Donovan McNabb didn't know

Last Sunday, after Philadelphia tied the horrific Cincinnati Bengals 13-13, Eagles QB Donovan McNabb admitted he didn't know that regular season NFL games could end in a tie.




But the confusion didn't stop there, because McNabb then went on to get mixed up about the NFL playoff rules:

"In college, there are multiple overtimes, and in high school and Pop Warner. I never knew in the professional ranks it would end that way. I hate to see what would happen in the Super Bowl and the playoffs." (McNabb, quoted by the Associated Press)

I am sure that by now someone has pointed out to McNabb that post-season games are played to their completion, no matter how long it takes.
