Eagles Sue T. Owens For Unreturned Bonus Money
The Philadelphia Eagles are suing wide receiver Terrell Owens for bonus money not repaid to them, according to several reports.
Owens, now with the Dallas Cowboys, lost an arbitration ruling requiring him to repay the Eagles $1.7 million in bonus money based on his actions in 2005, when the Eagles suspended him for four games without pay for conduct detrimental to the team and then deactivated him for the final five games of the season. They later released him and he signed with the Cowboys.
The Eagles withheld game checks for part of the money but Owens still owes the team $769,117, according to the lawsuit filed Monday in U.S. District Court.

Jerry Jones harbors criminals and has not won a playoff game in 10 years but Daniel Snyder is the one who gets the backlash for being meddlesome and a football rube. Mr. Maske, maybe you could shed some light on Jones vs Snyder - The Image vs The Reality. HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!

Maybe the commish can suspend the deadbeat until he pays his bills.
18-1 means you are done Pats.
