TO and RayRay together...Yup I see no problems


I his never-ending quest to destroy every team he plays for TO is pleading with Jerry Jones to overpay and bring Ray Lewis to the Cowboys.
According to the Dallas Cowboys blog;

"he's (TO) reaching out to free agent linebacker and Baltimore Raven icon Ray Lewis.
In the past, Owens told me he's been contact with Lewis, who expressed an interest in playing for the Cowboys. This off-season, Owens reached out to Jerry Jones to make a sales pitch if you will for Lewis to join Dallas.
And Deion Sanders, a close friend of Lewis and Owens, has also spoken to Jones about the linebacker."


Of course Lewis, who is looking for one last payday sees no problems having TO as a teammate or playing in Big D.

“I can definitely play with T.O.,” Lewis said. “I think T.O. is a great, great person. I just love him. I love his work ethic. I love everything about him. So, playing with T.O. is easy.”

“I don’t see all of that outside stuff that they’re talking about what goes on in Dallas,” Lewis said. “I see Dallas as a great opportunity. It’s always been America’s Team. It’s just a great place to play football.”


Those three should be listened to because all three guys are looking out for the best interests of the Cowboys. None have a personal agenda. TO isn't trying to save his job and his payday, Lewis isn't looking to get $7 or $8 million for a couple more years and Deion isn't trying to prove that he still matters now that he's on NFLN instead of CBS. Nope, no personal agendas.
If I'm Jerry Jones I know that I'm listening to the likes of TO and Deion, if there is one thing both of those players proved throughout their careers it's that they are team guys. It's team 1st, 2nd and 3rd with those two, they live the slogan; "There in no I in team", they will do whatever they can to help the team win. Just think of how good Deion was in run support, think of all the times that TO run blocks down the field to help a running back get a few extra yards, or the tough catches that TO makes, always sacrificing his body to make a catch.
Ray will have no trouble with a guy who takes plays off and then runs his mouth, no trouble at all. But if RayRay is just there for a payday he may ignore all that and just collect his check, he's made plenty of money over his career.
Now that I've thought about it, the decision is a great one, if you are an Eagles, Giants or Redskins fan, they get to see the trainwreck twice a year.
Who doesn't love a good trainwreck?

the rumors of ray ray going to big d, or anywhere else for that matter, are bogus.

so where all this came from & others.......call it like an eagles wide out rumor......that's all it is, rumor.

I agree. RayRay is using it to get his money out of Baltimore and TO is doing it to prove he's not a selfish little POS.
