Terrell Owens and Donovan McNabb hate eachother, and there is no reconciliation possible between these two. When Terrell Owens appeared on Shannon Sharpe's show, he called out Donovan McNabb and wants to fight him in a boxing ring.
TERRELL OWENS
CALLS OUT DONOVAN MCNABB
... 'I'll Knock Chunky Soup From Him'
Terrell Owens is ready to get into the celeb boxing game ... saying he wants a fight with Donovan McNabb -- and he's promising he'll knock his former QB out if it all goes down!!
T.O. joined Shannon Sharpe on the "Club Shay Shay" podcast this week and made the call-out ... making it clear time has NOT healed his feud with McNabb one bit.
"Shannon, I'll knock him out," Owens said ... "It'll be controlled anger. I'll be like a Navy SEAL. I'll be a Navy SEAL. 'Cause they're cool, calm under all conditions."
"But, there would be a fire burning inside of me."
Owens says the idea for the potential fight originated during a conversation with fans while he was ringside at Chad Ochocinco's boxing match on the undercard of the Logan Paul vs. Floyd Mayweather event in June.
"I had people asking me, 'T.O., you next? You next?!'" Owens said. "And, then I had one guy that was like, 'Yo. If you had to fight, who would you want to fight?'"
"I said, Donovan McNabb."
As for how violent the match would get ... Owens made it clear he would hold NOTHING back.
"I'd knock Chunky Soup from him," T.O. said. "From 2004! Trust me. All the heartache and all the stuff that I went through -- me trying to be the nice guy!"
Owens and McNabb have famously feuded for years ... with T.O. having previously said the beef between the two began while they were teammates with the Philadelphia Eagles.
In fact, T.O. has thrown shade McNabb's way nearly every chance he's had over the past few years ... even clowning Donovan's Hall of Fame candidacy to TMZ Sports in 2019.
If the McNabb tilt never happens, Owens says former NFL wideout Brandon Marshall has asked him to fight multiple times ... and T.O. told Sharpe he'd be in for that bout as well.
Comments
Of course, Terrell Owens saying that he will "Knock Chunky Soup from him" is a swipe at Donovan McNabb doing commercials for Campbell's Chunky Soup back in the 2000s.
Terrell needs money and some air time. If I’m McNabb I’d throw that out there and really annoy Owens 😂😂😂
I hope McNabb fires back at him, I love a good sports feud and this one has been going on for years!
It’s got legs!!
Like I said, this whole feud has been going on for years, here is a little bit about it's beautiful history.
Donovan McNabb still blames Terrell Owens for breaking up the Eagles after 2005 Super Bowl loss
Fresh off an AFC title win with the Chiefs, Andy Reid is about to coach in his first Super Bowl in 15 years. The last time he led his team to the big game was in 2005 with an Eagles squad that featured the likes of Donovan McNabb and Terrell Owens. That game served as the beginning of the end for those Eagles, who fell to the Patriots in Super Bowl XXXIX before things unraveled pretty quickly in a bizarre fallout.
Owens was at the center of that unraveling thanks to his offseason drama and preseason antics, and it sounds like McNabb still places a lot of blame on the wide receiver for the Eagles falling apart and not getting another shot at a title. In a recent interview with Bleacher Report, the former quarterback reflected on what happened following the Super Bowl loss and how Owens became a distraction thanks to a bitter contract dispute and some off-the-wall behavior in training camp.
Here's McNabb on how things dissolved:
"Then the offseason goes on and all of a sudden there's turmoil here and there, different conversations going back and forth, and we had to answer those questions instead of focusing on what we need to do in order to get back to where we were," said McNabb. "I thought that was the major distraction for us."
"[T.O.] is doing sit-ups, he's doing push-ups, he's playing basketball, he's ordering pizza for the people out there, and we're sitting there in training camp just like, 'You've got to be kidding me.' We're in our dorm rooms, and I'm just sitting there watching on TV.
"Brian Dawkins and Jeremiah Trotter were my roommates, and Dawk would come in like, 'What'd he do now?' I'm like, 'Take a look.' This is like "Days Of Our Lives". It was unbelievable. But that was something that kind of broke us up. That was the most frustrating for me, because I knew what we could do, and, if we decided to just come together, what we could accomplish."
Instead of finding continued success in Philadelphia, the 2005-2006 season would be stained with drama -- including Owens getting in physical altercations in the locker room and publicly stating that the team would be better off with Brett Favre as their quarterback rather than McNabb. Eventually, the Eagles suspended Owens for "conduct detrimental to the team" and then released him. Owens would go on to sign with one of the Eagles' biggest rivals in the Cowboys.
McNabb added that he and Owens still don't have a great relationship and don't speak to each other much, something that became rather clear when Owens responded to his former quarterback's comments via Twitter on Wednesday.
"Ohhhh s--t!!!! I can't wait 2 tell my story!!!" tweeted Owens in response to the Bleacher Report clip. "I'm bringing [popcorn], doing sit-ups and gonna eat a couple cans of 'CHUNKY SOUP!! This guy is a joke!! Talking bout I broke up the @Eagles!! Did u tell em that u vouched for the Eagles to pay Westbrook but NOT ME!! It's on!"
Owens unleashed several more tweets on the subject, calling McNabb a "jealous ass" and criticizing the quarterback for a number of reasons -- including throwing up in the huddle during the Super Bowl loss to New England, as well as McNabb's multiple DUI arrests.
T.O. alleges to have dirt and stories on McNabb that he can't wait to share in response to the quarterback's comments about his role in the Eagles' collapse, so it seems like this story could just be beginning.
I remember the vomit in the huddle in the 4th quarter. I knew at that point McNabb couldnt handle the stage and the game was over
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
Yes, I remember the McNabb puking incident, of course McNabb swears up and down that he never puked in the Super Bowl, here is his quote in 2016 about the famous incident:
One thing McNabb simply won’t tolerate: The persistent perception that he threw up during the fourth quarter of the Eagles’ loss to the Patriots in Super Bowl XXXIX in 2005.
“No, I didn’t puke. It’s unfortunate that we still talk about this 11 years after playing in the Super Bowl. But, no. That did not happen and hopefully we can stop talking about it. Once again, go watch the game tape."
It's very interesting because McNabb's ex-teammate from the Eagles Lito Sheppard says it did in fact happen, but it was when he was walking up to the line of scrimage.
Lito Sheppard says McNabb puked during Super Bowl
One of the great mysteries of the modern age involves not a grassy knoll by something that may or may not have been deposited on the grass crown of a football field.
As legend has it, Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb vomited during crunch time of Super Bowl XXXIX. McNabb has vehemently denied it. Some teammates have said it didn’t happen.
Now, former teammate Lito Sheppard has supplied an eyewitness account. Via Philly.com, Sheppard told WIP radio on Monday morning that he saw McNabb throw up.
“Yes,” Sheppard said. “He did.”
Sheppard says it didn’t happen in the huddle, but as McNabb was walking to the line of scrimmage. Sheppard also said it was “subtle.”
If it happened, it surely was subtle. Because it escaped the notice of any of the many cameras aimed at the action.
Whether he did or didn’t, McNabb clearly seemed to have a lack of urgency at a time when the Eagles were trailing by 10 points without a lot of time left in the game.
Oh wow, just wow, Donovan McNabb's ex-teammate Eagles wide receiver Freddie Mitchell says McNabb ruined his career pretty much on purpose.
In this interview with Skip Bayless back in 2017, Terrell Owens elaborates on what caused the feud between him and McNabb.
Terrell Owens reveals the incident with Donovan McNabb that sparked their ‘feud’
Terrell Owens joined Wednesday's episode of Undisputed to discuss his issues with the Hall of Fame voting process, the perception that he's a bad teammate, and his history of problems with various franchises throughout his career.
In a conversation with Skip Bayless that got contentious at times, Owens addressed his first season with the Eagles, and talked about the on-field incident with Donovan McNabb that was the beginning of the end.
Skip Bayless: “You go to Philly and you sign another big contract. What was it? Seven years, $49 million? And everything was peachy-keen from the start, because it was you and Donovan [McNabb]. You were roommates and soulmates all through that first training camp. And you know what happened, it started to fall apart with Donovan.
T.O.: “There was a game, I can’t remember if it was… we were playing the Giants or the Browns or whatever the case may be, but throughout the course of practice, there were designed, specific plays for myself. Ran it over and over. Knew it was going to work in the game. Ran that play to a T. Open, wide open, I didn’t get the ball. I could hear my teammates from the sideline, ‘why didn’t he throw the ball?’
So I go back to the huddle and I was like ‘dude, I was open.’ And you know what his response was to me? ‘Shut the F up.’
That was disrespectful. I’ve never disrespected any of my teammates to that degree. And I didn’t make a stink about it on the field, I let it ride. I didn’t argue about it, i said ‘cool.’ But I went in the locker room and addressed him after the game, man-to-man. Knowing the things that had happened in San Francisco, I didn’t want that to happen in Philly.
Went up to him, addressed him, told him I didn’t appreciate that and don’t let that happen again. For whatever reason, I don’t know how he took it, he didn’t like it. And that’s how things started to unravel.
So these are things that you aren’t made aware of that I’ve tried to do to make myself a better person and a player based on things that happened in San Francisco.”
Terrell Owens: I tried to change after what happened in San Francisco
Skip Bayless: “Is it fair to say you and Donovan then just fell completely apart?”
T.O.: “I don’t know what happened with Donovan. Trust me, when we got in between those lines, I did my job. I didn’t necessarily have to talk to him on the football field, practice or whatever. For me, it wasn’t an issue.
As the season rolled along, it was people that brought it to my attention that it was an issue. To go into Lincoln Financial Field, do what I did, have 70,000 people chant your name, ’T.O., T.O.' Maybe that got under his skin. But, for me, I didn’t have anything personally against Donovan, because I went there to achieve the goal of helping them get to the Super Bowl.”
Terrell Owens: Ask my coaches what type of teammate I am
Shannon Sharpe: “So you’re saying from the moment that Donovan addressed you in front of your teammates, and you having a conversation with him after the game, that was the beginning of the end of your relationship?”
T.O.: “I think it was, but again, I tried to be the better person. Unbeknownst to you and others that are getting sideline information.”
Skip Bayless: “I’ve heard Donovan’s story straight from his lips, and it’s upside down from your story.”
T.O.: “You can ask the teammates. You can go to Philly, you can ask the some of the staff. Again, even from Ray Sherman, who coached me in Dallas. He basically has said ‘tell them to call [me].’ Talk to him. These are the guys that have coached me. If you want to know the truth, call him."
T.O. on his relationship with Eagles coaches:
Skip Bayless: “OK, but the head coach in Philly and the coordinator in Philly, you began to have issues with and feud with Andy Reid and Brad Childress, right? You had some issues with them.”
T.O.: “Andy Reid, I love Andy Reid. Never going to say anything bad, best coach I ever had.”
Skip Bayless: “Brad Childress, not so much?”
T.O.: “For whatever reason, he probably had his perception prior to me coming there, so again, it is what it is.”
T.O. on coming back from injuries to play in the Super Bowl:
Skip Bayless: “So you didn’t love your contract after two years, your seven-year deal, and you began to have issues with management. And it got so bad in Philadelphia that Terrell Owens, again at the peak of his powers, got suspended and then deactivated. They just basically sent you home, and then the next year they released you, right? That’s a pretty ugly end to what looked like a fairy tale Philly story.”
T.O.: “Well, you know Skip, it’s sad to say I went there, I played, I did beyond what was expected, I went to the Super Bowl, I played with two screws and a plate in my ankle, broken fibula. Played in that game, and guys like yourself call me selfish for playing in that game.”
Skip Bayless: “That’s because three of your prominent teammates said you forced your way back in.”
T.O.: “What force? How can I force my way into the game?”
Skip Bayless: “That you just weren’t ready to play and the Patriots knew it and you were no real threat to them, and yet Donovan force-fed you the ball. What’d you have, nine for 122?”
T.O.: “That’s force-feeding me the ball? If they would have given me a couple more we probably would have won, Skip. I can’t force my way into a game. If I wasn’t medically cleared to play or they didn’t think I was ready to play, they wouldn’t have put me on the football field. I went to my doctor, he didn’t clear me. I had to sign a waiver from the Eagles to play in that game. Come on, man, are you serious? But according to [the media], I was ‘selfish’ to play in that game.”
I bet Owens would wreck McNabb, Owens is in elite shape still and is mentally ill. Not an easy combo to deal with lol
Yes, he stays in shape, he recently said he could go back into the NFL if he wanted to. I hope these two mix it up, there's been bad blood for a longtime and it needs to be settled, in the ring, while I watch!
Here is the video of Terrell Owens talking about fighting McNabb, he wants McNabb bad man!
