T.O.'s unfamous return to Lincoln Financial Field
It was an unpleasant return for T.O.
to his former home field.
Terrell Owens, the former star for
the Philadelphia Eagles, is now playing for the Dallas Cowboys, and last
Sunday was his first visit in almost a year to the Lincoln Financial Field
in Philly.
While T.O. was just warming up and
catching some passes in the field before the game, the Eagles fans were
just starting the booing outside in the parking lot, they promised him
more insults than any other athlete had ever heard before.
Matt Flinchbaugh of Camp Hill, Pa.
arrived in his vehicle, which had detail offensive comments about the Cowboys
and Owens.
"The boos are going to be larger
and louder than anybody else ever felt, his T.O. jersey serving as an unofficial
doormat. "It's the Super Bowl for us." Flinchbaugh said.
Flinchbaugh said Eagles fans can't
forgive the way Owens fractured the team last season, "He didn't leave
on bitter terms. He left on hatred terms," he said.
Bonnie Grant, an Eagles spokesman
said that security was increased for the game and that any fan caught up
throwing anything to the field, will be immediately ejected from the stairs
and might face a possible revocation of his season tickets.
Even there was a sign that read "One
down, one to go" with a photo of Owens and another of former Cowboys receiver
Michael Irvin, who had to leave the field after suffering a neck injury
in a game against the Eagles in 1999.
Surely Eagles fans were not happy
with the presence of Owens in their home field, but the now Cowboys wide
receiver is looking forward to be accepted by the fans for the Dallas team.
