i hope his entire family gets aids, and then they find a cure for aids, and as they drive to the doctor's office to get the cure administered, a drunk driving truck driver t-bones their minivan with a gas tanker and they all burn to death.

I don't know, Rome. The man seems reasonable intelligent.

Injected with ebola, choked with piano wire, electrocuted, sodomized with a barbed-wire covered baseball bat, and then forced to listen to Joe Buck broadcast an entire taterskins/Cowboys game.

QuoteNFC East blog
ESPN.com's Matt Mosley writes about all things NFC East in his division blog.

• Blog network: NFL Nation

A revision in the five-year, $32 million extension the Philadelphia Eagles running back signed last August indicated the $7 million option bonus due in 2010 wasn't exercised by the team, according to multiple sources. By not exercising the $7 million bonus, Westbrook's contract ends in 2010.

The complicated extension, which reportedly was 60 pages long, had supercedes and bonuses, but it gave the team the right to trigger a clause that would extend the deal from 2011 to 2013. Under the new deal, Westbrook's base salary increased from $4 million to $5.85 million this season and goes to $7.25 million in 2010. His cap numbers increase to $13.25 million in 2009 and $10.59 million in 2010.

Westbrook turned 30 on Sept. 2.

Smart, I guess.

so their caking him off for the uncapped year?

Seabiscuit36 · September 16, 2009, 02:34:55 PM

Does anyone know anything about this? I'm surprised Westbrook hasnt said anything yet, im guessing they're working on something for the uncapped year, but i have no clue

QuoteThumbs down

To ESPN for its misleading report on the Eagles' decision not to activate the $7 million option bonus in the contract extension that Brian Westbrook signed last year. John Clayton wrote, "Brian Westbrook's long-term security isn't as long as he had anticipated." Uh, actually, it's exactly as long as he had anticipated. The option bonus was only put into Westbrook's extension so that the deal would comply with the league's cap-accounting rules. Both he and his agent, Todd France, were well aware of that and had no problem with it. As was pointed out in the Daily News on Wednesday, a source close to Westbrook acknowledged that Westbrook and France viewed the final 3 years of the deal, which were voided when the option bonus wasn't picked up, as "dummy years." As in make-believe. When Westbrook signed the extension, he knew he would be a free agent after the 2010 season.
