PHILADELPHIA -- The Rev. Jesse Jackson called the Philadelphia Eagles' punishment of Terrell Owens "much too severe."
Jackson said in a statement released Friday that Owens could have been more professional when he publicly complained about his contract, his team and the Eagles' organization.
But Jackson said Owens' suspension without pay for four games and deactivation for the rest of the season is "much too severe for the charge" and hurts the athlete's NFL career at its height.
The civil rights activist said the level of punishment could have been warranted if Owens had been caught shaving points, selling drugs, carrying a gun or fighting fans without sufficient restraint.
"This does not warrant a one-year ban from the game," Jackson said, adding that the Eagles should release Owens to the open market or free agency if they no longer want to associate with him.
Ralph Nader, a consumer activist and former presidential candidate, has already called for the suspension to be rescinded.
Owens was suspended last week after he said in an interview that the Eagles showed "a lack of class" for not publicly recognizing his 100th career touchdown catch, and that the team would be better off with Green Bay's Brett Favre as quarterback. He has since apologized.

The PC Answer:
The Reverand Jesse Jackson has decided to throw in his comments because he see's an injustice being done to a great African American Athlete, as well as a great African American human being.
The Truth:
Stupid **** is just trying to get his name attached to something else because he hasn't been in the news lately.

Jesse Jackson gives some interesting crimes for the level of punishment yet apparently being involved in murder is OK because this is the same **** that back Ray Ray.

Because they can and because it works.
You don't see anyone playing the old people's card or the children's card or the gay card now do ya!

thats my point , this isnt about who is right as far as Jackson is concerned , this is all about race , I would think the world of T.O. if he just told Jackson to shut the hell up and go bother someone else ..........
And you know damn well that if this was a white dude that recieved this punishment he would'nt say a word. He probably say to himself... 'serves the cracka right' :)

If a white cop isn't beating a black man, Jesse, and Al and all the other shakedown artists would have nothing to do.....imagine how their income and quality of life would rastically change if these "injustices" they claim are systemic in America were ever discovered to not be true?
