Owens has pretty much guaranteed that he will get nothing from the Eagles. I bet they are now in "smack-down" mode. However they play it, the Eagles' FO will make sure that nobody thinks they can "pull an Owens" and get what
they want - or even a semblance of what they want. Does he want out? Well then - we aint gonna cut him. Does he want more money? Yeah right!
Nada, zip, nothing. The Eagles will do nothing that would allow Owens, in any way, to claim a small victory.

Well said and I agree with a lot of what you said, but I think Philly still will cut it's losses. If they keep him at this point the FO and team invite tons of scrutiny when or if he hit's the field. Philly fans are ruthless!
