Still can't figure out how he didn't know this...interesting, that he'd cop to not knowing it in the postgame interview as well...

Just saw this on Monday Night Countdown.

Carelessness and stupidity. No excuse. You are a professional football player. It is your job to know the rules.

Apparently, McNabb wasn't the only Eagles player that did not know.

I'm not sure how anyone could play football, follow the game, and not know that games can end in a tie.

McNabb mentioned that in Pop Warner and College they continue to play, but did he never watch an NFL game when he was a little kid? Can he seriously have not noticed that teams have had ties?

It's just very weird.

He / they should know from playing Madden, if nothing else...right?

I don't get it. What do think the third column in the standings was for "WIN" "LOSES" "DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN"?

He basically embarrassed himself and his team in front of the whole nation.
