The Facts:
Andy Reid said that he met privately for a few minutes with reciever Terrell Owens on Wednesday before the team's morning practice. Reid considered it a "good" meeting. When asked if Owens said all of the right things in the meeting, Reid just said that he was out on the practice field. "We're going to take it day-by-day and see how things go," Reid said. "It was good to see him back out there. He did a nice job and worked hard."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The coach went on to say he intended to keep the situation "in-house." It'll be interesting to see if Owens takes a similar approach. In the meantime, it's safe to assume we haven't heard the last of this one.
Kirk Bouyelas' View:
The Eagles are doing and saying all the right things here. In essence, they are building a short pier for T.O. to take a long walk on. Their words and actions have been professional; while Owens and Rosenhaus have acted like a couple of 2-year olds at a whiners convention. There is no denying that the Eagles desperately need to have Owens on the field to win - but at what cost? While I believe that Andy Reid will continue to be patient, he absolutely refuses to adopt a win at all costs attitude. So unless T.O. can temper his actions, he will not be playing this year. That could be disastrous for both the Eagles and fantasy owners alike.
