off to the bar for the game. just wanted to say...
How come the Steelers have a few lines in their endzone, like from the 1940's? Can't they afford the paint?
Ha. They do. K who knows that...
They share the stadium with Pitt. I guess it's just easier than having to change it all the time from Steelers to Panthers. The other end zone says Pittsburgh.
Although, if either team has a few weeks off at home, they'll put the logo down at midfield. Otherwise it's blank.
Pitt's next home game is the day after thanksgiving against WVU.
Cheap. Other teams play at the Linc and they represent every home game. Go Eagles!!!
The rooney's cheap?? Never! Haha. With the money they save from field paint and only having a logo on one side of their helmet, they can pay off all of Ben's rape victims.
I was just about to say that I haven't seen the Steelers side of the endzone the whole game yet to compare the paint jobs, but they just scored their only touchdown of the night. lol
Haha. You know, the patriots were facing that end zone in the 2nd and 3rd quarter
ha ha oh yeah thats right(switch sides). I guess you caught me not watching much of the game. lol
Donovan McNabb agrees to five-year contract extension
By Jason Reid and Rick Maese
(Updated: 3:46 p.m.)
Donovan McNabb will be Mike Shanahan's quarterback beyond 2010, McNabb's agent confirmed.
"We're very happy about the situation," Fletcher Smith said. "We've been working on this for a while now, and we're obviously glad to get it done. Donovan's very happy about the situation because this is where he wanted to be all along.
"From the first day we spoke, I told you this is what Donovan wanted: to have a long career in Washington and end his career here. That never changed. And the fact that we could get this done tonight, with the Redskins playing the Eagles on Monday night and everything that goes with that, I couldn't have written a better script."
ESPN first reported the story Monday afternoon, citing the terms of the deal at five years and $78 million. A source familiar with the negotiations confirmed those numbers.
McNabb's current deal was set to expire at the conclusion of this season. Though both sides have maintained since the Easter day trade that brought McNabb to Washington from Philadelphia that an extension was coming, McNabb's Oct. 31 benching cast some doubt on the prospects. News reports have suggested that Shanahan wasn't pleased with McNabb's grasp of the offense.
However, the two sides talked throughout the bye week, and neither ever wavered about McNabb's future in Washington beyond 2010.
McNabb's new deal could be worth up to $88 million with incentives, according to ESPN's Michael Smith. Citing an unnamed source, the report stated that $40 million of the extension will be guaranteed.
Halfway through the Redskins' 16-game schedule, McNabb is the NFL's 28th-ranked passer with a 76.0 quarterback rating. He's averaging 246.4 yards per game (No. 13 in the NFL) and has seven touchdowns (tied for No. 26) and eight interceptions (tied for 10th most).
The Redskins (4-4) will rely on McNabb for a playoff push in the half of 2010. McNabb is due a $5 million base salary this season and a $6.2 million roster bonus.
Washington acquired McNabb from the Eagles on April 4 in exchange for a 2010 second-round draft pick (37th overall) and either a third- or fourth-round pick in 2011 based on McNabb's performance.
McNabb has been asked almost weekly about an extension this season, and he's repeatedly said that he hopes to play in Washington for many years. McNabb even mentioned at his introductory news conference that "I'm going to prepare myself to be here for years to come."
Shanahan's decision to bench him at Detroit two weeks ago apparently didn't change his mind.
The Redskins have also repeatedly said McNabb would be the team's franchise quarterback, though Shanahan said prior to the Lions' game that he wouldn't personally talk about an extension with McNabb during the season.
^that's crazy..i thought he was for sure out of washington after the whole grossman ordeal. can't wait to see him go up against the eagles tonight, vick vs mcnabb has the makings of a classic
