Buy Stock in Kleenex

Donovan might be able to get some of those players he’s so desperate for—the Eagles are about to have a windfall. Well, that’s maybe stretching it a bit, but what it lacks in amount it makes up for in sweet, sweet revenge: T.O. owes us money. That’s right, the man who has loved every quarterback he’s ever played with, except when he didn’t, lost his grievance with the Eagles, who were trying to recover $1.725 million of the $2.3 million signing bonus they paid Owens when he signed a seven-year contract back in 2004. Seems the games he was suspended from during his last, painful season with us cost him $764,704 in pay, and when his lawyer didn’t respond to a letter requesting a return of the signing bonus, the Birds didn’t release his last five paychecks, which totaled $955,880. For those math whizzes out there, that means there was still an outstanding $769,120, which an arbitrator ruled last week Owens had to repay to Philadelphia. Don't feel too bad: he can take it out of his roster bonus (Jerry Jones is a sucker). The man who told reporters that "In my heart, I'm getting the last laugh" before Dallas got Tony Romo’s cute little ass handed to them by the Eagles last month apparently laughed a little too soon.

Guess he’ll have to scale back on sending people to Cabo until that check clears. Don’t worry T.O.; we’ll send you some tissues.
