will we ever win?

Owens saga will drag out even longer

The hearing has now been rescheduled for the Ides of March but it doesn't say why in the article. The whole case is kind of funny when you think about it. The players union was responsible for sending Owens and his agent the info about the new free agent filing deadline which they might not have done, who knows, and now they're the ones filing to get Owens back his free agent status. Call me crazy but I predict Owens loses his case.

So when they officially lose out on Owens the Eagles and their great history of pickin' 'em can still rely on the draft to pay dividends. Because the Eagles lost free agents like Hugh Douglas, Shawn Barber and Brian Mitchell last year, the team will receive compensatory picks for April's draft. Those picks will be announced just prior to April 24. The next Jerry Rice is just lurking at the 967th spot in the draft, I can feel it!
