Three things:
1) We didn’t hate T.O. until after he completely flaked out.
2) Even then, some people blamed [the Eagles] [Andy Reid] [Donovan McNabb]. T.O.’s courage to come back from a broken leg and catch nine passes in the Super Bowl prevents him from becoming truly despised around here. Deep down, most of us respect him.
3) That thing looks gross.
