I don't see what's wrong about getting a raise. How he went about it was terrible, but the 2004 Eagles were dominant with McNabb and TO.
I think TO was probably worst with the Cowboys, but they were also pretty dysfunctional.
I can tell you two other players that have done worst (similar) things than TO:
- Haynesworth's saga with the Redskins
- R. Moss giving up at the end of his time in Minny and the whole time he was with the Raiders
I don't think anyone will defend what TO did, but I just don't think those actions are terrible enough to keep him out of the HOF.
