When love turns to hate
Ravens fans can identify with the We-Hate-T.O. club because of the obvious -- Terrell Owens snubbed Baltimore a few years back in order to be with his then-pal Donovan McNabb in Philadelphia. But no one has more animosity for Owens these days than those spurned Eagles fans, who wrote the book on grudges.
There are some great games this weekend besides the Super Powers battle between New England and Indianapolis, among them Baltimore-Pittsburgh. And, in Philly, Cowboys-Eagles. And that means another return of T.O. to the City of Brotherly Love. Here's a great quote from Philadelphia cornerback Lito Sheppard about the Eagles' fans' intense feelings for the Dallas receiver.
"I think that relationship is kind of like when you have a girlfriend you used to love in the past, maybe high school," Lito Sheppard told sports writer Ashley Fox, "and you loved her so much, but you hate her so bad now. But you can't stop talking about it."
Hmm, that Sheppard is a real student of human nature.
