Reactions to Tony Romo's announced six-year contract extension, which comes with $55 million guaranteed and the potential to be worth $108 million in total, have been mixed. It appears some people are confused by what seems like a reward for an underwhelming career.

A bit too immediately, it seems; because McNabb didn't quite have that right. But Hugh Douglas still agreed.

My bad everyone it 55 million guaranteed. It's a total of 108 million, wow

It's a curious deal; one that, by continuing a trend of players not perceived as 'elite' receiving elite amounts of money, quite easily conjures the final scene from Trading Places.
