Definitely true. But the big problem with Owens wasn't completely that he was an ego maniac, but he called out the front office for not spending the money to get the team to win, so he feeling that he was the best receiver in the game, was having his time wasted on a team that had no intention on doing what it takes to actually win a championship. And time has shown that he was right. As well as him calling out McNabb and saying he can't function under pressure.
