FTT's Gifts To Philadelphia Sports Fans

From the Associated Press...

Terrell Owens will get his $3 million roster bonus from the Dallas Cowboys even though, like several other starters, he hasn't been practicing with the team.

All we can say is that when this is your bobblehead...

and you hit a walk-off homer anyway, you're aces in our book. And we admire your commitment to shaving your legs.

Update - Jose "Joe Table" Mesa got the axe in Detroit, too. Hmm, with Gordon and Myers hurt, could the Phillies bring him back... and the day was going so well, too. Such is life for Philly Fan...
