More Whining from Westbrook

I wish I missed the ESPN Westbrook crying. 

Did you know Westbrook feels...ultimately disrespected?

Not much really.  I didn't think he was really bitching at all.  He was basically just saying that he shouldn't be measured by 100 yard games or 1000 yard seasons because he's asked to do so much in the offense and only gets about 12-15 carries per game.  He wants a long term contract and while I usually support the front offices hard nosed negetiating I think they are being kind of stupid on this one.  Westy is a catalyst of this offense and everyone knows it.  Last Sunday was a perfect example of it.  The Chiefs focused their entire defense on stopping him which opened up everything for the receivers and tight ends. 

The Eagles need to sign him during the bye week.  Pay him what he wants even if it's a little overpriced because their aren't many backs in the league who can do everything that he can.

Westbrook has been totally kickass for the past two weeks.

yeah, they should cut him, he sucks

[rjs246]

Did I say that, assbag? I said he's been really productive during the last two games. and shouldn't be whining and bitching about his contract while he isn't producing on the field.

[rjs246]

McNabb: Westbrook deserves new contract

By LES BOWEN

IRVING, Texas - Donovan McNabb has dropped the odd hint here or there, but it hasn't seemed to help.

Brian Westbrook still doesn't have a long-term contract to replace that 1-year, $1.43 million restricted free-agent tender he's playing under. So now, McNabb is dropping the subtlety.

In an ESPN feature yesterday about Westbrook, McNabb said if it was up to him, he would pay Westbrook what he wants.

"I've said he's the ultimate weapon," McNabb said after yesterday's game. "What I've said, I feel he should be rewarded for the things he does for this offense... I feel that he deserves whatever he's asking for. We demand a lot of him."

It will be interesting to see how McNabb's friend Terrell Owens reacts to this. Owens, of course, wanted McNabb's support in his bid to get his 7-year contract revised after one season. McNabb declined to get involved, saying other players' contracts are none of his business.

Of course, Westbrook is making, and has made, a lot less money than Owens. And, unlike Owens, his deal is up after this season. But it just barely seems possible such subtleties will elude T.O. It probably won't escape his notice that McNabb spoke out on behalf of another client of McNabb's agent, Fletcher Smith.

That's farging fantastic.  From bad to worse.

The first order of business during the bye week should be to get some of these contract issues resolved.

[Father Demon]

That was a mistake, Donnie....
