• Roger Clemens Linked to John Daly’s Ex, Paulette Dean Daly
  

That’s what the Philadelphia Eagles have been screaming to Terrell Owens and now they have taken the matter to the U.S. District Court.

Owens lost in arbitration earlier this year, where he was ordered to repay $1.7 million in bonus money the team paid him during the 2004 and 2005 seasons. Apparently Owens still has about $770,000 to repay or to be exact, $769,117.

Remember a while back Owens trademarked the phrase, “I Love Me Some Me”? Well, the Eagles want some of you too Owens. All $770,000 of you. I don’t see what the hold up is. You should have some money left over from the 3-year, $25 million contract you signed with the Dallas Cowboys.

After watching this video this morning, I can see why I have never seen it before. It’s dreadful.

I don’t know how any team could not learn from the Chicago Bears and their Super Bowl Shuffle, but apparently the Philadelphia Eagles didn’t learn a thing when they decided to go through with their own music video in 1988.

Check out Jerome Brown dressed up in red leather. He looks like an oversized Michael Jackson from the Thriller video.

Apparently there are other more important things on Tony Romo’s mind than the New York Giants next weekend.

That other “thing” happens to be Jessica Simpson, who Romo took to Los Cabos, Mexico last week for a little vacation before his first playoff game this Sunday. But the dimpled-duo weren’t alone as they were joined by her parents who always seem to be around when she’s a significant other, and some of Romo’s teammates.

Being a Philadelphia Eagles fan, I could careless about what extra curricular activities Tony Romo wants to involve himself in during the playoffs, but after last year’s botched field goal hold, you’d think that he’d want to lock himself in his house and think about nothing but football.

We all know that Terrell Owens is in love with himself.

Who could forget the comical, shirtless T.O. doing sit-ups in his driveway giving interviews for reporters when he was banned from training camp by the Philadelphia Eagles. The man has never shied away from the reporters and deflected attention. He loves it all, himself and now he wants to have that in writing.

Owens has apparently filed an application to trademark the phrase ” I love me some me” to use on restaurants, cups, clothing and whatever else he plans on branding the phrase. Maybe he’ll tattoo it across his chest for his next sit-up interview.

I love me some me? Kind of has a nice ring to it.

After Sunday’s embarrassing loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in front of his new girlfriend Jessica Simpson,  I figured, why let the embarrassment stop there for Tony Romo.

After checking out SI’s Extra Mustard this morning, I had to post this video of Romo doing his own rendition of Journey’s, “Don’t Stop Believin.’”

Maybe the singing should be left to Simpson and Romo should stop soaking up his fame during the late nights and focus on football.

Actually, scratch that.

Being an Eagles fan, I want Romo out all night so he throws three interceptions every weekend.
