21 million a year, wow. What does Romo make a year on average?

Off-topic (not really): College economics. Should it be a mandatory core high school curriculum course? Discuss.

Eli isn't overpaid and the reason is simple, there aren't enough guys to do that job. Eli is a good enough QB to win a Super Bowl, it's happened twice. The Giants don't want to have to go back to the Dave Brown and Danny Cannell years, so when you have a QB you can win with you keep him and pay him his money. The going rate for QB's is around 20 million a year. Eli might not be Romo, but he's solid enough to win with under the right conditions, and he's a genuine iron man, he has something like 160 starts in a row - I don't think he's ever missed a game due to injury in his career.

All that said, I want to make the Giants regret it before the ink is even dry. Harassing Eli into about 6 interceptions on Sunday night should do it.

I know 3 things about Eli.

The luckiest QB i have ever seen
We bring out the best in him.
And he is one tough dude that is always on the field. Pretty amazing actually.

That post should be enshrined in Canton -- it's perfect.

My mother always told me,"No sense, no feeling." Maybe he always plays because he's just too dumb to know he's hurt.
