Supposedly from the owner all the way down to the fans everyone was upset that he wore the jersey. However instead of the owner or the HC taking the issue by the horns they let it fester in the locker room with teamates making comments to T.O. until he and Douglas started fighting.
I personally can see and over look the Philli issue. How would you fans feel if Art Monk was not acknowledged for his achievements? How about Doug Williams? or any other of the players who have their name in the ring of fire?
