Eagles Extend Jon Dorenbos through 2019

Two roads diverged in a wood. One, was a long and illustrious multi-million dollar career as an NFL longsnapper, somehow. The other was an even more insane path of a magician on a TV talent show. Jon Dorenbos somehow took them both and they led to the same place: A three-year contract extension with the Eagles.
The birds locked up the Magic Man – presumably so the allure of the soon-to-be Las Vegas Raiders wouldn’t drag him away – for a stretch of time that could make him the longest tenured Eagle ever:
Jon Dorenbos has played 158 games as an Eagle. If he stays healthy & completes this contract, that goes to 213. Eagles record is Akers’ 188.

I patiently await a post later on how Dorenbos was able to get this contract, and then a huge backlash at Kyle for giving it away.
When he's not writing about sports here or ranting about them on Twitter, Jim is probably watching X-Files on Netflix or drinking a beer somewhere. Jim has nothing against hockey, it's just not his style. He once met Duce Staley at a Sixers game.
