to do it."

Owens has been unhappy with the Eagles over his contract and took some of his frustration out at McNabb, calling the quarterback a hypocrite and saying the two of them could not be successful together.

McNabb insisted he wasn't stung by the criticism, laughing off the outrageous receiver's remarks before turning serious and telling Owens to "keep my name out of your mouth."

:rofl:

I didn't know the pimple-assed pig-boy had a sense of humor.

I wish they'd both go on his show and make him look like a fool. Wouldn't be hard. TO's a showboat, but he's a sharp guy, and McNabb is pure class.

On edit: For starters, TO could ask idiot if he should speak up so the drug addict could hear him.

:rofl:

What a joke. Mr. Scumbag offering to give advice to ANYONE.

Pigboy has indeed "been there"!

I wonder how he'll do it this time?

A flogging or a lynching?

4. They'd strangle Pigboy
Their feud has largely been cooked up by the team owners, who are trying to "crack down" on the players' union. They figure if they can treat T.O. and McNabb like children, they can do it to anybody.

They've been messing with both T.O. and McNabb since each of them joined the Eagles. And Philadelphia hasn't won a Superbowl -- why?

5. The feud was started by T.O. and his agent and no one else
I am just waiting for the day when he wakes up and realizes what a fool he is making of himself in the media.

7. They've been on him a lot longer than form the salary dispute
Last year, one of the owners said that T.O. "needed to behave himself" after some minor thing. They've repeated that several times. The implication is that T.O. is a child, and that they're Big Daddy.

I suppose you could say that T.O. is making a fool of himself, though. After all, everybody who backsases the boss gets the same kind of reaction. And in Philly, a lot of people side with the boss.
