Donovan McNabb Relates to Giants’ Issues
Donovan McNabb says he understands how difficult it is to make it back to the Super Bowl after playing in one, according to Ohm Youngmisuk of the New York Daily News. After McNabb led the Eagles to the Super Bowl in 2005, Youngmisuk reminds us of how McNabb watched Terrell Owens, another Drew Rosenhaus client, shred the Eagles with his contract demands and ego. We all know the story. T.O. did just about everything wrong until he eventually got suspended by Andy Reid. The Giants have their own problems with Plaxico Burress and Jeremy Shockey. Donovan had this to say about the Giants…
It is something that won’t die down depending on how everyone handles it. I don’t know if it will tear them apart. They have enough guys in the locker room that they won’t have to worry about it. But when people start taking sides, that is when it becomes a problem. That was definitely a major problem with what happened to us.
A lot of people learned from my situation and know how to handle it differently. I tried to do the right things. When it comes to business situations, it’s tough. I think the Giants will try to keep it low-key and keep it under wraps. I am anxious to see how it all plays out.
Plax is one of the top wide receivers in the NFL. He wants to be paid and all these wide receivers are getting new contracts.
As usual, McNabb fielded the questions with class so it’s no wonder that the Eagles kept him and let Owens walk. Donovan already went to three NFC Championship games without T.O. I can only hope that Big Blue will own the division for three more years.
