sportscurmudgeon-
In defense of the legal experts (myself included - seasons 1&2 of Law and Order on DVD) who made the statements regarding Owens's status, the arbitrator never made a decision in the case - all parties settled. We can presume that the outcome would have granted Owens free agent status, but we can't verify that. We can also say that, regardless of the final outcome, months of bad press and strife could have been avoided if David Joseph had bothered to read any correspondence regarding his one client. I find it difficult to believe that Terrell Owens couldn't have made a better deal for himself if he had been on the open market, and had multiple teams bidding for his services. That's why I thought Joseph should've been canned - incompetence comes in many forms, and I feel he acted incompetently.
