why no extension?

He died a while ago, and it was a highly underrated show with a phenomenal theme song. But that's not why

Google News Mr. Belvedere and that should give you a clue

The theme song cracks me up every time

Streaks on the china...

and if he hits a brick wall? lol. I mean what if he does not pan out as good as they thought this yr 2010? Now they are stuck paying him 12.25 mil if he sucks donkey d!#ks.

That was actually a smart move by Philly. This way he doesn't spend his first season as a starter in a contract year, and 2 yrs, $12.25M is a pittance compared to the salaries of the other three starters in the NFC East. And if he doesn't work out, they don't owe him anything past 2011. Another smart, shrewd move by Andy Reid IMO. Only a 1 year extension for an unproven QB.

I don't see any reason to worry about a McNabb extension. It will get done. The last thing McNabb wants to do is play out this year without an extension and risk getting hurt which will cost him the last big payday of his career. And with the threat of a labor dispute after this season...he will sign a contract before he takes a live snap.

time to start worrying. since Favre "retired" again, the skins need to get this done. don't want McNabb leaving for Minn.

and this....

If he doesnt get resigned, franchise tag needs to go on for next season. As far as I'm concerned, we have McNabb on a two year deal, and will franchise him if we need to do so. I understand that will be a hefty price tag, but I think thats a no brainer. If Minnestoa wants to take him at that point, they can give us the two first rounders in return (I think thats the compensation).

Don't think that he'll do that but like the guy who covered it said, he may have wished it happened that way.

Sal Pal continues to be a joke.. The Redskins will slap the franchise tag on McNabb so quickly it will make Pal's toupee spin. He's just a bitter Eagles fan..

Hogwash.


We could end up finishing the year better than the Vikings, something I would not have said last week with the assumption Favre would be back. Now Sidney Rice may need hip surgery.

McNabb is buying into the Redskins as a system and winner. You can tell he's excited about being here. He'll sign.

The labor issues are what's preventing the contract...and it's happening to many players other than McNabb.



Bruce Allen doesn't agree with the ESPN fairy tales:

D.C. Sports Bog - Bruce Allen says McNabb will be a Redskin "for years" (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/dcsportsbog/2010/07/bruce_allen_says_mcnabb_will_b.html)

What's Sal is saying is true that McNabb's preferred choice was Minnesota, and it's a legit opinion that he has (has had for a while) that McNabb will sign with Minnesota as a free-agent next year. I happen to disagree, but it makes sense what he is saying.

However, as I said in another thread, all that has really nothing to do with Favre "retiring" today because it's not like McNabb is going to up and leave the Redskins now and it's not like anyone really thought Favre was playing more than this upcoming year.

Statement is being blown out of proportion
