If the Tuna can't handle him...he'll probably never play anywhere again.

T.O.'s ego will alway get in the way of things, unfortunately. He is supremely talented; but football (and all of sports) is more than just talent. It is about character too--and T.O. falls short in that area a bit.
Hopefully he will change--I'm a Cowboys fan--but I am not holding my breath!

i dont think TO is that bad of a guy, i think that the media is really blowing it all out of proportion, and if the media didnt make a huge deal out of the thing in Philly, TO would still be an eagle today and he would be getting ready for another all star year. but, it hasnt happened like that and i think that if theres any coach that will keep the media from blowing everything that TO says up into a huge controversy, that is the big tuna. parcells will keep everything alright- just look what he did with Keyshawn after his stint with Tampa.

t.o. is the personification of whats wrong with sports today. its not about hard work, drive, loyalty and talent. its about money and public relations. sad. anyway, i'm a philly fan, and i believe t.o. tore the soul out of the eagles. he's got talent , to be sure, but no ethics. i get why dallas took him, but i would've rathered he never found a new home. whatever. he will behave this year- next year the crap will start.

If you are a pro football coach it's part of the job description to put up with jerks. Aside from playing well the main thing is that he avoids intentionally hurting team morale and stays out of trouble with the law.

Coachs can handle him if they want. You have to remember the cost-benefit Ratio. If you sit him that is a game he doesn't play. So that is your cost. On the other hand you may get through if you do it enough. You just have to say well it isn't worth dealing with him like that.

I think there is a coach that can handle him but he is always going to think he can do what ever he wants

No T.O. always complains and boasts the coaches cant take it.

If anyone can handle TO's attitude, it's Parcells. Parcells has attitude as well. Two big egos clashing in Dallas--I predict Parcells comes out on top.
And for those of you who think the media blew all that stuff out of proportion in Philly---the media didn't bench TO--Reid did.

He'll always be a self-centered jerk...I don't think anyone can change that about him... His behavior isn't gonna change just b/c he wears a star on his helmet instead of eagle wings... I don't think it's a matter of any coach handling him...it's more like tolerating him...

umm yes, look who he's playing for now. Bill Parcels is no joke and he will let T.O. know that every chance he gets.
