Carson Palmer signs Extension
 
Per press conference on 1360

6 year extension through 2014!

Carson Palmer that is, of the Bengals. Re-read and realized it didn't make a lot of sense if you weren't a Bengals fan and maybe not even then.

Adam Dunn should have been treated with as much respect.

Was going to say the same thing. Can we get Katie to run the Reds too?

Good deal! Carson is so humble; he was awesome during the press conference.

Hopefully Marvin is next (and Adam of course!).

Looks like my Carson Palmer jersey (bought 2 years ago) was a good investment. In the NFL it is a dangerous game to buy anyone's jersey.

Great news! :beerme:

ah, the NFL where contracts can be voided at anytime and salary bonuses paid up front.

I read on the Bengals website that some people in the industry say it could be the biggest contract ever in the NFL. Over the course of the next 9 years he should make around $118 million.

You mean like with one of those huge checks that Publisher's Clearinghouse uses?

The Reds should take notes...The Bengals don't use "small market" as an excuse.

The Bengals are doing things right......sounds weird doesn't it?

NFL and MLB system are 2 different beasts.

Everyone in the NFL has the same cash to spend.

And if Carson tanks it the Bengals can drop him without having to pay much.

He won't tank it.

But if he does..or suddenly becomes injury prone the Bengals won't be stuck with him like say the Reds might be.
